Thanks for all the replies. A quick report on the process for anyone in Shanghai: Medical Wife did medical exam in Shanghai on Monday, results were ready for pick up Friday. Got three shots. Note: instructions we had said 5 pictures were needed - we got to the exam center and they needed 10 photos (said policy was just changed). They let us complete the exam and drop off another 5 photos the next day. Price: 1,447 yuan (more than the 1,100 yuan on info sheet we had beforehand). Police report Went to Suzhou last Saturday, got report done, but they had to get it notarized and translated, which couldn't be done on same day. Process was notary office -> police station -> back to notary office. They mailed it to us Tuesday, received in Shanghai on Friday. Overall very smooth process, Suzhou police were great - very accomodating, and they were working on Saturday! We have our interview next week. Final question if anyone can help: For I-864: I have payment slips, tax returns and bank statements from my job in Shanghai. They are all in Chinese - will the interviewer likely ask to see them, and so do I need to translate them into English? Since I will be resigning this job as we move to U.S., this should not be that relevant to financial support in U.S.?
