Here is the answer to that question from the Guangzhou website FAQ's! 17. I don’t understand the concept of domicile. Please check http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3183.html#_Domicile for further information about what constitutes a domicile and how domicile requirements can affect immigrant visa applications. 18. I'm divorced and applying for an immigrant visa. Do I need permission from my ex-spouse to take our child to the United States? The Consulate generally accepts either a notarized copy of the custody agreement currently in effect, or a notarized statement from the ex-spouse giving the child permission to travel. This requirement can vary, however, according to the circumstances of each case, and is ultimately at the discretion of the adjudicating consular officer. <a name="B19">19. What is a priority date and where can I find more information about it? For numerically limited visas, petitions are processed in the order of their priority dates. For family-based visas, the priority date is the date when the petition was filed at the relevant USCIS office. For employment-based visas, the priority date is typically the date the labor certification application was received by the U.S. Department of Labor. You can find current priority date information here. But, like Randy said, it really depends on the interviewing officer.

Here is the Rules and Regulations concerning completion of DS-260 forms. http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2010-08-03/html/2010-19046.htm

You can fill the form out with the exception of electronically signing/submitting , save it to a file and e-mail that file to the sister, she can open using the password you supply her with and electronically sign it and submit. You just need to make sure you complete the boxes asking about 3-party assistance You might want to have a current passport photo of her also on your computer so you can upload her photo to the DS-260. Good Luck, Robby

I used the EP myself and all the initial documents made it to Guangzhou. The NVC is where you submit your financial evidence and I-864. I sent paystubs, 3 years tax returns, letter from employer along with 864, 864 receipt page and AOS cover page. If you are worried about lost evidence, send your evidence to her in China before the interview, she has to hand all her supporting documents and evidence in the day before her interview anyway! I would only send NVC what they request to prevent delays! You will also have to send her application and supporting documents in to NVC also, but wait until they request them! Good Luck! USCIS= checks your background and documents NVC= checks your finances and ensures all of her forms are completed and submitted! Guangzhou= checks her background,documents and conducts the interview!

Hello SJ, I will be there, plan to arrive in Guangzhou on the 2nd of May and hopefully get a little rest and touring done before the interview. I wanted to attend the ACH, but the 3rd of May is Chinese holiday and the consulate will be closed, so I am hoping the interview officer is in a happy and PINK mood on Tuesday for the interview! Good Luck, Robert

I'll be there with my wife!! May 4th Guangzhou
