Olivia, this is the Egyptian filing system:




laughing.gif No wonder passports are so easy to get!! They know they will never let you out of the country. Who cares if you have a passport??!?!!?? One day to get a passport & 2 years to make it out of the country. Bureaucratic efficiency at its finest.

Oh... Shukran awey for my passport ya basha. That was fast! Zay el saroukh!! Now, I can travel to any place I like... America, or London, or Austr.... HEY HEEY!!! OWWW!!!!!! *help*

then Wael, why would it take another guy on here 4 weeks to get his MC paper ??? obviously someone else had to wait more than the standard 15 days that the website says... Adam is not the only guy waiting...
2nd thing we was told that its done and being sent to the Cairo office ... and Cairo mail is slow... so I assume sometime this week he should be getting it



Tam i'm so sorry if anything i have said sounded offensive to you in anyway , again that was not my intention ... and the best luck to you and Adam .


for the people who have posted some rude comments to my posts and some personal attacks to me in person , i would say i have used to this kind of agressive behavior here on MENA forum and that's why i haven't been here lately .
the thing is i just can't find myself keep going on and on with some useless woman , uneducated , and most likely they don't even know what they are talking about .. so i will leave it like that and i'm not gonna be on defense with some people who their only intention is to come to MENA forum to see their daily soap-opera .. sorry i'm not going to be a part of that !

most of you MENA women come here to see other people in pain and having problems with no intention to help in anyway .. and i can imagine you when someone try to help .. that must be so BAD , right !

so you are right from now on i have to concentrate on my own .....

NOW i have an anniversary here to start celebrating kicking.gif kicking.gif

wish you all be happy


Well, don't go down in flames like some misunderstood genius. Try making a living from your dreams, but please be sure you always decide in favour of what you love over what merely makes you popular.

Listen, buddy, you are the one coming here on a public forum insinuating that someone's husband is cooling his heels in terms of doing what it takes to get his visa so who is the agressive one? I'm only pointing out that this could have been done in a pm. How would you like it if someone stated something here about your marriage?

Far from useless, just ask my kids and my boss, have my bachelors in business admin AND my cpa, and I know exactly what I'm talking about. I actually agree with you that something seems out of whack with the whole movement certificate BUT it doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that your statement on here was rude and insensitive.

rolleyes.gif Right Wael but instead you are just going the passive- aggressive route with your above diatribe? OK Wael you even confirmed that you were implying something sinister about Adam's motives and I find that rude and un-called for. Now as for your other comments, I just consider the source. I doubt anyone will cry over their Wheaties if you leave. Too, you sure are pretty judgmental for someone claiming to be above the fray.

Wow alot of comments since I last posted... interesting stuff...

Let me assure you there is NOTHING my husband can do that would make his MC paper appear or come any faster right now... its in the mail going to Cairo office and he will go again to Cairo this week to see if it got there. He got with the best people he knew that could help him. And He wrote a letter of concern and complaint in the gov website email address of the Passport Office... still no reply... kinda like the stunt the Embassy does with their emails ... they reply when they reply.
The Alex office has some issues bcz it still isnt there and its been 7 weeks. Something is wrong with them there bcz i was with my husband Sept 9th when he applied there.
7+ weeks of waiting for us has been a test of patience for my huband and I. Egypt is majorly unorganized

*side note* MOST of the people on VJ dont know hardly ANYTHING about me and my husbands personal life and the 2 that do , they understand where Im coming from ... it matters WHO u know. GOD doesnt give us more than we can bear... rose.gif

Anyways, Adam will get it soon from the Cairo office... I believe it

I called DOS today and asked them to find out IF it really is NECESSARY for us to get the MC paper... and that its been 7+ weeks of waiting for the MC paper... they told me that if the Embassy doesnt get the paper and passport before the end of this month then his security checks will start all back over again ! crying.gif

but Im being hopeful and praying that he will get it on Saturday or Sunday... then he can send it on in to the embassy and hopefully get his visa BEFORE Thanksgiving! I would LOVE that alot !

OMG Tamara that is B.S. I thought that they were going to mail it to the Embassy? I think Adam needs to go camp out at the place where they get the MC and demand they give it to him. That is just crazy! Well thank God the month has just begun so there is still a great chance that he will get it soon. Hang in there hun!

8+ weeks and still waiting for the MC paper with tears in my eyes cray5ol.gif and trying to have hope of this... it doesnt seem right... he was told maybe wednesday, maybe thursday... its always maybe this or that... i just pray that it is for real...

this process is very emotionally torturing... im sorry to always get on here and vent and be sad... but most all my friends and family have no idea what I am going thru with this process... they cant understand this.
I work 2 jobs 6 days a week to keep my mind busy, but it still doesnt help or take the emotional pain away... I still think constantly of all this... Most of the time I dont pick up the phone any more when a friend calls bcz I know they will ask how me and adam are and when he is coming... I dont know anymore, I dont know anything anymore... i just keep hoping and praying for this process to be over with and my husband be here with me... I just want to be happy in life... and he makes me happy... I just want my husband. crying.gif

No apologies lady, we all understand what it is like to love like this. That is what we are here for to be that shoulder to lean on in times like this. You are correct that nobody understands unless you have a long distance relationship. Friends, family, coworkers, they can only speculate but still have no idea how hard it is and how much worrying you do when going through this. My prayers are with you and I feel your pain Tammy. I hope that you hear something very very soon. Take care of yourself.

