Yay!! Best wishes to everyone who is waiting for their approval, i wish you all get approval pretty soon.

I was able to do early walk in Biometrics yesterday on 04/21/2016.

Hi all, I have gotten Biometrics appointment notice for the date of 04/25/2016. Please someone update it accordingly. Thanks.

Hi guys, I have received my NOA1 yesterday, dated 03/29/2016. Please update it accordingly.

Thank you very much.

Hi all,

I sent package to CSC yesterday using 1 day express mail service, they have received the package today as per USPS tracking system.

Good luck to all of you. Please add me to the list.

Thank you very much all. Sent them package yesterday, they have received it today. Finger crossed now.

Bigger binder clip. my petition was only about 2 inches thick.

Thank you very much.

I used ACCO fasteners exactly the way USCIS likes as described here.

Thank you very much. You all are very helpful.

Thank you. So after using binder clips for different sections did you bind those sections together again as a whole in some kind of folder? or did you just mail it in a mailing package?

Hello VJ members,

I am sending my I-751 packet soon. How did you guys organize your package? It has a lot of papers, what kind of binders or folders did you use?

Thanks in advance.

Ok it sounds like you're good to go! I'm also not sure if submitting the joint NRE is useful but it won't hurt! Have you considered including healthcare power of attorneys and/or wills?

Thank you. No we haven't so far. We should, but I think we will send the package first with the evidences we have right now, and later we will do that.

We don't have to submit passport style photos like we did while AOS, right? They haven't mentioned it in instructions, but I guess paranoia is taking over me.

Put N/A wherever it doesn't apply to you.

We cannot tell if you're missing anything essential when you don't list what you're sending as evidence of bonafide marriage. Good luck!

Thank you very much.

Below is the list of evidence I am going to send in the package.

1) IRS tax return transcripts for the year of 2013, 2014, and 2015. ( Married filling Joint)

2) Apartment lease where it shows me as an occupant and my wife as a Lease holder from June 14 to October 14. Since October 14 until present Joint lease of the apartment. ( I am also going to write a letter explaining why I was not listed as an occupant or no joint lease until June 14 as I did not have SSN until then so they did not include my name on lease.)

3) Joint saving bank account statements since marriage.

4) Joint lease of Safe deposit box at the Bank.

5) Joint credit card statements from August 2014. ( I will explain here that we couldn't have joint credit cards because of lack of SSN).

6) Copies of chase bank credit cards where I am authorized user. Only few statements of it since we don't use it too often. Joint credit card is the primary one.

7) Joint health insurance and dental insurance since marriage.

8) Joint car insurance since marriage.

9) utility bills (water) with both our names on it since June 2014. ( I will explain here that they did not include my name earlier due to lack of ssn).

10) Cell phone bills of Verizon wireless since marriage.

11)Joint car title.

12) Passport stamps and boarding pass from our trip to India. Boarding passes for the trip to Las vegas, Newyork, and Cruise boarding pass for the trip to Bahamas.

13) Joint NRE ( non resident external) bank account in India, with fixed bank deposits. ( not sure It will hold any weightage)

14) Joint Costco membership cards.

15) Letter from my wife's job showing my name as an emergency contact and beneficiary.

I played it safe and wrote N/A in all sections that didn't apply to us as the instructions said.

Thank you very much.

Hi Vj members,

I'm planning to send my I-751 package very soon.

I have few queries about the form.

In the instructions, they have mentioned that answer all questions fully and accurately, if question doesn't apply to you type or print N/A.

My question is in the part 5 about "Information about your children", part 9 about "Interpreter", and part 10 about "preparer part" should I answer N/A as We neither have children nor We are using interpreter or preparer? Or should I just leave all those parts blank? or it doesn't matter.

I know its a silly question but I don't want package returned back to me due to incompleteness.

Also, my package will include following. Am I missing anything essential?

1)I-751 form, filled and signed, and personal check of 590 USD.

2)Cover letter

3) Copy of front and back of my green card

4) Evidence of bona-fide marriage.

Thanks in advance.

Is it internship or clerkship(elective)? I don't think it would be an internship. Anyways if approved they usually give 10 year multiple entry visa or in worst case scenario they would give 6 month single entry visa. In either scenario CO would assume that there is a risk that she would end up claiming asylum after graduation (which is within 3 months). She can apply again without your letter, she might get approval. But if she really wants to do medical residency in United states, she should apply for visa after clearing at least one step of USMLE with good score.

Thank you Suckie!

Don't worry. You can send following things and you wouldn't need ssn for that.

1) Joint Car insurance.

2) Letter from the landlord or lease showing you are an occupant of the same home your husband lives in.

3) Health insurance.

4) Joint bank account, you can open a joint bank account without ssn. You should talk to supervisor or bank manager at the branch.

5) Send in those boarding passes.

6) Gym membership or club membership cards.

Good luck.

To my knowledge, you can't do residency on F-1 visa. He has to get H1b or J-1 visa for residency. Being married to USC won't be hurdle in getting H1b or J-1 visa down the road. Good luck.

I believe you have insurance. I have insurance under Tricare Prime as well and my dentist expenses is covered - only paid small amount of money- and I am also free to go to Navy clinic. But I think you can't use your insurance to cover your expenses for immigration process.

If you are a dependent of active duty military member, your PCP (primary care provider at Naval hospital)would be considered as an authorized civil surgeon for I-693 purposes. You should go to your PCP at Naval hospital and redo your medical over there. Here is the link supporting what I said. https://my.uscis.gov/findadoctor

You select "Re-entry permit". Good Luck.

Get Married if you both are ready and happy before you leave for graduate study in fall 16. Maintain your Opt status until you leave for Netherland. File for CR-1 in Dec 16 or Jan 17, process will take roughly 12-14 months and after visa approval you will have 6 months to arrive in US. (actually 6 months from the date of your medical). You will be able to finish your study by then. Good Luck.

She can stay stateside and adjust the status, no need to leave. They have been given correct information.
