Medical and Interview Reassurance (CR1 Moscow), is there anything i am missing or should add? Add to Watch List Options

[Hopeful_1]

Hello all, I am process in helping my wife prepare for her interview and could use some help for those who are familiar with the process or have passed their interview. If there is anything i missed or feel that i should add, please feel free to comment

First, do i need a request a DS-3025 form, and have my wife fill out a DS-156 form or does it only apply to K1?

Does anyone know the required vaccinations prior to the medical exam?

I did a search and found this link, but I am not certain of how accurate or up-to-date it is http://www.immihelp.com/greencard/vaccinat...quirements.html


At the medical exam, my wife will need to bring the following:

1) x2 color photos measuring 3x4cm???

2) Travel passport

3 Medical History with the list of vaccination she received. [The document should include a doctors signature and stamp]


At the medical exam, my wife will need to bring the following:

1) Appointment letter

2) Medical results [Sealed]

3) x2 photos measuring 5 cm by 5 cm???

4) IF a sponsor filed an I-864 (Affidavit of Support) AND provided the NVC with proof of an IRS Federal Income Tax Extension in lieu of a Federal Income Tax Return, the applicant must bring the sponsor's most recent Federal Income Tax Return to the visa interview.

[ I'm pretty sure this is not applicble to me as i did not file a IRS Federal Income Tax Extension in lieu of a Federal Income Tax ]

5) Evidence of Bona fide and ongoing relationship: Misc photo's, gift cards, chat logs, mailing receipts, and..... ?

6) Her Original Birth Certificate. I sent a certified copy at the NVC stage

NVC has received and has not requested any other information, so i am assuming there is nothing else that she should bring to the interview?

I have heard others bringing their entire package with them, from CIS to NVC stage. Is this really necessary and can the consulate request anything even though technically they have it or NVC has it on records?

Here's what wife thinks (Wife is probably right ) :

She thinks i should send her the entire package of AOS, including the I-864 and the W2's etc, and is afraid they will refuse her visa if she does not bring it to the interview. Can this really happened ?

I just don't see how it's any of the consulate business when it has already been approved by NVC, and luckily we did not receive any RFE's at the CIS or NVC stage.

Unless there are instructions that i did not see that specifically states that the applicant must bring this documents or he/she maybe refused of a visa OR maybe it's just a rule of thumb

I am not sure if anyone ran into this issue before.
NVC writes on the interview letter
RUSSIA POLICE CERTIFICATE Y
even though an original document was submitted to NVC and it should be coded O, instead of Y.

Do you know if Moscow Embassy strictly follows of what NVC puts on the interview letter? Would Embassy demand another original even though one has already been submitted to NVC??
Please help.

yes, you may be right. try contacting the NVC and see what they have to say.

that is a good question, as i am wondering the same question too. For the most part, i would follow what the appointment letter requires you to bring, and what the medical letter found here http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3739.html
