Questions:

1. Do we need to file separate I-30s for the daughter and son? If so, how do we go about doing this?

2. Will my wife's daughter need a release from her former husband in order for the son to come to the U.S. --- is it a U.S. requirement?

3. Will the fact that my wife's daughter is not yet an Israeli citizen interfere with the process?

Thank you so much. Your answers will save us a little time.]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:47:29 -0500 http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=229584 http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=229583
Can he be deported if at the interview he is denied the green card? Is it likely they will take that action?

And could he be approved for the green card without the I-94?

Thanks a lot~

you turn right on sherbrooke and you will find the building one street after.

As soon i enter the place i felt good about it..
I was damn stressed but everything was decorated for Christmas and it didn't look like an hospital at least...
i took the elevator to the 11th floor and when inside their waiting room.

A sign tell you to wait and someone come at the window and tell you to come.

They asked what i was there for and requested to see all those
*P4
*vaccination record
*passport
*3 picture passport size

then she made me go sit.. and not even 3 min after a lady called my name...
she was the nurse and she was really nice
I went in a room with her and she took my pressure and my blood in 2 vials...
i told her about gardasil and that i didn't wanted to take it... she said all what she do was to put date of my older vaccine and left that one blank
so she didn't wrote refuse or anything.. then she took my weight and let me go back to the waiting room.
she mentioned to talk to the doctor about it.
she also check my eyes and said i had 20/20 even though i pretty much guessed both line she wanted me to read cause it was so blurry

waited 3 min ...was really surprise how fast it was going...
now it was the turn of the X ray
got called and another lady told me to undress from head to waist and put the jacket..
then she asked me if i was pregnant to which i answered i didn't knew for sure but the chance would be probably real low..
so she didn't took chance and gave me a heavy thing to wear on my back for when she did he x ray...

took 5 min and it was done ...she made me place myself on weird positions..
she was also super nice and she said my picture where fine and looking good ...she sent me back to waiting room...( dressed back of course XD)

waited 5 min and the doctor called me...
( DR Pigeon )
he did my medical real quick... check if i didn't had visible deformation im guessing ...
he made me undress in panties and bra and had to wear that horrible blue jacket again..
took my heartbeat check my mouth and ears and that was it...
told him about gardasil and he was not really cooperative ,,he kept telling me that it wasn't is job that he didn't had anything to write on my folder basically and sent me back to waiting room

paid and got a receipt.. telling to call them in 3 days to get my papers...

if you got more question ill be happy to answer...

I am really beside myself and speechless. I know that he was/is involved in this whole process. I thank him. ) Tonya did have a "lady" and said she was very pleasant. Some of the questions that were asked were:

1) Did she know I was married before?
2) Did I give her a ring (yes, and she showed the ring)
3) What did I do for a living?
4) How many times have I been there? (Answer was 4)
5) How did we communicate? (showed all the phone records, SKYPE calls. One thing that I did was purchase a re-fillable phone card that has the ability to print out the detailed records. So this showed that I call her about 4-5 times a day, everyday. I sent her the records for 8 months. It was about 50-60 pages, but worth it I think)
6) How many times have we met (yes, this was asked 2 times, then Tonya showed the 30 pictures I sent to her, and again responded with 4)
7) Why did she want to marry me?
8) Where/How did we meet? - Online at Elana's
9) Did she meet other men there?

WELCOME TO THE UNITED STATES!!

On piece of insight I can say is that I know this might be hard for others, but tell your SO to try and be as calm as possible. I know it is hard because I know how hyper I am. Body Language says alot. I think they know you will be nervous, but being nervous and sure of your answers are different. I think that the people are trained to look for the difference. I don't feel the are out to get anyone.

Also, do NOT go light on the evidence. I think this is very important. If you were only able to be with your SO 1 time, then make sure you can show that you are talking everyday, emailing, SKYPING, whatever. Have a phone card that allows you to print out the CALL HISTORY. Something that is detailed that shows what number you dial and the times.

Be ready for the "PERSONAL" questions. Like, the one about why she wants to marry me...again, it is not so much what the answer is, but how the person reacts.

Well, everyone keep praying becasue we ACTUALLY don't have it in our hands yet (the visas) so you know how it could pop up and they want to review something.

Thanks to everyone that has helped us so far, and I hope this insight helps.

As some of you knows, we were approved last weekend. Been completing my documents for the DS-230 package for the whole week and hopefully done until next week. However, my husband cannot start anything with the AOS package papers (don't know if he can start something else). I asked him to call IRS like a month ago or maybe so to get the W2s and tax transcripts for the past 3 years and he received them like few days before he went to Philippines for 3 weeks vacation. After 3 days back to WY, we were approved and checking on his tax transcripts, 2006 is empty and he called IRS why it happened and IRS said he did not file taxes for 2006 as well as 2005. First question is, Will it be a problem if these 2 years were not filed before? According to him, the lady from IRS will send him papers to take care of that then they will send the Tax transcript. Does anyone knows how long will it take?

Thank you in advance guys!]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:09:35 -0500 http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=229576
