I just saw that Turboguy's sig says that he and his fiance exited AP at NVC on July 6 (that's like today) and that the documents are on their way to Moscow!

Congratulations, Turboguy!

YAY TURBOGUY!!!! Such great news! Hopefully the rest of the process goes much faster!!! Good Luck!!!

Awesome news! Congratulations Turboguy and fiance!

Thanks everyone. I really do appreciate the nice thoughts and congratulations. I am not sure yet exactly what date we exited A/R. We are down in Grenada and since we had been mentally prepaired for a long wait we are spending the Summer together in the Caribbean. I called NVC right before I left for here and there was no change. After we arrived it seemed like most everyone who was on a similar timeline as us exited A/R right before the end of June. I had high hopes that maybe there would be good news when I called yesterday and there was. We were jumping up and down and probably everyone in the other apartments here thought we had gone nuts.

So now we are talking about all the things that go along with the interview and it is nice to be talking about proofs of relationships etc and not what we will do next as we wait out a never ending A/R. Once again, I get to watch timelines and speculate on ours and to check the interview schedule on the Moscow Embassy website. It is fun to be out of the big black never ending hole.

Thanks again for the good wishes.

Congratulation. Finally you can continue for the final stretch ! Best wishes for the rest of the journey.

Congratulations are definitely in order!
Best wishes on a smooth journey forward and a quick and successful interview!

Congratulations!!!

Great News

Thanks again for all the good wishes.

Awesome news, turboguy!

Just think, now the rest of the process is going to fly by! You've been in limbo for so long, the next 2-3 months are going to seem like nothing!


Good luck to both of you and we'll be standing by for that "visa approved" message.

Congrats
Its always good to hear that someone is passing a hurdle especially those that have been waiting so long.

Again congrats and best wishes on the rest of the journey.

Thanks Slim and Thomas for the good wishes. Yes, I hope the rest of the journey is quick and easy.

The timing should work out well. We will be in the Caribbean together until mid August and that should just give us enough time to get everything ready for the interview.

Congratulations for hanging in there Turboguy! I knew there was light at the end of the tunnel for you too. I still can't believe Marina actually has an interview end of August. I retained the lawyer in moscow we used to finish seeing us thru the interview . Your roller coaster ride will be over soon , and maybe we can move on. We can handle the rest of the customary red tape once she is here, , because at least we will be together. Hope you went out and celebrated at least one night there on the island

Awesome! I'm happy for you and your lovely fiancee, Turbo! Godspeed for the rest of the journey!

Cograts!!!! If your a curious critter like me you can call the State Dept at 202-663-1225 to get your interview date (you will need your NVC case number). Sometimes the US Moscow Embassy site does not update for weeks. Good luck!!!!

Congrats Ray,

I am glad that you can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully, soon all of this Dept of Homeland security cr@p will just seem like a bad dream.

Thanks Voyager, Bills, Blues and Jordoc. I appreciate the good wishes.

That is the first time I ever knew you could call the Dept of State and get an interview date. I do have my MOS number right here and may give that a try. I have been checking the Moscow website every day since I got the news but no updates yet and they are up to the end of August with their schedule.

We are in the Caribbean together until mid August so there is probably not a lot we can do by knowing anyway but still, it is nice to know and to be able to think about all the million things you need to be doing.

Yes, I think it already seems like a bad dream but we just tried to make the best of it and to be together as much as we could during our long wait. We are still excited that the long wait in A/R is over.
