Hi ihr lieben! 
 

Nun, ich bin relativ neu hier in diesem Forum, welches sehr informativ ist. 
 

wir haben bereits unsere Petition abgeschickt und warten momentan auf unsere NOA1, welche hoffentlich nächste oder übernächste Woche ankommen sollte 🙏🏻
 

Danach käme ja die NOA2. Wie lange hat die bei euch gebraucht? Kann mir vorstellen, dass durch die Corona Krise die Dinge eventuell länger dauern, was ich natürlich nicht hoffe ... 

 

Danke 😊 

 

Liebe Grüße, Bino.

Hallo mein Lieber!

Die Hauptsprache des Forums ist Englisch. Bitte poste auf Englisch, damit mehr Leute dir helfen können. Ansonsten gibt es das regionale Forum, in dem es in Ordnung ist, auf Deutsch zu posten.

Danke 😊

By the time I wrote the above lines the post has been moved. Consider it void

No worries.

 

Because of the corona virus closures I don't think you can compare your timeline anymore to the previous ones.

Usually it takes 12-18 months for the whole process but with this we never know... Hopefully somebody can chime in with recent timelines from Germany.

 

It is a long wait regardless. The best is to try to forget about it and live your life in the meantime.

Hey. Thanks for your reply! Wow, that does sound a little harsh because you are far away from your loved one :( 

 

But I guess that is the only thing one can do at the moment ... :’(

It sucks......but a year or so has been the average for some time.  It took us 13 months from filing to "visa in hand" in 2017.  If our "brilliant" attorney had now screwed up, it would have been closer to 10 months......

A year is still okay for me... but I wouldn’t know how to cope with a timeline of more than 12 months ... 

 

Oh no! You pay an attorney to help you and then you have a 3 months delay? What happened if I may ask?

The attorney's people failed to send all the required documents to NVC (I believe), which caused us to receive an NVC checklist.  It took NVC 3 months to review the new documents........
