  1. I used the standard option with this company and it went by UPS and the only issue was a slight delay at customs which got resolved but apart from that I found them very good to use. Everyone's experience will be different though. Sorry to hear that this happened to your wife though.
  2. In terms of arranging my medical last year (in June) I was told to have about 10 days between my medical and interview so I would adhere to whatever number of days the current recommendation is
  3. Sorry that this has happened to you but I agree with everyone else on this post. Know your own self worth and value. I think you know and it looks like now you know what you need to do. I wish you the best of luck in resolving this.
  4. I agree - the timelines do change usually month to month
  5. It took a week for us to get our NOA after our petition was sent. I wouldn't be following someone off social media for this process though. Either check the USCIS instructions on their site, ask people on this forum or consult with a lawyer.
  6. I was thinking this earlier. When I had my medical I was there for about 1-2 hours.
  7. This is an interesting update. (I had my K1 visa interview last August) Do you mean you have to go the same day after your medical or just some time in between your medical exam and interview? Just curious to know
  8. Just a waiting game now I guess. I'm filing mine in about 2 weeks. Just making sure we have got everything ready before filing it
  9. I just can't believe that is is taking so long to get a social security card. I wonder what the issue or the delay is?
  10. Glad it's all ready! Bet you will be relieved after you file it tomorrow or when you get the NOA1 for it?
  11. Hope it gets resolved soon! How is the AOS preparations going?
  12. Great review - a train is definitely not cheap in the UK!
  13. I had this annotation on my K1 visa when entering the USA and the Border Official at POE. I gave him the sealed document package from the embassy and my passport. He took my Biometrics and asked me some questions and then stamped my passport and gave it back to me but he never said anything to me about it. I think you should be ok!
  14. I agree that you should get the SSN as soon as you can. I went for my SSN appointment about 2 weeks after arriving in the USA as most people I had seen on the forum on various posts had said that was the best option. It definitely makes things easier. Best to get done ASAP and have one less thing to sort out!
  15. I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe see if it comes this next week and if not call back the week after?
  16. Thank you - how long have you been waiting for since you actually applied for it?
  17. Brilliant - thank you for letting me know!
  18. This a useful graph. Do you have the link for it or for the website you got it from at all?
  19. It might be worth looking at getting an account with a local credit union as sometimes they can have better rates, better service, etc. than some of the more mainstream banks. Those are some of the reasons why my fiancee is with her current provider. Her provider also doesn't require a monthly fee for the account either. Definitely worth looking around and enquiring into all the options - what their requirements are to set up a new account, what they can offer and see which one is best for your needs.
  20. That's the situation I have in terms of getting a bank account and joint bank account with the bank my fiancee uses at the moment as I need a Driving License or State ID but they said that while my passport was ok they couldn't accept my Visa or I-94 as they had less than 60 days on them until they expire so looking at the REAL ID checklist for the California DMV the only option that can get me this is the EAD card. I have seen some states that do allow you to apply for one if you have the NOA1 for the AOS though.
  21. That is very true as well! I would agree as well that photos of wedding should be included as well.
