We are selling mostly everything, putting things we can't put with in storage with family, and taking just our clothes, computers/small electronics, some art and our dog (and my vinyl collection :p) Considering just taking it as prepaid excess baggage (except the dog :p ) our furniture is old...

I don't think they allow it from or to Australia unfortunately. Their website states "Australian law does not allow pets as carry on or checked baggage". .... I've looked at all the airlines but as we have a French Bulldog, Qantas is the only airline who will fly her (with an indemnity waiver).

We are also taking our dog! We got a quote from JetPets...which was absurdly expensive and they skirted around my questions about a breakdown of the costs and questioning their $700 customs fees (there's no customs fees to bring a dog into the US). Got a quote today going direct with Qantas...

Yay we are current too!! how exciting!!! Though we didn't submit our DS260 till mid July ... fingers crossed we still get a Nov interview!!!!

I've been waking up and checking the VB :P ...and then checking again later in the day!!

Waiting for the next VB!!!

Hey EMS - are you a low 4oo's number? we are high 400's so not sure if we will get through in November, but fingers crossed we do! Who knows what the next VB will be!!

Ah okay, I thought you were moving shortly after interview ... I think it would be helpful to have the money in the bank from your parents for the interview, at least you can then prove to the consulate if you they ask to see documentation.

Out of curiosity, if you don't have "thousands of dollars" how do you plan to move to the US? We do have savings, and even still I"m nervous about the costs/getting set up/having money to support ourselves before getting work!

I'm high 400's so I'm thinking I'm going to have a December rather than January interview now..unless they jump 100 on the next VB! Though who knows how the numbers will jump between VB's, it all seems even more unpredictable now! Exciting!!

Hi! We are OC2015000004XX so we are guessing we will be a January interview? :) About to submit our DS260 as we had to wait for our wedding last month! Currently brainstorming to remember all our previous addresses and employment history O_o so many years/addresses to remember!
