Jeanette was approved today shes dead tired right now, I just wanted to let everyone know her interview went fine.

Also congratulations to Bhu! Hers was approved too.

More details to come after Jeanette gets here and is all rested up. We both appreciate all of the help we have received from everyone here at VisaJourney, Couldn't have done it without you guys!

Absolutely! I'm driving in from Surrey so no hotel for me.

I'll be there at 9:15 am - traffic pending!

Gonna be hard to get some Z's tonite!

Fantastic, Jeanette will see you there!

I doubt shes going to sleep much tonight either. Shes pretty nervous!

Hey Bhu!

Thanks for the quick response! It really helps! What hotel are you staying at ? Jeanette is excited someone else from VJ is going to be there! What time are you planning on showing up at the consulate in the morning? It would be nice to have someone there sharing the interview experience for moral support.

Howdy,

Jeanette has her interview in the morning and wanted to know if she needed all of the I-29F paperwork we originally sent to California service center, the biographic info and everything or just what was on the Vancouver consulate check list. Also, she went to the consulate tonight just to see where it was and the guard said that she will need to line up for her K1 visa, she explicitly said she had an appointment for a K1 visa and they still said she has to line up in the morning. Does that sound a little strange to anyone else?

Thanks for the help!

def. send it to your fiance, she'll need it for her interview along with the OF-167 attachment.

form is just basic name DOB case # and a basic yes or no medical checklist (please post if i forgot anything) i git there at about 6:15 and was out by about..oh crud.....i think about 9 ish

Jeanette

i met a gentleman there was doing the same thing....he was #3 so he got out in time...apparently did the interview and they just asked that he bring the results back as soon as he got them. Didn't seem to be a problem with it. Hopefully yours works out well but def. show up early, and try to do your paperwork fairly quickly once you get it....cuz it actually ended up being first to finish the paperwork got the first # when i was there. Good luck

Jeanete

ps may be the next day for the medical to go through the consulate (not sure)

he was there when i got there too....you should be able to wait indoors on the first floor no problem (and there's chairs! lol)

Jeanette

seems to be a bit of movement in Van so i thought i'd bump this back up.....anyone else stressing over the interview.... lol 6 more days til mine

good luck to all

Jeanette

hey, i just had mine on the 22nd...no apointment but show up early it's kinda first come first serve. i was there at about 6:30, you wait in a line, fill out some papers, get given a #, then do bloodwork, chest x-rays, and the exam. pretty easy but bring a book. they'll ask you to come back at 2 to pick up the results. i think they told me they only do it one day a week. and when you go back they give you the x-rays, an envelope for the consulate and a copy of vaccinations for you. hope it helps. (oh and the ladies at the desk were really nice)

Jeanette

yay congrats! when's the move? lol

Jeanette

to the best of my knowledge you just have to take it to the interview with the I-34.

Jeanette

i guess i'm lucky, recieved mine yesterday but i live on Van Island so it's faster. it's probably just on it's way in the mail. good luck

yay! i congrats and i'm glad someone will be there at the same time.

lol i'll still be in Van then probably gonna fly out on the 9th i'll try to send you some good karma! and congrats.

Jeanette

ty

yay! interview booked for the 7th of Dec. later than i wanted but soon:) i can't wait. good luck to evryone waiting for a date and let me know if anyone gets the same day

jeanette

sigh. i haven't been able to see my baby since April 24th... but it's all gonna be over soon!

born in Vanderhoof BC and now i'm on Vancouver Island moving to AR

caladan

they said our case got sent from NVC on the 23rd of October. the date on my paperwork from the embassy says Oct.31. oh and in case anyone runs into this, i guess Van needs a signed copy of the OF-167 Attachment, they send it with your paperwork and i haven't been able to find it online (if anyone knows where i could find it that would be great) . needs to be signed by the sponser and attached to the I34.

Jeanette

Ceriserose hit it on the nose, Thanks for the info!

i'm in

just got my packet 3 and getting ready to send it all in. good luck to everyone waiting.

Jeanette

Yea thats what I thought too Kitkat, but there is a physical paper in the Packet 3 attached to the OF-167 that needs to be signed and presented at the interview. Something about Social security Act, Public Charge and Food Stamps. I havent found any info about it. Mabye something specific to the Vancouver consulate? It specifically says it needs to be signed by the petitioner and presented at the interview along with the I-34. Its got me a bit confused.

Howdy VJ,

The Vancouver Consulate sent us our Packet 3 today (Yay!!!). I had one question about Packet 3. They want along with the I-34 Affidavit of support there is another document OF-167 and attachment. Everywhere I have looked all I can find is OF-167 is an Optional Form, but it has an attachment that needs to be signed by the petitioner. Does anyone have a link to the attachment I cant see to find it anywhere. I was hoping to just find the document online so I can print it sign it and send it to my fiancee quickly!

I appreciate your help!

-John
