  1. It's been a while! Rayon arrived January 8th, we were married March 3rd...found out 4 days later that I am pregnant! Baby boy is due November 16th. We applied for AOS April 7th, and received EAD/AP on June 19th. Our green card interview was June 20th- easy and approved! This has been a great experience since Rayon's arrival. :)

  2. One week until POE!!!!

      Nope, Rayon is still in Jamaica. Forgot to edit the date. He'll be here early January. We will probably wait until March to get married so I have time to get used to the idea of Mom not being there. Thanks for asking.

      I am so sorry to read this news. I know how it is to lose a parent. Always remember God will comfort us during this time, and that her spirit is still here with us. God Bless, and always reach out to us when you need to talk.

  7. DHL says "Departed Facility in Kingston." OMG.

  8. It's been 23 days since we were approved, but the visa is held under AP...calling DOS everyday but nothing new. Feel like this will never end. I need my fiancé here with me during this difficult time.

      djricky4, you were right! I just received an email from the embassy saying, "This case is with our printers and should be completely packaged and printed by Tuesday November 20, 2012. It should be with the DHL curriers by latest Friday November 23, 2012 at noon time." I'm relieved.

      Whoooo, I was praying for you to get it.

  9. Thank you...there has been no improvement.

  10. Finally got a response from the embassy. They said, "Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately we do not have an exact time frame of when the visa will be issued. The file is undergoing administrative review at the current time. There is no definite time period of when this will be complete. Our visa officers are working hard to complete all cases so please be patient." Ugh...wonder how long will this take? And if I sent info about the family emergency if it could be expedited at ...

      It couldnt hurt to pass along the "family emergency" you are having. Keep checking that website. It changes pretty quick.

      I sent an email to kinstonNIVemergency but I don't know if that was the right address to send it to...it says it's for expedited interview scheduling due to family emergency. Oh well. Worth a shot.

      I know, right? I have the venue, the photographer, and the officiant but could lose them all if I don't put down a deposit soon... Crossing my fingers for you too, Pinkrlion!

  13. Have you been able to pick up your visa? :)

      Nope nothing...ugh I can't stop checking the DHL site! I'm going to email the embassy like you did if there is no progress by Thursday,

    3. Pinkrlion

      Pinkrlion

      Me tooo nothing.

    4. Pinkrlion

      Me tooo nothing.

  15. Is it normal for the DHL tracking site to say "No result found for your DHL query. Please try again."? Or am I entering the number wrong? I'm assuming it's too soon for the visa to have been issued yet so the site wouldn't say anything yet? Lol this part ok the journey is kinda fun.

      Unfortunately, we are a victim of the hurricane as well. The US Embassy is closed.

  16. I'm scared- Rayon just called and he lives in the mountains...Lots of rain and wind already and the hurricane hasn't even hit yet! His house is so old and he says it's cold. Praying everyone comes through this safe.

      I hope all is well with Rayon, family, and friends.

      Thanks! I just finally got through to his cell- power poles/lines down everywhere and his roof is leaking but overall he's doing great! He said the wind made his head spin so he just tried to sleep through it. Whew! Now hoping our visa being issued isn't delayed much by the storm. Not a problem if it is though...I'm just so glad he is ok! Hope there isn't too much damage in Jamaica from this storm- too much of a strain on the people and economy.

  17. Tomorrow! :)

  18. Congrats again on your marriage! Just a question about the info window appointment- did you print out and take your appointment email to the embassy? Thanks!

  19. My fiancé's phone has passed away! Makes these last few days feel much longer. How much should a cheap phone cost in Ochee?
