Congratulations man, I'm really happy for you, wish you the best
 
Congratulations @Sam16XXX wish you the best in your life. I would be grateful if you can give a glince about the submitted documents. Thanks
I have provided:
Arabic birth certificates+ copy + Original Translated ones too....
Arabic marriage certificate + copy + Original Translated one too....
Arabic High school cert. + copy + Original Translated one too....
Arabic University cert. + copy + Original Translated one too....
Arabic Military cert. + copy + Original Translated one too....
Feesh wa tashbeeh + translated one.....
No criminal record from my 3rd country which i'm working in.
2 photos for each applicant with their size spec.
Sealed envelop of medical test, no need to hand carry the X-Ray at the interview.
Aramex registration bar-code
2nd notification letter.
330 usd per applicant ( you can pay by credit card as well)
The address in USA you intend to land in.( if its different than the one you filled in 260 form )
I was preparing many bank statements, property,car license in 2 countries,...etc.....but they haven't asked me to show them any financial proof as i believe that the officer is very professional to recognize each case by case as for some cases i read here they ask who paid you the 33o$, who is your sponsor and ask for many financial proof to avoid being public charge.
I hope this will be useful for everyone to be well organised......
 
What about if I still didn't do military service? I am still 21 and haven't finished college yet. What certificate should I bring to the consulate? [I'm free to travel outside Egypt even if I still didn't do my military service, but I need to know what paper to bring about that?]

You better send an email to the US embassy in Cairo asking about your specific case.
