Chinese versus Americanized names
shutterme2 replied to mercator's topic in Culture & Language Discussion
After a few months of being married, my wife asked me to choose a English name for for..... So after careful consideration I gave her an English name, and she was very happy for a couple of reasons. I put a lot of thought into choosing her name and for the meaning. We even shortened it to make it a daily life name, that didn't sound so formal. Several months later, she told me that she didn't like to have an English name and wanted me to call her by her given name. She only wants to be herself, and by being herself she has told me that she doesn't want to be somthing that is not! So we have nick names for each other and that has worked out wonderful!!!! The only time she calls me by my real name is when she is being serious and wants to talk to me about an important matter. so when she does that,,, I know something serious is about to be discussed! -
I am looking for a current Email Address for GUZ, I called the Embassy and the message gave a Address that is not correct. I need to send them information regarding change of address in China. Our P-3 should be going out soon and don't want any more delays in our case Also if someone has a phone number that will allow me to speak to a live body without getting the run-around that would also be helpful Thanks, Scott

shutterme2 replied to Beermann's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps
I can't seem to figure out how to find where my case is or what # I need to track it. I recieved a letter from the NVC and it says.... My "I-129f K-3 was approved, and my petition will be fowarded to GUZ for processing visa cases originating in the country where you were married. This is all I have recieved regarding my approval from NVC INS Receipt Number MSC............. Case Number GUZ................. I have not recieved any other documents, such as a " 797" # Can someone lead me in the right direction??? -
Flying Air China Monday...
shutterme2 replied to Beermann's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps
I have flown both, and since you are leaving from the U.S.A. I think their policy is not strictly inforced when you leave the U.S. When you travel inside CHINA domestic, they are very strict on their baggage restrictions. When I have brought more than the allowed weight no matter how many bags, they will make you pay the overage fee per KG. Make sure you have RMB or credit card to pay, they don't except USD I think when you fly international they are more forgiving!!! Good Luck, and safe enjoyable trip -
What is your timeline, from the beginning till now? I'm a "K-3er" also.... I would like to know how long it has been for you up to this point. I think that you would be spitting in the wind at this point since you just sent your info for the "I-129F"

A 7 day holiday in China in October
shutterme2 replied to notrevorich's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps
But you have to remember, not all of the employees take leave at the same time..... So that's not an excuse you can use for their exceptionally slow process!!! Good try -
Well from recent interviews, it seems that the ( Most precious pearl from the sea) AKA(^%#^$@)..... Is developing a tremendous amount of luster in her growth, that is a good thing from past experiences that have been posted on the boards I think we need to let this thread rest in peace, It may be in all of our best interests

129-F NOA 2 Hard Copy
shutterme2 replied to shutterme2's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps
Thanks for the heads up on this guys!!! -
I just recieved the hard copy of NOA2 for my I-129f (K-3) I am a little confused.... maybe some of you old pro's can clarify my question NOTICE TYPE: Approval Notice Valid from 8/29/05 to 12/29/05 What do the validation dates mean???
-
The PROFESSOR AND MRS!!! Have prevailed!!!! CONGRATS
-
Now that I recieved 129F "K-3" approval, when and how do I know when my case gets fowarded to NVC, what is the process at this point, time frame, and what will be next??? If someone that knows the process in detail, from 1st hand experiance.... That will be helpful
-
I called USCIS in regards to my RFE for my 130, they informed me that my 129f is dependent on the 130. How can they approve my 129f if USCIS has not recieved my RFE back yet? Does anyone have a clue???
-
I was sent a RFE for my 130 regarding my marriage certificate, Apparently the 1st Translation that I sent in with the petition was lacking a few items. I had a chinese friend do the translation of the 1st one So now I had a company do another certified translation here in the states, I had my wife double check to make sure that this one is correct. Cross our fingers that they accept the new one. I am only sending them a photo copy of the original

Just got an email from MSC that says my "129F" for my K-3 has been approved!!!! Only took 18 days

sending money with western union
shutterme2 replied to david_dawei's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps
This is how you need to put it down on your form where it asks for the FIRST NAME you put down her FAMILY NAME Where it asks for her LAST NAME you put her FIRST NAME I have sent money before using WU and that is the correct way!!! -
It's been 100 days since CSC received my "I-130" I have only received The NOA1. I think this is way too long for the NOA2? My "I-129F" has been 82 days Still no touches, no approval? Can anyone give me some advise

shutterme2 replied to shutterme2's topic in General Visa Discussion & First Steps

Just a little reverse philosophy.. why hide it when you can wear it ! and a tip is always at hand.. uh.. on the leg at least... I know you have to very careful in china, they are known to steal the shirt off your back, but your pants???? That would be a funny sight!!! -
