forms and typing in

[Twomoles 8]

In packets I will receive from embassy will be forms to fill. I figured out already what will be in there and we prepare them. Its ok if I make and print them already, or they should be handwriten in these exact papers they sent. Maybe silly question, but now i started to thought abuot this, and i want everything to be perfect...

Hmmm, I guess it doesn't matter, really. Read the instructions on the forms, Ieva. If they say it's okay to type, go ahead. In Brazil, they send the forms for us - making it impossible to type - but it's okay to download them from the internet and type.

I am sending my fiance "American" 8.5 x 11 inch paper so that she can print on that, rather than A4 used elsewhere in the world. I don't know if this really matters. Any clues from anyone else?

I used 8.5 x 11 inch paper - I guess it matters inasmuch as they have to file the forms and A4 paper wouldn't be as good - the margins would get out of the file.

Oh, good idea, I will ask him to bring papers used in USA, or try to buy them here, they are smaller then A4, what we use here, so they will all match. And try to print them, will see what printer says about this. Although papers what he send in there from my side was in A4.

Also, should be that all embassies use the same forms, and the same updatet latest version from official USCIS home page should be ok. Sign and data of course i will do handwriten.

Maybe its not so big deal and i am making elephant from fly. Who knows.

I told him my concerns about paper size.

He said - you overthink and think to much and worry to much.

Maybe this all process and VJ makes person a bit insane

That is the USA standard letter size. Remember that in the other countries they would have to reset the printer to accept our 8 1/2 x 11 paper depending upon the printer used.

The consulate we are at does not seem to mind the 8 1/2 x 11 paper, but the medical facility that assembles the packet for the interview will not accept it. They insist it be A4 and hand written. The Guangzhao consulate is now instructing the medical examination officers to allow computer generated printed forms and USA size, but who knows if on the day you arrive it will be allowed. If in doubt, do both and also bring blank forms too in case it needs to be redone.

I would suggest reading on your site specific forum of consulate interviews and pose the question there. Each consulate seems to have it's own particulars and it does change from time to time. Possibly you can email your consulate and ask a specific question to get a specific answer. The more accurate wording of your question, the better chance for a correct answer when it comes to consulate emails. JMHO.
