I just got an e-mail from HCMC Consulate this morning, 12/13/2006 (VN time); the e-mail is to inform us that yesterday they already sent their notification of interview appointment to her address, and the date is Jan. 8, 2007, (our visa type is CR-1).

Happy holidays!!!!!!

Hope both of us could get a good TET on the US soil. Why not?

Congratulations! Can you tell me when your case was forwarded to the consulate? Also, did you have to email the consulate or did they get your email address off of one of the applications?

Thanks

Thank you all, your concerns and support are greatly appreciated!

Phong_mai: They replied me that they received electronically on Sep. 11, and the approved petition on Oct. 6. And I e-mailed them twice in Sept. to initiate my check for case status with them, after learning from NVC that they had already forwarded my case to them. Then once or twice each month after that also for case status and/or for other questions as well. We, not the consulate, usually initiate correspondence for case status or for any questions. I was replied sometimes promptly, sometimes not. But they do very promptly and more frequently when something new happens to your case (I was replied twice the last three days, this is very nice). Write them more frequently (but twice a month would be nice) when you guess that your interview date comes more closer. As they just replied, an interview is usually scheduled 2 to 4 months after they receive the approved petition from NVC, (or 3 to 4 months after the electronic file as we usually know).

Again, Happy Holidays to alll!!!!

(Oh, i'm so happy, of course,...)

Chao My Le,

Yes, I was in VN when my wife was granted her visa, about 1 month before the Tet New Year 2005, and we decided to stay in VN for a couple of more weeks to prepare for her move and, most importantly, she was able to say goodbye to ALL her extended family members during the actual Tet New Year.

Looking back, the decision to stay a couple extra weeks so my wife could experience Tet with her family before changing her life and moving to America, was a vey very good decision. It was sort of a final goodbye and NOW a fresh new year in a new country.

Just my experience.....

True, but not everyone has the luxury to stay a few extra weeks or even return to the country to pick up the wife! I wish I didn't have to return and come back to the STATES within a week when Kim had her Visa. It was very hard on Kim's family... Do what's right for her family and she will forever appreciate and love you even more!!!

Chao paticks and chuckandkim:

Good ideas! I already spent the last 2 TET's with her and her family here in VN, then as I've already been here, so being here together with her and her family for 1 more TET that is on the way would be no problem. We'll think about it. Thanks.

Your continuing special attention to our situation is just great. Many people here, especially you, have made us feel that we've never been alone. That's very nice! Thank you.
