    Passport Stolen.

    in General Immigration-Related Discussion

    Posted

    So basically my passport was stolen, I have notified the country the passport was issued from so it is no use to anyone now.

    Do I need to notify anyone in the USA?

    I have a conditional greencard so does that matter?

    My passport had the original visa to enter the USA but is it worth anything now I have my greencard?

    Thanks

    Interview set

    in Adjustment of Status (Green Card) from K1 and K3 Family Based Visas

    So I got my interview date in the mail on Friday and it is set for July 23rd, it was a bitter sweet thing as it is nice to know I am moving forward but also that I am terrified of the interview.

    What is the minnimum you need for this?

    I have

    marriage license

    copy of car isurance with both our names

    bank accounts with both names

    will try and get added to cable and water/power etc account

    We are unable to add me to the mortgage as it was a special one and will cost more if we do, do you think that will matter?

    Will get a bunch of photo's from things we have done since I have been here.

    Copy of contracts for wedding reception as we are having ours in Sept.

    Any suggestions to make this a painless interview?

    I've had touches all week (but not yet today) and I'm still waiting to get my biometrics letter. They amended the incorrect A number on my NOA as well. I'm hanging out for the mail man to get here....I hope he has my biometrics letter today.

    Silly me but I forget how do I tell if I have had "touches" as I am eagerly waiting for my bio appointment letter

    I have updated the OP with this info:

    PAYMENT

    It's important when writing the cheque that you write:

    "One Thousand Ten and 00/100" or it might be returned.

    Here is the USCIS link outlining the cheque writing requirements: http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/men...00045f3d6a1RCRD because if you're like me, it doesn't make sense to write it that way and I wouldn't have written it like that but their wish is our command :)

    I just looked at a chq my girl has written and that is how she had done it so must be an American thing, looks strange to me but it works for here I guess.

    Note 2: There is a huge point of contention on VJ regarding whether or not to send DS-3025 or if you will require form I-693 (immunisations only). The reason for this is, the paperwork clearly states that if you COMPLETED your immunisations PRIOR to your K1 interview in your home country (and thus your medical information is complete in the paperwork you handed in at POE (and subsequently forwarded on)) then only the copy of the DS-3025 is required. HOWEVER some people who assumed their info was complete and sent in the DS-3025 received an RFE requesting they submit a form I-693. Further information is mentioned on this VJ thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=101202 So whether you go to the trouble of obtaining one so you don't risk and RFE and thus a slow-down is up to you. Personally I am in the process of calling Civil Surgeons (CS's) in my area to find our their fee. If the fee is reasonable we might do it just so we don't risk the RFE but at the same time i honestly think my form is fine and I have all immunisations filled in, either with dates or "not age appropriate". I'll let you know what I decide and then what the outcome is. Remember though every case is different, no matter how similar they might be.

    Here is a the Civil Surgeon "phone book" from the USCIS website: https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=of...office_type=CIV

    Here is a VJ thread that lists good CS's and their prices: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...231026&st=0

    So I am deciding about this Civil Surgeon thing and have a couple of questions

    1. what do I need to be able to get this done? I only have a photocopy of my original medical as original was sent with packet and then handed in at POE.

    2. If I choose to not do this what is the chance of RFE?

    3. What is the easiest way to explain to CS what I need done as I am sure there will be a "terminology" difference as I notice it all the time here :)

    Thanks

    Jason
