That's right, our case was just completed on July 7th. Thanks to everyone here! I am hoping that our interview process will go just as smooth as the rest of the process. I already decided from the very start of this process that I would be joining my spouse for the interview. Wish us luck!

Congrats przy Now you have only 8 more weeks to live with your husband together

Thanks Loto!!! I am definitely looking forward to that day.

Congrats! we hope everything runs soon here on out.

Thanks Khaleda!

Congratulations and Best Wishes on the interview!!!

congrats!

Thank you!


Thank you very much!

It usually takes 8 weeks from Completion until interview?

2 weeks for case forward to the Consulate. And another 1 to 2 months to complete interview depends on the consulate. I took an average 1.5 months for consulate interview after case forward, that's all !

Good information to know.... I hope Germany is moving fast. My husband has surgery on the 20th of August. Hopefully we get a date before the surgery, or shortly after. Just not the day of. We'll see.

Can't you just talk to NVC live operator this surgery case and if you're lucky, you probably may get an interview date even before that ? Just a thought...

whoooo hooooo it's always nice to see good things happening.... congrats

When do you suppose I should call? I was thinking the same thing myself... I am just unsure of when I should call.


Many thanks!

since your case is completed, it is the time to call them, before assigning the interview date.

I will call them right now!! Thanks loto!

One more thing - tell them it would be great to get a date before his surgey, not after.

Yup. Got that. I don't want to wait longer.... and plus, he should focus on recovery and not an interview.

good luck przy ! To get operator, 7:30AM is the best or late evenings.

I have 3000 minutes on my cell phone that never get used (until now) and I just got off work. I am going to be bored on VJ and attempt to get a hold of the operator. Plenty of free time.

Oh, another thing, do you think they are going to want proof that he will be operated on?

Just spoke to an NVC operator and she told me that because my husband's surgery is taking place in Germany, that there is no reason to expedite the interview. Had the surgery been in the USA, then that would have been a different story. At this point, she says they are scheduling interview for August (so that's good), but she said to give a call back next Friday to see when out interview date is. Hmm... informational, but not much help. I am wondering if I should give it a try in a couple days to see if this information is in fact correct. Seems correct, there would be no legitmate reason to expedite the interview because the surgery is in Germany... but I am going to be there for the surgery and the interview. If I could get everything done in one trip, then it would be perfect. I can't afford to miss work that much and I can't afford two plane tickets....

Good luck!

Thank you!

Good luck for getting the soonest interview date

Thanks a lot!

Congrats and Good luck to the interview!

Congratulations !!!!!!!!!

Hope you get a fast interview date

Congrats przy. Hope ur husband's surgery will be okay and praying for his speedy recovery.

Thank you very much.


Thank you!!


Thank you for the well wishes.

Congratulation..Best wish for your interview..

Thank you!

I just called the NVC for the hell of it and found out we are scheduled for an interview on August 13, 2008 at 8:00am. Yay! This is perfect as he will be having surgery on August 20, 2008. Someone is really looking out for us! Thank you everyone here and wish us luck!!!!!

I'm hoping I am not making a bad decision... well, more so a forced decision..I won't be able to be in Frankfurt, Germany for my spouse's interview. The flights are just too expensive at this time. I have tried adjusting dates/times and what not, but the cheapest I can find is still $1300-$1400 (with taxes). I am planning on sending my husband the copies of our paperwork that I was orginally going to bring: The I-130, G-325A, I-864 and the DS-230. I also have another I-864 if a joint sponsor is indeed needed. In addition that that, I am also sending along our photoalbum, plane tickets, greeting cards, phone calls and emails.

I hope that's good enough. Can anyone recommend anything else? I think I have all grounds covered. Of course, I know already to bring the interview invitation, passport and medical exam results. Am I forgetting anything else important that will help our case even though I can't attend his interview?

Thanks.

Best,

Przy
