  1. I'm so glad you got this information! I just signed up and have chosen where to pick up passport. I chose Salitre, it's the closest one to the embassy, I believe. I hope I didn't pick the one that is the slowest/messiest/the one that loses the most amount of things. We need yelp or something similar.

    Without traffic, Plaza Salitre is about 5-7 minutes from the Embassy. Good luck with everything.

  2. Why is it bad?

    Is it the conflicting data that concerns you? If so, send a corrected LOI, and if the question comes up, be honest... jast tell them if asked, it was a mistake, the other forms show the correct data.. the point is of the letter of intent is to affirm your intent to marry within the 90 days...

    Kenny - I couldn't see spending upwards of $1,500.00 to have a K-1 filed incorrectly. UGH! :bonk:

  3. Overall, the changes I see are positive, but on the downside I have no "cookbook" to follow with the from the experiences of others.

    I need to read through it again, and hopefully have enough confidence tomorrow to create the embassy account, pay for the interview, and schedule the date.

    Any insight is appreciated.

    Andy - My Master's Degree work was just like this. Just break it all down in order of importance, and knock each task out individually. Don't worry about there being a cookbook - just ask your Fiance to help figure out the tasks, since all of the above is explained to the beneficiary - right down to the interview process at the US Embassy. You have to have faith in your other half that she will be organized and make the right decisions in order to get your Visa approved. :thumbs:

  4. My husband doesn't have any record of his shots so he has to get all of the required ones. He will do this in Bogota since the doctors there try to make you re-do them (so they can make more money off of you). We are not willing to pay them twice.

    I'm so glad I'm getting my bonus from work soon or I would have no way of affording all of this!! It's getting expensive- and I'm not even going!

    My Wife had her vaccinations obtained in Barranquilla - about 4 weeks before our interview. She took proof of her vaccinations to Bogota where her vaccinations were validated by a Doctor there.

  5. At my Consular interview in Bogota, I was asked for the items to be passed through the slot at the particular window I interviewed at (with my now Wife). A large photo album will not fit through a 10" by 3.5" slot. Just keep that in mind, and organize your proof of an on-going relationship as such. Photos showing family members interacting and in love are very beneficial - as are plane ticket boarding passes, phone records, etc. Good luck with everything.

  6. Can any recent vistors to the U.S. Embassy in Bogota tell me what Vaccines they asked you for when your (fiance/fiancee or loved one) went for their medical appointment. Past posts indicate there were four main vaccines that the Dr's were looking for. Just looking for people who know for sure and have been up their recently. :thumbs:

    I know the Laboratory/Clinic offices haven't changed since my Wife and I were in Bogota in '09! :thumbs:

  7. We had our interview on 17 July and chose to pick up our visa at the Domesa office in Bogota as this seemed the fastest. Still no visa. My fiance went to the Domesa office today and they were very helpful and searched for an hour. Still not there. Should I be concerned?

    I would think it should arrive any day now. My wife had to contact Diomesa in Barranquilla 10 days after the interview by telephone. They stated that they did not deliver packages to her barrio. On day 12, she received her package by walking to their office (in Downtown Barranquilla) and picking it up. I sounded like a shoestring operation with patrons waiting on the street sidewalk outside of their offices. This can be problematic since people get robbed throughout Colombia daily on the streets. Perhaps, you can check with the Embassy regarding the length of time it will take to ship your package to Diomesa in Bogota.

  8. I recently saw a Tarrantino/Grind House/Robert Rodriguez-type indie film named, "Ticked Off Trannies with Knives". I have to say, "WOW!" It dealt with issues related to gay bashing and stalking with lots of humor thrown in. Two thumbs up! :thumbs::thumbs:

  9. This game is highly addicting - I play at least 3 sessions per day, or until I am told I need to purchase credits. :bonk:

    I don't know how to send bombs to the other player other than by exploding the bombs by landing on them. Anyone have any additional tips so that I can get past my 12th level ghetto?? :bonk:

  10. Under what criteria are these schools deemed failing? What actions did the NAACP actually take specifically? What are the testing scores and data used to support that these schools are failing in correlation with those of the surrounding public and charter schools?

    Charter schools typically have scores that are slightly higher than those of Public schools, but they do not serve the Severely Disabled populations in their respective community-based schools.

    Yes, I am a Union member. :thumbs:
