Strange that your case got stuck at NVC. Is there anything out of the ordinary you can think of? It's K-3 right? Did you file I-130 in parallel?

Name checks are done at all stages and centers which can cause a name hit or make the petition be held in AP at NVC. I know the Dipsticks are also Pakistani in background and they are stuck at the NVC level too. Just like in AOS stages some petitions can be pulled for intense review and my understanding is it is like a computer spitting out one in so many cases and a few get unlucky on this step as well.

To everyone in AP you can contact a congressman but do not get upset if you never get anything more than a canned response. I have all the letters from our attempts at finding out why my husband was in AP and if they could tell me when to expect it to finish. Since I found no answers this is when I got proactive and did all the research to understand the AP processing. And my motto is it never hurts to try but do not put your hopes too high for an answer from them.

Good luck to all the upcoming interviews this week!

Please pray for me and my wife as her Interview is tomorrow at 8:30 am Pakistan standard time (11:30 PM EST Tonight)

Khurram

Good luck Khurram inshallah every thing will be fine.

Thanks!



Thank you!

Congratulations on the approval!

Her POE will be JFK, please share your experience with me about process that are they mean, how long she would have to wait. Also, she is flying with PIA, she doesnt need a transit visa for UK, does she?
ALI

Mary,
Please update your list , I am no longer on AP

Thanks Ali

My Wife's Interview Experience:

When she entered the embassy they asked her for the interview letter and passport plus fees $100 and then told her to take a seat, after approx an hour she was called on to a window where she was told to give all forms, I-134 and only tax returns, medical report and Police cerificate and was asked what language she would like her interview in and she said Urdu. She was again told to take a seat. After an hour or so she was called to a window where an American lady was sitting and had a pakistani guy standing next to her, she said to he guy to tell my wife that she needs fingerprints, but my wife understood her so she said that where do I do that. The Immigration officer smiled and said do you know English?" and wife said yes and my wife said that made her really happy. She asked her
1. Who is the petioner?
2. What does he do for a living?
3. Where does he work?
4. where does he live?

and then one unusual question
5. Does he like it in America?

After which she said I am satisfied and you are approved, you will get you visa by Courier Amex within 30 to 60 days or maybe sooner, when she saw my wife got a little nervous she said" I am so sorry for this delay but I have no control over it and I will push as much as I can to get to you sooner" and she gave her the Pink slip.

My wife came out a happy person

Now this might not be 100% as I am just telling you what she told me from islamabad and maybe I'll learn more once she comes back home and we talk in detail.

Khurram

hi khurram,'

congratulations

n pray that the small A.P ends soon

not of much concern when the lady told that she will receive her visa in 30 days

i cant tell u this is a great news

Mala

I for one am bummed. I really thought your wife was going to get her visa. I guess whatever is written will come to pass. All I can say is hang in there buddy. Talk to her and keep her spirit up.

Thanks Mala, keep us in your prayers and thoughts!

Congratulations for a succesful interview. AP for women is usually short and sweet so Goodluck with that!

She is so excited that she is out shopping I guess the CO gave her a lot of hope as she is way more excited then me. I guess This is way better then them giving us any objections. Thanks For the support buddy!



Thanks Fak

Congrats on the approval Khurram. I'm sorry to hear about the AP. Man, you really deserve to be with her ASAP!!! You've come a long way, and inshallah this will be a record low AP period. Take care, and we'll keep in touch.

Congratulations !!!!!!!!

Hope AP will be over soon.

Thanks Zeyad



Thanks

You are almost there Khurram...I m sure everyone here can relate to what you are going thru....inshallah you will reunite with your wife soon....

Thanks! Inshallah!

Hello Everyone,

My wife's interview is in June. I will appreciate if anyone can post the whole process of going to the embassy. I heard that the person needs to go to the convention center where buses are boarded, that bus drops at the embassy etc etc. For example, if the interview is at 8:30, what is a safe time to be at the convention center and how big lines are at the embassy, how long does it take to clear all the security and be ready to go the window. Any other related information will be helpful also.

Also, is there any wait (days,months) after the interview in case of CR-1 visa. Because everyone here is going for K-3 except me.

Thanks

Chicago

I will let you know in detail tomorrow as I will talk to my wife tonight as she just came back home

Chicago,

Please post your timeline. Thanks

I sent a letter to NVC via USPS priority mail. Its been a week and online tracking system is still saying 'In Transit'
Does anyone know how long US Post Office take to deliver 2 Day Priority mail? Snail Mail !!!!!!

My experience with USPS online tracking has been the same, their system does not provide updates as often. There was a time when I found out via phone call that the letter had been delivered, but online it was still saying in transit.
