[seems like VJ cut my comment off, lol]

And like you said, it was a long journey for you, but I'm sure it will have been worth it!

1. Documents for the IV package either have to be originals or certified copies.

2. They have grandparents' info on birth certificates in India? O_o Anyway, no, it shouldn't matter. And again, it has to either be the original or a certified copy.

Did you follow the template and put your case number in the subject line? Did you include both names, both DOBs, and both email addresses in the body?

And it takes a few days for a bill to be processed and appear as paid. It's only been ONE business day since it was paid...

First off, please don't respond to one of my status updates with an irrelevant question. You should have PM'd me. To answer your question...

Who did you send the email to?

Those numbers are assigned to each case individually and are unique. No one but you has those numbers.

Grats on getting the SS#! And grats on getting a second interview, hope it goes well and they accept your salary expectations.

And yup, having a good week. School and work as usual.

Hi hi! Yay for FB bringing people together, lol.

Wow, you haven't seen your fiance since Feb?! That must have been so hard. I certainly wouldn't be able to go that long without seeing my love. I'm sure when you do see your fiance, it will be a wonderful reunion!

Hi! My Thanksgiving was good. Spent it with my husband's family.

And yes, you have both US and Canada taxes. Lots of fun XD

If it's been 3 weeks, then get your butt to a SSA office and apply! Not sure if you can get the number right away, I didn't even ask when I applied for mine.

Good luck with your interview on Monday!

And btw, finally took my passport out of my purse

If you do need a supplemental sheet, then I uploaded a sample of what I used. Of course, change the info so it reflects yours

It's 9 now over on the east coast, so good luck with the SSA office! Keeping my fingers crossed you can get your number!

Sounds like you'll be busy like I am, school and work.

Your second message got cut off so it ended abruptly

And you have a great weekend as well!

Lol, I still carry my passport around in my purse, even though my green card's in there as well XD

And hopefully you get your SSN soon so it saves you a trip to the SSA office and more waiting.

No problem!

I'm on the forums a lot, so I've read a lot and take notes

Operator didn't know what they were talking about. Usually you get that first email a few days after getting the number.

And the person below me doesn't know what they're talking about. The AOS and IV are separate tracks. You don't have to pay the AOS bill first. And you don't attach a scanned copy.

Thanks for the add!

Haha, get those things packed! And I'd be so giddy as well being that close to POE!

Well, glad you found one already, and on sale too! Just hope your husband doesn't find it

And grats on getting the green card! And yup, you need a SSN to apply. Hopefully you get that soon

Yeah, I can imagine how school prevented you from visiting. I'm not going to school this semester so I was planning on visiting my husband in the USA, but I got denied twice in August, so I'm not planning on going back anything soon in case I get banned.

Anyways, I'm glad you finally get to see your love in 10 days! And like you said, it was a long journey for you but I...

Yeah, there's a maximum amount of characters allowed. You probably went over

Anyways, I'd suggest getting to the consulate around 6:30am so you can get in and out quickly. Make sure you triple check you have all documents. And be organized! Makes giving documents in a lot easier. And make sure you don't bring anything not allowed inside (backpacks, electronics, etc). Goo...

You'll have to pay the IV bill before sending in the package, don't forget. You need the bar-coded cover sheet from the payment portal (which is only available after paying the bill) before mailing the package.

And I may be done with the visa part, but I've got to deal with ROC currently.

You're very welcome!

Glad you liked the supplemental sheet. I had to use two of them for the DS-230, so wanted to share that one with you to make it easier

And yup, I like my job. It's nice to finally be making money again since I quit my last job March 2010.

Yup, I'm on vacation Finally responded to your PMs too by the way XD

To put an image in your signature, you need to upload the picture somewhere and then link to it in your signature. Mine's uploaded to PhotoBucket, if you're curious

*sigh* Got a letter in the mail from USCIS saying they couldn't process my fingerprints, so I have to go back to get them re-done. The appointment is set for 9am (on 6/13) >_

300 days left until I can file for Removal of Conditions... XD

A year is quite long to prepare! Just make sure you're generating proof of relationship in the next year, so you'll have plenty for when you can apply!

About 2 hours left! Heading out for my interview now!

About to head out to the airport to fly to Canada later this afternoon! I'll be visiting the US consulate, again, this coming Monday to hang out with VJ members NikiR and A&C. Can't wait!!
