No, you weren't asleep for months (though I could use a month long nap right now), we got it changed about a week and a bit ago. I just kept mum about it - helped me stay relatively stress free - I was pretty much fine until about 2:30am this morning! Haha.

Congrats Daisy!! That's so awesome. :dance:

I called DoS again today, and there is still no indication of receipt of our P3 even though it was signed for almost 2 weeks ago. Why are they talking so darn long to send out those P4s right now? I know you can't go just by people's timelines, but just a month ago people were getting their P4s a week after posting their P3s! I put our travel date as September 1, because I was really hoping to have the interview by then since our wedding is in October, but it's not looking too good for August interviews. :unsure:

2007 - K-1 issued, moved to US, completed AOS (a busy year, immigration-wise)

2009 - Conditions lifted

I did exactly the same. I sent my P3 in a few days after yours and also put our travel date as Sept 1 - put wedding as Sept 15. No news yet. I can only assume that a lot of the embassy staff are on Holiday or at least will be soon, limiting the number of available August dates...

Alright, packet 3 is in the mail, hurrayyyyy!!! After more times than we care to admit to on checking to make sure everything is in there, it is outa here. Barney sent it out express so hopefully we will get some dates soon. I'm not superstitious, but it works for me to be at this point, so I think I will be on this...7-7-07. Hope everyone is having a good weekend!!!

Us, too. Sent 6/25, signed as rec'd by Embassy 6/26. Nothing whatsoever indicating that they've laid a grubby hand on the silly thing. I've gone to the 2nd stage of grief....anger. :ranting:

Anyone can do the update, JenandBarney. Just quote the last poster who did the update, add your info and go.

Then remove the 'quote' tags at the beginning and the end. Oh and I usually do a 'preview post' to make sure it looks all purty before posting it, but I am ####### retentive. :)
