My fiance is getting her forms and all that together for her interview, and we are on the ACRO portion for the medical, we are just curious about 1 thing as of now for it.

 

Our question is does her ACRO need to be under 1 month or 6 months old?

 

Her interview is at the London Embassy

My fiance is going for her interview soon, and I did not file taxes for the last 3 years as I was not working, although I am now.  Basically what I want to ask is will an employer letter stating my salary (exceeds the 125% poverty level), and some pay stubs be enough supporting documents for the I-134?  I read some people give their taxes and also W-2, but I don't have those, as I was told that the employer letter stating the salary, working full time, and permanent and when nature of employment started was enough.  I was just wanting to get confirmation, will these supporting documents be good enough for her taking in the I-134 to the interview?

 

Also another quick question about the I-134 Form, I am just curious about Part 3, Questions 4-6 where it asks bank values/value of other personal property/value of stocks and bonds, do I leave these blank or put none or $0, since I exceed the 125% poverty level.  As well on questions 7a/7b/8a/8b where it asks for life insurance, then real estate values, I don't have either life insurance or property right now, so would I leave those blank, put "none", or $0 in those boxes?

 

Her interview is at the London Embassy.

 

Thanks so much for the help in advance!

I am doing research on exactly how the process goes, I understand all the paperwork for the medical/interview side of it and getting that all situated as we speak, but there is another aspect that me and my fiance are trying to get down, and any and all clarification would be such an amazing help.  We are curious about how exactly the process works after noa2, and when exactly we can book her medical/interview.  From what I have read the petition gets sent to the NVC which we can call to see if we have a case number assigned, or an LND (she is at the London Embassy).  A question about the CEAC checking, what exactly do all the different status checks of the site mean, and which status is the one that we are looking for that we know it is time we can schedule the medical?  Also how long after scheduling the medical can we schedule the interview?  Basically we are just trying to find the step by step process of knowing when exactly we can schedule the medical, and the interview, and what status it will say on the CEAC site so we know we can.

 

Thanks in advance for all the help and support from all you fellow VisaJourney members, you all are amazing !

We are working on getting all the documents together for when we book our medical, and our question is simply what are all the documents that are needed for the Medical?

 

From what we have read you need these: 

  • Photo identification (e.g. driving licence, passport);
  • 4 photographs which meet Department of State requirements;
  • For applicants aged 16 and over, a UK police certificate (known as an ACRO) issued within the past 6 months;
  • Vaccination records, which can be obtained from your regular healthcare provider. If you are unable to obtain your vaccination record, you should consult with the panel physician at the time of your appointment.
  • Completed medical questionnaire, which can be downloaded here, as a PDF (1 page / 680Kb).

 

which are all just the required stated directly from the embassy in london site, but is there any others that we also need??

 

We have seen only thing else needed is the health summary from the GP, is this correct?

Yes you’ll need a medical summary from your GP, they will tell you this when you book the medical.

 

I would look into getting it soon, as I know a lot of people on here have had issues with their doctors providing the information, some have made it very difficult.

I already answered this for you. It's the truth. https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/702287-keep-seeing-different-items/?do=findComment&comment=9639255

The form instructions say:

Answer all questions fully and accurately. If a question does not apply to you (for example, if you have never been married and the question asks “Provide the name of your current spouse”), type or print “N/A,” unless otherwise directed. If your answer to a question which requires a numeric response is zero or none (for example, “How many children do you have” or “How many times have you departed the United States”), type or print “None,” unless otherwise directed.

Thanks for the amazing replies, you all are always so amazing!

 

We have been researching, and keep finding conflicting answers of 1,3,6, and 12 months, and just want to ask here about the ACRO, about how long it is good for

 

From your London embassy website, Required Documents

If you have resided in the United Kingdom for 6 months or more since the age of 16, you are required to obtain a police certificate from the ACPO Criminal Records Office (ACRO).  Further information is available from their website at www.acro.police.uk.

Note: UK police certificates are valid for 12 months only.  Failure to present all necessary and valid police certificates at the time of the interview will incur significant delays to your application.

From London Embassy visa FAQs

With the exception of the U.K. police certificate which is considered valid for 12 months from the date of issuance, a police certificate is valid indefinitely, provided you do not return to the country and reside for six months or more, if it’s your country of birth or current residence. The period is twelve months for any other country.

 

Or for the BEST answer, ring up the clinic and ask them. Here's their website. http://www.visamedicals.co.uk/us-bring.htm

While you're looking, note their list of what to bring.

Do your research on the London Embassy website or the clinic website. Make sure your responses come from UK people who are ahead of you. It is different in Manila, Mumbai, and Montreal so those responders don't know London specifics.

 

Start reading every thread in this U.K. forum because there's lots of good information somebody has already spelled out. (But watch for ones not from the UK.)

The ACRO is actually valid for 12 months, it's stipulated on the certificate once you receive it. But I wouldn't take anything out of the 6 month (with some padding) marker.

My fianceé (USC) sent me bank statements, W2, tax return, pay stubs and a letter of employment. They only annotated W2 on the paperwork (I was nosy while they were writing it down), I imagine with pay stubs, a signed letterheaded letter should be adequate to be honest. But they do ask for a starting date etc, so it may have them ask your fianceé a question at the interview. As long as it's stated and mentioned by your employer your income etc. I can't comment at all regarding the last 3 years taxes, we only took last years. 

 

My fianceé exceeded the 125% mark however as it was requested on there, she wrote down the bank values etc, and guestimated the other personal property item section. 

 

If any question doesn't have a monetary value or does not apply (such as household/property/life insruance values) place "N/A". My fianceé also doesn't have household and placed N/A. We were approved on the day (March 11th) and had visa in hand 4 days later  :)
