I posted this in the K-1 forum already, but I figured ya'll could help me out just as well since there is much more experience with the Cairo embassy on this forum

I started a new job about 3 weeks ago, but my fiance had already sent in his pkt 3 with the affidavit of support before I even got the job offer.

So the questions are:
Do I send a new Affidavit of Support?
Do we send it directly to the embassy with a cover letter explaining the new job or should he take it to the interview?
Could I just send my photocopy of last paystub from previous job, newsest paystub, and verification of employment to the interview?
How much could this screw up the process and the will the Cairo embassy even look at it?

Wondering if I should even bother, or will it look bad if we don't inform the embassy.....

Any suggestions greatly appriciated

On another note.....

WE HAVE AN INTERVIEW DATE!!!! YAY!!!

11/12/07

I have really been stressing... I hate those indeterminant wait times.... I know we will be entering another one after the interview, but it's over for a few weeks at least and then onto more indeterminant waiting

Now I really need to contact that Senator... where did I put those papers ....

Congrats on the interview date.

On your first afidavit of support...did you make the required amount? If so, I'd just forget about sending another one. It's so late in the year that I think it would only confuse things.

I wouldn't bother with the new affidavit. Congrats on the interview!!! Why are you contacting your senator at this point?

congratulations on the interview!!!! yayy

Hugs,

Ayesha

lately it has proved good to let the resps sent letters showing concern with the case just before the interview (sure cant hurt)

Congrats on the interview!!!!!

To be honest I don't think it would screw up the process at all. People change jobs all the time here on VJ and it doesn't seem to affect the process. I'd have him bring stuff to the interview just in case.

Fingers crossed for you!

Thanks, I think I will just do that

To be honest I changed jobs and when he interviewed I was laid off. No I didn't rock the boat I figured it they wanted anything after I send in the orignials that they would ask. They never did Thank God and everything was fine. That is jsut what I experienced.

IF you are going to send a revised Affidavit of Support do it now and send it to the NVC (not the Embassy).

Ask your new boss for a letter stating the terms of your employment. The letter would cover the criteria the NVC needs to know about.

I doubt you'll have a problem or serious delay.

Good Advise!!!!!!! Respond succinctly and truthfully - don't offer more than asked for.

I would send it to your SO as someone else suggested, so it's there if they ask any questions. But I think as long as you met the money requirements on the first affidavit, you should be ok.

Did you find your release form to send the the senator?

Thanks for all the advise, ya'll are great!

I sent the new employment info to my SO today with a new affidavit just in case and will have him take it to the interview with all the other info.

I also found the release form to send the senator and faxed it over with my NOA2, letter from NVC and a summary of my timeline and the assistance I'm requesting.

So hopefully we should be good to go for now

I'll give you insight that I gleaned from a 17 year veteran Government person I know. It's proven valuable in getting papers processed quickly:

Some golden information when dealing with the Government [Local, State, and Federal]:
When completing forms, keep in mind that whoever is entering these forms has a pile of hundreds. Make sure your forms are completed as neatly as possible. Make sure your forms are clean - never send a dirty form. Make sure you don't provide more information than necessary. If you must provide a note, make it short, and use a yellow post-it note secured with a small square of tape.

Literally, word for word what I was told.

It's worked wonders for me, and provides answers to many questions that come up.

Your info was good - you haven't moved - you have a job. You've got nothing to worry about.

If you provide *too* much information, sometimes it's just as bad as not enough - and you'll cause delays. Make your case as neat as possible. Whoever's handling your case will appreciate your effort to make their job easier.
