Hello Everyone,

My wife has an interview scheduled for an IR-1 visa at the US Embassy in Tokyo. Some of the information the Tokyo Embassy homepage has suggested she should bring a special self-addressed prepaid envelope available at post offices throughout Japan (this envelope is called a LetterPack 500).

Does anyone know if this old information, or whether or not it is still a required thing?

I think we'll get one and bring it just in case, but I was curious to know if was actually necessary.

Thanks in advance!

The information is old and you now don't have to bring it...

The homepage says

If you paid the visa application fee through the new system after March 23, 2012, there is no additional charge for courier return of your passport; all costs are included in your MRV application fee.

I didn't bring it and it was all good.

Good Luck!!

Congrats!

Can I ask when you sent off the AOS package?

Thanks.

Thank you!!

I have sent the package on the 20th of August...

Wow!

Thank you so much for your prompt replies!!

Oh my god!!! I am so happy and I am shaking now!!!

My case was not transferred to CSC.

My hubby is coming back from work in 10 minutes and I can't wait to tell him

I will update my case a little later!,

Thank you again!

Hello, everyone!!

I have just checked "My Case Status" a couple minutes ago and it says...

Decision

On October 17, 2012, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before receiving your card, please call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283

Does this mean that am I approved without an interview?

I haven't recieved any interview notices yet...

You can't apply for a green card over there and can't return to the US when you want to without your AP or green card should you go with him.

Okay! Thank youuuuuuu

Looks like your fiancee will have to decline that job offer

Oh no.....

NO,you can not travel out side of the united states with out the green card, fist you need to adjust status 1-485- 1-765-1-131 that takes 4 or 5 months then your permenant resident,

Thank you for your reply!

Sorry that it took so long to get back to you... I had no idea how to get back this post...lol

I have entered US with K1 Visa and about to get married next week.

Today my fiancé has received a new job offer for less than two yrs in South Korea.

Am I able to go with him and apply for a green card over there?
