Well.. Let's hope and pray I guess. His bank sucks, and 2k in one go.. We'll see!!

I think we actually used a debitcard, since that was also an option. My husband will likely get a call, but we’ll see. We got the funds on there, so it should be all good

We used that credit card authorisation form thingy, but all in my husband names. I hope they don't deny us for that, I don't have a creditcard or bank account yet. oop

So don't leave the house. Got it. LOL

I didn't want to waste paper, but my brain didn't use it's cells and think 'just scan it into a pdf!!' LOL I guess I'll just stay extra nervous until I get a receipt

I should've done that. I made some copies but not the entire thing, sigh. It's not that I'm very nervous, it's just with the administration rn.. I wanna be prepared LOL. Looks like I'll try to avoid law enforcement HAHA

I got a question. In the limbo between sending the paperwork and getting your receipt/noa whatever it is haha, I have nothing to show for my legal status here right?

So many people using the Arizona or Illinois lockbox! I feel like such a loner with Dallas, LOL

Glad to see they're moving on your cases!!!

Please if you can fill in your timeline and info like postbox on your profile. It helps a lot of VJ members

Quitting your job is usually not recommended when you're filing for K1, they want to see that you still have ties back home etc. ESPECIALLY with a visitor visa. Edit: This all depends on when. If you file K1 while still at that job, then it might not matter if you do have another job at the interview.

I have my number, so as long as I don’t need my actual card for things, I should be good. I noted I would like a new card on the forms, so I guess it’s a waiting game until those get approved

.. 2 days ago. LOL!!! I'm just an anxious human

Wonder if anyone sent to the Dallas lockbox recently. It feels weird being out of status and not having a NOA to show

I appreciate the advice guys!! I’ll go look for a smaller chain near me and just go in and see. Y’all took away a lot of my nerves!!!

It's been delivered to the PO! Yippie.

Hmm, I probably will have to wait until I get a receipt or NOA on my 485 since my I-94 expires in 2 days then. I’ll look into it, thank you!!

Interesting! I googled and it said banks require the physical card

Hi y'all!! Okay, here's my situation. I applied for my SSN 2 weeks after coming to the US. Nov 16th I think. I never got the card in the mail. I have my SSN, but not the card. We had an appointment to see what was going on, but we didn't bring all my stuff like birth certificate etc, so she couldn't do anything but give me my number. Ok, that's something right? (There was a lot of time between applying and this appointment because there was a 3!!! week wait for appointments and then I obviously made one on the day they closed for the death of president Carter....) Now, my K1 expires jan 30th. 2 days. I called to see what they exactly needed to issue a new card. She said because my I-94 expires within 15 days, they can not issue me anything until I can provide anything about my currrent status. I'm GUESSING that a receipt of filed 485 would be enough, but she couldn't give me a clear answer on that. I don't have my receipt yet, so I can't do anything yet. But this whole thing is just vague.. Does anyone know what exactly I need, or if I even can do anything until I get my I-765 approved? I'm honestly clueless and feel defeated lol

No worries haha, you're usually so good with editing it out, figured I'd help

Oh awesome, I didn't realise it was a thing!! (You can still see Jaycel's name in the file name)

I'm not sure exactly if every consulate does the same thing, but mine did, I had to leave my passport with them after I got approved for the K1 visa, and I didn't get it back until a week+ later. Just incase you were considering traveling right after the interview!

I have everything in an envelope and we're sending it off later today.. SCARY. I'm worried we don't have enough evidence for the marriage but fingers crossed.

I emailed the ones dat did mine and they emailed it to me in a PDF. Funnily enough it has big letters saying 'GIVE COPY TO PATIENT' but they never did.

Same! As long as they don’t send me out of the country haha. I would love to get my advanced parole before Christmas, so I can visit my parents. But we’ll see! I wish I knew!! But I doubt they know themselves honestly
