US Immigration from Germany

Hello,

I received an envelope from the US embassy here in germany. the envelope includes that a cover letter saying that they are processing my application, residential form, checklists, instructions on how to proceed with the application (medicals, etc), etc but there was nothing in the envelope stating that I should mail them any documents. Is this not suppose to be the packet 3? I read here that the supposed letter from the embassy (packet 3) is also to instruct you to send some documents to the embassy including some original documents via courier and I will now later get a letter from them saying that I can now proceed with scheduling the appointment, but in this envelope I received, there was nothing like that. Anyone experienced the same thing? Should I go ahead and send them the documents even though they did not mention it in the letter? or is the packet 3 content differs per individual? Please I will appreciate your advice on what to do. Thanks

Hi all,

I want to give my bank a heads up to make sure USCIS' charge doesn't get denied next month. Can someone tell me what the actual charge will be? Is it "Department of Homeland Security"?

Thanks!

Hi all,

getting ready to file my ROC here in a couple of weeks. I feel we have some solid evidence, deed to our house, car titles, joint checking and savings accounts, retirement accounts, etc. When we bought our house last year my wife applied for the mortgage in her name because I was still a student at the time (not anymore although she still makes about 50% more than me) and didn't make a lot. Like I said, all the paperwork such as the deed, title insurance, home owners insurance has both our names on it. Should I even include the mortgage statements in our package? I am leaning towards yes as I don't want to make it seem like we were hiding the fact that our mortgage is in her name SHOULD they send an RFE later on. Interested to hear your thoughts...

Thanks!

Hey guys.

So my fianc (M,24, USA) and me (F,23, Germany) received our NOA2 last week, however I'm really freaking out right now because of the medical exam.

I used to smoke cannabis a lot in the past, but I stopped a little over 1.5 years ago because I went to therapy and she wanted me to stop and I also had to do drug tests for her, which she will also prove by writing me a letter for the medical exam.

I have still used it here and there since but stopped entirely like a month ago and I tried an HHC pen (which is THC free) for a few days.

Do you guys think any of this will be a problem? I'm really freaking out right now

Our F2A case has been marked as "DOCUMENTARILY QUALIFIED" by NVC since March 29, 2023. We received an e-mail saying that NVC will now work with the Frankfurt embassy in Germany to schedule an interview appointment date.

Does anyone know how long it will take to receive an interview date? On the embassy website I can only see that non-immigrant visa interview appointments are given out within 1 to 10 days.

Also, I can already see that there are almost no medical appointments available for the next three months at all four doctors in the country. Since I don't have an interview date, I can not yet schedule a medical appointment. If we happen to get an interview date at the embassy in two months, how am I supposed to schedule a medical before I attend the interview? It would be amazing if someone could share their experience

Thanks and good luck to y'all!
