Thanks!

After we got inside, they had us line up at a small table where they checked that we had all the required documents and took our forms. They had the earler appointment times line up first and then later appointment times. After checking the documents they took the forms, a few at a time to one of the windows. Soon after, Marlene's name was called to go to window X where they had our forms. We were given a sequence number at that time that we used for the rest of the time there. Our sequence number would flash on a board next to the number of the window to go to.

The priorities are by appointment time and then by the sequence number given at window X. While we were waiting for them to ask those with our appointment time to line up, we took seats right next to the line. I think we were 1st or second in that line with our appointment time. Those that didn't have their forms correct or complete had to take the time to correct/complete them and then give them back again. This caused them to get a later sequence number.

No priorities were given outside of appointment time and line-up sequence. Actually having children could possibly slow you down from getting in the first line quickly and thus getting an earlier sequence number. If your USC is there with you, perhaps they could stay with the children while you get in the line.

When you first get there, take a seat near the entrance as that is where the line will form.

Hi folks,I am new here & would like some advice.

Our Petition has been excepted for a K-1 Visa and it will be a couple of months before it will be sent to manila NOA2 , yesterday I was looking at the Petition & noticed on the I 129F my fiancee`s 13 yr old sons bithdate ( he is not a party to the Petition ) was wrong . Also on the G235A , I think I might have not signed it.

What should I do ? or can do ?, we are NOA1 waiting for NOA2

contact them now before it goes to manila ( some kind of form to use or hand written letter ),

waite 2 see if they find it & notify me ( delay`s )

waite until it gets to manila & have Fiancee give them a letter with the corrections, if asked.

have fiancee give to the interviewer along with her folder & explain the problems ( maybe avoide being put on AR )

should these corrections be Notrized ?

other ??

thanks for your replys

lar
