Re: Domicile Question

I went on my own as I prefer to be alone in stressful situations, but that's just me. I didn't get the sense that they needed her there or not, it was just documents they wanted. The conoff did as...

Re: K1 visa approved on Tuesday! :)

I got that guy, did he sound sort of Dutch?

I finish work three weeks today, and it can't come soon enough. I am SO unmotivated.

Re: Australian police check question

I'm afraid I don't know as I didn't do it in the end and narrowly got away with it. I was there for just under 1 year so it was not an issue.

The UK police took about 2 weeks, so as a very rough...

Re: How long is the current wait for Interviews?!

I waited about 6 weeks from sending back my DS2001 to receiving notification of the interview date.

Of course that varies and as everyone here points out; what is true for one might not be true...

Re: Visa approved!

That's funny! And a little bit understandable to be that precious after it's been such a long road.

Now I'm going to worry about my house burning... ;)

Re: Visa approved!

Thanks, all

This forum saved me a lot of head scratching and frustration.

I had a dream a few days ago that I entered the US but forgot my magic envelope. That was annoying, and let's hope...

Re: 6 weeks and nothing at all... ?

Thanks,

I did not submit any documents other than the DS2001 and DS230 Part 1 that they asked for. I was instructed to bring all the rest of the evidence to the interview. I have copied it all...

Re: Proving domicile at the interview

Thanks. That makes sense, I was just failing to describe it properly. She has signed up for agencies, I have asked her to dig out bank details and deposit some UK money in that account. We're also...

Re: Proving domicile at the interview

Yes, that's good thinking. I have registered with three agencies in the area, and i will ask Steph to do the same so I hope that covers the base. I realise that a firm job is the best way to prove...

Re: Proving domicile at the interview

Thanks,

Some of that we can use, but unlike what seems like a large majority of people on the forum, we are not going to ready-made jobs nor are we being sent out by our companies. In fact, we...

Re: Proving domicile at the interview

Good ideas!

I can get a letter from my company too. I plan to quit this week so that gives me room.

We are getting the post room at my wife's company to do the shipping, but i have a lot of...

Hi, folks

I am going for my CR1 interview in a few weeks and I'm wondering about proving domicile for my USC wife.

Re: 6 weeks and nothing at all... ?

Darn!

I have a similar wad of paper stashed away. I get the sense that the ones they're really interested in are the sponsor forms and the police cert(s).

I don't suppose anyone has a...
