  1. So a little bit of an update and a question. My wife has scheduled her interview for next month, however she will be taking a trip to Malaysia beforehand. She has never been to Malaysia before so it was not listed as one of the countries she has been to on the DS-260 we already submitted. Does she need to update it? If so, how?
  2. Got an email today saying the I-130 is officially approved. Spouse needs to do get the police certificate and have a medical check before the Visa interview can be scheduled. Any way to change the title of this thread?
  3. Submitted the I-130 to the embassy yesterday and after a bit of waiting they returned my original documents and told me it was approved. But I haven't received any confirmation email. Does this take more time? They provided a letter for my spouse with her case number, and said she would receive an email upon approval but neither of us have gotten anything. EDIT: Also, as I has suspected the I-864 was optional at this time. My spouse will have to bring it for submission at her interview later.
  4. I think it is indeed optional because they include it on the checklist for the later visa interview: https://jp.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/family-immigration/how-to-apply-step-2/iv-checklist/
  5. The checklist states that the Affidavit of Support I-864 form is "Optional in Tokyo but is required for visa issuance." Does that mean I don't need to submit it at this time?
  6. They want me to bring all the documents I had sent them with my initial request and provided this list of additional documents to bring linked below: https://jp.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/130-petition-checklist/
  7. Got an email from the Embassy late afternoon Friday, they told me I have an I-130 appointment on July 12. Does this mean my DCF petition has been accepted?
  8. Yes I will not file anything until I get a response. I was just worried because many threads here describe receiving a response within 24 hours. Furthermore I did not receive any confirmation receipt via email from the Embassy after submitting the forms. In any case, I will email them at support-japan@usvisascheduling.com to confirm if they received it.
  9. I recently received a Job offer in the US starting in August and requested DCF from the Tokyo embassy on using the form on their website here: https://jp.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/family-immigration/exceptional-situations-request-form/ I sent the request Saturday morning, but as of now Tuesday night, have not received any notice from the Embassy. How long does it usually take for the Embassy respond do this kind of request? Will the embassy contact me even if the request is denied?
