Dwheels76,

thank you again for the information and the positive post! I will let her know!

Oh, and I am the petitioner.

Dwheels76,

thank you for the link. I have gone through a few pages and have noticed that certain documents could be requested prior to interview. Will these documents be stated prior to the interview date or must we bring all the same civil documents and forms that we sent to the NVC?

I am hoping that it won't be a problem, but my wife is the type of person who hears one small experience, and believes that it will effect everyone.

We got married in Japan and had our wedding ceremony in both Japan and Korea back in 2012. But because of my school, we are currently living on opposite sides of the ocean.

This is because they want everything sent in one package from now on, so until they have everything, they won't review it. Sending in items before they're checklisted only hurts you even though it seems like you're being proactive. The best thing to do is make sure everything is there in the first place.

why can't NVC just quote what you say? They write long letters and make things so complicated. It only takes two lines!

Hello again!

My wife has been hearing some rumors from friends that people are being denied their visas.

I am curious if anyone has experienced this or knows someone that has experienced this?

thanks,,,

I worked very closely with my congressman to keep a watch on the progress.

Curious... What did you do with the congressman? I have heard that they help, but don't know the necessary steps to get the help since I'm sure they are busy with other agendas.

Thank you Soojung for your post! I know that we're almost finished. I'm the passive/patient type, while she's the aggressive/short fuse type. t^_^ '

She also could take short trips during the weekends.

She says to me that it's a waste of money since I'm not with her. hahaha....

WOW, fellow members. I cannot thank you enough for all your supporting posts and ideas regarding my situation. And thank you for sharing your experiences with me.

I have talked to my wife, and she has decided to take some computer classes (since she's interested in starting own business).

We used to live in Japan (she worked as a chemical engineer, I as a teacher) for a while, but she disliked her job and we both wanted to go back to school in the states.

Not knowing how much longer it would take, we got our documents (my wife's civil documents and I-864 Affidavit of Support) and sent them as soon as we could since we wanted to have our interview at the embassy in Tokyo. But a few days after we sent our documents, we got a letter from NVC stating that our documents needed to be sent with a cover sheet, so we kind of jumped the gun. Later, they said that our I-864 was missing information and we had to resent it again. We tried calling NVC a couple weeks after, and all they said was, "we have it, but you need to wait 30-60 (business) days."

So that's it.

Again, thank you all for your support!

Good day fellow members.

I am trying to get an immigrant visa for my wife who is from Korea. We are at the final step of waiting for the NVC to look through our civil documents before she can get the interview, but it has been taking them far too long! We have been waiting for the past couple months only to get an email from them stating that it's going to take 60 days rather than the usual 30 days. I am here in California about to start graduate school and my wife is still in Korea doing nothing but waiting for the NVC to give the clear for her interview date for the past month. She's getting really, really impatient to the point where she could go insane and I don't know what to do or say to her. I've tried to calm her and tell her that we're almost finished (for the past month) only for it to fall on deaf ears. We're both very miserable, and the NVC call center just tells us that they're backed up and that there's nothing they can do about it. Has or is anyone in this situation? Who else can I get help from? What questions should I ask when I talk to NVC? Can she come to California and somehow finish it here? ()'

If anyone can help this distress post, it would be of great help.

Thank you.
