Congratulations! 🥳🥳

Sorry, what does PI mean? And when you can send it? And how did you calculate that the NVC are sending out the visa packets every two weeks (Every other Tuesday)? thank you ☀️

Congrats! Let us know when it’s issued! 🥳

Hello! Should my fiancé check “yes” although he doesn’t make enough money? We’re going to have his Mom as a joint-sponsor. Do you think/know he should check “yes”, and on the question 19 he could write that he’ll cover as much as he can, but overall the money coverings will be from his Mom? Or do you think/know that he should check “no” and mention on the question 19 that he’ll cover as much as he can, but overall the money coverings will be from his Mom? Someone said to just pick “yes”, but I want to double check. I watched Yasmin & Suraj video and she didn’t mention the version of question 18 I got. She explained everything else and it was really informative and helpful! I would really appreciate to hear your experience!

I’m from Latvia. I called the embassy of U.S. in Latvia and asked what embassy should I pick in the I-129f form. The lady said to pick the embassy in Sweden since Latvia don’t do the K1 visa interviews anymore

Was it just a regular copy of your original? Or a certified copy? 😅

Wow, thank you for all the info!!

Much appreciated! Haha, yes, you never know - sometimes it's also good to be prepared with stuff that they don't even mention I'm just overthinking, hah

Hello! A new day, a new question I wanted to know what are your recommendations about what kind of documents, statements, apostilled documents should I take with me to the U.S.? For safety reasons, I'm thinking to order a statement that I am not married that is translated in English (from a legit translation company) and get that document apostilled. I know I will need to redo my drivers license in the U.S., but I was thinking to order a statement in English to at least show them that I have a drivers license from my country. I'm thinking to order a certified copy of my birth certificate which is translated in English and Apostilled. I already have a translated and apostilled birth certificate.. would it be worth it to make a copy too? Or it would be just a waste of money? What are your thoughts and recommendations? I really appreciate all of your previous answers to my questions before! It's really nice that VJ is such a big community that are willing to help each other.

Congratulations! Would you mind writing down the documents they asked? And would you mind pasting the list of the documents they asked you in the email/mail?

Exactly! Better be safe than sorry! Noted, thank you a lot!

Thank you for the reply! Good to know! Sorry, one more question - about your birth certificate. Did you bring an original and a copy of your birth certificate? Some people say that it’s needed to have a certified copy of your birth certificate to bring to the visa interview. Did you have a certified copy or a “basic copy” of your BC?

Thank you again for all the information! Just one more question - did they request your fiancé’s birth certificate copy at the interview? If yes, did you get a certified birth certificate copy he mailed it to you? Or you just printed out the original one that was scanned. Also, when you bring your original birth certificate, did you just made a copy of your original birth certificate or did you need to get an official certified birth certificate? This might be really confusing, I hope you can understand what I meant 😅

I was just wondering, if the embassy’s email/mail was mentioning anything about petitioners birth certificate?

But if I have a picture of my fiancé’s BC, can’t I just print it out? Or they won’t accept that?

Did you already have your interview?

Thank you so much! Did you bring your fiancé original W2’s or copies? I’m worried if I will print all the necessary documents and they will say “no, we need the originals” Or did your fiancé mail them to you?

Wow, thank you! I didn’t even realize that! I thought it’s all the same in English even if you’re not married yet! Noted!

Hello! Would be perfect to hear the experience from people who were at the Swedish U.S. embassy! When you finished DS-160, did they immediately offered you to schedule the visa interview? Like did they send you a link in email or? Or did you need to go through a specific webpage to book? Or you just finished DS-160 and waited until embassy mails or emails you with the instructions? I just have heard that people can immediately book an interview after paying for the DS-160, so I wouldn’t want to waste my time just waiting until the embassy contacts me if I know there is a way to book for the interview faster! 😅 I don’t know - I’m confused!

Hello! My mother-in-law and I are trying to go through the I-134 questions. We are a little bit confused and wanted to know what did you guys wrote/did. Do we understand right that the sponsor is the petitioner and the joint sponsor is my mother-in-law? So as I understand, they both will need to fill I-134. So at the question 18 - does my fiancé need to check “no”? As he doesn’t have enough of income. And on my mother-in-law’s form, it would be “yes”? When do I mention that I have a joint sponsor? When I will fill the DS-160? Or at the visa interview? ————————————————— At the question 12 - Beneficiary’s Anticipated Period of stay in The U.S. Do we just write the approximate date that we think I’ll be there with my visa? Even if I wouldn’t be there from that date (we aren’t psychics, haha), it wouldn’t be a big of a deal right? It’s just weird they are asking for a specific date. I hope it would be okay if the months maybe would be the same. And of course we would check “no end date” ————————————————- About question 17. My mother-in-law is wondering, where she can get a proof, like a document that she doesn’t have any mortgages or anything? What did you mention on the question 17? Does she need to mention car, houses, accounts? If you have any tips or experience about joint sponsors, I would really appreciate! Maybe there are little things that we don’t know. Thank You in advance!

When they emailed you about you being able to book an interview, did you already fill the DS-160? I’m a bit confused because I heard before that when your case is ready, then you can fill out the DS-160 and then book the interview.

Thanks for the info! What do you mean by I’m in the last group?

You mean finding an interview slot? what was the earliest you could book your interview? And how did you do it? As I understand it’s after paying for the DS-160

Thank you all for the answers! I would really appreciate if someone could also answer about this one I checked this 👇 but it doesn't mention DS-160 and it says that the Embassy issues Beneficiary with Interview date, but what I understand from everyone that when they have paid for DS-160 they immediately can book their interview date by themselves.
