Good for you. Your got that right it is a lot of work. I asked my lady to fax the biographic forms back to me with her signature on them and they came through illegible. And I still need those photos that show the right ear. What a pain! Title: Ramblin- You can't use faxed copies! Post by: Oscar on June 12, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Re: IT IS FINSHED!!

The INS will not accept faxed copies of any of their forms from what I have read.. You will need her to send you her forms she has downloaded from the net OR you could try to forge her signature I suppose.. ;-) Title: Just to be safe Post by: MarkInTx on June 12, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Ramblin- You can't use faxed copies!, posted by Oscar on Jun 12, 2002
As a catch-all, I had Victoria sign her name, scan it, and then fax it to me. So, if I *have* to add a document last minute, I can get it "signed" using a light box, a pen, and a steady hand. I think I have everything I need... but just in case... Shhhhh! Title: Right ear? Post by: MarkInTx on June 12, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Re: IT IS FINSHED!!

You need photos that show a right ear? Huh? DId I miss something? Title: Mark- He's talking abou the infamous "adit" photos- Post by: Oscar on June 12, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Right ear?, posted by MarkInTx on Jun 12, 2002
It is where the person is facing the camera at an angle, where their right ear shows and the other ear does not. Same as for a green card. It is NOT a passport photo which is a face front shot.. The Doc steen site has a whole section about adit photos.. Oscar Title: Re: IT IS FINSHED!! My petition is on it's way!! Post by: Jack on June 11, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to IT IS FINSHED!!

....it would be great to visit again if you can. I believe that it would compress the events together. An exciting time to be sure !!! Karl Title: Re: In the meantime... Post by: MarkInTx on June 11, 2002, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to In the meantime..., posted by tfcrew on Jun 11, 2002
Yeah... that would be nice... In my case, though, I need to start saving my money. When our interview comes through in Warsaw, I'll need to buy three tickets to America! (I am definitely planning on flying over for the interview...) If I get my wish, and I get a speedy interview, that will put me right in the summer fare hike season! Another case of: Be Careful what you wish for! Title: Re: Re: In the meantime...

Mark, If you haven't sent in your paperwork yet, you are probably looking at November so I wouldn't be worrying about those summer fares... ;-) Title: Re: Re: Re: In the meantime...

According to averages... (Texas average timeline, three months... warsaw 2-3 months after that) I should have her here in 6 months. But I am hoping to beat the average time by two months, and get Stas here by school start... Watch me ;-) |
