My finace finally got his interview appointment for 11/9/06 after waiting four months (we were approved by NICS in early June). His was unable to attend his interview because of a one day delay with his police report. I spoke to someone in November that said that we would have a new date in a month, well we know that the embassy moved and pretty much closed for December then I was told we would have a date in January. Now I get an email saying we will have to wait until February!!! Who can give us a correct, definitive answer?? I compare our timelines to others on this site and I cant help but wonder how/why some people seem to speed through this beauracracy and others linger for months. Is there something that I dont know???

Tired of waiting.

Some Guys Have All The Luck (I don't)

The Jamaican embassy is good at delaying tactics. I was approved for a K1 visa on feb. 22 and still am waiting for it to be delivered and they make it so it almost impossible to speak to anyone there personally. Just hang in there I had my first interview on Dec. 4th and had to wait almost three months because I had to do a fingerprint check. It's a long road but in the end it will be worth it!!!

Tek it easy!!! :help:
