Our I-129f was approved yesterday and our I-130 was approved 8/10/06. We are so excited . I am posting this because it always gave me so much hope to hear of others being approved.

Una pregunta...My wife is from Venezuela and I am a U.S. citizen. We were married and have been living in Costa Rica since last year. Gathering docs. (ie birth certificates, police records, etc.) can be time consuming and I am trying to have as much as possilble ready befor they ask for it. Does anbody know what type of docs. we may need to be gathering ahead of time. Also, I may be returning to the U.S. to start work again and I am trying to anticipate any docs that I may need with my wifes signature so that I can print those out have her sighn them and take them with me. Thank ya'll for all your help. This web site has been so much more helpful than my attorney.

God Bless,
Chris and Mariana

Hello!!!!
Well, don't get excited I am here on a K-1 and on adjustment of status waiting for my interview or aproval.. meaning waiting to get my green card... so i really don't know how to help you... but I am writing becasue I am also from Venezuela... :-) and we do have a forum here called gente de venezuela, in case you or your wife want to hang out there, we talk about our inmigration stuff but we also talk about our lives... and everytime we need to talk "Venezuelan" ... so if you or your wife wants to join our forum go to the forums link then to regional then to Latin America, mexico and the caribbean and you will see one called Gente de Venezuela. By the way, I visited Costa Rica last year and loved it, our bosses have a house in Escazu and I have a friend who lives there, can't remember teh town he lives in... but I really liked it :-) ... anyways... just saying hello!
Daniela :-)

Congrats on your approval

Hello Chris and Mariana,


Congratulations on your approval.

You may let your wife sign in advance the DS3032(Choice of Agent), DS230 and bring it with you. They will be asking from you guys soon together with the require docs.

Hi Chris & Mariana!
I am venezuelan too, and already posted some info in our site called Gente de Venezuela. Any way, I also came with a K1 but I was checking the info at the Embassy of US in Venezuela, and found a similar one to the one with the requirements that we all used for our interview. At list 6 of us went to the interview at Caracas, and learn some very interesting tips from each other and remained friends till today. In the mean while, don't wait for package with instructions, all you need to know and gather for the interview is at this link (Instructions for Inmigrant Visa K3): http://caracas.usembassy.gov/wwwh2473.html

Once you know the package from USCIS has arrived to the embassy you can schedule an appointment via email telling them you have everything ready and it speeds up the process at least 1 1/2 months. We can provide you later of detailed explanation and an example of the email. IT TRULY WORKS!!!

Hope this info helps you to advance and to prepare for following steps.

Visit us in our site!

Congratulations

Congrats..What a beautiful couple you to make!!! I would suggest reading the cr-1 shortcuts and guides on here...As one vj member already suggested have her fill out the ds 3032 and ds230 before you leave for the U.S. Good luck on the rest of your visa journey!!!
