I can't waittttttttt!! COME ONE COME ONE NVC SEND OUR PACKETS TO THEIR RESPECTIVE CONSULATES! I agree with Jen, they have NOOOOOO REASON TO KEEP THEM!!

Howz everyone doing for a Monday?

Lisa

What is the wait time for a interview in Aaman? Hopefully Yazied is in the US before your year @ VSC is up!

thanks sarita, me too! I wouldnt mind just interview date before the year mark :blush:

Well, it has usually been about 2 months, but the last 2 k visa guys he has known or heard of in the last month were scheduled in a month! yaaay. The first half of April would make me a VERY happy woman :D

Jenn,

I finally got Yazied to get his police cert last month, I cant talk him into the med exam before he gets the interview packet. Tucho will probably regret not doing when you told him, when he's running around like a chicken with his head cut off trying to get everything done ;)

Where is GS? Is she too good for a thread now that she's approved? :P

I've stuck around and its been 3 months! But dont expect me so much, once Y gets here :lol:

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

Prince and Angel - I am routing for you too! You had the RFE so at least you know your file is being looked at. Looks like you just got stuck for long, like me...my petition was approved day 287 from the I-130.

We're here for you, definitely!!! By all means, complain, vent, and let out frustrations. That's what we're here for. Also, if you like, join us on FB. We really vent there :lol:

I feel a little better, but still pretty tired. I came in late so now I'm stuck staying late if I want my hours :angry:

Everyone at NVC - check your files! You might have case numbers assigned by today :dancing:

Lisa, I can see it now! Me: "But honey, I need to talk to Lisa and my friends!" You: "But habibi I need to talk to Narina and my friends!" Both being pulled away from computer by our husbands :lol:

Then they'll do this 3_8_14.gif

:lol:

How long did it hang out at the Visa Center before they sent it to the Embassy for the K-3??? They really have no reason to hold on to it.....
