Why can't they send some of our petitions over there to even out the distribution?
Si, man. This sure brings back the memories from 2007 when the productivity of the service centers was reversed (the CSC was the slow one then). Keep the faith, si man.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

You guys, this process is driving me crazy. The past couple weeks have really gotten to me. As we have surpassed five months and inched closer to six, it really feels like there is NO end in sight. W

Your post made me tear up. I can relate to the feeling. I'm trying to be optimistic, but it's a challenge to be positive all the time. I'm glad I have a very supportive and encouraging fiance. You'v

Hello again,

As everybody here I'm worried about the wait and the whole process in general. In fact, our situation has been unusual from the beginning and I was wondering if we might still be influenced. The situation is that we filed our first I129F petition back in December of 2009. We really made sure everything is in place. My Fiance and I are both experts in any kind of paperwork (due to our jobs specifics). Therefore, I'm absolutely confident that we had everything needed in our package. Unfortunately we NEVER had ANY kind of response from VSC. The package seemed to went nowhere. Has anybody ever run into something like that? I would really appreciate your knowledge and experience guys! I started thinking that problems with our 'second' (we filed in September of 2010) paperwork might be related to the problems with our 'first'.

Please let me know if anybody has ever had something related to our situation.

Thank you in advance!

Man I feel the same way I got married at Mexico on September 6 and I'm still waiting for the NVC to close my case and send it to the Cd Juarez Consulate all I can say is that be strong and do a lot of exercise since that is going to relieve all this stress believe me don't give up seems to me that this process pushes everybody to the edge but at the end is worth it My wife and I are even closer because of this wait, but hang in there and Pray to God he listens...God Blesss

I know how you feel exactly. That one day apart from a loved one seems like an eternity. I called my Senators office too. Just keep bothering them EVERYDAY, they will expedite it. I got NOA2, 4 days later.)))) I too hated people asking when the wedding is. I wish you the best and quickest of luck.
