  1. YAY! Congratulations @sabby_nay! Sending good wishes to everyone else who had their interviews today or are having it soon! For anyone who recently interviewed and worried about their status on the CEAC visa website not updating yet, don't worry too much if the status is "administrative processing" for about 2 days. This will be updated to "issued" once they ship your passport out! They shipped it out on Friday and I got my passport back the following Monday after my interview(based in AKL) so it may take a few more days for other locations I also wanted to check with anyone who has already flown in to the USA or plans to fly into the states (This may not be the right thread so feel free to direct me to the right one), has anyone recently gone through Honolulu Airport for first point of entry with their CR1/IR1? I'm currently deciding between arriving at HNL or SFO as a layover and wanted to see anyone's recent experiences with customs there? Thank you!
  2. Hi! @MaliceDaMeanest and @kiwipete thanks for your help! Just had my interview today all went well! I can confirm they do need the courier bag so good you got one @kiwipete! however for those who didn’t include it in the pack, don’t worry You can bring it on the day of the interview or if you don't have one at the time too they told some of us we could go to the dairy at Britomart which sells postal bags, they could buy one after the interview and just put it in the immigrant visa mailbox so they can use that to ship your passport back to you. They were understaffed today so we couldn’t buy one there today but I think usually you’d be able to! If anyone’s worried about the questions don’t worry! They’re so nice and didn’t ask me much overall I think I was in line for 40 mins but the interview only took about 2 minutes. Here’s a few questions I can remember: 1) who’s your petitioner? 2) who is he to you? (I just said his name so they followed up with this) 3) when did you meet? 4) did you start dating right away? 5) how did you manage long distance? 6) how long have you been together for? 7) what made you want to get married? 8 ) what’s his job? Which company? US OR NZ? 9) what do you do? 10) where are you planning on staying in the states? 11) when do you plan to move? (Reminded me that we need to move within 6 months if when the medical was taken)? 12) what work did you do while on a J1? Then I had a mini freak out because she said we might need a joint sponsor because my husband was currently working for an NZ company and not US but thankfully it was all ok in the end as he had some investments and I just pointed to where the documents were in the package. Wishing you all the absolute best next week! ❤️❤️❤️
  3. Hi everyone, for the documents to be submitted to the consulate a week prior. Are you also getting your copies of birth certificates, marriage certificates etc notarised or signed by JP? I am aware we also need to provide originals too. Thanks! Also @Jacq1227 thank you for the helpful information above
  4. Hi @MaliceDaMeanest, This is so helpful! Thank you so much! I see now why they said I ddnt need the paper version too. That’s good to know!
  5. Hi @MaliceDaMeanest, When you went to CityMed do you remember if they used emedical forms when they did your medical exam? I was told that I didn’t need to do the paper version so I wanted to check with you all. Otherwise I’ll come back and get everything signed again to be safe ☺️ Still awhile until my interview anyways. Thank you.
  6. Hi I was following this thread and was about to ask about updates but I just got my interview email 5 mins ago for an interview on may 17! We Got DQd on 14 March. So similar to you. Hopefully you all get your emails soon too! Really crossing my fingers for everyone!
