Additional Info? |
- When arranging documents for the interview, keep it simple, do not use big, hard folders. Better to use just a paper clip to keep docs together. The hole thru which we hand in our docs is curved and no big or hard file can go thru. And they don't want files and/or dividers; they would only take the papers.
- During the interview, the Consular Officer would ask questions at the same time with going thru the docs: docs handed in that day + original I-129F petition, which they received from NVC. Questions are specific, closely related to the individual case.
- Police Certificate (Good Conduct Certificates) in Malaysia takes around 2 months to process, then is valid for 6 months. So it's better to apply far before NOA2.
