Hi

Congratulations ZAKI that your interview came on MARCH 29, 2007. Wish you good luck i just say u that u had to que in a yellow bar that is for immigration cases and the blue bar is for visit visa cases. Be there at time at 800am at the embassy. The immigration officer will take the appointment letter from all those immigrant cases. They will call your names many times like first you had to deposit your fees then they call you to check your papers and anything if they ask u to bring a document as they ask me to. I wish you best of luck for your interview and many many good wishes from me and other friends from VJ members here.

There is one thing i want to ask u people that they gave me paper of AP. They also gave me the pink slip and the consulor officer a blonde lady told me when i ask her about the AP, that we want to check if u had any criminal record and i ask her again how long it takes and she replied me again it takes month or months.

What the pink slip stand for becoz there was another friend whom i met on the medical day and he also had the interview same on MARCH 13, 2007 and he was also given the same letter.

I went to american express and ask them this and the lady said u are approved but u had to wait until your clearance come i m still confused so will u pls tell me what PINK SLIP stand for?

Thanks

Thanks, i have a question, how much i need to pay on interview day with IR1 category. I already paid 380 dollars to NVC. The lady from consulate told me to bring medical report only as other papers they already have.

I only have now wedding and some other pictures after marriage, some chat logs, and phone cards for my proof and school and diploma certificates as well. Are these proofs are sufficient ??

Thanks

All these evidences you mentioned are good enough. I dont think you need to pay at the embassy. I paid $380 for DS-230 at NVC and my wife didnt have to pay any fees at the embassy.

My wife is finally arrived on Friday on K3 visa. Now I have to file I-1485 and I-765 (Employment) am I right? For I-485 what I have to choose Under PART2 Applicate type category? She is on k3.

Also she cannot apply Social security? am I right?

Yes, you are correct and when you write in category put K3 as her category.

Also she cannot apply Social security? am I right?

I went to DMV yesterday for ID but they told me they need proff of resident (any type of letter mailed to her on this address) and then copy of passport they will send this to Richmond and after that she is eligible for ID. Is this is right?

Social security takes at least two weeks to get the information of them entering the USA from their POE if they checked this on their application. You can go to the office and then ask for her a card.

Go to www.dmv.org and check on your state for the driver's license requirements. I know we had a hard time getting one for Ishteaq. He needed his greencard, his ss card, and mail showing his address in the states.

Please answer me fast because I want to file her paperworks before Thursday and u all know all application fee;s jumping to 3 times from April 1st.

Thanks ALL

Congratulations on your reunion and good luck on the AOS processing.

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.

Just an update after coming back from medical.

I went for medical today in Islamabad. I reach 9:30 am, after filling one form then give blood and then X ray. After waiting 2 hours lady doctor call me and checked every thing throat ,eyes, ears then she told me to put your shirt off and she checked my arms, legs, feet, neck and after that check my blood pressure.

Again wait for 20 mins and male doctor call me in his room he told me to put your shirt and pant off :wacko: and lay down on the bench. He checked every single joint of my body and ask questions if you were in hospital, any major disease etc. At the end there were 3 shots on my arms and thats it.

That was my medical interview.

Thanks
