Cheryl, European countries usually take it hard for the Iranians that are living in Iran. He is resident of USA now. European embassies issue visa for Iranians who are resident of USA easily. You only need to get visa from one of those countries. One Schengen visa works for all European Union countries. Give it a try!

Actually, I disagree! They do not put all Iranians in AP. When I had my interview couple of years ago, among the 3 Iranians who had interview almost the same time, I was the only one who went through it! It just depends on what mood the officer who interviews you is in! THAT'S ALL!
Don't worry! You'll be here before you know - My AP lasted 17 days. I went to USCIS website and had the cellphone notification activated, so when my AP was over, I got notified. They updated their website 2 days after though because it was weekend.
Enjoy your last days, have fun with friends and relatives... soon it will be a memory!

Enghadr zood tamoom misheh ke aslan taajob avareh! Time flies! F2A che joor visaeieh? Student? Is she here too?

Ali, I think I was so much ahead of myself. You are still at the first stage of the process and there is no A# available yet! Don't worry, you do not need to mail anything. You are gonna have to show those to them during interview.

You can either wait for REF or send the additional documents now. Just make sure to attach the documnets to a cover letter on which your wife's A number is mentioned. I did it once and it worked.

Hi, I got all my vaccines in Iran. In Institute Pastor in Tehran - International Section (he definately knows it). There they asked me to which country I was immigrating - seems like different countries have different requirements. I said to USA and they knew what I needed. They gave me a yellow booklet, the same size of a passport. Name and date of each of the vaccines that I got were mentioned and officially stamped on that. When I came to USA, I went to a civil surgeon in Los Angeles and the first thing he asked to see was that yellow booket. The hospital that I went to in Abu Dhabi asked for that too. They all accept it. And yes it was much less expensive in Tehran. Tell him to go to either "Institue Pastor" or "Tehran University", if he lives in Tehran. If you have more questions, just send me an email.

I moved from California to Montana for school. I almost had the same issue. The first time I went to homeland security for biometric I had my California driver's license. They looked at that and they asked if I live in Montana. I confirmed and I said, "but I have not changed my driver's license yet, because I have been so busy." - They were okay with that. The 2nd time, which was the interview time, I had a temporary card issued for me by Montana DMV. It had my picture printed on it. They were okay with that one. Probably you need to do that too.

Did she go to institute Pastor in Tehran for vaccination? Didn't they gave her a small yellow passport looking booklet? Also, my doctor in Abu Dhabi who did the medical test on me, gave me a report "for my own info", in an open envelope. All they ask for are these two documents.

Cheryl, visit this website: http://www.daftar.org - Hussain can call & talk to them also. They are helpful. This is website of the interest section of Iran in the USA. You can download all the forms and info that you need for registering your marriage in the Iranian way and stuff like that. Don't worry, you are not the first American woman that is married to an Iranian man. They know how to handle it.

You'll be alright! Soon you'll get a letter which extends your GC for a year. They know it will take more than 3 months for them to issue the new card that's why they send this letter. I traveled to Tehran when there was only 10 days left of my GC's validity.There was no problem at all because I had that letter with me.

Why Italy and Austria? Then obtaining a Schengen visa would add up to problems! Is your fiance living in Iran? Why not Abu Dhabi or Ankara? I went to Abu Dhabi and it was very great. Ankara is good too!

When we filed for K1 we just sent 3 letters of us and when I went for interview I had a big folder full of all letters, they didn't even ask to look at that. Read my timeline please.

Hello VJ,
I just wanted to ask if any iranian VJ members know anything about Tara Khorrami? Should I hire her for my CR1 application?
Is it necessary to hire a lawyer?
My husband has gone for a student visa and a tourist visa a couple of times----so i wasnt sure if i should hire an attorney just in case
You do not need to hire anyone. Stay here in this forum, use sample forms & study similar cases.

Royajoon, I'm talking to my family and friends there through yahoo messenger, skype & phone every single day with no problem. Tell him to try yahoo messenger again and then activate your archive and print your archive daily for the embassy. However, I had a BIG pile of our messenger prints and they didn't even look at them or ask for them at all during the interview... it was just a heavy load I carried with me.

Actually at the airport of the country where you are transiting, you do not pass any immigration gate to have your transit visas checked! They just lead you to the transit saloon after your arrival. Ask him to double check the issue with the agency to make sure.
-
If the evidence is satisfactory, the 10 year card is often issued without an interview.
What a good piece of news!!! How much I dislike interviews! Thank you!
-
When in Tehran you call an agency for a ticket, they won't sell a ticket unless they are sure you have a visa for destination! But they handle transit visas themselves! Don't worry about it. The travel agencies in Tehran would handle it perfectly.
-
Take it easy, don't be so nervous! The reason why we are here is some thing else!
-
She just received the two-year green card! I think they have to go for another interview in two years and in case of not being married till then, her permission to stay would be rejected! Isn't it supposed to be like that???

1)It appeared in Persian Portal
2)I'm not a new user, so I know that if I had any useful information I should write that in English (the question marks show that I asked a question)
3) this is somehow a personal comment
English in this section.

When I came here I had MMR (twice) and hepatitis (3 times) injected. They said chicken pox is not for adults - Here in the US I just had TB.
Regarding the price : different states are different - you may read some posts that people say they paid $30-40 but here in Los Angeles I called all the Civil Surgeons and their prices was different from $150-500 - I went to the one whose price was $150 although it was not so close to my home. The one that was close to my home said it would cost $350, yuck!

Actually I wanted to tell you about it when we were writing about going to Iran that my mom and my sister keep telling me no to go home for the Persian New Year but I didn't tell you because I believe they are too much worried because several friends of mine are already gone there now and they are planning to come back after New Year holidays! They told me that they are having so much fun and they just stay away from riots and troubles, you know what I mean?!
As I remember your fiance lives in Shiraz! May be Shiraz is not having so many movements as Tehran. The best person who can tell you if it would be safe to go or not is your fiance! Ask him about Shiraz situation(and let me know also )
My Fiance has lost her original Iranian Birth certificate and her interview is about to come up! HELP PLS

Actually they did not ask for my original BC. The official translation, which is stamped by the ministry of foreign affairs is what they care about. Do not worry at all. Go ahead and schedule the interview.
