November 2014 Interviews

[Soloenta 2,218]

Why do they need your parents' marriage certificate?

Because I think they have a bet going to see how long it takes for me to totally lose it.

They said because my father is the sponsor and my mother the co-sponsor they have to prove they are married hahahahaa OMG they have been married for EVER! They just don't know how to make it more difficult. I'm just so tired of this whole thing, one thing after another!

[Soloenta 2,218]

Just when I thought everything was going on, BOOM, back on the wait again, NVC reps are really confusing, when I called about my CC, they said: "Yeah, your case is in line for an interview", I was expecting a november interview, as the days passed and everybody got the interview date, I called and they said: "Your case is in hold, because your petitioner has another family case that needs to catch up in order to schedule an interview", and I was WHAAT!? (I didn't knew about this) but, how long?, then the rep said: "Don't worry only 60 days from sept 18th, then you go on your own".

Here we go again, back on the bench.

Someone has experienced a case like this?

Mine is a nightmare from day, everyone could help you better if you filled out your timeline. Good luck

[Soloenta 2,218]

After the drama with NVC, I thought the chaos is over. I got my case completion by calling them. The rep gave the good news which we all are waiting for. He said that your case is completed. So I asked,"are you sure" cos I had some doubts of my own. He asure me that our case was done without any problems. Me and my husband were thrilled. Two days after, I got a checklist email from NVC, asking my husband to bring his police certificate. And asking me to arrange co sponsor for my husband. So called NVC, they were saying that my income is below poverty limits for 4 member of the family. But I have only 3 including my husband. I made 25050 last year which is above the guidelines. I am making way above the limits. I have submitted my employers letter which mention my income is 32000. So I don't know why they are asking me for cosponsor. Now they are say that in their system my family size is 4. Pls help, how can I fix this so my husband can have a smooth interview. They are also asking him to bring police certificate. But I have already submitted all the require documents to NVC.

I am so lost and stressed out,can't even concentrate on my work .... Pls help

OMG, I'm so sorry sweet heart, did you talk to a supervisor or just a rep? You need a supervisor on this quick don't waste any time call again Monday please. I'll be praying for you.

So I just came back from the interview ..

I went there 7:00 am .. yet there was a long line ahead of me and another set of two lines (my line had 13 cases to be exact ahead of me)

They asked for the Aramex papers and the P4 letter .. I showed it to them and then they let me in

I went down to the hall and they gave me a waiting number (614)

There was far more Visa cases than the IV ones .. with different number systems .. 500s and 50s

Here how it all goes .. there are windows 5 to 8 that are for preparation of documents .. you wait till one of em call your number

They have the files from NVC and ask you for the rest to complete your file then they ask you to sit down again

then windows 9-15 are for officers who call your number again for an interview

mine was a quick one.. he told me to raise my hand and approve the sear of saying the truth

then he told me about the abuse laws in the USA

then he asked few questions: how you met your wife? where? whats her study degree? was she pregnant? what do you do? where do you work? did you travel abroad?

then he said your case is fine .. nothing is wrong with your case ..

but you will go through Administrative processing

He saw my face going sad

he said don't be .. it is much faster now .. around a month he said

that's all

more waiting for me .. AGAIN!

anyone knows a previous AP some time soon

and how long it took?

I'm really glad your petition was approved. The AP is just for background check, though it can take some time and is very frustrating... so I do sympathize.

A fellow from Pakistan was put on AP in August or July and it lasted 61 days. I was put on AP, but it was for a specific requested document, so it only lasted a couple of weeks. I'm highly hopeful yours will be concluded before Thanksgiving.

Best of luck to you and your loved one.

Collected our passports and visa packets early this afternoon from the Embassy reception. I was really surprised that each of my derivative family members received their own visa packet (brown envelope). Here they are, exactly as received.

Thx for your support .. i appreciate it

The officer told me that there is nothing wrong with my case .. my case is fine .. it is just a random thing they do

They kept my passport in the embassy (i hope it is a good sign)

Did yours go to D.C. to check for background as well?

Not this time. I went under AP twice before, in 2007 and 2008, where I believe States-side agencies were involved. First one lasted a month and the second lasted a year, but I believe it was because of a two-year residency restriction from my previous J1 visa.

Congrats!!

Mabrook!

Thanks... Hopefully yours will be there before you know it. Keeping the passport is usually a good sign, but it depends on the embassy.
