No. You can't pay online visa fee. You have to pay visa fee US Embassy. I just got this message in this morning when I sign in with CEAC # and Invoice #.

The National Visa Center has forwarded your file to the US Embassy/Consulate where you are applying for an immigrant visa. Any other required fees must now be paid directly at the Embassy or Consulate at the time of your interview.

Please contact the US Embassy/Consulate if you have any questions. You can find the contact information by consulting this list of US Embassy/Consulate websites.

I will find a job within a month. I don't have any family member in USA. I am only one who live in US. I have a friend who can co- sponsor if I ask to him. how about a friend? Can he co-sponsor ?

Oh no. So sorry to hear. Although I am not quite familiar with the procedure, I have read posts on here where people have co-sponsors. Can you ask your family or relatives to co-sponsor for you perhaps?

Sure, I will keep you updated as I have more info. Hopefully soon.

Federal Holiday in the USA today so no progress today...

Today is: Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the USA

The third Monday in January marks Martin Luther King Jr. Day., a Federal holiday in the United States marking the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr. King was the most prominent leader of the civil rights movement in the United States. King famously used the tactic of nonviolent activism to protest racial discrimination in federal and state law during the 1950’s and 60’s. King was also an American pastor, activist, and humanitarian. King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1964 for his tremendous work in combating racial inequality through nonviolence and peaceful protests.

King was sadly assassinated in 1968 at the age of 39. His legacy lives on in the USA and around the world. In addition to the establishment of a national holiday in King’s honor, he was also posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal.

So wait more approvals for tomorrow guys..

Congratulations Ko Zaw,

For me, mine was approved on Oct 29th. NVC processed my paperwork on Nov 20th. By Nov 24th, US Embassy in Yangon had already typed up their instructional sheet (found out that later on). I e-mailed them on Dec 3rd inquiring about my paperwork and they replied within a few hours saying my fiancee can pick them up.

My suggestion for you is after two weeks from now, start checking status of your case by going to the website below. Your case number starts with RNG******. Make sure you select "IMMIGRANT VISA (IV)". Once it shows "READY", e-mail US Embassy. They will let you know when to pickup.

She will need to do the following....

1) Fill out DS-160 online and print out confirmation page.

2) Fill out DS-157, DS-158, and Additional Page. They will provide her with the forms.

3) Need 2 passport size photos.

4) Original birth certificate, original notarized translation, and copy of each documents.

5) Original marriage/divorce/death from previous marriage (if any).

6) Original police certificate in Burmese and original notarized translation certificate.

7) Affidavit of Support I-134, which includes your W2, 1040, bank balance dating 1 yr, current employment letter. Also get letters from your bank. Ask them for verification letter.

8) Any court records (if any).

Drop them off at the embassy guard shack once she has put together. If they are satisfy with your documents, they will call your fiancee in two days and ask her to go for her medical exam. They will ask her to choose from International SOS or Parami hospital. Medical costs about approximately 170 USD. You can also pay in Kyats. Oh, and also be sure to have three more passport size photos to take them with her for medical.

Later on she will also need 265 USD for visa fees. She doesn't need it right away. I think she would have to pay when she goes for her interview. I will update you once I find out myself. Good luck!!

Hope this helps!
