Thank you!

It's going brother, it's painful but it is what it is. All we can do is wait. Even the US officials know that this process is bizarre however since it's the law so all who are suffering have to go through this process. I hope it works out for all who are suffering. 

 

Imagine being put into DS 5535 for a security reason and still you have visited US many times in the past without any restriction. They whole process doesn't make sense, in my opinion.

Obviously it makes zero sense!

This afternoon I have sent my passport and supporting items to Montreal. One step closer. Just hoping that re-opening the DS-260 not another dirty trick for delaying me; I am somewhat paranoid at this point. Otherwise, it felt good.

Stay strong my friend. Hopefully it will go well for you. Sending prayers and good wishes your way!

So 5 or 6 weeks is a reasonable prediction, I guess?

Congratulations you’re almost there! By the time I submitted my passport and medical to them and received the passport back it took  2 weeks. So it might be even sooner than 5-6 weeks!

Also the end is in site Ice-qube! Stay strong!

Congrats @addpeace!  Super exciting for you - just think 3-4 months from now you will be on the other side of this nightmare!  Let me know if you would like to be added to our WOM group chat and to the tracker spreadsheet!  It's a great view of what you can expect over the next few months :)
