Seriously ? Have you called them ? Did they tell you how much longer it will take them to do so?
I know how you feel ... These celebrations cause me heartache instead of joy cause they mean little when spent apart

It's a bout time ... Waiting since May 2013 ... I hope we get CC soooon and we will have a party together !
But I'm worried a couple of people from Jordan got checklists for the marriage certificate and it's puzzling since we have both marriage contracts and certificates some people sent both and STILL got a freakin checklist!!!!
Proves my theory that they are buying time

Hahahaha omg I couldn't help checking it back when I got a checklist imagine now that I'm on the 60 countdown !!!

So very slow on Thursdays and Fridays

It seems so quiet today. No CC yet?? It seems NVC is asleep today. Sending everyone good vibes and hope we all hear good news soon.

Lol I told I quit checking the n/a change so I have to find something else !!!
I wonder what will be next for my OCD -ing??? Lol
It really cheers me up I mean I danced for about four hours at the reception it was crazy! My husband must really love me to have to put up with that lol he is not so crazy about dancing

Inshalla soon you'll be together you are in my prayers and everyone who I struggling with nvc !
I keep looking at videos pictures etc just to relive the moments when we were together ... They are worth waiting for aren't they
When the time comes for me to move and leave my family I know I will be so sad so I'm trying to enjoy my time with them it's going to be a big change ...

I got a case complete today! Scan date was August 18. I am sooooo relieved to be done with the NVC phase but I am also sad for people like Soloenta, who have been waiting so long. I wish everyone the best and hope that you get yours soon! One love!

In the other thread there's a 08/19 scan date CC.
Wooooooooooooowwwww hurry uppppp NVC! It would be lovely to have approvals of September scan dates by the end of this month!!! (Dreaming is free right?)

New week! Woohoooooo!
InshAllah it brings loads and loads of happiness for us all!

You don't have to have Turkey for Thanksgiving hehehee and who cares what religion or atheist it's a party! :dance: :dance:
Happy Eid to all my Muslim family hope you have a happy one. Forgot to ask my husband today what Eid celebration is hahahaa bad bad wife. (L)
I'm so lazy I'll look it up geeeeeeeeeez.

I don't know what, but there is something about Nov and Dec. We tend to get lonely in winter?
When I found out my interview date (Nov 10), I thought "Yes, I'll be in the US for Thanksgiving!"
But....Wait! I don't even like a turkey meal since I think turkey is kind of dry.
I also thought.... "Yeah, I'll be in the US for Christmas too!" Wait! I'm not even a Christian!

Inshalla you'll get a dec interview dear! I know how you must be feeling my birthday is in Januaray too and hubby's birthday this month but hey we made it this far and Inshalla it will be over sooner than you think
Finally !!! Congraaaaats

November 10th (9:30am)!
Sweetie, you were right! I got an interview date on my immi-versary date!

Hello Everyone !!
I hope everyone is having a Fabulous Friday and great day of Day of Arafat for anyone celebrating Eid tomorrow
Quick Question! - I just tried calling the NVC customer service line ((603) 334-0700) a few times and it gives me the busy signal. Shouldn't it give me a menu and put me on hold?
~~~~ Best wishes that we all get Case Complete Soon, God Willing ~~~~
~ Sofi

It is official: CASE COMPLETE as of 10/2/2014. Interview is not scheduled yet, as Lisa @ NVC said, the paperwork was just reviewed. I pray I make the November round of Interviews. Last scan date 08/12.

Believe me it's no bueano so hard to gain it back !!!
Zumba is a fun way to lose weight it's the best cardio workout of al time

Lol yeah it seems that this quote fits perfectly

Finally case complete today. Scan date of July 31. Thanks everyone for everything!!!

Forgot to mention other details from my interview with all the drama:
1. All x-rays were returned to me and fingerprints were taken of me and my wife before the CO interview. No digital photos were taken. Kids were exempt... all four are under 14 years old.
2. All my originals were returned, including our PCCs since I provided copies of them in the IV package... that last bit was a surprise. CO simply compared the copies with originals then stamped the copies and handed over the originals.
3. CO did ask for the Kuwait marriage certificate even though we provided the US marriage certificate which predates it. I had it with me. Made a copy himself and stamped it then returned the original. He asked if I had a translation which I didn't (it was in Arabic) and he let it go at that.
4. My wife was called and asked a few questions, in my presence. CO asked several questions he asked of me about her and knew the answers by then to verify I was telling the truth. I did pre-warn my wife to tell the exact truth and not hide anything. I also warned her not to expand unnecessarily, or guess an answer if she wasn't sure. All our answers matched.
5. We both took an oath and digitally signed our DS-260 forms with our fingerprints. Kids were also called to the window and were given the chance to take the oath if they wanted to. They did with much excitement. I digitally signed for them.
6. CO asked for all available old passports. I was ready with nearly a dozen of them. He went through them and stamped the old foil visas with a "Cancelled Without Prejudice" stamp, even though they were expired already. The really old ones that used to be stamped-in in passports were ignored. CO also elected not to cancel our current B1/B2 visas, remarking specifically that he trusts us not to abuse them and risk our IV case. That was towards the end of the tense interview.
Note to all, especially those who used a lawyer to prepare their paperwork: Your lawyer will not be with you at the interview. Be well prepared mentally and documentarily. Arm yourself with the USCIS guidelines pertaining to your category. Tell the truth always but don't volunteer unnecessary information. Stay calm and courteous throughout, no matter what happens. Don't cower from defending your case, logically and calmly, if you notice the CO is missing the mark or attempts to intimidate you. Don't let the CO disarm you with his/her sweetness. Stay pleasantly formal throughout and keep your guard against any possible left-hooks. You're in for the interview of your life so don't fumble the ball needlessly.
Saying all that, I hope each of you will be one of the 90+% of all applicants who have a nice and uneventful 10-minute interview.

It turned out that NVC was working a little bit since I saw two CC (Aug 1 - scan date) on Facebook!
