    DS-2002: Athens Embassy

    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports

    Posted

    Hi there!!

    It turns out that the DS-2002 is basically the email document they send out with the instructions, the one that contains the fiancee's name.

    We printed this document out and made sure my fiancee signed and dated it and she presented it to the office that deals with penal records, the eisaggelia, of the place where she was born.

    Be sure to request the penal record for judicial use. They will then mail this out directly to the embassy.

    Also be certain to request penal records from any country in which you lived for more than 6 months.

    Let us know if you have any questions and best of luck!!!

    Hi there,

    So my fiancee received packet 3 via email the other day but it really raised more questions than it answered.

    They make reference to a form DS-2002 which is necessary to obtain the penal records but the form seems to be missing.

    We are assuming that form DS-2002 is actually the instruction sheet that itself references DS-2002 in the third person.

    We've tried calling and emailing but have received the standard "we are unable to answer any questions regarding forms" and no response to our emails.

    We'd love to hear from anyone who's had experience with this.

    Many thanks,
    Jean

    3. GREEK POLICE CERTIFICATE: For residents in Greece, A PENAL RECORD FOR JUDICIAL UPURPOSE is requested.

    PENAL RECORD: A penal record for judicial purpose can be obtained by presenting Form DS-2002 at the Public Prosecutor’s office in the district of the applicant’s birth, or from the Bureau of Penal Records – Ministry of Justice, for persons born in Athens/Piraeus district. For persons born outside Greece, this certificate is obtainable from the “Penal Service for foreigners” (Mesogion 96, Athens, Greece).

    NOTE: Penal records for JUDICIAL USE will be sent directly to the U.S. Embassy in Athens-they will not be sent or given to the applicant. Please do not obtain penal record for General Use as it is NOT acceptable by the U.S. Embassy.

    If applying from outside of Greece, both Greek and foreign nationals must apply to the Greek Embassies at their place of residence and include in their written application full details of their identity & residence in Greece. Penal Records will be sent directly to the Greek Embassies from where the request was filed. Foreign nationals are not able to apply for Greek penal records outside of Greece.

    Hi there,



    Reading through these posts regarding has been extremely helpful and I can't begin to thank everyone who has contributed.



    Our case status at the NVC is now Ready and my Fiancee and I are wondering if we should pay the K1 Visa fee now or wait until we receive packet 3 from the Embassy (Athens).



    Not sure it really matters but the only options in the portal seem to imply we should wait.



    1. I need to register an Immigrant Visa appointment
    2. I have received a letter from the consular section with instructions to schedule an appointment.
    3. I need to schedule a K Visa (fiance or spouse/child) appointment
    4. I am a Returning Resident outside the U.S. for longer than one year

    Thanks in advance for your help.


    Help: Incomplete 129F petition approved! What now?

    Beats me KayDeeCee.

    The RFE only said that we needed to submit correctly completed G-325A forms. After much examination of the forms and the instructions we were convinced that the forms had been filled out correctly, the only discrepancy being the original forms had an expired date on them.

    We proceeded to copy all of the information to the new forms and submit, at which point my fiancee's G-325A was mistakenly omitted from the packet.

    Now, with an approved petition and a case number pending, several questions linger.

    1) Does the NVC further review the packet and could they reject it if in fact my fiancee's G-325A is missing?

    2) Does UCSIC remove "incorrectly completed forms" from the packet they send to the NVC?

    2) What could happen if the embassy receives an incomplete packet?

    3) Who does one get in touch with when a potential problem has been uncovered at this stage, or should one get in touch at all?

    Thanks again,

    Jean

    Help: Incomplete 129F petition approved! What now?

    Dear all,

    A rollercoaster of emotions here. I received notice earlier in the week that my 129F petition was approved and I'm currently waiting on NOA2 to be delivered to my house.

    The approval followed a Request for Evidence due to my having used an expired form for the biometrics for myself and my fiancée.

    As it turns out, I just realized today that I submitted the Request for Evidence without my foreign fiancée's Biometrics attached! Yet, the petition was approved.

    I'm not sure who I should contact or whether I should contact anyone at this point.

    Mainly, I'm wondering if I should just keep my fingers crossed that the NVC will forward the packet to the Embassy and that my foreign fiancée brings with her to the interview the missing biometrics. I am concerned, though, that the embassy may reject everything and jeopardize the entire process.

    Any (and all) help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Jean (US Citizen filing for my foreign fiancée)
