March 2014 Interviews

[Hbamboutcha 0]

you paid your Visa fee through NVC. There is no more to do with NVC for you but wait for interview.

Now once you get Passport with Visa back after interview you go to the ELIS website and pay the Green Card processing fee $165. But that can be paid anytime before or after you POE.

Oh really!? I was thinking that we had to pay another 230$ plus the 165$... Crazy me!

That's good news then hhhhh thank you

Checked DHL

I was able to track my package leaving NVC with DHL on Jan. 31st. It hasn't arrived yet but is probably a day away. I think they wont even respond to my request to move the interview up until they receive the file. Still crossing my fingers. Saw others talk about the weight of their package, mine says 1 lb. Hhmm, makes me wonder if there is enough info in there or if they recorded the weight incorrectly.

Nope keep that $230. You will get the instructions for the $165 fee when you pick up Visa. Okay now breathe.

Ceac status is now ready! Yayyy! Will call them later and ask if i can already schedule an interview

[Hbamboutcha 0]

Nope keep that $230. You will get the instructions for the $165 fee when you pick up Visa. Okay now breathe.

Hhhhh dhwheels you are funny

[dance of life 1]

How long does it take usually from the time visa is issued and printed- to the time they send it and receive in the mail?

[kiky 11]

How long does it take usually from the time visa is issued and printed- to the time they send it and receive in the mail?

Its different for each embassy. You will have to find out from someone who went thru the process in Sweden. For my husband he will be able to pick it up from the embassy the following day, I am really happy about that.

[kiky 11]

Hey dwheels76, how can I find out about what comes after my husband arrives, just thinking ahead here, I know that we will need to pay the $165 after he receives his visa, and then wait for his green card to arrive, but what about getting his social security card and is there any other info we need before adjusting status? Sorry for the run on sentence....

And how long does it take to get a SSN? Does that take a few months also? Or is that longer? Or does it come with green card? (assuming $165 is paid right away)

[dance of life 1]

It will be within a few weeks after your paid.

when you say adjust status, are you talking about removing conditions? If it is removing the condition then it goes like this: If you have been married less than 2 years you will have to apply for removing of condition within the 90 days PRIOR to your green card expires. (What we have been told from our lawyers- and you can read about it too)

[mary_ann 6]

Hey dwheels76! Do i need to have the original copies of my AOS from my husband and joint sponsor at the time of my interview? Or is it ok if I'll just have a photocopy of those AOS.
