Sorry, disregard my advice. I just assumed everything would be centrally controlled/monitored through KCC. I wasn't aware that we could contact US Embassy in Sydney.

I would call them. I've called a few times and they have been very helpful. Just enter 'zero' rather than waiting to hear all the info when you first get through. The last call only cost about $2 from my mobile which was far less then what I expected. Hopefully you get some answers soon.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't aware it was available. Our status is 'ready' so it's good to see the info is correct.

Safe travels Erika, it's been great having you on here so please drop on when you can. Have an amazing life in the US!!

Thanks for the info. I emailed Medibank today and they emailed back asking for our address and phone number and reason for medical - immigrant or non-immigrant. I had provided our names, DOB and told them we wanted an Immigrant Visa. Hopefully I'll hear from them tomorrow to confirm appointment...

We were frustrated too for submitting DS260 late. I was checking so often for 2NL and called KCC 3 times. You will know when your interview is scheduled when you log into check status or call KCC in a few weeks (I called from my mobile and surprising it was only $2). We went current in December...

THANKYOU!!! I've just checked and our interview is 10 Feb @ 9:15, FINALLY!!! Funny thing is I'm on the computer looking at the Jetstar sale to Honolulu, now I'm going to book! Congratulations on your interview Aim!!

I just can't justify paying for 4 airline tickets doing an an activation trip. Because we spent so long holidaying in the USA, we have seen a lot of places which helps on where to move to.

I know, poor little worms. Surprisingly some survived and we ended up donating them to the kinder before our 7 1/2 month US trip. I'm not going to miss the Bushfire season when we move to the USA, it's a stressful time for us living deep b the bush.

Bugger, just checked for our 2NL again and nothing. I was told last time I phoned KCC it would be between the 15-25th Dec... need some patience. Just frustrating to have been current since December and no interview yet. Hopefully it doesn't push everyone else out too much. But we did lodge our...

The CFO of a company I recently worked at lived in McKinney and he loved it. I'm generally looking at towns that are smaller but researching everything with commuting distance of Dallas. I've been torn about the weather as it's not that different to our Summers. We spent about a month in Texas...

We are selling everything and are going to scan kids artwork, old photos and other keepsakes that are scannable. We are selling up everything and not shipping because things are a lot cheaper over there.

You lot can really talk! Getting back to cheese...we searched everywhere for decent cheese on our trip in the USA and their cheese is so much different to ours. Cheese in a can, we had to try it...it wasn't bad at all, made a nice snack when we pulled our RV over for a rest stop grilled some...

I have just started researching every town within commuting distance of Dallas/Fort Worth and Denver (and larger surrounding towns with Corporate/Industry). Here is my research so far...will post the final one when it's completed. I posted some info on Texas a while back in this forum as it's...

I thought I'd researched Utah but not well enough. I didn't know the air pollution was that bad. Colorado gets pretty bad too if there are wildfires and the smoke can last all Summer. I had a conversation with the guy at Kathmandu he had lived in Utah and Colorado and wondered why anyone would...

We were planning on settling in Utah but changed our mind due to the inversion layer, not so nice areas on one side of Salt Lake City (I know every City has these areas) and the sometimes difficulty fitting in with the Mormons. Even in Corporate environments it could be difficult from what I...

One way ticket, that must have felt good! I've started researching flights but don't want to book until after our interview.

Congratulations Bradley, good to hear your interview went so well. We are planning on moving in May 2015 too, where are you moving to? (Sorry not sure if you've already said)

Yeah if it was that easy we would consider it. But with all the info on here I'm confident our Sydney interview will go smoothly.

Loved reading your story Kiwione!! Congratulations and I hope your job transfer works out too.
