Hey, do you suggest that we send in the Affidavit of support with Sponsor's proof of employment and tax returns with the Packet 3.5? Since this is very sensitive information, I am very hesitant sending it in; someone else told me to have my fiance take it to the interview. What do you suggest? Thanks!

Do you think it make sense to call DOS during AP? Or a congressman? Is there any way to hurry up that process?

Hey, quick question: when they asked you to provide more evidence of your relationship, what did you provide? My fiance and I don't have any pictures, besides two group photos; our engagement took place after I returned to the US. Since then, we have hundreds of pages of chats and hundreds of skype calls, but no other proof. Do you have any suggestions for us? Thanks!

Just read the good news; umbarak shae umbarak, khalka! mazi de, mashallah. Did you have the male or female being sponsored from Pakistan? If it's female, then that was super quick, mashallah!

*via both a hundred times, no exaggeration. So, just keep a close watch for the document. The American citizen should receive it in his/her email soon. If not, contact you international liaison in your congressman's office. Good luck. And keep us posted!

If it's anything over a month since NVC contacted you and the Embassy still hasnt sent you packet 3.5, you should contact your congressman asap. The Embassy makes mistakes--they sent our 3.5 to me, but missed 'g' in 'gmail' so I didn't get it! And they don't pick up calls nor do they respond to emails; trust me, my fiance and I tried to contact them via both a hu...

Thanks, Eric and Anum! I'm so glad for helpful friends like you! I have no idea what I would do otherwise! A thousand thanks!

Thanks, Imagination! You're incredibly helpful! I'm making duas for you for your kindness.

Thank you! That makes me feel much easier!

Hi! packet 3.5 says that my fiance should send in the original birth certificate. Is this safe? Will the embassy really return his birth certificate? I'm very hesitant about submitting an original anything to the Pakistani embassy. Thanks!

Congrats on the NOA2! If the Embassy doesn't get to you with the Packet 3.5 in three weeks, contact your congressman. In our case, the embassy left out one letter in my email address so I didn't get the packet until a whole month later, after my congressman emailed them. Good luck! Now, Waqar is filling out all the forms and getting police records, etc.

Hi, Carolyn--I hope you're hanging in there. Has the Embassy updated you on the AP status of your fiance?

Never mind about about EAD/AP--just went through your timeline and realized you're way ahead of us, mashallah. Congrats on coming so far and good luck on the rest of the journey!

Salam--any updates on your husband's AP status? I'm praying for you...

So, what exactly is EAD/AP combo card? Also, was your fiance/e placed on an AP? If so, for how long?

Exactly! If they had taken a few minutes to respond to our incessant emails regarding out case status, we could have addressed the incorrect email address issue ages ago. *sigh*

Hi, did you guys petition for a K1 visa initially? If yes, did your fiance get placed on an administrative hold? And if so, for how long?

Hi, can you tell me what forms I need to send to my fiance for the affidavit of support? can I scan and send them to him rather than mailing, since they are confidential? Packet 3.5 directions states that the AOS is optional, do you suggest that we send it in with the Packet 3.5 submission or that my fiance bring at the interview? Thanks!

congratulations! How long were in you AP? I am so worried about my fiance being held up in it for months and months!

Salam! Where are you guys in the k1 application process?

Salam, has the Embassy emailed you the Packet 3.5 yet? In your case, is the female or male who is in Pakistan? We just got Packet 3.5 and, in our case, it's the male in Pakistan. I'm so worried that he will be placed on administrative review for ~6 months... that seems the like the norm!

FINALLY got packet 3.5, alhumolah! Thank you, God, for congressmen!
