STUCK @ NVC for AP

I hope so as well. Is there anything that can be done to speed up this process? I am sure the answer is no, but if they hit a certain number of days wiould I have to get a congressman or senator involved? I know that with USCIS they say after six months to try and do that. I wasn't sure if NVC has a cut off date.

I wish I could say that it would help, but it won't. The NVC will tell you that there is no time limit on AP, the process has no time frame.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

I called my congressman after 15 days. He did inquire on my behalf that day. I dont know if they all will, but what can it hurt???

It can't hurt, by all means give it a go. There is nothing they can do though.

Sorry to hear you are stuck at NVC, but welcome to the thread! Times are going down from what the wait once was, so I wish you a speedy process.
