I'm starting to come to the realization that I may never leave these threads!! I'm officially a lifetime member! My process is over but I will be following and rooting for all of you!!!

Hey everyone!
My husbands visa was Issued at the Sydney Consulate sometime around 3:00PM and it made it to Perth in Western Australia via Express Post by 8:00AM the following morning.
A TRUE MIRACLE!! He sent me a cute photo of himself holding up his visa; the proudest look on his face!
He is going to make his ORIGINAL flights with no cancellations or changes! What a blessing after this last scare with the computer glitch! He is on his way to me tomorrow night!
Best wishes for everyone!

We finally got our interview! September 2nd.
Unfortunately, my husband did his medical in mid March and it is only good for 6 months to POE. We may be pushing our luck, especially with visa hold ups.
Did anyone else do a medical well before the case complete and interview?

Amazing accuracy!

Perfect explanation!

Congratulations. I have updated you on spreadsheet.

YAY!!!!!!
That's amazing that they'll call you to pick up the visa! Great news! Congrats!!!

Best news! Visa changed to issued today! Will have it by Saturday! Finallllyyyyyy
Congrats to evergone who heard good news today!

congratsss to alll issued visa

CONGRATULATIONS!

VIVE LA FRANCE!

Our interview date is Sept. 12th.
Just FYI.

Hahaha I just seriously thought about waking him up!! Well it's almost 8am there soooo it's time for him to get up :-D

Thanks a lot! I hope VJ members who just had their interviews or about to get it are a bit relieved that the delay is not that long (I was worried it was going to take weeks to get issued!)

So will your husband be able to fly with you if he receives it on Saturday (it sounds more realistic huh?)? It would be sooo nice! Can't wait for my husband to wake up!

I LOVE logging into VJ and seeing postings like this! YAY!!!!!!

I wish they would send it today and by some miracle I would get it tomorrow. But that won't happen lol. I'm happy enough with the Visa being issued. Last night I cried myself to sleep thinking I would have to leave my husband not knowing when he can finally come.
Need to start packing his things and getting an idea of prices for flights. Woot woot.
Nice way to start this thread this a.m. It's still a bit early for everyone in the U.S. We got an early start here in Europe lol.

Congratulations!
Finally! Congrats!
Congratulations!!
I'm so sorry for the delays you all had waiting for the visas to be issued. Happy to see that it's happening now!

Woohooooooo time to celebrate! Okay time to look up flights too and to finish packimg! :-D My husband is still asleep so you guys were the first I told! Can't wait for him to wake up and read my crazy excited messages! I am so excited for all of us! And I hope nobody will be delayed at other embassies. Do you think they send it the same day? Maybe it takes a few days to get the envelope ready?

You just made my day! I checked as well and .... miracle, it switched to "issued" (it was still showing "ready" this morning). So, the Paris Embassy finally manage to access the database!

ISSUED!!!!!! Visa ISSUED!!!!!! Woot Woot!!!!!!! I screamed and jumped on my hubby. He had no idea what was going on haha.

Oh myyy, my status shows "ISSUED", I can't believe it!!!! I will check again later if it stays like this, I feel like it's another glitch and it's not really issued...
Please check again, it changed to issued on mine!!!

Good morning all.
Checked CEAC for status and after 5 business days, it has changed to Administrative Processing. Let's see how long it stays here now.

Oh my word.... Finally..... Interview September 2, 2pm! 474 days!!

Hey everyone,
I just signed up here. Been reading through everyone's progress. Congrats to all of you have gotten their interview dates and to those whose journey is finally over. Good luck to the rest of us patiently waiting!!!
I am from Vancouver, Canada, but my interview will be in Montreal i believe since my case number begins with MTL. NVC began processing my case on July 27th. I have been patiently waiting for a CC, but no luck. It has been 23 business days. My husband was told to call back everyday after next monday. Does anyone know how long between CC and interview date for Montreal? Do i have a chance of having an interview in August?
Ughh i miss my hubby

I never thought I would hear someone say they missed the hold at NVC...!!!! But I remember reading your story from when I first started lurking on VJ... and I remember it breaking my heart to read of it then. But you have certainly turned a bad situation into a blessed one for so many people, including yourself!! (L)

Just got confirmation of our interview for August 11th in Moscow!!!
