For those of you that are used to using CV according to the format in Argentina and not a resume in US.  I studied business with a concentration in marketing and I help with making resumes and coaching for interviews when it comes to the US format, interviews, etc.  Not trying to sell services or anything.  But, if I can be of any assistance, please let me know.

 

Not to toot my own horn, but everyone I ever helped landed their desired jobs. :)

I was thinking on doing a master here but now it seems I have one already according to the US educational system. In case I want to do another one or a PhD I can presenting this document. 
Through this company And evaluation I was able to see also how many credits I have and my GPA. According to my husband this are good information to have for job searching and interviews. 

How did you send your transcript to Wes? It says there that you either have the university send it in a sealed envelope or you send it in a sealed envelope. If it's sent by us, do we have to ask the university to have it sealed and stamped when we pick it up? I'm asking because my wife is confused about her sending it over to Wes and is not sure if every foreign university delivers it in an envelope.

 

Thanks in advance!

Escribo en español para expresarme mejor. 
Mande el analítico en sobre sellado como ellos dicen en las instrucciones. Le tuve que pedir a mi mamá que vaya a mi universidad y pida el sobre con membrete. Una vez que estaba la copia del analítico adentro, el decano lo cerró, selló y firmó la solapa de cierre del sobre.

Mi mamá me trajo ese sobre cuando vino a visitarme en enero, sino también podes usar DHL y que llegue a tu casa y de ahí vos agregas el título y la traducción y de ahí lo mandas a WES. 
Yo pagué la opción de 160 dólares donde me dice también cuántos créditos tengo y mi GPA.

A ver si entendi bien. El analitico obviamente solo se manda en espanol porque tiene que ir sellado. Cuando me hablas de la traduccion, te referis a la traduccion del titulo nada mas, correcto? Vos al titulo de casualidad lo tuviste que apostillas y demas? y el analitico tiene que ir apostillado o algo por el estilo?

 

Ahora, el tramite que te hace WES es algo que necesitarias de cualquier modo si quisieras ir a una facultad Norte Americana para que te revalidaran el titulo? O uno podria optar por que una universidad de aca te hiciera la revalida o por WES?

 

Yo la semana que viene iba a llamar de cualquier manera a una universidad de aca y plantearles la situacion de mi esposa, a ver que me aconsejan hacer. Por ahi lo de WES hay que hacerlo si o si como primer paso como extranjero.

 

Muchas Gracias!

No hice apostillar nada. 
Una copia del analítico en español va en el sobre sellado. Las traducciones del título y del analítico no hace falta que vayan en el sobre sellado, van aparte. Lo que mandas a WES es el sobre sellado, copia del titulo y las traducciones certificadas. 
Según mi investigación, con lo que te da WES tu título ya está validado en US tanto para buscar trabajo como para seguir estudiando. Mire muchos videos de YouTube ylei muchas reseñas de gente que lo utilizaron para ambos casos.
Incluso en mi grupo de running hay una argentina que es fonoaudiologa. Ni bien se vino hace diez años hizo el mismo trámite en WES y con eso validó su título y buscó trabajo. 
Ahora estoy averiguando como es el tema de la matrícula pero es para más adelante. 
Por ahora se que vale mi título acá en créditos y el GPA. Recién empiezo a buscar trabajo y tengo una entrevista la semana que viene así que si me llegan a dar más información te escribo.

Ah buenisimo entonces, muchas gracias por aclarar!. Que bueno con lo de la entrevista de trabajo, ojala salga todo bien! Conta despues por aca como te fue.

 

Tema matricula, por lo que estuvimos averiguando aca varia de acuerdo el estado en el que vivas. Esta la pagina del national board of architects y ahi te dice que requisitos necesitas para matricularte. Pero mi esposa por ahora va a hacer lo que vos hiciste, tratar de revalidar todo para poder conseguir trabajo en algun estudio o algo asi, y despues veremos para lo de la matricula.

 

Muchas gracias por compartir la info!

Hello!  For those of you whose parents have visited, I know they have to prove that they can pay for themselves, that the trip have definite dates, and that they have ties to the country.  Are there any other requirements?  Also, how much would they need to show to increase the chances of being approved?

Had biometrics appt this afternoon in Brooklyn We showed our appt letter and had to fill out a short form with biographical info (name, country of birth, race, etc). We then gave back the form, letter, and his passport and got a number. My husband waited about an hour for his number to be called but then the actual fingerprinting and photo took just a few minutes. He got the appt letter back with a stamp saying biometrics complete, signed and dated by the USCIS worker who took them. 

 

Does anyone know how long it takes for the case status to be updated that his biometrics are complete? Ours still says case received.

Si depende el estado. Por ejemplo acá en NY tenes que rendir un examen, pero yo por ahora también voy a esperar. Algunos trabajos te pagan el material de estudio y los fees del trámite así que también por eso es bueno darle un tiempo y ver me parece.

Good!

 I personally never got that update. It went from case received on July, to RFE on September and to case Ready to schedule interview on January

My parents came in January but They had the visa already from 5 years ago. The officer at customs didn’t ask anything about family members in the US. 
Something that help proving you are not overstaying is job paychecks ’recibo de sueldo’, prove that you have a house or rental agreement or family members to take care of.

My mother-in-law does not have a job, since she takes care of her mom and gets paid by a neighbor to take care (part-time) of a toddler. So, we would be going the “someone will pay my expenses for me”. But, she does have a house and her living mother. Now, my sister-in-law only has that she is attending school. So, that’s why we are asking. Would it be worth trying to apply? We just want to spend the holidays together.

Ok, we just got NOA (again) for AP stating they received our application and will use the existing biometrics to review. What? We got combo card already. Should we call USCIS?
