Hey Mike - we haven't been RFE'd yet but we will be. Incorrect I-864 and he left off our bank statement. Loser. Anyway, I don't understand why NSW Police want to send it directly to NVC. I know of o

Good morning ... :blush:

So, my SIF failed today. About bloody time. Still have no idea what the Embassy had to do with it. Maybe we were gonna get hit with an RFE for 2009 taxes and the Embassy decided it could be provided at Interview. Either way, I don't really care now. No more NVC - well, sort of until I get my interview.

I love youse all ... :star:

Grats on the SIF Deb!

hang in there bro! but another option is to just distract yourself with doing other things. maybe you go to a movie or something tonight? what you need is timepass that will have you doing other things. or maybe you can ask for some kind of travel assignment at work (if you are fortunate enough to work in such an environment). you have to do somehting that doesnt make you just stare at the clock and the calender, or you will truly go mad!

You WILL get it - just hang in there. your PCC was the only source of your RFE and they already acknowledged that; so in a way, it is sort of ok, since there is nothing else wrong. its just a matter of opening the mail and checking the box off, so dont worry. you've done what you can and now you WILL get the SIF!

I know what you mean Hobo. It's just one of those times I feel unfortunate that I work in IT and that I have a PC at my disposal all day so I keep trying to Sign in into that stupid portal so many times a day. I will try not to. Hopefully the PCC will do it for me. Am I really the only September filer left here?

SJ, I think waiting for Friday would be better. What is there to distract you until then? A special welcome home surprise for your wife. Making evidence. Taking a trip to your favorite restaurant or coffee house. Or bar. hehehe We're always here to distract you, too.

I keep telling myself to wait till Friday, but my devil half doesnt want to and keeps trying only to disappoint the other "good" side of me. And going to my favorite restaurant does sound good, or maybe even a movie as Hobo suggested. "Hobo", I kinda like that... :D

Oh, and a big thanks to all of you for keeping me sane throughout the process, seriously, this would seem like a Black Hole withouth ya'll here to cheer me up. (L)

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could suggest a course of action. My wife lives in Cuba and we are currently waiting for the NVC to give us her interview date. According to the NVC, our case was completed on March 5th, but no interview yet. I went to Cuba last week and I went to the US embassy to ask about the case. They found the case in their computers but it showed that "the case has not arrived Havana yet". The lady who talked to me was amazed that the case had been approved but it had not arrived Havana. She asked me if I was sure it was approved. It seems most CR-1 cases are forwarded by the NVC to the consulate in Havana as soon as they are approved, and the consulate assigns the interview date. I'm not sure why our case is different, why the NVC is holding it so they can assign the interview date themselves, but I'm worried about it. The NVC tells me to stay put until they find a date, but the consulate tells me it is strange they have not received the case. I don't know what to do...

Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, Delfo!

Does the embassy in Cuba have openings? If so, perhaps they can request your file from NVC. When was the last time you called NVC? I would think that the embassy would have more full than you do in getting your case sent to them. If nothing else, the second week of May is coming up shortly. For the rest of us, the NVC assigns the interview then sends the case file to the embassy. Maybe someone got confused and is doing that with your case, too. Call/e-mail NVC for a status update, then call/e-mail the embassy in Cuba to see if they can get the file sent to them.
