  1. Thanks. Fingers crossed that's what happens. Does it need to be signed for do you know?
  2. Does it need to be signed for by me? Or just someone?
  3. Hi All, I entered the US on a CR1 on 1st October. I paid the immigrant fee on 4th September. We are moving by 8th December and I planned to file AR11 today, however yesterday I got a notification via Lawfully that my card is being produced. I cannot add the case to my online account as I never received an online activation code. Is it too late to change my address or is it possible the card will arrive in time? I'm not sure what to do? We have USPS informed delivery. Thanks in advance
  4. I wasn't sure as the GC will expire after I return, but thought I might be risking it being that close.
  5. Well, I've been here for 2 full weeks now on a CR1 and already turning my thoughts to ROC! I know that I can't file until 07/02/2025 and my GC will expire on 09/30/2025. Unfortunately we have a major family event planned in Europe for September 2025 which I need to travel for. Is it a) better to file straight away as soon as it opens and hope I receive the extension letter or b) file as soon as I return? I will have one week after returning before expiry of my GC. I wish I could move the travel dates but that's not possible. Thanks
  6. Oh wow! That's odd. They were down to like a week. I hope it's just a glitch!
  7. That really depends on which embassy. Which embassy are you at?
  8. Thanks. I've been working since I arrived, so glad they can actually pay me soon! lol
  9. Go ahead and start getting the vaccines you cannot evidence you have had. You will need them anyway. There really is little point in paying for titer tests. In my experience, I got approved faster than anticipated, and I ended up having a load of vaccines over 3 days. That knocked me out a bit! And for sure get what you can for free on the NHS, otherwise they're around 70 each.
  10. Just updating here my experience for others, I was pleasantly surprised that my SSN arrived yesterday, 8 working days after my arrival in the US on CR1. I selected for it to be auto-generated on the DS-260.
  11. I just called them and asked for a tetanus booster and explained I needed MMR for immigration purposes. They didn't take any blood tests as it doesn't hurt to be vaccinated more than once I guess. It's all Visa medical would do anyway, but charge you for the privilege!
  12. Most of my records were missing also. If they can't be proven you have to get the vaccines again. I got MMR and tetanus on the NHS, so I only had to pay for Hep B and a blood titer test for chickenpox on the day of the medical. Might be worth going that route than paying for all the tests first.
