Waiting2005

Our experience was about 2 weeks.  Just make sure you have everything together.  The interview was very easy for my wife and her friend that just went though it this month.

Good luck!!

  We had similar problems.  I tried to talk the bank into just adding her to the account.  Since we used her married name on the utility bill and her passport still had her maiden name they would not add her.  I was told if they did add her even with the marriage cert as proof that my account would be locked and funds frozen until an investigation was done.  It was enough for me to stop trying. 

  We just got done with the green card interview.   It did not seem to matter to her if my wife was on the bank account or not.  We had proof of our marriage and pictures with family.  I did get her on the utility bills and on my home depot card.  I would not stress over it. 

Hello all,

I have an interesting situation.  We went and applied for my wife's Social Security number.  They SS office sent a rejection letter that said the Dept of Homeland Security did not verify your status.  Called SS and they said i would have to go back in.  During the time we were waiting for the SS number we got married.  I told the SS office worker that and she said then she can't recieve a SS number.  So I am at a loss of what to do.  

Questions I have 

Did the Dept of Homeland security just not respond to SS or have they screwed up and lost my wife's paperwork?

How do I get her a SS number

I am preparing to file the I-485 form.  Do I have to wait on the SS number until she gets her green card?

Thanks,

Mark

Hello All,

I hope everyone is progressing in their journey.  

i am looking into getting a Social Security Card for my finance who just arrived in the US.  Does anyone have any advice on this.  I keep reading she can't get one unless she can work here but I think she needs one to get Married.

Thanks!

Instructions for packet 3 in Thailand says to fill out the DS-260 form.  Is that right, or a typo?

So our NOA2 daye is 05/11/2018.  Today NVC received case and we have a case number.  Good Luck Everyone.  We are SO HAPPY!!!

This is a Thailand specific question.  My fiance got a  Letter of Status Certification showing she is single and able to marry.  It expires after 180 days.  We submitted it with our application and of course got approved to this point.  Does she need to get another certification or is the one she has sufficient?

Question bout the scans.  My old website date was Nov 20 and the new site says Nov 22.  Which numbers are the scans going by?

Wherever her first entry to us is, if it’s Atlanta then the interview (not much of an interview though) will be in Atlanta.

I have found a flight that comes direct to Houston.  I worry about her because she know limited English.  I do not think the officers in Houston or Atlanta will know much Thai.  At least in Houston I can be near by.  I think it will help her.

Where do I ask a question about port of entry?

Looking at flights I see many go through ALT (Atlanta)  Would my fiancee go through the interview there or at her final destination?
