    Thanks for replying so quickly!! If you don't mind, I'll ask one more question... When I completed my DS260 I correctly listed all of my previous addresses. However, for about 10 months I went back to England and joined the army. During my time in the army, I never had a fixed address and was...

    I'm trying to get a rough idea (for planning purposes) when my visa interview might occur and had a question about confirmation numbers / appointment dates. For example, this year 2015OCXXXXXX650 went 'current' in December; does that mean the absolute highest number getting an interview in...

    Also, once I have entered the US and 'validated' my visa, will that automatically trigger the processing, creation and posting of my physical Green Card? Or will I need to do something else? And, in terms of 'validating' my Green Card, will it be problematic if I go to Hawaii, even though the...

    I have one question regarding this post... I understand that the address I put on the DS-260 is the address that my physical Green Card will be sent to. In the meantime, I merely need to enter the US within the 6 month window after my visa is granted. After I have entered, I can come back to...

    Thanks! That's what I was thinking. One more question... I have seen others mention the issue of proving you won't become a 'public charge'. However, when I was looking at the documents I need to provide, it does not state that I will need to show evidence of this. Has anyone been asked (in a...
