Approved !!

[Jen&Cal 85]

Finally we were approved yesterday - this whole process has taken almost a year.

 

Now we await the Visa in the mail ! Hopefully it will not be long.

We have not seen each other since January and cannot wait to finally be together again - for good !

 

Good luck to everyone else ! 

It has been such a difficult process.

Well our interview was the 7th and so far there has been no change to issued yet. 

I think it takes around 5 business days ?

Ours was approved Tuesday 30th and I got the visa the following Tuesday. It has currently been a fairly quick turn around, and my passport also arrived very early in the morning!!

POE in three weeks!!

 

Congratulations to you and your fiancé!,

We received our Visa packet it's a white envelope with virtually nothing in it. We are entering in Chicago what happens at POR when we give them the white envelope?

Congratulations!

 

I went through Chicago. They're awesome. The CO asked to see my passport, asked for the envelope. Then asked me a few questions on where I was going. Rifled through the papers in the envelope (which has your k1 papers). Asked me, is this big bearded guy your fiance? Told him, yes sir (mightve had a very big grin on my face right there). And he told me congratulations, stamped my passport, and let me through. Easiest part of the whole day. 

 

My people came through and put a review up. Find them here.

My interview was Friday 2nd November and I’m still stuck on AP. Getting really nervous as I know people who did their interviews on the 31st got their passports back within a week. But, the embassy was closed yesterday for Veterans Day so I’m just hoping that’s causing a delay. Haven’t seen anyone else who’s interview has been in November receive their passport yet.

Seriously ?? Let us know when you hear something ! We had our interview on the 7th, it stayed "Ready" until this morning it changed to "Application Received" then to "Administrative Processing" just now. 

 

Hope you hear something soon !
