its 11.16.09 and still no updates!

Just received an email update! USCIS Approval notice of my I-129F Petition on 12/15/09.

On Dec 24th, i received notice that the NVC received petition and will forward to BGN within a week! YAAAA

Things have been moving really fast, the Barbados Consulate received our Case Dec 29th and sent it to my fiance on Dec 30th. He didnt receive it until Jan 8th and we sent back the Instructions on Jan 12th. :)

We have the interview date! March 2nd!


Interview day: So today was the interview today in barbados, i was able to fly down and attend the interview with my finance. It is amazing how they treat you at us embassy, like your a #.
Anyhow - the process was going ok - we were first in line and talked with the first lady who took our papers and everything was smoothly we had all the forms with no issues or questions. she informed us to sit down and wait on the american consulate for the interview. We waited for 2 hours until he called our name.
once we went up there they asked the normal questions, how did we meet, how long, when do we plan on getting married, then he started to drill my finance, mind you they speak to you through the microphone glass window no privacy while your standing. my finance understands english but its hard for him espically when he is nervous. They started to drill him on his current job and reasons for being in Saint Vincent, after ward he goes on to state we were missing the DS-157. There were no forms off this such delievered with both packet 3 and packet 4. its basically the same info thats in the Ds-230 and ds-156. anyhow as i began to fill in the form he brought a piece of paper standingt, everything seems ok with you relationship and you sent a lot of evidence but we need more time for adminstration and will contact you within a week to either send us back your passport or for more information!!!!
i was in shocked, so we went aside and filled in the Ds-157 and gave it back to him, and he began to drill us on the schoool, work and his army service from 10 years ago!!! i was soo upset, he didnt drill us about our relationship or the fact we only seen each once (well twice now that we are in barbados today) but really!!!

anyhow - so now we wait.

has anyone been through the wait one week adminstraion process?????

ugh! i cant wait one more week!



SO i called the Office on Monday March 8th - the adminstrative review that we were under was because my FInance is born in Syria, they had to complete a background check with the Dept of State. I just called Today Fri March 12th and he is APPROVED!!!!!

We have to send his passport and a air way bill so once they issue the visa they will send it back to us. They said 3-5 days!

IM SOO HAPPY! ;)

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
