Thank you  

 

And ditto! That's awesome, I'm so happy everything's moving forward for you! I think if it was just this morning then no worries just yet. Have you gone ahead and scheduled your medical already? We got our checklist pretty much straight away after the Ready status but I do believe it depends on how many available appointments the embassy has to offer at the moment. Also remember the embassy will be closed tomorrow for Ascension day so that is most likely the reason if they're being a bit slow this week.

 

Probably you can go ahead with the DS-160 also, don't think you need the checklist for that, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

No need for the checklist for ds 160. ☺

Hey all. I have a question, and I could not find the answer on here anywhere with a search. Someone had asked before, but it was never answered (years ago in the original Scandinavians thread). 

 

So my fiancé (who is Norwegian and lives in Norway) and I got the checklist from the Swedish embassy today, so went ahead and filled out his DS-160 (it did not have us pay any fees, we just printed the confirmation page at the end). After that, we went to that ustraveldocs website for Sweden, and when we were filling it out we noticed it said in several places on the application that visa documents will ONLY be mailed to addresses in Sweden. It did not even give us the option to put Norway in the address area. As far as I understand, the purpose of providing the address is so that the passport can be mailed back to you with the visa inside afterwards, so we did not want to submit it before checking on this. He sent a message to the Swedish email address thing to ask for help, but we will probably not hear back from them for a while. Does anyone know what to do about this -- just ignore it, or are we using the wrong application, etc?

 

Thanks!

I had the same message. Just ignore. When you have submittet the application you can pay the fee. When thats done, the embassy Will email you and you can order an appointment for the interview. When thats clear, they email you the confirmation of the date, and the norwegian adress will show up. Home delivery.

I'm curious about Hep B being required anywhere because the panel physicians' guide just states the MMR, TD, flu, and confirmation of varicella for adults, does it not?

 

 

Hep B is required if you are a Child.

Question about documents: My fiancé's police certificate is the equivalent of the uttømmende politiattest, just that it is entirely in English (as he requested). Is it necessary to provide the Norwegian version too? I know the English translation is required, but what about the Norwegian version? I'm thinking not, but I don't know how pedantic to be about it!

Mine is in English too, but i have 2 car crashes on there, but that is written in norwegian.

Oh ok. We just got NOA2 so I think we're supposed to wait before we start calling them. What did you guys do?

I asked my fiance to call this coming week. ..I will let you know so you can have a somewhat timeline. .. 

Just now, NadiaK said:

Hmm.. How long does it take to get the NVC number? 

It varies a lot. ..but within 2-4 weeks I would think

1 minute ago, NadiaK said:

This is what it said in the email I got back in 2017 when I asked some questions. It doesn't say anything about NVC... 

 

"1.      Du MÅ ha intervjudato på ambassaden FØR vi kan sette deg opp til time hos oss og før du kan ta røntgen og blodprøve.
Unntaket er forlovelsesvisum/K1, som skal ha den medisinske undersøkelsen før de får intervjudato."

 

 

Yeah, thats what I got too. ..

Just now, NadiaK said:

That's what I'm wondering about too. I sent an email earlier today, and I'll let you know if they answer. I might try calling tomorrow anyway and I'll ask for that! I hope not, it would be good to get that over and done with!

Thank you 😄😄😄either way. .we shud get that number soon 

1 minute ago, Tekri said:

Yeah 😄😄😄thats what I hope too 

Do we need the NVC number for the medical? 

2 minutes ago, NadiaK said:

I know...! Well, my friend has volunteered to go with me. It'll be a fun road trip and a mini holiday for us  Hopefully I'll go back to Norway with a visa

Yeah 😄😄😄thats what I hope too 

Just now, NadiaK said:

Ah right! Yeah I'm not in a hurry yet, but I still want to get at least this medical out of the way as soon as possible!

So stressfull. ..and then we need to go to Sweeden. .😄😄

Just now, NadiaK said:

Awesome! I'm working until June 22nd, so we're hoping I can move over at the beginning of July or something  

Ah, no hurry then. I have an 8 year old son. Hoping to get him in a school before the summer. ..

Just now, NadiaK said:

Do you know-ish when you're heading over to the US?  I'm excited to follow your journey towards your visa interview  

I hope it will be late April or mid May. What about you? So nice to feel one is not totally alone 😨😨

1 minute ago, NadiaK said:

Haha yeah I sent an email a loooong time ago just asking a few questions, and they sent me all the paperwork for blood/x-rays, haha. But I'll call/email on Monday and just book an appointment!! SO EXCITED! Thanks for the info, it always helps to find someone who's doing the exact same thing as yourself  

Bare hyggelig å hjelpe 😄😄anytime! 

Just now, NadiaK said:

Ahhh awesome!!! So... (føler meg så dum!) I contact the KAL-klinikk and get an appointment, then contact Unilabs and just tell them that my medical is whatever date and they will schedule me for the same day? 

Følte meg dum jeg også 😂😂

Send an email. If they do not respond, call them. I had to do that. 

Just now, Tekri said:

Yup 😄 just inform Unilab what day you are going for the medical. I believe medical is done wednesdays ☺

The doctor will email you papers to bring for xray and blood. ..☺

Just now, NadiaK said:

Oh ok! Cool! Uhm do you know if you can get the x-ray done at the same day as the check with the doctor? I am confused! Any information you can share?

Yup 😄 just inform Unilab what day you are going for the medical. I believe medical is done wednesdays ☺

Just now, NadiaK said:

Takk! I'm a K1 filer (fiance visa), and K1 filers need their medical BEFORE the embassy will give you an interview date. So that's why I'm wondering if I should just go ahead with it now  

I did order a medical. I was approved 17th of February. Going to the doctor 14th this month

Any Norwegians on here who knows how long it takes to get the uttømmende politiattest? It's only valid for three months so I don't want to apply too soon, but I don't want to wait too long if it takes three months to get it as well, ya know

It takes 2 weeks

I think this was mentioned at some point earlier in this thread, because I remember it was called "flerspråklig födselsattest" and had the names of the parents on it. But @Shanne should know  

I have 1 that states both my parents names on it. When you go on the webpage for folkeregisteret, you get to choose wich form you would want ☺

Yay... congratulations 

Thank you. ...i never thought it would happen 😊

Just now, Scandi said:

If he is also applying for a visa, then yes, he needs to be interviewed as well.

Thank you so much. I just keep hearing so many different things. Some say Kids under the age of 14 does not need to attend. 

I guess we will enjoy Sweeden for a few days 😄

Hi there ☺

Better ask my question here in this thread. 

Does my 8 year old son need to come with me at the embassy in Stockholm?
