NVC phase advice?

[Lankyshakes 0]

Hey all. Our I-129f was finally approved after 8 arduous months on December 14th. 

 

Do any of you have advice on things to check off whilst I’m waiting for the NVC to assign us a case number and send the instruction packet?

 

Should I get my police records/medical records gathered? Also I’ve never had any vaccinations in my life. 

 

Thanks for any advice!

Hi, gather your police certificate and medical records from your GP (assuming you’re going through London). You should get your vaccinations done now to make it cheaper and easier.

Since you are close to getting the interview....and hopefully approved. My recommendation is to get SS# filed for as soon as you get stateside, before getting married. Then file shortly after for AOS. Life will be much simpler this way. AOS is usually anywhere between 3 months to maybe 2+ years.  EAD/AP is anywhere from 4- 6+ months if you  unlucky.

The Acro police certificate took about a month to arrive when we were going through the NVC process so get that sorted ASAP. Also make sure you obtain your full medical record from your GP (not just the summary). try to get your vaccines form your GP (they are pricey at Knightsbridge). If you can’t get an appointment with your GP, Boots is a good place to go and get them done. Make sure your fiancé starts getting their stuff together for the affidavit of support (tax documents, employment letters, etc).

1) Shots- MMR, Tdap, flu. Your GP may or may not charge you.  

2) Medical summary printout, NOT a copy of your actual records. Also a separate short write up by your GP if you have had significant illnesses, conditions, or surgeries. Cancer, diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure, depression, etc, etc. 

3) Police certificate. If you have ever had any arrests, cautions, incidents, then also order a Subject Access Report which will detail specifics of charges, any fines, etc.

4) I-134 Affidavit of support from fiancé with 1 proof of income, 2 if you are nervous about it. London will approve on simply an employer letter for example. You don't have to show income five different ways to London.
