Thanks guys.. I finally got ahold of a person, and they told me during the fingerprinting appointment, then they can change the typo... whew...

Hey, got my NOA for my wife's 10 year GC... and her last name is spelled AUEN. Hmmmmm hopefully it was just a typo and not some stupid idiotic government employee who cannot read. Anyway, did this happen to anyone else? When I called the VSC, I really cannot get past the computer to a person, and when I enter the EAC number, it keeps coming back that they cannot find the account. So... will they fix it when we arrive for the fingerprints? Should I keep trying? Anyone know a number besides 800 375 5283? Thanks one and all. Peace out my brothers and sisters in CFL.

Here is another question I have been wondering. The instructions say to have 2 affidavits from close friends of the relationship. Is this a specific form or can a letter written from them suffice, as long as its notorized? Thats what I did, and I mail my stuff this week.. Hmm... damn government paperwork...

We were CR-1, and we just immediately applied for her SSN in our name. Her passport still has her family name. (chinese) She has left and entered the US without any difficutly whatsoever. I say it really wont matter much, once you have a green card, she doesnt need to carry her passport around with her everywhere she goes. Peace

Yup, of course she is worth it. Also, it wasnt a question of too much, it was more like I had heard that the rate was increasing, and wondered if its true, and the date... I submit our 751 in just a month... so I call it a case of making sure.

Yeah, I saw that Carl. I am hopeful that the slooooooooooow moving government wont pass anything prior to Apr 10th, when I send in my application... B)

There seems to be major push back against this on the Democrat side of Congress. It seems the message resonating is that this is a tax increase on poor immigrants, exactly what the Democrats don't want on their record. Makes sense... who would want to be seen doing that?

Ok, thanks. The way things move in our congress, it shouldnt affect me ... phew..

I posted this in the wrong section, so I will try again... I heard the price of the 751 goes up soon. Any idea when this will happen? I dont think we are able to submit the 751 before 4/10 which is in the 90 day window... Any thoughts?

My wife feels that isnt a great gift. I think if I did it for her two brothers, she would use the knife on me.... hahahha...

You will see that everytime you save money, even if its a dollar, you will earn brownie points... Which of course will be taken away at each blunder..

Now its about to change of course. My wife is coming up on her 2 year green card. Goodness gracious, hard to believe its been that long. My question to all knowledgable personnel, what form do I use to go from 2 to 10 year green card? She was a CR-1 visa, and we did not need an interview upon her arrival here. Is the form needed a 485? And I was on the INS website, and I thought I saw I will need a 325.00 fee to file. Is this right or am I just numb from all that has happened in the past couple of years? Hard to believe I am a government employee huh???? Even I dont understand the paperwork. Have a great New Year all. Michael & Lu Jing

I agree with David on this. I went CR-1. She arrives with her number, and the green card arrives within 2 weeks. Cant beat it. This way no interviews left when she arrives.

CR-1 here.

I think she was walking slowly... taking her time and window shopping along the way...
