:dance: Oh my heck!!! I can't believe the big day is almost here! My husband has his interview in a couple of days in Islamabad and I'm a nervous wreck....called him the other day to remind him to take his passport. He laughed at me of course because he's organized, ready and excited.

I'm praying so hard he doesn't end up in AP! Any input from any of the members that applied through Pakistan for their Visa would be so helpful right now...maybe it will distract me from worrying too much.

Thanks!

Thank you so much Bankermai! I noticed that you had a great timeline and the last two gentlemen that I can track with interviews have not been AP'd...I hope it's a new trend. LOL

How do you like the US? Is it what you expected???

Thank you everyone for the well-wishes and prayers. :-) I'm strangely calm today....but about 4 a.m. tonight I'll be wide awake and waiting for a call!!!

Momo, best of luck to you in your interview on the 11th!!

You can bet I'll post as soon as I hear something...visajourney becomes a bit like family after months (for some years) of processing and paperwork!

Armani, from what I've gathered that's good news...it means your AP is coming to a close soon. There's another member here waiting for a second interview as well...through Riyadh. Fiaz...you should talk to him.

Good luck Lashbanda!

Well, my hubby should be waiting at the embassy by now...he said he was leaving at 6 a.m. I'm pacing the floors!
