Apologies for the absence and congrats to all the new NOA2 people, and to Trilobyte for the marriage!

 

More good news today. Our case shows READY. Hopefully that lights a fire under the lawyer. Next step is scheduling the interview in Montreal for us, but we can see the light at the end of the tunnel and we're close enough that we can start making some plans for the holidays.

 

I just finished the latest updates to the stats. First the breakdown by date. Starting to see quite a few 100%, and a lot of 85-90%. Still if you're at the end of the month, not as good, and you poor 3/10 people, someone needs to give you a medal:

 

2017/03/01 21 17 81% 
2017/03/02 8 8 100% 
2017/03/03 15 9 60% 
2017/03/04 2 2 100% 
2017/03/05 1 0 0% 
2017/03/06 32 25 78.1% 
2017/03/07 20 18 90% 
2017/03/08 5 4 80% 
2017/03/09 21 14 66.7% 
2017/03/10 11 6 54.5% 
2017/03/11 8 8 100% 
2017/03/12 1 1 100% 
2017/03/13 21 18 85.7% 
2017/03/14 12 11 91.7% 
2017/03/15 18 15 83.3% 
2017/03/16 28 20 71.4% 
2017/03/17 10 7 70% 
2017/03/20 26 20 76.9% 
2017/03/21 18 12 66.7% 
2017/03/22 11 9 81.8% 
2017/03/23 11 7 63.6% 
2017/03/24 12 9 75% 
2017/03/25 1 1 100% 
2017/03/26 2 1 50% 
2017/03/27 20 17 85% 
2017/03/28 23 14 60.9% 
2017/03/29 20 15 75% 
2017/03/30 5 3 60% 
2017/03/31 19 13 68.4% 

 

Next, the results of the past month on NOA2s. Things have really slowed down a lot:

 

2017/08/05 1 
2017/08/07 3 
2017/08/08 1 
2017/08/09 2 
2017/08/10 2 
2017/08/11 3 
2017/08/14 5 
2017/08/16 2 
2017/08/19 1 
2017/08/21 3 
2017/08/24 3 
2017/08/25 3 
2017/08/28 3 
2017/08/30 2 
2017/08/31 1 
2017/09/05 2 

 

Finally, by country (rememeber, not all, just the big ones.) DR is still way behind, but a lot of have come up, most nearing 90% except for the Philippines and India.

 

Australia 10 9 90% 
Brazil 22 18 81.8% 
Canada 21 19 90.5% 
China 7 5 71.4% 
Colombia 10 7 70% 
Dominican Republic 13 7 53.8% 
India 8 6 75% 
Japan 7 7 100% 
Mexico 7 5 71.4% 
Nigeria 12 11 91.7% 
Philippines 92 64 69.6% 
Russia 11 8 72.7% 
Ukraine 9 8 88.9% 
United Kingdom 32 25 78.1% 
Vietnam 7 6 85.7%

A quick update...
Ok, so my F had his medical and it was kinda different imo. They had him go back at a later time after doing his x-ray and checking some things and then they told him that he had swollen tonsils and will be sick in a couple of days and gave him a prescription and charged him extra money for "treating" him for his throat, but here is the thing.. he said he felt fine and doesn't feel sick at all so I am thinking that they just wanted to charge him extra money to make more money from him. He went back later in the day (3rd time) and picked up his sealed envelope to take to the embassy which is in about 14 hrs (no, I am not counting down or anything lol) Oh, and they charged him extra to get his results that day or they said his other option was to wait for the results that could take up to 2 weeks... another way for them to make more money  lol  

****** A side note for anyone going through Bucharest - They don't tell you ahead of time in the instructions, but the medical place requires quite a few passport style photos to be taken with you. My F was scrambling to get this done since he had scheduled his appt only 1 day in advance  lol

omg Holly, this is what i am going to face too in a couple of days. when is his interview ?mine is on the 12th.

OH MY GOSH. I don't mean to sound like a prepubescent teenage girl, but every time I come on VisaJourney, something wonderful happens. Just roughly 10 minutes ago, 12:36 am EST time, me and my fiancee discovered the email for packet 4. We literally just sent packet 3 back to the consulate on the 5th. Only a day and a half and we got packet 4. This is so exciting, and I can barely breathe. This is getting so real for me. I just wanna say how wonderful this is and for those who haven't reached this stage yet, just know that your turn is coming very shortly and when it does, the feeling is the best feeling in the world. I can definitely say that. I don't mean to sound like a braggart, but I just enjoy sharing my journey with all of you and like to hear the same from all of you other wonderful people here. This journey has been filled with a lot of stress, but it has made me a stronger person. I felt broken through most of this since we haven't seen eachother since December. It's been difficult, but each little milestone really gives you something to look forward to. To think shortly this will all be over and he'll be here in the states with me, is the best feeling ever. :wub:
