great!

today is the day i will send the scanned papers they want before interview

by the way i have another question.

i want to go to embasssy with my fiancee. i didnt see any option that i can add myself on anypage i have been to. HOW DO I DO THAT?? do i have to call or send email to some place??

i called the ustravel docs customer service they said i just need to have my passport and say at the gate that im petitioner. is that true?

by the way i just looked at my credit card .. ds 160 charged me 288.65$ where to get our money back? )

Ah ok, so the envelope comes with the passport via Pony Express then? Interesting, I didn't know that nor was Elena informed of that. She was given a copy of the CD with her x-ray on it, but I suspect that there will be an additional one in this yellow envelope thing.

Very curious as to why your tourist visa wasn't canceled but Elena's was. I've ready every where else that the beneficiary's tourist visa was canceled too. 'Guess it depends on the CO who does the interview...I agree, it doesn't matter once you adjust, it's just a curiosity/completeness thing that my engineering mind addresses automatically. lol

As for the delivery, did Pony Express actually bring it to your apartment? Elena told me that when she received her tourist visa, that Pony Express simply called her and told her to pick it up at their office. We're considering traveling to see her mother and naturally I'm concerned as to what would happen if they attempted delivery when we were absent.

in ds 160

we choose the PICK UP from post (pony express) office section and it gave us available pony express branches in the area. do you remember what you did on that section?

i got the appointment ..!!!

where do you recommend for me and my fiancee to stay in moscow ??? around 50 to 80 $ a night budget? (i want to be close to embassy and medical place and METRO STATION)

i fixde the problem .. consulate already sent me approval to book appointment i did.. !

i already have the conirmation page printed (that was at the end of application)

my question is now system said i have to wait till consulate contacts my fiancee. how long will this take???? how am i going to get to date searching screen?

i did the ds 160 (without photo, becuase it didnt accept my fiancees picture) i saw that it says i can give the pictures at the interview..???

i paid..

now the system said please wait for the email ??? what is that supposed to mean? am i going to wait 1 business day for them to open up that system?

hello

i just finished doing ds 160... COULDNT UPLOAD A PICTURE because of size and out of focus it said... is it a problem?? i finished the ds 160... can i upload tomorrow with new picture or i am going to present it at the embassy????

and i paid the fee and screen came up and said we will send you email when you can select appointment date.. is it right ??? im in moscow russia consulate.

hey guys

i just logged into my fiancee's ustraveldocs profile and choosed new application/new appointment section. it asked me for what i am applying for (k1) and stuff and i got to payment receipt number page. i filled that one and now i dont know what is coming up next?

i saw like 10 mesaages ago somebody put a screen shot of application.. i didnt see any of that when i was typing.. am i going to see that after payment page???? when??

av8or1

I dont think they can do that... i know that if you have facebook account they can find you from their computer to see if you have fiancee or relationship status or somehing..

no one can log into your private stuff, if you are not running away after killing 20 people ...

by the way i will call you tomorrow my name is john

Hello Everybody,

i am finally sitting infront of my visajourney and looking at the updates.. hopefully tomorrow i will start looking at the interview slots.. i am thinking about calling medical place first to see if they have dates available than i will look at interview date.. what do you think?

Guys,

how important is NVC letter ?? i still didnt receive it and my mail have some problems currently..

do they ask at the embassy about it???

is there any other way of me getting it ? like email or log into some website to get it?

Ah ok, understood. Well if you will be in Moscow, let's try to find time to meet up.

i will be in moscow for 3 hours on wednesday 10th im going to change planes there to go to saratov (to my girl). are you living in moscow? we can meet when me and my girl comes for interview.. what do you think?

I havent paid and looked at any of those stuff,

because it will be my first time meeting with parents of my girl she is very busy and i am very busy travelling now. i will be there on wednesday and i think thursday we will start looking at all this stuff...

CONGRATS!!!!

When did you log into the system to see the available interview dates??? were there a lot of dates available?? did you call medical ? are they busy also???

Ok so after checking 3 or 4 times per day for the past 15 days, we're finally in AP! Woooo-hooooooo! I musta ran around the apartment three times while trying to contain my excitement because David was sleeping. I looked at it like 4 times to verify what I was seeing. We haven't received an email yet from the embassy, but the CEAC website says AP! So that's good, right?

Now my attention turns to what the heck they were doing. Dunno. Musta been the multiple filings. But as I said in my explanation in the packet itself (separate sheets of paper from the I-129F form), I went into each of those relationships (and filings of the I-129F) with the thought and belief that this was it; that I'd be married to this person for the rest of my life. Little did I know what awaited me, especially from the ex-wife.

Anyway. Whatever. Just wished they'd send me the email so we can schedule and move on. I'm ready to go home y'all!

At least this is a step in the right direction, yeah?!?!?!?!

Congrats!!!!!

Ksenia, wow thank you! Great feedback. It's good to know that your case wasn't straightforward either, that helps immensely. I was thinking that this is why they are taking so long to put me into AP. I have filed 3 fiance visa petitions in the past; the first two were for women from Belarus and Russia respectively. Both of those women dumped my a$$ after I had filed the petition for them and then they both married local men. The second married only *ONE* month after she ended our relationship, so you kinda get a picture about what was happening there. I always thought that those "shouldn't count" but of course they do. lol Then the third beneficiary was the aforementioned woman from Ukraine who seemed genuine enough to me but who in the end was really just looking for money. I don't have any criminal anything, it was just the previous filings ... but I don't know why those would be a problem. The divorce decree was included in the packet and the first two women didn't even attend the interview and I *did* actively cancel those petitions with the respective embassies instead of just letting them expire.

Then Elena has a US tourist visa (3 year, 6 month variety) and she visited me 3 times in Austin. But she's gone back every time and never stayed more than a month, so there is no overstay scenario at play there either. She got that visa just prior to our meeting on loveplanet.ru but we met in Moscow prior to her coming to TEXAS.

So I dunno, that's as "messy" as we get. ce2010, since you were put into AP so quickly my guess is that y'all will have no trouble whatsoever. I don't know why they're giving us such a hard time of it. I did ask for an expedited interview because of our son and our strong need to return home together; Elena's family lives far away, she lives in Moscow alone and so if I have to return without them it will be even more of an emotional and financial burden for us than it has been already (221 day wait in the TSC + time to get to the embassy + 14 days as of today), not to mention the physical burden for Elena to travel alone with luggage and a kid in-tow. I mentioned that in my email to them, fully explaining the situation. But perhaps they got offended that I asked and decided to make me wait ... seems kinda petty, but I suppose it happens. I suspect they receive lots of those types of requests. I wouldn't have asked if it wasn't for our son; heck I wouldn't even be here for the interview...

Ah I dunno. Frustrated and bewildered. Confused.

Thanks again Ksenia

Hey

or i should say we got to the ap status very fast to get denied.. you are waiting for it to be approved right away

My only concern for the interview for my fiancee is (im petitioner) after living in usa for year and half (legally with student visa) she went back to russia, without going pass her visa date.

since than she applied 3 times for tourist visa and got denied because of no strong ties to russia situation...

maybe thats when we gonna have hard time in the interview..

If it saidthat you can schedule an interview, I think you can. Status can be little bit weird I guess sometimes :)And I guess on Monday or Tuesday my boyfriend will get an email saying that he can schedule an interview, too. Hopefully.

And tell me when will your interview will be because we are planning to schedule ours around 9th or 10th of June.

im (petitioner) going to russia to my fiancee on the june 10th. and i am planning on and hoping to find interview date around june 20th.... lets see...

that status tracker is little weird i see

ce2010-

What's your status right now? Are you still in "Ready" state? Have you received an email from the embassy giving you instructions on how to schedule your interview and have you done that? Did you check to see if they've received the paper copy of your petition?

And did you encounter the same problem with your interview fee payment?

Hello
