Yes, you can visit!

That would explain why you had such issues.

Oh yeah, I know why it happens. I just wanted to show that it can be overcome with the right answers. And that Global Entry is very helpful.

We finally just submitted yesterday, and I have an upcoming trip in late september. I am planning on printing my flight intinerary, but should I have anything else? I mean I have two kids back home, own my own house, work a part time job (+ currently a student online). 

I have to admit it makes me nervous, but it is just a short 2 week stay, so I am not too worried.

You’re fine.

We're now at the embassy stage and I am due to travel out next week (on an ESTA) for a 2 week trip - I've submitted my DS-160 and paid the interview fee, so this trip is incredibly close to the final hurdle.

 

Over the past couple of months I've been gradually collating all the docs I intend to take incase I get any hassle at POE (Atlanta). My list is:

• Flight itinerary (which includes return flight).
• Full copy of I-129F petition.
• All subsequent notices (NOA1, NOA2, NVC - I'm unfortunately yet to receive anything from the embassy).
• Evidence of employment (original contract, letter from my manager detailing the dates I am away and when I am expected to return).
• Tenancy agreement and email correspondence between myself and agent.
• Bank statements for Sept + Oct (acting as both proof of address and showing rent payments).

Does anyone think I should also include a copy of my DS-160 confirmation and the payment receipt for the fee?

Is there anything else recommended to take?

 

My last trip was March (again for 2 weeks), so I'm not too concerned about any red flags around that. My only concern is having enough to show that I will return.

I'm hoping that having 2 previous, relatively short trips where I didn't overstay and that were 4 - 6 months apart will say something too...

 

I will post an update after I have flown out!
