December 2016 Filers (merged)

[RJandHamid 1,128]

The political climate is starting to make the wait for NOA2 even more stressful. I'm starting to regret not filing after my July visit...well nothing more I can do now except wait like everyone else. Hoping they get through most of the November filers in February and maybe us December filers will start to see some movement in March or April.

for everyone. be patiance. look at my timeline and be happy  none of you will wait like me. I got my noa2 just couple days ago after loong stressful waiting. everything will be okay. I couldn't focus my relationship as much because of stress about visa. give importance to your relationship more than visa. I know visa will allow you to be together. But if you think the visa everyday, it will just make you crazy like it did to me. It was so hard for me, that's why I wanna help your brain to make better. I'm crossing my fingers for all of you.

Hi guys!

Just a question I am from the Philippines but currently residing here in Qatar as a permanent resident, and I  the application we have chose Qatar as consulate since it will be easier for me once the interview will be scheduled rather than going back home. Would it affect the application? Or if in case can I change it to Philippines? Thank you!

I've been checking October and November filers and its approx. 76-80 days if not sooner. So I'm getting a rough estimate for March 20th-31st. just 2 months to goooooo ...if it doesn't get any slower.

We are at 25 days since our NOA1 receipt.  76 days doesn't sound too terrible when I think that we are a third of the way through.  lol.  This wait is hard.  I am still holding out hope that it will speed up a bit and get into the 60 day range  

 

Hope your wait is going well so far!
