I have a submitted date of April 1st and today I've received a notification to say that my case is ready to be scheduled for an interview!
Had my biometrics on the 23rd, as well
Is it normal for things to be moving so quickly, or will it slow down now?

Sorry to jump on this also, I have a related question. This house is 2 apartments, the downstairs was remodeled for my husband and I. We live separately for all intents and purposes from the other 2 individuals. Is it then correct that our household size is 2 (he and I) and not 4? OR would the government say the household size is 4, as there are 4 under this one roof. Seems a silly question, but I just never know.

Don't forget the G-1145 if you want electronic notifications of status. (It's an optional form.)
yeah I didn't mention it because it's not a requirement for AoS, and I figured those in my situation would already be aware of the form as we already used it for the initial petition
thanks

I130/I130a is to be submitted with AOS for ppl who married in the US without being on a K1 Visa. (Ie they had a different Visa status or were illegal).
I693 is for ppl who have not completed their medical. You have. Ignore EVERYTHING YOU EVER READ from this point on about redoing your medical/getting an i693 forever more. It does not apply to K1s who completed their medical overseas, have a completed DS3025, and who have filed AOS within one year of the medical exam.
Thanks so much for your speedy response. I will go ahead and submit the original 3 forms with my evidence, including the affidavit.

Hi all,
I am a K1 VISA beneficiary, I am now married, and I'm finally able to sit down and start the AoS application. I have read the guide on here, as well as the instructions on the I-485, I-131, and the I-765.
In the beginning I thought I only had to file these three forms, and file them together. (with all of my evidence of course)
I'm not always the best at filtering through the correct information but I do my best, but somehow I've now ended up with 7 different forms, and I was just wanting to check that I had it right, and that they were all necessary.
My queries are with regards to the following forms:
- I-130 (Is this to be filed separately, or with the the I-485, I-131, and the I-765)
- I-130a (as above)
- I-693 (Does this go with the I-485 as "evidence", or does this get given at the interview?)
My paranoia is usually fueled by how old the original posts are, and what updates are applicable etc. I'm almost confident I'm on the right path, I was just hoping for further clarification from anyone who has submitted these forms recently, and how the journey has been so far.
Thanks all in advance.

Hi! Where dis you find the information about the London Embassy being less concerned with the I-134? I'm in a difficult situation as my fiancee only has a friend who can be a co-sponsor. Thank you heaps in advance!
This is what the officer told me at the embassy when I went for my interview.
edit: however I'm guessing if you are using a cosponsor they may be more vigilant

just put down everything, i off the cuff mentioned i had laser eye surgery and the dr even wrote that down, and kinda shook his head like "why didn't you put this on the questionnaire", but then told me it was fine.
at your medical you're going to go through everything anyway and they will add notes, the most important thing to understand is that you have reports for anything "significant" listed on your summary.
hope this helps.

hey, i OD'd in 2016, when i went to knightsbridge they just wanted it in writing from my doctor that i was safe, and well, and wanted specific dates, what i had taken etc. whether or not it's true, knightsbridge just told me that they want every i dotted and every t crossed so that they can't be told they didn't carry out a full examination and have the medical passed back. anyway, don't worry, you aren't being judged, just being asked for the whole story. i,e you od'd on your medical summary, but is that due to being a heroin addict, or was it an accident, or did you have other issues? you don't get denied for going through trauma x

i used baggage hub to ship 3 boxes. they were great, just bear in mind they have no control over how people treat the boxes once in transit. don't overload boxes, uses the boxes they provide, pack them properly, and do not over pack them so that sides bulge. i think peoples poor reviews are concerning the condition their stuff arrived in, but this will majorly be down to poor packing / weak boxes. hope this helps.

you are most welcome! I'm so glad you had everything you needed on the day 😊

I'm not sure if anyone actually bothered to give you a clear or straight answer to this, but the answer is no. they do not do hair tests, if you have a history of alcohol / drug issues they will request you do a supervised urine sample for drug testing and that is all. this information applies to the UK only. I have no experience or knowledge on what goes on in other countries when it comes down to medicals.

if you can get another td without too much trouble, get it. mine was in last 5 years and they made me get another at Knightsbridge

The part that confused me the most was the customs but they are being helpful and make it sound easy and now you have had a good experience I think I will go with them too!
Thank you for the feedback. I hope everything in your new life is going well for you, so great to see you made it!
my stuff was collected on the 27th and delivered here in Washington on the 8th so it went well. I found them really helpfull, and 3 boxes with a total of 72kg cost me £230 ish. that included:
drop off of boxes(highly recommend you use theirs)
collection
delivery
everything is done online via a portal and they are quick to respond to queries.
it's important to remember that when your shipping stuff most people don't care, your boxes WILL be thrown around, so take care when packing
-
thanks for reminding me! yes it went great for me. I had one casualty, a picture frame but that's my fault for not packing properly and kinda over filling that box.

they will probably only ask for the tax returns 😛 they passed me with 5 years of w2s and an employment letter.

I’m going to request my medical history today (they wanted the request in writing so I probably won’t receive my history until Friday 😒) so I’ll see what it says before requesting a letter. I’m getting quite anxious about it, is it a grounds for them to fail your medical on?
no not at all. don't worry. I have a whole history of mental health issues, and all they need to do is cross the t's and dot the i's. you don't need your whole history either although having it doesn't hurt. all they want is your patient summary and then a letter describing any of the significant issues on that, and a statement regarding your current health.

Thanks for the help guys - I'm going to head to my doctors tomorrow to get my patient summary and at the same time I'm going to ask them to write me a letter stating I'm absolutely fine mentally.
Better to be safe than sorry!
hey,
the letter they want is more in depth details about the diagnosis, medication if any, when the medication ceased, and then lastly your current state. everything on your patient summary needs explaining by them if listed as a significant issue.

I just got an rfe and I have no idea what it could be because I sent them everything that was in the instructions. I was notified by email and text but I have to wait for the letter to see what they need.
That's okay, perhaps something wasn't clear to them. It will be easily rectified I'm sure
Please let us know what was missing, or what they needed further clarification on so other people can be more prepared.
Stay positive.

This was in the email appointment confirmation email:
You have successfully scheduled your appointment and paid the K Visa application fee. Here are the details of your transaction.
You must print this instruction page and bring it with you to your consular interview, along with the letter or email you received from the Consular Section.
What is the letter they are talking about? Is it the email that the NVC sent stating our case was forwarded to the embassy?
Thanks in advance xx
So you're not technically supposed to book your interview before getting their letter (we all do), but these are just standard communications. Eventually the beneficiary will receive a copy of the approved petition together with instructions to book the interview. So this is what they are referring to, but some people don't get it. Nevertheless, London is totally digital now, and when you go to your interview they will only ask for the DS-160 confirmation

Sorry I don't have the answer to either of these but just wanted to say I'm visiting on Saturday and I'm SO nervous! I've travelled twice since filing k1 with no problems but i don't know what's making me so nervous this time! 😭
You'll be fine
they will ask you the same stuff and get you through ASAP.

oh, you are Seattle too! assuming you have to go to the same place for the biometrics get there maybe 30 minutes before the appointment time. even though we get appointment times they don't work it like that. you turn up at your alloted time, fill out a little form then the lady will give you a number and call people up to wait in the next room. good luck!
