We are just a little bit behind you. We are finishing out things with NVC and they should be sending the case over to the local embassy (Japan in our case) soon. My wife calls the (Tokyo) embassy public assistance office about once a week to see if they have anything new on our case. We gave up waiting for the various offices to contact us...and we contact them asking them whats up with out case. We usually just get a run around or unclear answers but it seems to be better than waiting. Sometimes we've been told to please wait some more....then in a day some email will come from them. I'm not sure if the public relations people really know what the actual case workers are doing in the other rooms. It sometimes seems that they don't. I would recommend you contact the Sydney people regularly by email, phone, and old fashioned paper mail if you must. Keep knocking (nicely) and every now and again you will get answers and can better plan and predict your next steps. Good Luck!

Well i got Case Complete on Monday and got the e-mail on Tuesday/ yesterday. Now about the interview, all depends on the Embassy. I found out, by reading the statistics that Paris takes about 10 to 15 days to get a date and is always to the next month, so I am hoping July is the time.

Poppycock. The affidavit asks for information from three tax returns. This information can come from the return or from a Tax Return Transcript. Read carefully, interpret literally and answer accurately. You'll see on the affidavit itself where "providing" more than one tax return is optional. Providing information from three, when required to have filed all three, is what is NOT optional.

I think that they are just trying to by time, judging by other comments made about the service centers. Partly understaffed, partly uneducated ( about the process) and overloaded. All of the illegals got to go to the front of the line while all we "legals" got pushed back, thanks to somebody's president. You know him, the one that nobody said they voted for!

I feel the same way man. Not an arranged marriage, I chose this, but still the government has completely changed I feel about my marriage. In 3 years of knowing my wife I have spent less than 6 months face-2-face with her. I never imagined anything could cause this much psychological torment.

Entry on VWP is valid for 90 days stay. However, if she enters the US on a B2 she is allowed to stay for 6 months max. She would have to complete the process at her local embassy and should leave to complete the process there.
