Tong and Wei

There are a few ways to do this. 1. Have employer issue a statement and take it to public notary service(Gong Zheng Chu) to be translated and certified. I'm not sure if the consulate will accept it because it isn't issued by police office. 2. Go to police office (the office that has your Hu Kou) and aks them issue one and then get it certified. 3. In Beijing, the notary service has a standard form that the police can fill it out and stamp then the notary service will translate and certify what the police filled in the form.

Received I-129F email notice on 3:34pm and I-130 email notice on 6:18pm I set up forwaring my email to my cell phone. So starting from this afternoon my cell phone keeps making that beautiful sound---for each notice, I received 3 emails! What a wonderful Christmas gift!

Congratulations!

I see what you mean. I think it is a typo or someone didn't set the clock right.

The message you hear should match what you see online.

Did you enter the first 3 letters? You have to enter them before the 10 digits.

What is the difference between "name check" and "administravive prcessing"?

I understand K visa is different from CR1 at NVC. But after the petition arrives at GUZ, is the process of k1, k3 or CR1 different from each other? If yes, what's the difference? Do all of three need name check? When actually does name check start, at GUZ or at NVC? Although I started my journey a couple of monthes ago, I'm still new to the procedure. Please forgive me for my dummy questions. Thanks for your help!

Somehow I got impression that the folks on this forum (marraige between US and China) averagely wait longer time to get P2(NOA2) than the poeple on visajourney.com Am I right?

ShaQuaNew, thank you very much!

I downloaded form DS-2053 but it isn't readable.Does anyone have a readable copy share with me? Many thanks.

donahso, thank you very much for your help!

What about in case the one issued at BJ doesn't cover the time lived in hometown. Does it still count? Many thanks!

Thanks for your replies. After I read your responds and all threads, I'm still not clear about one thing. If currently one's "hukou" is in Beijing but he lived in his hometown for a number of years before moved to Beijing, his hometown(police dept and prior employer) now is refusing to issue the record due to absence of "hukou", what can I do? Is the notaried certificate from Beijing good enough for the interview? Does Guangzhou consulate buy it? Or do I have to get one from the hometown? Anyone has the experience? Could you please share your story with me? Any advise or suggestion is highly appreciated.
