I went through LA and I lined up in the Visitor Line (not the one for visa waivers). I saw the guy at that desk first then was told to go down to the New Immigrants area which was down the very end. That's where I handed over my documentation, signed documents and had the ink fingerprints taken...

Haha oops, it was March! I've fixed it now :) I had to ring up and get my password reset as my account had been locked. I'm in now and it says Card Produced so hopefully that means it's on its way soon.

Did you check the status of your Green Card here - https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do Where did you find your receipt number? Thanks

Hi All, I made it to the States safe and sound. POE through LA was very straight forward - went through the customs line as normal, passport was checked and fingerprints scanned then he sent me down to the end of the customs area to wait for another officer. I had an ink fingerprint taken...

Hi All, bags are packed and I fly to NY tomorrow (POE will be through LA). After months of organising everything the day has finally arrived! Will let you know how the POE goes.

Thanks

Hi Guys, for those that have already entered the US, is there anything in particular you need at POE (apart from the packet from the Embassy)? I know a couple people had trouble with paperwork/photos not being included in the packet from the Embassy. Just want to make sure it goes smoothly. Thanks

Blood work, eye test, general physical (e.g. touch your toes, stretching etc), blood pressure, chest X-ray then they just ask about your vaccination history, check your height/weight and a few general heath questions. I think that was about it. It's pretty straightforward (especially if all your...

I just did a search to find out if there was any info on transferring money and found this thread. Thanks for the tip on Forex :)

Hi Suicide Blonde, thought I would chime in as well as I did my medical in Melbourne. I took 4 photos (Australian size) with me and they only asked for 1. I guess take 4 just in case but Australian size is fine (they're cheaper than the US ones and easier to get).

I got the Name Check Only (from Victoria Police) and that was accepted.

Yep, that was probably me. I thought I was so organised but apparently not! How did you go?

Hi Everyone, I had my interview in Sydney today and happy to report that my visa was approved! I'll be heading over to the States around March 2015. Some tips for the interview (you may already know this but I guess any info helps): 1. Just like at the airport, you'll need to take your shoes...

Hi All, Wondering if anyone can help: I've lived in WA, NSW and now VIC so i'll need Police Clearances from each state. I've had a look at the 2014 forums and there doesn't seem to be a clear answer on whether or not we need just the regular Name Check or the Fingerprint and Name Check. It...

I just received notification to check my Entry Status Request. My interview is scheduled for 8:00am on 21 October in Sydney. Wow, this is getting exciting now! P.S - When I tried logging in to check the notification on the DV Lottery Site on my iPad, it said I was not selected for further...

Thanks guys, I'm pretty happy with my number! I'll be sure to update you along the way.

Hi Everyone, I've entered the last few years and finally got through for DV2015. My case number is 2015OC000002xx. I'm hoping for an October interview. The next VB comes out in August right?
