    DV Lottery 2016 Applicant

    We hust got accepted for the 2015 green card. We were not married at time of applying for the lottery. When I came back for further processing we got married a month later and then filled in our ds260. There was not an issue at all. We didn't have to prove our relationship or anything at the...

    @EmilyW we where looking into having him in the U.S. at first but being right in the middle of the pregnancy when we had our interview we decided to stick with aus. Plus it's apparently not too hard to activate his green card once he is born. Insurance was another issue too. We didn't really...

    Emily We are planning on going over on the 25th March for a holiday And to activate. We will then return to have the baby boy then head back over. Once he's old enough to travel. We are due in July so waiting until he's born to go would put us past our medical dates. And we planned everything...

    Sweet. Yeah I got a copy for my records too as I had none until we applied for the green card. Our POE is going to be on the 25th March. We planned a holiday so we got esta waivers last week Incase we did not get approved. Not that it matters now :)

    DS-3025 is the vaccination records. When you got your medical done I believe that the doctor should of copied this and given you a copy. We both have a copy inside our X-Ray Scans. Maybe the DS-3025 will be inside the package they give you as it was part of your medical anyways.

    A distraction would of been good. I was more just going over in my head what I was going to answer the CO questions. But again once you get yo there and you present a strong case then all should be good. @Britsimon Yes being over prepared is the best way to go. I would of kicked myself if...

    Deb, If you were stressing about not get through, then I don't know what I was like. We had so many different stuff going on while this whole green card thing was happening. Had to Get Married straight away when we found out we had been accepted for further processing, We were planning...

    Emily, yeah I have been a bit of a dark horse as we were not 100% sure we were going to get approved. But looking back at it now we had nothing really to worry about. AussieGemma, Yeah i think he did have a beard, but to be honest the whole thing was so surreal that I can't really remember now...

    USA HERE WE COMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! What an experience today was. Finally after 10 months, a dream has come true, from stressing about marriage, being pregnant and getting chest x-rays done we can happily say it was well worth it. Although it was a very nervous experience over the hour or so we...

    I figured this would be the case, not getting AP resolved by the end of the year is not really an option. I can't just move to the US for 1-2 years without my family. Chances of her winning the Lottery are slim and I guess we don't want to take the gamble. Best option here is to go and get the...

    I think I will have to speak to the doctor tomorrow, and find out what exactly the risks are, if its possible to delay and would the risks be minimised. If we kept with the interview date and I got accepted and the wife got refused or put on AP, what would be the worst case scenario? Would...

    Yeah its a very hard decision, X-Ray has become better over the years, but when you have to wear a lead apron to protect yourself, alarm bells start to ring. Will have to ring up when I get home from work and find out what the go is 100%. If there is an option not to do we would definitely go...

    We are due in middle August, so I don't know if postponing the interview would be a good idea at this stage. Potentially running to the end of the fiscal year. I have read about the minimal risk involved in X-rays, however still don't know if we want to expose our unborn child to risk, when we...

    So... I have another question. Has anyone had the medical recently and been pregnant? Do they do they Chest X-Ray? Seems like it has to be done and there is no way around it according to the US website. If the applicant is pregnant must she have a chest x-ray? The U.S. Centers for Disease...

    it seems to be just one page online then asks you to print a confirmation page, to print sign and upload. I haven't gone past that part yet as wanted to make sure I was doing the right one first

    We haven't even decided on anything like that yet. We don't want to over commit ourselves. Worried if we plan everything and get everything in order then we won't get the green card and be full of dissapointment. Lets see how I feel after the 10th March :)
