I agree with Tony, why take any chances. I would get it filed as soon as possible. Tine

Looks like oldtimers day on CFL. Ella has biometrics appt. 1/8 for Citizenship. Tine

Hey Mick, Ours has been some time ago but it took us only about 1 1/2 months.At interview no questions asked, turned in 2yr. GC and stamped passport and gave her N- 400 for Citizenship and a 100 question study guide. See my timeline below. Sorry it is taking you guys so long.

Congratulations Ed & Yilan Enjoyed having you both here to visit. Tine & Ella

Congrats !!! Tine & Ella

Congratulations, For the new addition to your family and your in-laws visa to visit USA. Enjoy Tine & Ella

Hope your in-laws enjoy their visit. Tine

After we sent the paperwork in. She could have had the interview in one week. My mother-in-law waited one month. That was in Shanghai. Tine

Hey Mike & Yan, Congratulations on quick biometrics appt. Hope you will have your interview soon. We will file in 8 days. Tine & Ella

Ski, Keep us updated on your progress. Good luck to you both. We have almost everything complete. Tine & Ella

She made the decision herself, she told us she already feels like an american and can speak english as well as anyone in her class. It's her choice. Tine

Thanks everyone for your help !!! Tine

I thought I would bring this up again to see if any one can help me find the anwser. Thanks, Tine

Does anyone know if my stepdaughter is covered under N-400 she is 12 yrs old ? I don't think we can use N-600.Do I need to send biometrics fee for my wife and daughter ? I have a few weeks before I will send to NSC. Thanks, Tine

The consulate issued the 1-year visa. But when she arrived customs allowed her to stay 6 months. She could have gone back to China and returned for another 6 months or we could have requested an extension. Tine

Ken, It is not required, I sent one for my mother-in-law before her interview. Tine

Hank, I think your stepson will do well here in US schools. This will be Kelly's 4th year here and will start Jr.Hi in a few weeks. See was a little shy at first but now you can't her to shut up. She hardley has any accent now. See is A-B student and excels in math and english. First year here they worked with english 30 min. each day and after that she was tested and was up to speed or above average in reading and comp. Tine

Richard, Congrats!! And you can send I-134. We did when my mother-in -law got her visa, but it is "Not" required. Tine

My wife and daughter will apply for USC this Sept. At that time they both want to change their names, my wife is changing her first name from Yi to Ella and my stepdaughter is changing her first name keeping her last name as middle name and wants to take my last name. And can be done for free when they become USC. Tine

Back on Aug.28 2005 I posted letters and items needed for the B-2 visa for my mother-in-law to visit us. Maybe since so many here are trying to get the B-2 visa it might help. If someone in Admin. could pin this for awhile it may help. Tine

Worked for us telling VO in the letter we would care care of all costs while here. Tine

I will be traveling to Toronto 6 June for a meeting and taking the family. I will let everyone know how it goes when I return. Tine

Pusbrk, I don't think he has ever looked at any stats. How can you speak for him.Can you show me any stats that there is any more visa fraud from K-1 applicant than K-3. I will quote him "I THINK the K-1 is used more by people commiting visa fraud-therefore looked a bit more closely." Tine

1. I am offended my mcoon's comment about K1 being used for commiting visa fraud. Just because you get married first does not mean it not fraud. 2. I you think about it blue slips K-1 vs K-3. I think I have seen more K-3s get blue slipped than K-1. Dave, do what is right for you and your SO. You can get your loved one here in about the same time. Get married here or there, whatever you want, you don't need an atty.

Darrell. Great news you in-laws getting their visitors visa, I hope our info helped. Tine & Ella
