We had our interview on Tuesday and after a stressful few days, we were all approved today. My minor fake ID issue (20 years ago) did come up with the CO and I had to provide the statute / legislation under which I was charged and unconditionally dismissed (without conviction). Here we come Austin!

We have received our 2NL email from noreply@state.gov, directing us to the entrant status check site which has our interview time. Does a second email come from the Sydney office and / or do I have to reply to confirm we will be attending the interview?

Thanks. I have re checked was not formally arrested or convicted (since the charge was dismissed without recording a conviction or further penalty). Even though the event shows on my full disclosure check. Hopefully we will be okay!

I obtained my court record today and the case was proved, however dismissed with no recorded conviction. Do you think I will have any problems with this at the interview?

Help please! My husband and I got our police checks back. His is fine and he is the primary applicant. Mine has come back with an offence that I had to go to court for in 1998. I have not disclosed anything on my DS260 as I thought that a conviction was NOT recorded. Anyway, the court result on...

Very excited to be current! Just waiting for 2NL now! Does anyone have a recommendation for an international tax accountant? Especially if we are planning to keep our home rented over here. I hear there are capital gains implications in the USA if we sell our Aus home once we move there...

Hi again, A quick question about police checks from the UK. I lived there over 10 years ago (for 2 years) and got my police check done in September 2014. I have not returned to the UK since then, is there any need for me to get a new police check since the last one has not changed? Thanks

Hi, getting document ready as it looks like OC might go current soon! When I need to produce copies of documents, do they need to be certified?

My husband is OCxxxx9xx... do you think it will actually go current or is the number too high because the total number selected for the region is quite low in DV2016?
