Hi everyone!

I just wanna say that I have been in a long distance relationship for over 5 years now.

I had already applied for a fiance visa for him but a certain someone who hated my (then) fiance ruined the whole case for us and we had to withdraw.

Now after we got married and all the family drama is over with, we are in the last stages of the CR1 process.....and it is ABSOLUTE TORTURE

I hate NVC for being so unpredictable.

After 5 years of tumult and separation and tears I realize that this new month of July or August could be life-changing for the both of us and

could finally close this stupid gap.....I just want to tell other long-distance couples to hang in there please and have faith.

If this is truly the person that makes you happy, fight for them through everything that's trying to separate you guys, fight the distance, and fight the grudges

and egos that keep you back from approaching them and saying you're sorry or that you love them even if they were wrong. Blame the distance and not being

able to hug them through a tough situation. Value your relationship more than your egos. Hang in there everyone and I hope that everyone get's united with their loved ones soon!

Best wishes

Great to have you back!

[Maharosa 251]

Sigh... Three weeks since interview and one week since the Cairo embassy getting back online after the technical issues, still no visa. Not even an update on the CEAC, still says ready for interview. We emailed the embassy a couple of days ago and they said that our visa was in the final stage and would be issued shortly, but still nothing.

I know I shouldn't complain because at least we know we will be getting the visa, while there are some of you here that have been waiting in AP for ages, and there are others that have no idea if they will ever get their visa, but I just can't help myself. This has been such a long process considering we were expedited at USCIS because of my grandfather not being well. I just need it to be over.

Anyhow, that is may rant for the day.

[J&N071213 57]

Hi everyone! Hope all is well or at least the best it can be in our situation. Interview in 13 days, will see my husband in 10 days after over a year. Can't wait to see him!!!

Welcome to the thread and I'll be praying the last stage will be an easy one for you and soon you'll get your Visa and a normal life. God bless and help us on in this endless journey.

Great to have you back!

Aww thank you so much kemtan your so kind. I'm a little turned around still, I'm having such a great time just feeling normal with my husband that I forgot what day it was and didn't post this thread when I should have, sorry for that. So happy to see you post.

Praying you get your Visa this week and you have all the right in the world to complain it's your reality not anyone elses.

I can't wait for you to post, VISA IN HAND, HUSBAND ON THE WAY HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooo Hoooo

HI Maharosa.... I completely understand how you feel. This waiting after an approved interview is horrible. It's like being falsely imprisoned, with no representation. I'm happy for the same sex couples who now have the right to marry here, but what about our marriage equality? Americans should have the right to marry whomever they wish, and ACTUALLY LIVE WITH THEM! We need to petition for marriage equality...Immigration marriage equality. How the Embassys discriminate makes me sick. You know if I was a white guy in my 50's or 60's and I petitioned for my brown, muslim wife, she'd get her visa issued the next day. This happens all over the world. White guys have no problems compared to us. Military men, too. It's really not fair how these guys get the easy street, it's PLAIN DISCRIMINATION against American women petitioners! Anyway...I feel your pain, and eventhough it could take till we die...( then they'll issue it... I don't care, I'm here, and will ALWAYS wait for my husband, and it's just so tragic for us women! How we have to suffer with all the burden, all the time, and our men can't even help us, like they want because they are bound by invisible legal chains for no reason. SAD!!!!

I'm with you 100%, I love my husband and they will not dictate to me who I can and can NOT love. Your right they do disciminate against us because we're women and men for the most part are free to marry who they wish no matter the circumstances. One old man in his 90's married a 18 year old and had no problem getting the visa. Don't ask me where I saw this because I didn't I read it on another thread but it didn't give the thread I don't think. I'm just sick to death of this tired game girl I want it to end with a Visa for all of us soon. Sometimes I feel I'm in a nightmare and I'll wake up and my husband is next to me at home in CA.

Hi everyone! Hope all is well or at least the best it can be in our situation. Interview in 13 days, will see my husband in 10 days after over a year. Can't wait to see him!!!

Oh how wonderful I'll be praying the interview goes smoothly and you get your visa with no problem! Please don't forget to let us know and I for one will be praying like mad!!

[BRosa 170]

Hello my dear friends, I wish ever best of luck this month. I know this will be the one in which I will be reunited with my husband, finally after 18 month journey.

[Teamsami 27]

Inshallah this month going to be the month we receive our passports with a hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee visa stamp on it ( ALL OF US) :D , we are all so exhausted but better positive than negative. Pain will be over soon

I'm in the same boat as you give or take a few days. It is literally stunning that they approve you a visa and then you have to wait weeks to receive it.

It has been 5 months since my CC at the NVC when I thought all the pain was over. But no, it's continued and unsurprising incompetence by US government systems.

What annoys me most is that people with their interview the day before me received their visas within 8-9 days. For me now it has been 12 days and CEAC still says bloody 'ready' as if I haven't had my damn interview.

I feel your pain...its like they stabbed you with a knife and now they just twisting it. I have had a few people with interviews after mine and they already have had their notification to pick up their passport....while I'm sitting her waiting and be like...are you for real? Its so stressful I'm like be done with it already! you approved me over 2 weeks ago....why am I still here??????? Mine even says issued but apparently there is more waiting after that.....and those after me - issued and delivery of visa within 5 days.

Thank you my friend and I'm so very happy that at last you will be with your dear husband. Finally the peace and normal life we all want will be yours. You have no idea how much joy I find in each and every one of your victories.

Inshallah this month going to be the month we receive our passports with a hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee visa stamp on it ( ALL OF US) :D , we are all so exhausted but better positive than negative. Pain will be over soon

God willing all of you will be reunited this month for sure, I can't wait for the great news.

Thank you Soloenta for your wishes and prayers.

My pleasure sweet heart

God Bless America & God Bless Us All with ISSUEDs!

I know, they love to torture us to the very last second but have a little more patience your Visa is coming very soon then all will be happiness of a normal life. My prayers for all of you will continue until your husbands and wives are home and safe with all of you.

The problem is we all think logically and are guided by common sense which these government departments are devoid of. If you try to make sense of how they fuction you'll go insane.

[J&N071213 57]

Now the embassy in DR has been closed since yesterday do to technical difficulties. They are rescheduling interviews as the go.

Just have to hooe is fixed before weekend or hope.I get a new date before then to change my flight. ?

[Maharosa 251]

Hi all! How is everyone holding up? I hope all is as well as things can be while waiting to get through this horrid never ending nightmare of a process!
