Hi Everyone ?. ..so my question is thanks to the world wide web I found excellent tamplet I can use to translate my wife's legalized inextensa Birth certificate and our legalized wedding certificate my question would be if I translate everything myself can I just sign that I translated them or do I need a so called "certified expert"? Down below is an example of one of the tamplet I plan to use.

https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/Supporting_documents.html

"All documents not written in English, or in the official language of the country in which you are applying for a visa, must be accompanied by certified translations. The translation must include a statement signed by the translator stating that the:

• Translation is accurate, and
• Translator is competent to translate."

oh trust me it really hard when we started this process it was october 2015

My husband and I started our process in July 2015. We never even got to spend our first anniversary together.. I´m hoping to get my visa by the end of this week.

Actually, the fastest way of getting it is calling them.... when I went to the tax office I had to stand in line and the lady just ended up calling the same place I would b calling to get it anyway...

Phone number is:

0771567 567

In Swedish of course

Takes 1-2 days to get in mail

I went to my local office and asked for it and they printed it and stamped it right there. They can print the 120 in english without calling anywere

I apologize for the off topic, however, my fiancée is in the process of getting her Personbevis but don't know what to put under the reason of getting one. Although she already has her personal ID and she insisted that's her Personbevis, but I told her it's not. Anyway, she will just go ahead and apply online, but don't know what to put under the reason as there's no "immigration or travelling to US" option.

Thank you so much for your time

She need to get the "120 Personbevis" in english. It´s faster and easier to just go to her local tax agency office and ask for "120" or just say "fullständigt personbevis" Specifically ask for the english version.

I kept getting that message until my package arrived (and I stopped checking). I don't know if that's different for Swedes though.

If you are a worry-freak like me you can e-mail the embassy and they'll let you know the tracking number of the package.

I´m more a OCD freak lol need to be on top of things all the time. Thank you for your reply

Hi everyone

My visa status now shows "Issued" on CEAC, and I know that this will change again to "AP" and "Issued" again. I tried though to track my passport to see if I could see any other status but it only says "There is no status update available for the passport number submitted". Does anyone know what this mean and has anyone else had the same? Just curious

Congratulations!! I hope your husband is doing better.

Thank you! Yes he is doing better but he still needs help and my mother-in-law can´t always be there to help him out. So I´m really happy that I can finally make arrangements to move.

My visa has now been Issued!!!! ? I'm so excited. As soon as I receive it in the mail I will book my flight that will take me to my hubby ?❤

Congatularions to all withh CC, interview dates and approvals ?

What kind of visa are you applying for? You need to fill out your timeline so you can get the correct answers.

Thanks Lenhey for your reply.

But my case status still showing "At NVC"

It will say "At NVC" until they have scheduled an interview and send your case to the consulate/embassy. Once they send it it will say "In Transit" and once it has arrived it will say "Ready". It can take some time before the status changes but it can also be that you never see "In Transit" but instead it changes once the embassy has it so it can go from "At NVC" to "Ready" aswell. Just stay calm Your case is complete and now you just have to wait for the final step

Yes, NVC are now done with their process and now you move on to the interview stage Congratulations!

thanks alot is the case complete email necessary ill probably get that next week

The CC e-mail is more a notification that they are done processing and that they now will schedule a interview as soon as a date is availble. It´s nothing you need to print or anything.

Oh I have to call NVC too to see about interview does anyone know how long does it take for them to send you a interview letter ....?

Once they have set a date you will recieve the e-mail within 7 days. But if you call NVC and they say you have a set date, you can ask when that is so you know before you get the e-mail. They start scheduling again next week.

My CC was yesterday. Do you guys think I should call NVC to check if I already have an interview or is it too early? I heard they assign interviews at the end of each month.

You are correct They usually schedule Interviews the last week of a month and in to the first week of next. If there are slots open after those two weeks they continue until it´s full. So I think you can wait until next week before you call.

Have they started scheduling again this month? I see a few people still getting interview dates, but it seems kind of isolated. They should start again next sometime next week, right?

Yes they will start up again next week

Had my interview on the 19th. Got approved but also got a 221(g). They will send me my visa as soon as they get the missing document.

Hello VJ members,

I was wondering, after you get CC, they send you an email confirming it right? and then, they schedule an interview for you.

My question is: is the interview appointment letter an email as well or is it a hard copy that you get in the mail?

If it's an email, then I'm supposed to get 2 emails from NVC right? One confirming the CC (Which I got yesterday) and the other the interview.

Oh, and how long before the status changes from "At NVC" to "Ready"?

Thanks for clarifying this

Yes you will recieve 2 e-mails. One about CC and one later when they have set a interview date for you. You will get both of these as an e-mail. The status will change to "Ready" once the embassy has recieved the documents from NVC and that will be about a week after you´ve recieved word about a set interview from NVC.

I am sorry that you had to go through that. Wish they could have told you earlier about the old certified divorce decree. But hey you are approved and you will be with your husband in no time. Congratulations!

Yea I wish they would have written that in the e-mail that they sent to me before the interview with the rest that they needed me to take with me. But oh well, at least I know it´s approved. Just one more week of waiting and then I´ll be over.

Congrats for getting through the interview process! Awww you cried, that made me sad ? I know how stressful it can be especially since they requested additional documents but don't you worry, once they have that you will be able to finally be with your husband and it will be worth it and the greatest feeling ever to finally be in his arms for good! Hang in there, you're almost there!

Thank you . When I started crying the interviewer started trying to comfort me "It´s still approved"... Instead of flying over this weekend I will go next weekend instead. We´ve been at this for over a year now so what´s another week

Yesterday, the 19th, I had my interview at the embassy in Stockholm, Sweden. I arrived at approximately 7.45. I saw this looooong line that went into a glas "box" but i knew that was for non immigrants. Right infront of the security booth i found the yellow pole and sign for immigrants. I was standing there for about 2 minutes and then rhe security guards called me up (got to go before everyone in the other line) He looked at my passport and under my shoes. They opened the door so i could go through the "airport" security check. They tiom my phone, put it in a box and gave me a recipe so i could collect it on my way out. Followed the yellow line up to the building and went inside. There i met another guard and he asked my errand and i said immigrant visa. He then told me to go to booth 7. There i got to talk to a friendly swedish woman and she took the documents that she asked for. She told me to have a seat and wait for my interview. 5 minutes later a nice American guy called me up and i now had my interview. He asked me to tell our story so i started talking and he just clarified a few things by asking when, where we met, how many times we've met and when the last time was. He said he was aware that we had an expedite request and said that our case is approved BUT they can't send me my visa until they recieve my husbands old certified divorce decree. Of course i started crying and he tried to comfort me by saying that "don't worry it is approved and your husband can send it directly to us and once we have it, you will have your visa"... I realized that instead of flying over this coming weekend it will instead be next week. So i think we can manage that ?. Got approved but also got a 221(g). Overall it was a pleasant interview and it only took about 20 minutes for everything. My appointment was at 8.30 but i was finished and outside by approximately 8.10.

Hello everyone. It's finally time. Tomorrow i have my interview at the embassy in Stockholm, Sweden. Will give an update how it went ☺

I have been reading on this forum and it has helped a lot. I recently got my interview letter, and in the list of documents on the last page, it lists code N against fee payment. I think its supposed to be a $ which means payment received. I am not sure why it lists N there instead of $. I am wondering those who recently got their interview letter also have N or actually have a $ in front of fee payment.

I have $ for paid. I have no idea what N means ?

Tuesday is the day the day for my interview is now fast approaching and I´m getting really nervous. I really don´t have anything to be nervous about, but still... It´s such an important thing so you can´t help it.
