Wintime,

For question 32 on DS156, my wife answered "No", but that is because we have no plans for her to work in the forseeable future. If your wife intends to work after arriving, you can put "Yes". In the sample form on VJ the have added in the employer address field put "WITH WORK AUTHORIZATION, EMPLOYER UNKNOWN"

My transcripts took 3 days to arrive, I ordered them over the phone on the automated system. By looking at my transcripts, I see nothing that would seem to indicate that mine were printed from the internet, but rather from some internal IRS system. Nothing is cut off from the margin. I don't know what else to say on this.

Lastly, your wife will need to take the original marriage certificate to the interview along with a copy. You should send it to her (note they will not keep the original, but she should have it with her).

:help:I have few questions about what's coming in the next step

1-

In form DS-156 question number 32 it says :

Do you intend to work in the US? (yes and no question)

I am bringing my wife with K3 visa, what should I answer to this question, yes we will later apply for green card, so should all K3 visa answer Yes to this question?

2-

One of the support evidence document is the tax transcript, I see folks here mention that it takes a week or two to get the transcript from IRS, I called IRS and I got the transcript with 48 hours, put I noticed that the envelope was prepared manually meaning the clerk wrote my address in an envelope and sent it,

More over the report/transcript seem to be printed out of the internet, with margin hiding last character of the number or some words, do you thing this is normal and the embassy will accept?

3-

One last question, I have the Marriage Certificate with me here, and my wife has only copy of it, is the embassy going to ask for the original to see and verify with the copy? Or they will only take the copy my wife has?

Thanks a lot in advance for all your help

Today my hopes for an interview date to be scheduled before the holidays was crushed. I didn't expect the interview to be conducted before the interview mind you, just that it would be schedule for January or something. I guess we will have to just wait through the holidays not knowing. :( :(

Today my hopes for an interview date to be scheduled before the holidays was crushed. I didn't expect the interview to be conducted before the interview mind you, just that it would be schedule for January or something. I guess we will have to just wait through the holidays not knowing. :(:(

I am in the same position, Urge, Josh phoned the DOS again yesterday and still no interview scheduled. I was truly hoping that my xmas pressie would be a final interview date but unless there is some movement later this week, then I will also be going through the holiday wondering.

Even with this delay, I am still hopeful to be in the US during February :)

:) BIG NEWS!!! :yes: I JUST SPOKE TO THE AMERICAN EMBASSY IN PERU AND WAS TOLD TO TELEPHONE THIS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND IF OUR APPLICATION IS IN THE SYSTEM. I CAN SCHEDULE AN INTERVIEW FOR THE MIDDLE OF JANUARY 2008!! :dance::dance::dance: I SAW FROM THE PREVIOUS VJ PERU MEMBERS IT TAKES APPROX 4 - 5 DAYS TO ENTER IN THE SYSTEM. SO, IF ALL GOES WELL "MY HONEY" WILL BE HERE BEFORE JANUARY IS FINISHED... I'M HOPING AND PRAYING WEDNESDAY IS GOING TO HAVE K3 IN THE EMBASSY SYSTEM. THEN ITS TIME TO PREPARE FOR THE FLIGHT TO BRING "MY HONEY" HOME!!!

Congratulations, My Honey, that is wonderful wonderful news :D Even with all the extra waiting you endured because of your RFE, Peru has a turnaround time that is enabling you to be on track with the rest of us :) I'm so pleased for you that this part of the journey is moving so fast :)

Thank you all, I hope everyone soon knows when the "BIG" day is going to be. I'm amazed to know and with the understanding we are only weeks away from being united for a lifetime!!! :dance::dance::dance: It's just an awesome feeling... :) Makes my heart (L) race.... :D "My honey" is preparing for the Peruvian celebration and I am counting the days down to be with him... :dance::dance::dance: I will let you all know when our "BIG" day is going to be... Yes, I'm so very thankful CSC no longer has our applications because once they finally got away from CSC, it has been moving along pretty rapid and I consider us very fortunate for the progress!!! However, our I-130 on the other hand USCIS stills remains pending.. GO FIGURE!! :wacko: I guess they still want a part of us... :no:
