Dwheels, just an update....I received our DHL email stating that visa is available for pick up. Yupppppppeeeeeee!!!

OMG that is awesome. And thank you so much for the compliment. Now I know for Kingston you guys have a special unique way to get your Visa.

You are all registered at DHL correct And personally I wouldn't buy a ticket until Hubby says I have Visa i hand.

Dwheels this process is totally new for me. In 2004 I petitioned for my mother and the process took 11 months then. This one took approximately 2 yrs. I also agree with you as far as buying his ticket. I told him to take his bag with him when he goes to pick it up and then head straight to the airport......LoL

I guess I wasn't paying attention. I wrote in the wrong forum. Anyways, Dwheels, I want to say thank you for all your support. My husband had his interview in Kingston, Jamaica on 10/6/15 and was placed on administrative processing. On 11/2 I decided to check the status of the case and saw ISSUED. My husband and I are so excited that this visa journey is over. Anyone knows how long would it take for us to have the visa in hand? I'm so ready to purchase his ticket.

Dwheels, I would like to thank you so much for your support on VJ. My husband had his interview on Oct 6th 2015 in Kingston Jamaica and was placed on administrative processing....today I decided to check the status and it said ISSUED. I am so excited that this visa journey is over. Is it safe to say I can purchase his ticket?

If I am not mistaking....your father in law had to submit an I130 for each person. If not then your brother in law would have to come and petition for them.

Interview was done on Oct 6th....case is still showing administrative processing. Is this normal for Jamaica? Should I be worried?

CEAC PORTAL shows administrative processing. CO is concerned about my name change before I got married. She told my husband that she has to do some more US check. She also asked him if he has ever been to the US and was he ever arrested in the US? He's been to the US before because he used to work on a cruise ship, which went out of business and he's never been arrested.

What did the white slip of paper say? I guess they have some more administrative wok to do. Which is normal with your embassy being so backlogged they might not have finished their investigation, or waiting for a report o something Just a waiting thing now. Good thing they kept passport.

The CEAC Status shows Administrative Processing. I'm not sure what else they could be checking? My husband told me that they were concern about my name. I had a Deed Poll done when I was 15 to change my name from my step-father's name to my biological father's name. I had submitted a copy of the deed poll with all the other documents when I 1st petitioned for my husband. Also when I applied for my citizenship, it was submitted to USCIS back in 2004. My military records should also show the changes. Well I guess we just have to wait some more for them to do their investigation.

My husband just completed his interview in Kingston Jamaica. He was not told if it was approved or not. They kept his passport, gave him a white slip and told him if they don't call him, he should receive his visa through DHL. I'm feeling nervous and unsure of what does that mean. Some of the questions they asked him were: Have you ever been locked up, here or abroad? Where did you meet your wife? Have you ever travelled before?

Any suggestion my VJers?

For all Jamaica's recent interviews, can anyone tell how long after an approval does it take to get visa in hand.

My husband completed his medical on 9/22 in Kingston Jamaica. The process was almost all day. He got there at 8am and did not leave until 3pm. He said they checked everything. Each vaccine he received was $4000JA. He only needed 3. He was told to come and pick up his results on 10/02. Interview is scheduled for 10/06.

To all my Jamaicans awaiting interview....Andrews Memorial Hospital seems to be the only place that is currently conducting medicals. My husband's medical is scheduled for 9/22. We were told to bring $15240 for registration and an extra $15000 for possible vaccines. We were also told it is a lengthy process and to expect being there all day. Good luck to everyone awaiting interviews. Dwheels...thank you for your time and information. Our interview is 10/06 and we asked that everyone keep us in your prayers. Thank you.

Got interview scheduled today for Oct. 6th and received P4 Letter via email today. I was shock at how fast NVC is working now.

All my Jamaica VJ members please call NVC asap. Just got off the phone and my husband's interview is Oct. 6th at 8am. I am so happy.

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and your encouragement words and visa journey.wow wow wow wow

I am so ecstatic right now and it's not even me. My cc was right after yours so I am calling in the am to see what I will hear. Congrats and good luck.

What is going on with NVC? Why is it that no one from Jamaica getting any interview? There are some of us waiting almost 3 mths.

I just called NVC and still no interview after CC 5/27/2015

Monday will be our 2 yrs anniversary. This distance between us and this unknowing waiting is driving us crazy. Our CC was May 27, 2015 and we are still waiting for an interview. I stop calling NVC because they have no answers for you. I just track the spreadsheet to see when interviews are being scheduled. I pray that God will let NVC start scheduling interviews very soon.

Did you receive a response back when you contacted the president or his administration?

When the case was at USCIS....I received a call from someone from his administration. I had also sent a fax to my Senator and they also responded. I'm not sure who contacted USCIS at the time but my paperwork started moving. I sent an email to his administration yesterday pertaining to NVC and I will be sending a fax to my senator by the end of the week.

I sent an email to The U.S. President and voiced my frustration. When my case was at USCIS....I did the same thing and got my case moving as well as a call from someone from Obama's Administration. I'm trying again about NVC and see what happens. Maybe if we all send individual emails, something can be done.

The hospital actually called my husband and gave him a medical date instead of him calling and scheduling. I guess it's different with expedited cases...but it's scheduled for 8/28 and thanks

Good luck on your surgery and I wish you both the best.

The waiting continues for the rest of us.

74 days and still nothing. Pulling my hair out.

Has anyone hear anything about the embassy in Jamaica this is driving me crazy I just need to know.

62 days and still waiting...I'm going to call Monday. Good luck all.
