Hello VJers!
I had my interview with USE last May15th 2008 for my CR1 visa. April 28th, I already paid my doc verification with metro bank to avoid the delay in the issuance of my visa. But its been like a week and a day now but my visa wasnt yet issued. After my interview, the consul gave me a paper which contains a checklist of the documents needed according to Sec.221g of the immigration Nationality act that is needed to be submitted. I read it and found that there's no other check listed for me to complete but only on the part which contains: WHAT TO DO NEXT: where they check the part WAIT TILL YOU HEAR FROM US. iT says: WE MUST REVIEW YOUR CASE BEFORE IT CAN BE PROCESSED FURTHER. PLS WAIT FOR A LETTER FROM US TELLING YOU WHEN U CAN RETURN TO THE EMBASSY WITH THE DOCUMENTS MARKED ABOVE FOR ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. I was just wondering here coz there's nothing in the paper that they marked. Is there anybody in there in VJ who has this same case???? how long will i need to wait for my visa to be released and delivered to me? help out!!!!!!

do u have any idea WHY they are holding ur visa that long and never released it that fast? does it have to go with the doc verification reply by NSO?ohhh well seems like were not-so--patiently waiting here sob sob sob
well truthfully i think our case is not normal,
we filed just before the rate increase, so we got caught in that mess,
our K-3 got caught up in that administrative closing mess early this year,
we also got caught up now with the brand new document verification process.
I am not whining or anything, it's just the way it goes sometimes. i am just venting at times and also trying to let people know that sometimes , things go longer than it's supposed to. From what i have seen lately, things are moving faster now so I applaud everyone's progress.
I just want this to be over so i can kiss my wife good night before i go to sleep

who knows this might be a blessing in disguise for you...sometimes delays happens cus God is working on something BETTER than what youre planning for.. always make sure you call to follow up your case. did you just paid the doc verification after your interview? cus if u did..then theyre on the process of verifying it most likely.
no we paid april 1
Interview April 24
like I said I am just venting

AR means administrative review.
Grace and Lorraine are the people that answers the call at the US embassy numbers so have your hubby call them and ask about the status of your visa.
i was under AR too for two weeks and five days.

dont be sad...i think its a case to case basis..look at the bright side, at least you still have more time to spend with your family,cause once youre in the states it wont be really soon that you can come back in the Phil to visit your folks...so make yourself busy and spend it with families

Hello VJers!
I had my interview with USE last May15th 2008 for my CR1 visa. April 28th, I already paid my doc verification with metro bank to avoid the delay in the issuance of my visa. But its been like a week and a day now but my visa wasnt yet issued. After my interview, the consul gave me a paper which contains a checklist of the documents needed according to Sec.221g of the immigration Nationality act that is needed to be submitted. I read it and found that there's no other check listed for me to complete but only on the part which contains: WHAT TO DO NEXT: where they check the part WAIT TILL YOU HEAR FROM US. iT says: WE MUST REVIEW YOUR CASE BEFORE IT CAN BE PROCESSED FURTHER. PLS WAIT FOR A LETTER FROM US TELLING YOU WHEN U CAN RETURN TO THE EMBASSY WITH THE DOCUMENTS MARKED ABOVE FOR ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. I was just wondering here coz there's nothing in the paper that they marked. Is there anybody in there in VJ who has this same case???? how long will i need to wait for my visa to be released and delivered to me? help out!!!!!!
