That shouldn't be a problem. It's one of those things that if you bring it up it can become a problem, if you leave it along till asked then you can have it repaired if asked by the CO. One rule that I advocate is to not volunteer information. If asked, then answer truthfully. If they miss it no harm done and besides that is such a small item that it will not get you a denial.

thank you  sooo much   Greenbaum...youre  a gem !!!!

Hi, I have a question. So in Hank's website, the letter/email from NVC he is mentioning to forward to our fiance is the one i attached below?? I just received it... Just want to make sure... 

 

 

Yes. You should move over to the sub-forum for the Philippine's and ask your questions specific to the Philippines. And Hank, I and others there to help answer your questions. Asking here may not give you the answer you will need. Most here are trying to get their arms around their country's requirements.

 

Ignore my question from the post above as I see you are familiar with what to do next..

So what do we need to bring for medical? Any history of vaccination required or something else?

I'd love to help you but:

 

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline or your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine your Embassy. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Thanks

After getting notified and receiving your NOA2 send an email to NVC asking for them to email both you and your fiancé if any updates occur. In the past they have replied when your case was received from USCIS, another when your case number has been assigned and when your case is being sent out to your Embassy without you having to make any further queries by phone. Here is where you send this information to:

 

Email address: NVCINQUIRY@state.gov

Subject: Your receipt #

Body: Petitioner's Complete Name Birthday ; Beneficiary's Complete Name Birthday

 

 

Or use the online form

Or use the online form

 

https://secureforms.travel.state.gov/ask-nvc.php

 

https://secureforms.travel.state.gov/ask-nvc.php

 

 

And you need to call NVC and you will need the Petitioner's and Beneficiaries full name and date of birth.

 

Call 603-334-0700 or 603-334-0888 Be prepared for a wait. Tell the operator that you are requesting a case number for your K-1. They will ask for the receipt number located on the left top of your I-797 (NOA2) form. Then he/she will either tell you that they have not received your case or you will be asked for the names and date of birth. If they don't have the case, you will be told it can take 30 to 45 days for them to receive it and to wait however many days/weeks and call back. That's a pad answer so ignore it. You can call back the next day or as often as you want. NVC's hours are 7am to 12 am (midnight) eastern time. Monday through Friday except Federal Holidays. Calling early at 7 am on the dot will get you in the fastest or calling late the lines to be open most often.

 

When you have your case number, enter it here https://ceac.state.g...ker/status.aspx and it will tell you one of three things... At NVC, In Transit, or Ready.

Just to let you know incase you weren’t aware...

 

-The phone number you supplied for the interview is actually the phone number for the medical. I can’t find a phone number for the embassy for booking the interview at the moment. 

-And the link for the notice of readiness is broken. I’m pretty sure you don’t have to do that for London anymore anyway 😊

Thank you.

Someone else about a month or so ago had the same issue. Went to the interview and had no problems. Don't believe you are going to be the first one with this issue. Co's are wise to what the printer is capable in printing documents. I wouldn't worry about it.

Is this ok for POE as well, in case this is how her name gets written on the visa itself?

Stop wasting time calling. And NO there is not phone number from the Philippines. Use the following. When your case number is assigned you will get an email shortly. IT WORKS!

 

After getting notified and receiving your NOA2 send an email to NVC asking for them to email both you and your fiancé if any updates occur.

Ok I will do this. Thank you!

Can applicant (foreign fiancé) also show their own account statement to help with I-134. If they have more than enough money to support themselves?

 

Also, if I just got a new job saying I make three times the poverty level in California but only starting two days ago and with a tax return not making above it last year should we still be fine? Do I just bring the signed work contract?

 

If not, my mom is being the joint sponsor but she files jointly with my dad, does she put him as a dependant on the form? 

 

I know greenbaum has vaguely answered some of these questions but I would like clarification please?  thank u!

No, applicants funds cannot be used toward I134 income
