    Status Updated Date: 09-Jan-2013

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Hey guys...sorry for updating after 2 days but haven't got net access.

    But the good news is that I got the VISA at first go without been put in AP.

    Here is the whole experience.

    Got to embassy at 7:30 AM and after submitting the bag (you can't take any sort of bag with you as only plastic bags are allowed)

    and the mobile phones (all electronic gadgets), took the ticket for shuttle service and got all ready for a ride to embassy.

    At embassy known thing is about two lines one for immigrant visa and other for non-immigrant visa, went in immigrant one called upon

    quickly as it wasn't too busy that day.

    Fingerprints taken first then went to submit the interview letter, medical and passport to window#06.

    From there I got a list of approved courier services in all cities of Pakistan with a Token stamped on it.

    Waited...waited and just waited...but to my surprise it wasn't too bad, called after 2 hours on window#08.

    And here the real game has started. White lady greeted with a smile.

    Followed her with the Oath.

    Questions:

    1. Can you please hand me over the Original Urdu NikahNama.

    2. How long have you been married.

    3. How you two get to know each other and what was the connection led to the marriage.

    3. How long you two stayed together after the ceremony.

    4. Have she came down for a visit afterwards.

    5. How exactly she acquired the citizenship.

    6. How often you two talk.

    7. Can you show me the pictures of the ceremony.

    The only two things the Officer asked me was the Original Urdu NikahNama and the Ceremony Pictures.

    No On-Going Relationship Evidences..No Invitation Card..No Receipts of any gifts exchanged or what-so-ever.

    And then came those words which I certainly and honestly wasn't expecting because I already

    developed my mind that at Islamabad Embassy there is no way a Male can get away without been

    suffered through an AP.

    But you know what she said.."Everything seems to be in Order and Congratulations you have been Approved

    & you can get your Passport in 7 working days"..

    Got a call today on 11th from AMEX to pick up my Passport..means got it in exactly 2 working days.

    That's still unbelievable to me.

    I have only one observation and that the Officer already made up her/his mind regarding your case

    and the questions are just mere formality to make the process more authentic and formal.

    Just wanna take a moments and praise ALL my folks here on Visa Journey for your extended and

    kind support of all nature during my process and I wish ALL the very best for those who are in

    AP and those too who are yet to experience the formality of Interview.

    BEST OF LUCK GUYS.

    KIND REGARDS.

    GOT THE VISA on 9th!!! Got the Passport Stamped Today!!

    Tax returns

    in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Hi VJ members ,i have to submit my joint sponsor documents within couple of days on demand of officer at interview ,now my question is

    What will be most recent tax year 2011 or 2012 ?joint sponsor have 2011 tax returns but not 2012 ,,,

    waiting for your answers

    Hey bro...well if you are giving the AOS papers to embassy before 15th March 2013 then submit 2011 Tax Returns & W-2 etc.

    But if the time flies and it gets hard to find a co-sponsor(I hope it wont happen) then after 15th March you will need to submit Tax Returns of 2012.

    hope it clears the air a bit.

    I-864 at Consulate - That will be enough!!!

    in US Embassy and Consulate Discussion

    Posted

    Hi, can I have an expert advice over the matter please.

    My sponsor filled tax in 2011 with a aggregate income of $43,750 with household of 3 in total (except me off course), with the bank savings of $29,000.

    How will it be taken into consideration at consulate level and what will be the case officer's reactions on this...will he ask for a joint sponsor or not?

    Please give your opinions as I have interview coming up in two weeks time.

    Regards
