Vsc. Filed May 23rd approved January 24th. (I called and they said they are still on April 4th, 3 days later I am approved) .

Our 3 year Anniversary is January 23rd so I am hoping for a great Anniversary gift from USCIS!!

Sooo Happy to see a VSC from here approved!. I am hoping to receive mine by new year as well. Hasn't been updated since June and I applied early May would make a great New years gift lol!

When is the sent date and the Receipt Date on your NOA letter? Let us know that dates, so we can add you to the list

The notice date is 6/14/2011 I don't see any other dates though.

VSC received it on 5/23/2011

Another May filer with VSC here, have I been approved yet? Nope. I am actually glad I stopped on here today because I was beginning to worry.

They received it on On May 23 2011 NOA- 6/14 Biometrics- 07/12.

We are currently pregnant so have been looking into this alot. Keep in mind the USA does NOT recognise dual citizenship, they see you as either a US citizen or not. They won't take your passport from you but they won't recognize you as British if you choose dual citizenship they will only see you as a US Citizen.

I had my parents in Scotland call about dual citizenship and they were told that all we would have to do is register our babys birth at the registrar and then apply for a passport, I would imagine the british embassy in DC says you do not have to register the birth in the UK because they don't recognize dual citizenship anyway.

Will vary from country to country.

For example, London was very Lax on Paper evidence and focused alot more on vocal evidence threw questions, times, date etc; (never even looked at my evidence)

I wouldn't print out entire emails, I just took a screenshot of the inbox page that listed dates and my SO's email address and printed one or two that weren't to personal. You have plenty proof.

Goodluck!

Glasgow airport has great customs officers, the one that called me asked me a bunch of questions (birthdates etc) and then started talking about Hogmanay, "show him what a proper Hogmanay in Scotland is like" it was very friendly after the initial questioning.

tho she didn't know what the K-1 was and really she didn't care.

For some reason that made me laugh

Greencard status will not be available on the website until 1-2 weeks after Biometrics. If at all. As long as you receive Communication by mail (NOA1, transfer notice etc;) you have nothing to worry about.

Montgomery county Ohio? or Montgomery county MD?

Yes my then fiance was also pulled into secondary on his visits to me. I got a phone call from customs asking me about our application, where he worked, what I did for a living, how long he was staying etc;; luckily they had my mobile number which I took to the airport with me.

Steven also had nothing to show that he would return to the USA (He had 3 one way tickets, 2 for him and 1 for me to return with him). It is easier to get into the UK as a US citizen than vice versa. Your NOA1 will be the best evidence you can have!

The same rules apply with all customs officers, don't get defensive and be respectful and smile!

Enjoy our trip and don't worry.

Mail it all together. USCIS are not very good at matching up documents for a single petition. I don't even think they would accept it?

Goodluck!

You probably are using the right numbers tglea.

Greencard usually will not be available until a week or 2 after your Biometrics are taken.

EAD/AP will no doubt never appear. Unless you get lucky.

We could only view my Greencard application also.

I think EAD/AP especially seems to never come up on the site don't worry it is definitely not unusual!. Expect it in the post that is what happened to me!.

Although the I9 is ready to expire it states that the Temporary stamp IS proof of valid work authorization but it doesn't state if there are any other factors.

This is definitely a debated subject.

If you are missing any of the required Vaccinations at your interview they will no doubt not start printing on your card until you have them and send in proof.

They won't deny you because of Vaccinations, they just won't fully approve you until you have them.

With Summer coming to an end I would imagine work would pick up with people coming back from Holidays and such!.

There are probably people out there who haven't filed for Advanced Parole and wished they had, best to be in the knowledge that if you had to travel back home you could return to the USA hassle free. Plus, they make nice mementos.

Do you have a Joint bank account? Letters from your parents saying that you are both married and living in there house.

It's been 10 months since I left Scotland. I watched an episode of Eastenders last week and got so lost, thanks for the links can catch up now

Anybody not going back to the UK in December? we are heading back also, we might find a whole bunch of us at the airports

I definetly find that my life was alot easier in the UK. So to me the USA wasn't about having a chance at a better life, it was a chance at a new life not many people from the UK will say that life is easier here in the USA.

My Husbands cousin has been over in Iraq and Afghanistan constantly in the last few years, we always make sure he knows how thankful we are to him and his fellow service men and woman all over the world for what they do, putting their lives on the line to try make a safer world.

A year ago today I was having my medical for my K1. There was ALOT of protesters outside of the US embassy in London.

What does the USA give to me? My husband.

Today we remember those who lost their lives on that awful day. We all remember what we were doing, where we were when it happened, I remember seeing the footage on tv and shivers going up and down my spine knowing these people were absolutely terrified and to those who tried to save as many as they could and lost their lives.

London will tell you that you need it to adjust status, they don't try to force it upon you, they offer it.

Just wanted to let everyone know, if you are being asked to pay for teh HPV vaccine, call your states local health department and go to a family planning clinic, they offer the Vaccine free of charge to everyone, Don't mention immigration to make certain they aren't going to pull any ####### (although when I mentioned it the nurse still said they shot is always free), I just recommended someone else to do it (she was being charged $160 per shot) and she managed to get it for free.

I can't believe you would have issues with that Gemmie, A written warning shouldn't even be on the police computers but maybe they do log warnings also which is kind of strange.

Congrats on your wedding, as a Photographer I love your photograph

Glad you had a great time!, Although I am north of the Border in Scotland I obviously have travelled to England for Visa purposes and ate a very Yummy (and expensive!) Bacon butty!
