SCOTT Y LETI

You are asking questions that do not pertain to any particular visa.

He just have to pay the fee at banco de la nación. There is one at the embassy of Peru.

I recommend you to print a lot of photos since you met him/her and take them to the interview. By experience, when I went to the interview the asked me for four fotos of our marriage and had with me a big album since we met us.

I am agree with appl21 you should write Juliana Catalina Ruiz Torres de Johnson in other names because it is the way it will appear in her peruvian ID and don't forget to write the zip code, you can find the zip codes here http://www.ohperu.com/codpostal.htm

In our case we didn't sent photos in any package. I preinted the photos and I put them into an album and they they of my interview i took my album and when in the window they asked me just for four wedding photos. Then she said: you have a big album with a lot of photos.

Congratulations!!!!!!

Finally after a year and 6 months of waiting our I-130 was approved!!!! God is good, right when we were going to give up all hope we got the approval.

Hi guys!!

I just wanted to ask if having an Agency or a lawyer will help you to be approved faster than having none or if you just self applied. Im on CR1 Spouse Visa process.

Thank you for your inputs

In our case my husband did all the paper work and everything was into the timelines that USCIS show in their website. The most important is to follow the instructions and read carefully. Or Follow the examples that there is in this web page too.

When my wife arrived 4 moths ago she received to letters at the port entry in Lax, one of them was informing her that she received the CR1 visa and the green card will arrive at home, also that she has to remove condition status during the 90 days before the green card expire. About the social security she had to go to to social security after she received the green card.

You are right, he must to take pictures of the wedding, they asked me 4 and I tokked from the album( wit(i had fotos before wedding about weddin and when we traveled after wedding) I took with me, also i took the IV pacage with me just in case(of courses copies) Ah they aldo asked me about the receipts of the payments made via interenet to uscis(printed).

hi all, i received my Green Card about two weeks ago but no SSN yet, now i wonder if we should re-apply for my SSN again? i remember we didnt check the box for SSN on my DS 230. should i wait? or go to SSN office center and ask? some ppl said i should wait for it, cuz they will mail it to me. some others said i should ask the SSn center :-/ ????

im sorry if i shouldnt post this kinda question here, i just dunno where to post it. thanks.

I had to go to the social security office taking the greencard and passport, and after that i received the social security card.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!

I would like to know if you validated your peruvian wedding here in Peru at the Usa embassy? and what did you do here?

My husband american citizen a he is a bit confused about what are the steps to follow in USA? or what are the forms that he needs?

But RENIEC also give you a a certificate that you can use in other contries, I mean it is not a simple one that you can use only here in Lima.

Thanks

Hey any Peruvians who have gone through this...

Did you send in the RENIEC registration with your I-130? The embassy website's page in Spanish says that you have to have RENIEC certification for all docs (even Lima), while the page in English states that this requirement is only for docs outside Lima. (I sent an email to the consulate asking them to clarify this on their website... probably never hear from them, but will be pleasantly surprised if I do.)

My stepson's birth certificate (from municipality of Miraflores (in Lima for you non-Peruvians playing along at home)) states that it is from RENIEC, but our marriage certificate (from the municipality of Jesus Maria (also in Lima)) does not state this. We did get the certificate registered at RENIEC (what a nightmare!!) and I have that document with me. When choosing which to send to USCIS (and before looking at the embassy website) I went with the certificate as it has our signatures on it. The RENIEC doc has places for signatures, but we were instructed by RENIEC not to sign... so it appeared to me that that one would appear fishier to the USCIS folks... now, of course, after having sent off my I-130 packet, I have begun to second guess myself.

I was having my wife's birth certificate translated to have for whatever comes up when she is here, so I sent the RENIEC doc off to be translated too. That way, if I get an RFE for this I can fire it right off.

I just thought I would throw this out to see if any others from Peru had gone through this and what your experiences were.

Okay back to worrying, second guessing and obsessing over my FedEx tracking number (I expect to hear fanfare tomorrow morning when it is delivered to the LockBox).
