Keep in mind that there is no packet 4 or 3.5 for K3 in Islamabad.
Also need to fill out I-134 but I don't believe the packet comes with it.

Let me know if you need help in filling out any forms and such

Isn't it you don't receive the DS-157 in packet three when your beneficiaries is a female. Khurram did your wife receive the DS-157 in the packet 3? Also, the form 1-134 what did you send as the support documents? Pick form the list or add/delete. If there is no packet 4, just wondering why you have the date in front of packet 4 in your timeline.

1-Offer letter from employer
2-Pay stub
3-Income tax return - Is this needed? if yes how many years?
4-Bank statement

Thank you,

Thank you,

She received DS-157 but didn't have to fill it out as it stated in the instructions that came with the forms that "this form is not required for female applicants"

This is what I sent for I-134:

1. Affidavit Of Support (I-134)
2. Bank Letter with Bank Statements( Monthly summaries)
3. Job Letter
4. Tax Transcripts -2004-2005-2006
5. 401k Statement
6. Bank Statement (Monthly detail)
7. Copy of Tax returns -2004-2005-2006
8. Pay stubs for the last 3 months


I have Packet 4 listed in my timeline but no packet 3 as there is only one packet sent by the Embassy for K3 and you can choose to call it packet 3 or 4 as the time line on this website didn't have an option for just a K3 packet.

Well, after years of wait, it's finally over ... my wife and daughter received their visas.

My wife's interview was scheduled for next month but was interviewed at the same time when she accompanied our two year old daughter to her visa interview (even though the phone/emails to the embassy weren't successful in asking them for it).

Their interview experience ...

Took the bus shuttle around 7:15am for the embassy. Got in around 8:00am got in the embassy. 1st call for an interview was around 8:30 and they got called after 3/4 people.

The interviewer asked for "baye" form, than showed my two year old daughter my picture asking who I was. I guess got a satisfactory response (from a two year old).

Then asked the following to my wife ...

Any link to a terrorist organization?
Previous visit visa application?
Who is petitioner?
Where does your husband live?
What does he do for living?
Where was the baby born?
Why were you in Canada?
How long were you there for?
Do you have any relatives in the US?

Than something along the lines of .... congratulations your visa has been approved. Everything is okay, you need to send medical report. Which was sent along with passports and received the visas in about 12 days.

This forum has been a great help. Thanks for your support!

A few questions for the resident experts here.

First a brief case status. I applied through a lawyer for my wife both I-130 and K3. The I-130 processing was completed and interview date received for April 8th 2008.
A month ago post I-130 approval the K3 was approved, procssed at NVC and now she received a packet from the embassy for an interview date of January 8th 2008 requesting the same original documents that we have already sent them for the I-130.

Considering i kept emailing them when the I-130 was being processed for an early interview date, they never did that stating heavy workload and now the K3 is scheduled for an earlier date - not complaining but what a mess.

Questions i have are:

1. Is there a possibility of them do the I-130 interview on the date they have scheduled the K3?
2. All original documents were sent with the I-130, if she goes to the K3 interview what to expect?
3. What other options are available.

Apologies if the questions are redundant, your responses are appreciated.

Regards

My husband got the Learner's permit, but in your case since you already have international learner's permit, once you are comfortable you can apply for License directly, for that you only have to pass the road test. One more suggestion go to the website and review the requirement, because each state has their own laws. Good Luck!


We finallay got our NOA for EAD and AOS on saturday dated 10-23-07. I am so happy!

Congrate man so thats the good thing that you have both interview's already schedule so here is what you can do just call embassy and tell them that your both cases is there and u got K3 interview date and ask them to change K3 interview to 130 interview so all you needed to do is take all the K3 doc they ask and since u already submit 130 docs they should have those and when they call ur wife name at embassy just go to counter and request them to do 130 interview instead of K3,
coz thats what happen with my wife case but only difference is that my wife only got K3 interview and embassy was in process of 130 date but I called them and told them to make K3 interview to 130 and they did it and since I went with my wife to embassy which is better and took both paper work K3 and 130, hope this help and good luck inshallah everything will be good

Than something along the lines of .... congratulations your visa has been approved. Everything is okay, you need to send medical report. Which was sent along with passports and received the visas in about 12 days.

This forum has been a great help. Thanks for your support!


Congrats.

First, congratulations to both XstrangerX2007 and Khurram on finally getting their Visas!!!!

Now my story and questions....

My wife has been on AP since June 22 of this year. We were told about two weeks ago that the security clearance had been completed and our case was sent back to Islamabad.

Last Tuesday, someone from the Islamabad Embassy called my wife and asked her a few basic questions like when did we get married, has she ever been married before, etc.

I called the DOS today and was told that the Embassy tried to issue the Visa to my wife but some "computer" said that it had to be sent back to Washington for more AP. I'm very frustrated and upset about all of this and have no idea what's going on.

Any ideas why this happened? How long do you guys think this will take?

Thanks,
Jeremy and Bushra

I am so sorry to hear that, but I think what happened is that when Islamabad did their Security name check maybe they thought needed some other security clearance done as well that they didn't request before.
Again, just a guess but I will be praying for you

I'm reading your timelines and I'm so confused. Everyone who has immigrated has told me that basically, you get a letter from the embassy that says when your interview is and a list of dr's that are approved, you have this time before your interview to get your paperwork and med stuff together. When you go to your interview you find out right then and there if you're approved. The way it was described was...they tell you leave your passport and pick it up the next day with your visa.....is this accurate???

The first part is right ... you do get a letter that lists doctors to get medical done and interview date. However, you only get an idea on the day of interview whether you need to go through AR/AP. If they don't put you on AR/AP than you generally get the visa in ten days, if your application requires AR/AP than it can be a longer painful wait. I haven't seen next day visas lately.

what is ar/ap? any idea who has to get something like that......any idea how long it takes to get the interview letter from when the stuff leaves the states? You can't call the embassy anymore, they say you have to email or fax.....yeah right!

Administrative Review/Processing. Generally requires additional background checks and seems to create a longer waiting time (especially for males).

After NVC completes processing and sends file to Islamabad embassy, it usually takes them two/three weeks to process the information and send further notification to the beneficiary.

Hi XStrangerX2007,

CONGRATULATIONS your husband got visa and a happy reunion.

Dear Khurram,

I am so happy to hear that your wife got visa its a long wait for u especially regarding females but once the visa in hand the past becomes a happy reminiscent. For me it just took four days to receive visa from the issuance date hope your wife soon get visa. My advance CONGRATULATIONS to you both and a happy reunion.

I went to driving licence office yesterday and was told as my passport had ninety days entry so until your passport dont show u can stay in usa for one year i am not eligible for the driving test. I am in a state of tennessee and without a driving licence its difficult to get a job. So what can be done to show them i can stay in usa for year because to get green card possibily will take time, so need your precious consents.

Thanks

GOD bless us all

Did you file for AOS, if you got recipt, you can show that, I think this will work. Do you have international license, you can drive for a year on that as well, and then apply for Driver License once you get GC.
