Today, I used a Kodak kiosk in Boots and I could print US sized photos. I had the choice of eight Irish passport-size or six 2" x 2" on one piece of photographic paper. Select ID photos and then choose your desired size.

Cheers

No problem. I will let you know if I have any success with the kiosk.

FYI

I just rang pixsavers they said they can do the american standard 2x2 no problem

I see. I will go investigate the kiosk at my local Boots soon enough and I will let you know if I have success. If you don't think you can find a place to print them off at that size, you could just e-mail the file to your fiancée and have her print it out over there and then mail it to you.

You know what that's a brill idea as she needs my passport photo for our I-129F package but will you let me know how you get on in boots as I may go there tomorrow myself and check it out.

Thanks for replies

Did you insert your disk into the interactive kiosk and look at the size options that are available? Or did you just ask some member of staff?

Both i put disk in 1st in 2 shops and when I cold not ge anything for 2 x 2 i asked member of staff and both said they cant do 2 x 2, its quite annoying.

I will have to do this soon. What I plan to do is take the photo with my own digital camera. Make sure the photo conforms to the criteria of the USCIS (e.g. white background etc...). Upload it to your computer and crop it to the desired size (do not change the aspect ratio). I think 2" X 2" is about 600px X 600 px. Once you have the picture edited save onto a USB key or memory stick. Then go to Boots or somewhere with a Kodak (or similar) kiosk. Insert USB/memory card and follow the instructions. You can then pick the photo sizes that you want.

I have not tried this yet for a 2" X 2", but I presume you can. You pay per piece of photographic paper. So for passport-size photos you can fit more than one of them onto one piece of photographic paper. Make sure you fill up the template of that one piece of photographic paper with a many of the same photo as you can. You will see what I mean when you look at the preview before pressing print. You will probably need them later on (e.g. interview, medical).

Check the instructions for acceptable photos here.

I have a passport photo i had for the green card lotto on a disk and i brought it into 3 places all that have kodak machines and none said they could help me, just to let you know

I've tired a number for photo shops and chemists that do passport photos and no one can help me in getting 2inch x 2 inch passport style photos as required.

Can anyone tell me where I can get these photos taken in Ireland?

Any help much appreciated

Can you leave out previous addresses and use your home permanent address which you received post, bills etc to all your life too if you cant find names of address or dates?

Been looking at form I will need to fill out in time such as the DS 156/230 form where you got to list all address since the age of 16. My question is do you really have to list "every" address. I have lived in 3 places a few year back and have no clue of the address of dates. I thinking of just putting my last 3 previous address and than my permanent home address for the rest.

Im also thinking of doing this for my police certificate.

Will this be ok has anyone done this before?

See this thread in the K1 forum >>>> http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/321062-k-1-fiance-visa-costs/

Lads thank you

Petition: $340

Visa Fee: $350

Adjustment of Status: $1070

There is also the cost of the medical examination before the visa interview.

Thank you

Ok applying for the I-129f petition and want to know the exact fee, I've seen 340 but I have also seen other amounts on different sites. Can someone please go through the total costs of the i-129f petition for me.

Thanks

Well I will have someone at home that can get the post so I guess thats not a problem. My holiday in the states with my fiancee during the process wont effect my visa will it?

Can anyone help me with this. Im currently living in Ireland but hoping to go to the US in Aug on my Irish visa wavier that allows me to enter the US for up to 90 days. Id like to know if can I get the forms and checklist that will be sent from the US embassy in Ireland to my fiancee address in the US since I will be on holiday over there the time the forms etc are due to be sent to me at my Irish home address.

Any help very much appreciated.
