  4. My wife and I have been married about 3 years. My wife's 2-year conditional residence green card was set to expire on March, 2013.

    We recieved a courtesy reminder letter in December, 2012 that told my wife to renew her green card no sooner than 90 days before the expiration date.

    We sent a package to USCIS on February, 2013 that included a check for $590.00, a cover letter, a completed I-751 form, and evidence of the relationship (joint tax returns, joint checking account statements, photos of us together, etc.).

    We recieved a receipt for the fees ($590.00) in February, 2013 that said my wife's conditional residence status is extended for a period of 1 year, and my wife completed her biometrics appointment in March, 2013.

    My wife has not recieved her 10-year green card yet, and she is 3-months into her 1-year extension. We are thinking that we should write a followup letter or call USCIS to see when my wife might recieve her 10-year green card.

    When I petitioned my stepdaughter, I received alot of help from Visa Journey members, so I am hoping for some advice here on my wife's green card renewal. Thanks.

  5. It did ask for the Case ID when I made the payment. I put in the MNL number. If the registration number is not the A-number, then the MNL number should be enough I suppose.

    So far I have not received any letter from USCIS or any email from NVC as concerns Notice of Approval.

    Thanks for the congrats. This is a big event.

  6. My stepdaughter just got her visa package, and I paid the USCIS Immigration Visa Processing Fee http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=3a2bb75e8109b310VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=fe529c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

    The fee was $165.00. Is this the correct amount? When I was looking into the fee about a month ago, I thought it was about $300.00. Was the fee amount changed recently?

    For the A-number, I used the registration number on the visa. Is this the correct number to use?

    Thanks

  7. My stepdaughter just got her visa package, and I paid the USCIS Immigration Visa Processing Fee http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=3a2bb75e8109b310VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=fe529c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

    For the A-number, I used the registration number on the visa. Is this the correct number to use?

    Thanks

  8. We checked the box on the DS-230 indicating that we wanted to apply for a social security card.

    We will followup with SSA using the instrucions you gave when my stepdaughter arrives.

    Glad to know that no new affidavit of support needs to be submitted and that the I-551 stamp will serve as proof of permanent residency.

    So my stepdaughter does not need to interview with USCIS and do medical exam and biometrics for them once she gets here?

  9. My stepdaughter recently completed her interview in the US Embassy in the Philippines.

    The Embassy kept her passport, and gave her a letter to take to the NSO to request the NSO to send them a copy of her dad's death certificate.

    The Embassy said the passport with the visa will be mailed to her within 3 weeks.

    I know we need to pay the new USCIS Immigrant Fee after the immigrant visa package is received and before my stepdaughter boards the airplane. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=3a2bb75e8109b310VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=fe529c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3023/wwwh3023/useful-information/qs-and-as-uscis-immigrant-visa-fees/qs-and-as-uscis-immigrant-fee.html

    What do we need to do to get my stepdaughter's social security card and a green card once she gets here?

    We requested that she be issued a social security card in the visa application. When/where/how will she get it?

    When/where/how will she get her green card? Will a new affidavit of support be needed to be filed with USCIS, or will they use the affidavit of support we filed with NVC?

  10. I will make sure my stepdaughter brings the following receipts with her to the interview:

    Medical Examination Receipt from St. Lukes

    IV Fee Payment Receipt (See email ”(2) NVC Receipts”)

    AOS Fee Payment Receipt (See email ”(2) NVC Receipts”)

    I will also make sure the new USCIS Immigrant Fee is paid after the immigrant visa package is received and before my stepdaughter boards the airplane.

  11. My stepdaughter has her appointment letter for her upcoming interview in the US Embassy in Manila. She would like to have an English/Tagalog translator or bilingual interview officer during her interview.

    Are most/all of the interview officers bilingual?

    Can my stepdaughter request a bilingual officer on the day of her interview, or must she do this a week or so before the interview?

    Thanks

  12. My stepdaughter has her appointment letter for her upcoming interview in the US Embassy in Manila. She would like to have an English/Tagalog translator during her interview.

    Will the Embassy provide a translator tor her?

    If so, must she pay for the translator? How much?

    If so, will translators be available on short notice on the day of her interview or must she request one a week or so in advance?

    If not, where might be the best place to find a translator for hire?
