  1. I have a final update: I finally was able to Skype with my wife after after her 17 hour bus ride back to Ukraine. My wife's interview was June 5 at 8:20 AM. She received a message Wednesday afternoon saying her visa was ready to be picked up. If she had been in Warsaw she could have picked it up late Wednesday afternoon. When she received the message she was at her Sister's house which is a two hour train ride to Warsaw. She ended picking up her visa Friday afternoon.

  3. Thanks for your message. My wife’s visa interview was 8:20 AM Monday. Before my trip to Warsaw, I had read the post about the couple that picked up their visa the next day at the Mail Boxes Etc. store on Wiertnicza. Even though my wife didn’t receive a message stating that her visa was ready we went to the Mail Boxes Etc. store right before they closed on Tuesday hoping her visa would be there. Unfortunately her visa was not there. An employee at Mail Boxes Etc. said that visas are dropped off at his store only once a day at 3:00 PM. Wednesday morning I left Warsaw to return to the United States and my wife took a train to her sister’s house which is a two hour train ride from Warsaw. Early this morning (Friday 12:09 PM Warsaw time) I received a message from my wife saying that she was on her way to Warsaw to pick up her visa. I don't know yet when she received the message saying the visa was ready to be picked up. Congrats on receiving your visa!
  4. My Wife’s visa interview was Monday morning at 8:20 AM. Before my trip to Warsaw, I had read the same post you were referring to about the couple that picked up their visa the next day at the Mail Boxes Etc. store on Wiertnicza.

I don't know yet when she received the message saying the visa was ready to be picked up. When I find out I will let you know.
  5. I got back from Warsaw yesterday night. I was going to respond to you after I Skyped with my wife today but that will not be for awhile. Below is what I remember what happened and I will update this if I have anything wrong. I will also update this to tell you when my wife's visa is available to be picked up: My wife brought copies of my AOS, this year’s tax return, last year’s tax transcript, my last two 1099-R documents, and an income verification letter, and none of these were collected or even looked at. She brought originals and translations of her birth certificates, marriage license, change of name document, Ukrainian police report, and her Polish police report and she also brought copies of all of those documents. They looked at all those documents but only kept the original police reports. My wife brought two passport photos and they didn’t keep them (maybe they made copies of them but I don’t know that). My wife also brought photos of us, copies of emails, and copies of Skype calls and none of these were looked at. My wife was in the embassy for about 2 hours and 15 minutes and she said the interview lasted about two minutes and she was asked about 6 easy questions. I’ve heard many people say it’s better to be over prepared rather than underprepared I would agree with that.
  6. My wife had her interview on June 5. As of today (June 7) she has not received her visa. She was told at the interview that it would take 3 to 5 days to get her visa.
  7. My wife went for her medical exam yesterday. The computer system was not working so my wife had to stay an extra day in Warsaw and return to the doctor’s office today to finish her paperwork. Yesterday my wife also had her x-ray done at a different office than the medical exam. My wife was not given any paperwork or x-rays to bring to her interview. Everything is sent to the embassy electronically.
  8. My wife’s interview is June 5. I emailed the medical office for an appointment Friday. They emailed me back and said the following: At the moment we can make an appointment for you at the end of May as our schedule for June is not open yet. Would May 31st at 10 AM work for you? The doctor's appointment consists of a physical and immunization review. If any required vaccinations are missing, they will be administered during the doctor's appointment. After the appointment the doctor refers the applicant to the facility at 9 Ludwika Warynskiego street in Warsaw (no appointment necessary) for a chest X-ray and a syphilis blood test (if age appropriate). The medical documents are submitted to the Embassy via an electronic database within 1-2 days, if none of the lengthy tests are applicable (please see price chart). From their response it seems like they would have made the appointment even closer to my wife’s interview date if they were already making appointments in June. My wife wanted to go earlier so we made an appointment the 2nd week in May.
  9. Thank You!!! I had to click the link https://ustraveldocs.com/ instead of Register >> and when I clicked the link https://ustraveldocs.com/ it took me to https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/?language=English&country=Poland and that is where I need to be. Thanks again MCGH.
  10. Congratulations on getting your visa. Thank you for your previous posts on Visa Journey. We just received our interview letter and I have a question. When I went to the U.S. Embassy Warsaw, Poland - WRW on Travel.State.Gov it said to register your visa appointment online to provide the embassy with the information they need to return your passport. When I clicked on the register link it sent me to USTravelDocsPOLAND but I could not find anywhere to register my wife’s visa appointment. Did you guys register your visa appointment online before your interview or did you just show up to the interview? When did you choose to pick up your passport at Mail Boxes Etc. at ul. Wiertnicza (before the interview date or during the interview)?
  11. Thank you to those of you who posted your DQ, IL, and interview dates. That information gave me a a very good idea when my wife would receive her interview letter. After seeing your postings, I told my wife weeks ago that I think she would receive her interview letter on Friday April 21 or Monday April 24. She received her interview letter today (April 21). Below are all the dates that were posted by people on the last few pages of this topic. Thanks again for sharing your information.
  12. Thank you for the information. We were DQ on March 3 and are also waiting for the IL.

  14. My wife lives in Ukraine and is a Polish citizen so we are staying with the Warsaw Embassy.
  15. I submitted all of my affidavit of support documents and they were all accepted and the CEAC site said completed. A week or two later when I logged into the CEAC website to see if all of my wife’s documents were accepted it showed that none of my documents were submitted. I waited a week to see if my documents reappeared as accepted but they didn’t. I resubmitted my documents again. The next day we received an email saying that we were documentary qualified. After getting the DQ email I logged back into the CEAC website and my affidavit of support documents still said submitted rather than accepted. I just logged in to CEAC before I wrote this message and my affidavit of support documents still say submitted rather than accepted. My guess is that I never had to resubmit my affidavit of support documents. We received our DQ email March 3 and are still waiting for an interview date.
