hello, I am just about ready to apply for my first non-lucrative visa at the LA consulate. Has anyone dealt with them before - any tips or warnings? thanks in advance.

Hi we just had our appointment on Friday. Make sure your financials have a stamp from the bank and a signature. We do most of our banking online and weren't able to get a personalized letter from the banks. We had loads of financial translated and they didn't except them (we we wasted over $400 in sworn translations). What they did except was a copy of a cashiers check (we thought of it last minute and were glad we brought it). Make sure your translations are with a sworn translation person not a certified translation. We used a person on the USA list of people.