Tamara,

rose.gif So sorry for all this waiting and mess for the two of you. Waiting here and not being able to do anything in this situation has got to be maddening, especially when it sounds like you are close to getting the visa once you have the MC. Hang in there!! We are all learning big lesson in patience and strength through this whole process.

Best wishes to you and Adam. heart.gif

Tamara, I feel so bad for what they are putting you through!!! It's is enough stress to test a saints sanity. Keep your faith and I hope this is all completed soon. I wish there was more I could say, but I really feel so bad about how you have been dealt with... heart.gif rose.gif I never realized how hard life could be till I experienced this process.
TamaraLovesAdam
I think the fact that my husband applied in 2 places for the MC paper slowed the process down... from what I understand... It is being worked on and hopefully he will get it next week.

Washington DC was no help to me whatsoever... they told the senators office that ....



Dear Mrs. Dyson,

Thank you for your email. I spoke with the Department of State and they informed me that the movement certificate is a request specific to the consulate in Egypt . This is requested when the beneficiary has a US citizen parent of Egyptian origin. I hope this helps.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
J.H.


That absolutely makes NO sense bcz my husbands parents are NOT US citizens and neither have they stepped foot into the US... and when last year we filed our G325A it said where his parents were born... and that his family never been in US ...

SO obviously the senators have people working for them making ALOT of money working 8-4 M-F for NOTHING!
the sparrow
Oh I would be ripping mad and calling that senator's office if they gave me an answer like that. Have you tried calling DOS about what they told that office? (No wait, that's useless, they'll just tell you that you'll have to deal with the embassy headbonk.gif ) I really hope he gets that MC soon!
monnik
Dang it ! Tam, that sucks! I think the part about the parents being in USA applies to a different situation. When applying for a passport for an American baby born in Egypt, you have to provide a movement certificate for the Egyptian-born USC parent.

It doesn't apply whatsoever to your case!! The senator's office was probably just as confused as we are right now. Have you written them again to tell them that that situation is completely different from yours? Maybe they can contact them again.

Good luck, Tam.....

Try to send an email to this director at the Ministry of Interior: click here..... NOW!

Its hard everyday waiting on this mc paper 9 1/2 weeks... i just get so upset about this cray5ol.gif ... we were told check on Saturday... so in 12 hours I shall see. Nicky girl, you know we are trying... its not fair what they are doing to us ... adam has been good dealing with my crying today...I tried to call u... but you was sleeping... lol its ok... i will call u again soon. Im back to work tomorrow 830am -530pm took off from walmart for 2 days bcz of high blood pressure
TamaraLovesAdam
I also sent a long email to the Senators office aide that is looking into my case... she said she will check into it and get back with me as soon as she hears something... who knows when that will be...
but believe me, i sent her a LONG email about what Dept of State told her about his parents being US citizens...
Im thinking about going back to Egypt in January... a big maybe ... depending on how things go with his MC paper...*IF* they give it to him this week or not... bcz if not, then his security clearance starts all back over again... then that means he wont be with me until after February next year... and that is *if the embassy doesnt request a newer MC paper... this process has emptied my spirit... cray5ol.gif it seems like my life is full of ups and downs and heartaches... the people i love the most in life always get taken away from me.... even though adam isnt taken away from me hes being with held from me ... its just not right cray5ol.gif
*Maureen*
I hope your senator can help you on this. It seems that this is way out of the ordinary. I wish you will receive happy news soon!
Aymsgirl
Just checked in on ya to see if there were any updates on that mc paper. After what I read about his parents not being USC and never been here this is down right ignorant and really makes my blood pressure go up!! I'm still praying for you dear but I am hoping that somebody in our government jumps all over this. Two months for this paper is ridiculous and then to get answers like you did.......OHHHHHHHHHHH it makes me want to scream. Good luck and keep us posted lady. Hang in there , we all care for ya!

Heres what the embassy wrote to the Senators aide who wrote to the embassy on our behalf about the MC paper. We applied for k3 visa so I am confused what IV cases mean... Kara or anyone else... what do u think?

To: Hayes, Jennifer (Chambliss)
Subject: RE: Regarding DOS


Ms. Hayes,

Here is further clarification directly from the embassy. They say the "movement certificate" is used in IV cases when additional verification regarding time in the US/Egypt is needed. Please relay this to your constituent.

Thank you.

"IV" just means "Immigrant Visa" (even though the K-3 is technically not an immigrant visa, the consulates tend to group it under that division.)

What's a movement certificate paper? unsure.gif

Its a paper requested from the Embassy and it tells whether the guy has travelled before or not... it is requested I believe mostly or only in MENA countries and its from the Passport office there.

My husband NEVER travelled before!

Im happy and sad ! Im glad they want it and that they want to give him a visa but Im angry and sad bcz no one will give him the MC paper ! Its a heartbreaking and depressing feeling.... crying.gif

Have you thought about paying an attorney a flat fee to go ask someone about the paper? I bet you an egyptian attorney and a couple hundred dollars could get it fast...some one wants a bribe..
TamaraLovesAdam
Not even an attorney could get that paper.... Its not at the Office... so we are not going to spend money for that bcz we know its not there... The Embassy called him again yesterday... so 2nd phone call in less than 24hours... so its making some eyes and minds to see that something is going on for us... Plus my two Senators and myself emailing the Embassy...
jessNgeorges
You are saying this govt office is not giving any answers on why this paper is taking over 3mths? It just doesnt seem logical. ok maybe if he was a world traveler....possible that it would take slightly longer.....but hes never been out.......im sure this office isnt booming with business for these things..hope you can get some straight answers soon.
