Disappointed....... but keeping the faith

[dleeg 2]

Hi everyone.........

I'm sure you have seen this kind of post many times before but I guess I just need to vent my disappoint. We submitted packet 3 documents by fax on March 7th hoping for a interview sometime in April. We could have submitted starting the 3rd week of January, but I was locked into a teaching contract through the 3rd week of March. The reason we waited was because I want to go to Colombia to be with my fiance for the interview process. We were trying to time it out, and after viewing other timelines for the amount of time between submitting packet 3 and a interview date, I thought it would work out in our favor. Well.... I just checked the newly posted April interview dates on the US embassy website and did not see our case number. Needless to say we are very disappointed. I was poised and ready in my own mind that I would be going to Colombia sometime in April. Especially since my fiance's mother, who is getting married, was waiting to know our interview date so she could schedule her wedding while I was there. The only thing I can think of is that the embassy is busier now and we have to wait longer. Or our documents never arrived by fax, though we have fax confirmation receipts that says the transmission went through. I wrote the emabassy so maybe they will respond.

Ok...... I feel a little better.... Thanks for reading my post, and most of all thanks for all your past advice.

Disaapointed in San Diego........

I feel you.. I'm kind of the same but not exactly. I filed my 485 back in August hoping that by March, I'd have my green card. As of now, no word on the interview or gc yet. Meanwhile, I have a groom and an April wedding waiting for me in Manila We're moving the wedding to May, hoping I'd get it next month. I'm staying positive and keeping the faith that everything will turn out fine, I'm longing to see my fiance though!

I wish us all the best of luck. I hope you hear from the pretty soon

You can send them by fax as the USA Embassy in Bogota indicates but the better method is to overnight them to the embassy whicch causes them to sign for them. Faxes can sit on the fax machine combined with 10 other faxes that came through and then they are not sure what belongs to who. Any paperwork recieved before the 15th of the month usually gets you an interview for the next month. March 7th should have gotten you an April interview. Only thing you can do is wait or see if you can contact them for an answer....e-mail..phone....ect.

Good luck

Hi. Not sure if it will help you, but rather than wait to find out when your appointment is by waiting for the online posting. You can call DOS direct at 202-663-1225 x1, x0 to confirm. You will need your new BGT case number.

I was able to find out my interview date sooner. I kept calling every other day till they had my info. Hope this helps with your planning.
