Hi everyone,

I've been in the US for just over a year now on a CR-1 visa, which I'm looking remove the conditions on next year (I'm married to a US citizen). I'm currently studying at college and they have CARES Act grants available, which I was considering applying for. 

My question is would it effect my application to remove conditions or future naturalization application? 

Thanks for the help!

With regards to having patient access to medical files, will it suffice as proof of vaccination records for me to go online and print off the page or does it need to be signed by my GP??

I can only give you my experience, I had a full vaccination history from the military and they accepted that, however the guidelines they used are different to the UK military and I had to have one vaccination because I couldn't prove I'd had one as a child despite having one in the military and having the record. Your mileage may vary.

Nice! Mine changed to Issued today, spent 24 hours in AP (am doing K1). 

 

Oh well, looks like we are going to the States then! 

Nice, I got an email from the courier today saying it was dispatched so it seems pretty quick once its been issued.

Congratulations! How long did you wait at the Embassy? I had my interview on Friday 23rd, interview was at 10am, they didn’t call me to the desk until 2:15pm! It was so incredibly busy! Then the interview itself took about 90 seconds! 

Mine wasn't THAT bad, I was waiting until about 1230, they only had one person doing the actual interviews and two processing documents so it was pretty slow. One guy did come to help her for a while but he left after doing a couple. I imagine they're busy in the office at this time of year. 

Changed to issued on the ceac status check today!

It shouldn't take even a week to issue if all is going at a normal pace and you have no Security hiccups. You could have it in hand next Tuesday...if you're lucky.

Aye, the woman who did the interview said it should be with me within a week, but in my head I've got that 10 working days they say on the website 

Just now, Wuozopo said:

When it says ISSUED, then you know you are really approved. 

Queue me checking the site obsessively for the next week or two

Yep, normal. It can go back and forth between things. 

That's a relief, obviously I won't be fully happy until its in hand but I'm 99 percent there.

Congratulations! 🎉 🥳

Thank you!!! I had the biggest grin on my face. 

Hey guys! I had my interview today and it all went fine, got the acceptance and that I was just wondering if it was normal that my ais still says appointment, it doesn't say administrative processing or accepted or anything. 

You can request full medical notes from a practice by filling out a patient access request, but it might be overkill for what you need. 

Thanks for the reply! I'll let her know!

Hey guys, I have my interview at the London (UK) embassy in a couple of weeks for a spouse visa. My wife (US citizen residing in the States) has just brought a new house and is planning on moving into it next week.

Do we need to update anything when she does? i.e. petitioner's address or my planned address while in the states and will this effect my interview date because they have to update the file?

Thanks!

If it's anything like the navy then when you left the airforce the MO should have given you a summary from DMICP along with a document so a new GP could request your med records from the military. If you get in touch with the sickbay they should be able to get another one by filling out a request form, if you're that interested in fleshing out your summary.

Hey again everyone! 

I got my interview confirmation email yesterday (right after I messaged my wife saying there was no news that day yet, classic). 

 

I've been trying to call the doctors and book a medical appointment but I'm just getting a long dial tone when I call, is this the right number? 02074687822

 

Thanks guys! 

Scratch that I'm an idiot and wrote the number down wrong. They had plenty of appointments for the next couple of weeks too if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the answers guys!

I think you can only book your own interview date for a K1, I'm a CR1 and they assign the dates, sorry I should have been more clear.

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone had rough timelines between becoming documentarliy qualified with the NVC and receiving your interview date?

We got the e-mail through from the NVC saying they had received all fees, forms and documents and would be contacting the embassy on the 9th July.

Hi guys, I'm getting my information together while waiting for the case number etc so I can fill out the forms quickly when the time comes. 

I have a couple of questions, firstly looking at the dates I might be on holiday in the states inbetween completing the form and the interview date, or when I'm filling it out. Should I put down future holiday dates on it (I have return flights booked so know when I'm coming back) or is it just for travel prior to filling out the form? 

Second, I am currently serving in the military. My final day employed by the military is in September but I'm on terminal leave from July. If I'm on terminal leave should I put not employed / other and explain the dates in the additional box or should I just put my employer as the military even though my contract will likely be coming to an end during processing? 

Thanks! 

Hi, first of all congratulations! 

You say that you also attended the interview, I am the applicant and my wife is the petitioner so I'd just like to know if we should plan for he to fly over around the interview date as I was under the impression only I had to attend. 

Thanks!
