Hey, any winners from australia? I'm still waiting for mine, fingers crossed. I think I read there was one winner in another thread.

Hey 'alemitmee' im from Australia, i've already got my visa, had my interview in Nov 2007. So i'm heading over there in May to travel for 6 weeks, then i'll start looking for work in late June. I'm going to start submitting my resume around to some recruitment firms in the next few weeks before...

I also work in IT. I have had my computer science degree since 2005 and have been working with online services for the last few years for the Government. I been writing servlet and portlet based web applications using Rational Software Architect. I have taken dozens of IBM training courses...

I provided both - better to be safe than sorry. I also provided my university transcript. Better to be safter than safe :) But yeah i don't know what the mimimum documentation would be. Thanks

As part of the 'public charge' requirement i provided the following document: - Notorised affidaveid from my brother, including a copy of his job offer and salary. - I also threw in my latest bank account which had about $1000AUD in it. - Just to be safe i included my car insurance policy...

My interview was on Wednesday 28 of November at 8am. I arrived at Martin Place at about 7.30 and found the MLC Building, quite easy to find it’s directly opposite the ANZ bank. I was early and there were a few cafes in the ground floor so I sat and composed myself, I was a little sweaty, as I...

A job offer is an offer of employment and will state things like starting salary, hours per week, leave benifits etc. To get one you will need to start applying for jobs, presumably over the internet. Start looking through sites like monster.com. If you have the right qualifications you may just...

This was my first year in the lottery and won, so there u go. Interview later this month, with any luck will be in the US in May.

Yeah i know this and i know it means a lot more to other people, but its also a great opportunity for me. Thats why im jumping through all the hoops, medical, vacinations, xrays, fingerprints, policecheck, forms and more forms. I do have a degree so i would qualify for a H1 visa but i'd also...

I only plan to move to the US for a year or two. I have no plans on returing regularly to keep my greencard or anything though, im happy to surrender it when I leave.

Thanks for that - yeah citi bank have branches in sydney so i might look into that further. Otherwise i'll just put everything on credit card to begin with until my ssn is issued and i can get a bank account in person.

Hi I am looking into getting a US Bank account before i travel to the usa. It seems like i will need a SSN, which i believe is issued after you enter the us. Does anyone have any information about how/when ssn are issued to green card holders and how if i will be able to open a bank account...

Yeah in my instructions it says to bring it to the interview. I assume it has to be the original, can anyone confirm if a fax is ok. And what exactly is notorised, i assume its an official stamp or something?

I found this article helpful http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Permanent_Resident_Card Check the section under 'Green Card holders and nuclear families' Remembering its wikipedia so do more research.

Nah dont know what form that is. It just had the cost and website for each state. You just have to ring up the local station and make an appoinment not much to it really. Had the medical today, everything went fine. Have to go get blood test and chest xray and bring them back to the doctor...

Hi Guys i'm not sure if you can help, but it cant hurt to ask. I have just realised my passport is missing my middle name. So my passport name and visa name technically won't match. It will cost me another $200 to get a new passport which i dont really want to do, but i dont want my visa...

Thanks for that great advice bahadur007, that sounds a lot more promosing. In relation to the police check in my package, probably specifc to the OC it says 'do not get your police check until you have an interview date'. I also suspect the delay is due to apac creating a backlog of...

This is the reply from the consulate in Sydney: That really sux because i just called the police station to make an appointment for my fingerprint check an the earliest appointment in October 24. I bet apec caused a backlog for them. So after the 2 weeks turnaround for that i won't be able...

Hi guys i would like to reschedule my interview to a later date. I got my package yesterday and my interview is on October 2, 2007. I want to make it later primarily because assuming it is approved on the day i will have to travel before April 2, 2008 (6 mths) and i dont want to leave...

Yes i got my 2nd package on Monday 17 Sept 2007. I was on holiday for a week so it may have arrived a little before then. My interview i scheduled in sydney on october 2. my dv number for OC is below 50. It had info for the police check wth the afp and approved medical examiners. If you want...
