Can I know how I can find this famous 95 questions? Is there any link? Thanks, Lucy

Congratulations! Thanks for the encourage. Lucy

First, call NVC auto message to get the date your case left for GUZ. Second, go to DHL website and click EXP XX JUL 2008B to get the tracking number. Lucy

Hi Lucy, 1) We found out they will not mail the visa outside of the guandong province. However, what we have been told is the folks at the Tian yu (spelling, the apartments everyone rents at) will let you send the visa to them, then they will forward it to your home address. The collect a fee for this, but we don't know how much it is yet. We feel like it will be less than the cost of another nights stay in Guangzhou. 2) The CR2 does need to show up with the CR1, but as I understand it the child and parent go to the same window for the interview, and the child is seldom ask any questions. I talked today with my daughter about the interview, and I am certain she would be fine even if they did ask her something. Our interview is this coming Monday, so I will be able to give you absolute answers to both your questions after we return. We are planning to have our visas mailed rather than wait around in Guangzhou . Thanks for the prompt answer. Enjoy the time with your family. A famous Chinese saying, " hao ren yi sheng pi an " . We are waiting for your answers to my two questions after your return Lucy

Good luck to those who are interviewed this month. All of you deserve good life together. Sily questions again: 1. Is it possible for GUZ Embassy mail our Visa to our hometown instead of picking up at GUZ after Pink Interview ? 2. Does CR2 need show up with CR1 in the same window and interviewed by same VO ? Thanks, Lucy

Thank you Credzba. I imagine they will make that possible for K-1 too eventually. Oh well, I'll just wire enough all at once for her to pay for that, the medical stuff, police reports, etc. Middle night shift NVC operator is much more kind, and when you call, do not tell them you need the IIN for online payment, tell them you need the number for your own record. We got our two IIN ( CR1/CR2 ) with this tricks, and it worked. Online payment is quick, and I am sure save you much more time on mail & cash. Plus you need not do any shortcut on the barcode sheet as you can print from online payment system. Try again & good luck! Lucy

Yes,CR-2.... but in my case it will be IR1 / IR2 since they took a long time to process.actually it would only be IR1/IR2 until POE, because we won't have been married for 2 years until next month. NewDay2006, you only need pay $70 for IR1 case, IR2 AOS fee will be covered by IR1 case. But you will have to pay two IV Fee, $400 each, total $800 for IR1 & IR2. We paid on line today, waiting for status update to "Paid". Lucy

Online payment updated today, our IV fee are invoiced, pay online, status show " In process ", hope next Monday, money be withdrawn from his bank, then we can go ahead sending the DS-230 package both for CR1 & CR2. Lucy

My English is OK. I want my husband ( usc ) focus on his job. So far I am doing OK on my Visa Journey since I read ask and obtain a lot of help from another blog. I need be very cautious on all the documents as I do not want get any RFE . Your case is K1 , I am applying CR1/CR2 visa, it is totally different.

NewDay2006, where did you get this form? Are you sure NVC mail this to you under DS-230 instruction package ? I never hear any IR/CR case person talking about this. Pls update. Lucy

2 things Lucy. 1) You can pay that bill online now, and save some time. Here is the link to the James' shortcut wiki we talked about earlier. It has information to help make each step faster (I hope). http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/...8IV_Fee_Bill.29 2) The purpose of the label is to help ensure the package actually gets to the applicant. The mail system to remote areas is often a bit unreliable, and if you can give them a good mailing label, the probability it will get to your loved one is higher. Credz, another question, when we print out DS-230 barcode from online payment system after we pay, is the EMS labels mentioned on this barcode ? As we should send our DS-230 before we get the mail from NVC, I worry my husband will make mistake on the EMS labels if he does not any EMS instrudtion from the online print barcode sheet. I use DHL mailed to him , I write my name and address, but I did not write the sender( Guzhangzhou Embassy ) name and address, do you know if we will have any problem not writing Guangzhou embassy name and address ? Someone is saying we need write down Guangzhou embassy name and address as the sender. Pls help me. Thanks a lot! Lucy Lucy please look at the link Credzba gave to you. It has all the info. The barcode only contains the GUZ number. The sender portion of the EMS label will be filled out by the Consulate at GZ. As far as when to send the DS -230, the instructions in the link will tell you when the right time is for sending this document. Hi, did you look at post#24 replied by Xiaofeizhu under this topic? She is saying we should fill in Sender( Guangzhou Embassy ) name/address too. James' shortcut mentioned about the EMS labels, but did not say clearly if we need sender's name and address, so where did you get this information that we need not do? Just a double check since I do not want with my husband asap and do not mess my documents waste time. Thanks a lot for your help. Lucy I was told to let GZ fill out the sender portion but it really doesn't matter. As Credzba said, the label is used to ensure the P4 goes to the beneficiary's correct address. The return (sender) address is used only if it does not make it to it's destination so it can be returned back to the Consulate. The critical part is ensuring the beneficiary's address is correct. If you use the shortcuts link you were given then be certain and read it closely and read it all and make sure you understand it. If you make a mistake then this will delay the petition. Hi, I understand, but there is no details how to fill in EMS labels regarding the sender on James' shortcut or somewhere else, I hope someone can write something which she/him already done on CR/IR case for this EMS labels.
