Not at all. I would like to know at least what caused this or what is going on but nothing. I reached out to the Embassy and they just ask to wait. I miss him

I mean I don't even consider us long distance because I don't think anyone has a similar story. We have a 10 hour time difference so in all these years of our relationship that were long distance I haven't slept past 4-5 hours MAX, I don't know what a social life is because all my friends stopped inviting me after I declined their requests 20+ times, we just always wanted to be with each other. I had to leave my schooling so he could continue his studies and we can still talk, I had cut off my work because of this too so I've never had a steady job that lasted more than 2-3 years. Talk about spending each waking hour with each other either on phone, text messages, video calls and primarily phone before all the video technology was available. We wouldn't even have been long distance if it wasn't for my status in the US, when I left Pakistan and came to the US I was dependent on my family and we had a hard time and couldn't visit back for a long long time. I feel like I waited my entire life to start a life with him, it's so hard because NOW I don't have the option to leave my job so even our communication isn't the way it used to be and we're not used to that. Both of us are depressed and frustrated with this whole thing as this point.

Wow, she didn't learn after the first 2 if not the first!? I'm honestly sick of seeing these stories, I've heard from family members about people whose marriage fell off after the guy got a green card .... Where was their AP?

I've known my hubby since we were 6 year old, went to same school, hung around same area and have literally spent all our adult lives talking to each other day and night, and when I say day and night I really mean 24/7. We sacrificed so much of our education and career building time just to be with each other. We spent $90,000 NOT exxegerating on just calling cards and phone cards because when there was no skype, viber we still spoke to each other for 16+ hours on some days doing nothing else. Same age, same background, I never thought it would be a such a huge issue and take this long. Honestly, besides a little blunder that he made being nervous our case had NO red flags what so ever. We have only a thousands of emails since 2000, we didn't keep our messaging history of talking 24/7 but I doubted that matters because we submitted years and years back of calling, text records and past 4-5 years history as well. This just pisses me off, I wish I knew to apply earlier for him but we waited until he completed his studies in accounting. I just CANNOT deal with this AP #######, I feel like suing them for mentally torturing the ####### out of me.

I cannot leave my job and I cannot be away from him so if this ####### takes longer, I'm just going to have to be with him and I doubted my job would relocate me because I've indirectly asked already. It just makes me cry, we've waited for each other our entire teenage years and never been with anyone else and every time we're together it feels like a dream come true and it was so hard parting from him. There has been days that I've cried and been depressed, I can't work or concentrate on anything. We had no idea what we were getting into at age 15, I miss him!!!! I just want this to end and end now!!!!

Visiting CEAC for the 1000th time now, somebody make me stop. I accidentally entered a 6 instead of 7 in our case number and someone elses case came showing ISSUED, I jumped and then cried when I realized it wasn't our case.

From what I have read on this forum, 221g and slips are really common in US Embassy of Islamabad, Pakistan. I just don't want to think negative at all. They did keep his passport. I just hope and pray that this ends soon. I haven't slept properly for 4 days now, I feel crazy.

That is horrible. All that for writing the check as a later date!? Who does that!? I hope the city does SUE the ####### out of them. I hope you don't have to pay a penny and get it done your way. The manager is a JERK face.

Fine them heavy*

Honestly I do not know what I will do because leaving job for me would is the last option but I know he can't be without me anymore. It is not an option at all because I have my bills and expenses. I already work from home but they may not allow me to work in Pakistan so I will need a job that will allow me to work in Pakistan. This would mean leaving Apple, and going with another company that would let me work at home. I need income but I will leave anything for him.

I need to be able to maintain my salary for i864 to be able to support him.

I honestly feel this shouldn't be done to Citizens either. I totally understand their need for background checks but they can't hire someone just to do it for us!? I am still hoping my hubbys AP process goes by soon just because he didn't get any 221g at all and his interview was barely 5-10 mins. They did not even ask him for anything at all. If it's not done in the next 30 days, leaving my job and going to him.

Awwww Natasha!!!! Hugs to you girl. I know it's hard. We have been committed since we turned 15 and knew each other since childhood growing up, school and everything. We have waited long enough and it just kills me that we are still waiting . I cannot bare this wait anymore, I miss him!!!!

I hope your hubby gets an interview soon. God will get you past this for sure, it's just a matter of "when". Keep up the faith and he will be with you soon. I am sorry you had to wait so long, I will pray for you guys. Love

My husbands interview was March 31st, the CO said our case looks good but said he will be in AP process for 2-3 months and it is mandatory. Whatever that means, for me it just means I can't see my hubby now. He did not get any slip or 221g of any kind. Please pray for me and if you have any ideas as to if this sounds like a short AP or a long AP!? I check CEAC 40 times daily if not more. I might have to leave my job if this becomes too long . Please pray he gets his Visa issued within this month. Thank you to all. I pray that everyones gets scheduled for the interview soon and everyone gets approved right away.

I did @amkhan

I realized that after I typed in but there was no way to edit. I know that conditional residence visa changes after 2 years. So ours was an CR1 which would be IR1 now.

I know, I am not. I know he was nervous about the "Have you traveled anywhere else?" question because he has been to Iran for a pilgrimage and he was told that would be an issue with any CO more than likely and the question about "Did your wife apply for a fiance visa?" came right after that and he was completely nervous at the time and replied "I think so". The issue is tht if they doubted a bonafide marriage than they would ask for evidence or documents which he had plenty plenty of but they did not ask for anything at all. He gave in the marriage certificate only and to the guy at the counter before the interviewer. I hope it is a short AP, I would think if they doubted that they would ask for additional stuff. My hubby said he is not sure because he was so nervous and lost after the travel question but he thinks the counseler used the word "approve", and the counseler says ur case looks good.

I worked so so hard and he took a well organized binder with over 200 pages of different documents and evidence. The CO did not ask for much at all, the marriage certificate was collected at a separate counter and the CO asked abt a location in our honeymoon pic and gave back all pics sent to NVC. The CO did not ask for ANY evidence or documents or even pics.

It doesn't matter if he gets his passport back, I just want to know what could happen. I just do not understand why he would be asked that questions and wht the heck my hubby was thinking. My hubby knew this was a spouse visa, the letter and every paper says it and he was calling me his wife throughout the interview. I am hoping that he gets it because I do not think it is hard for any CO to give a denial, 221g or aby other slip. Keeping my fingers crossed, I know he was nervous so I am not gonna give him a hard time over this but I am FREAKING OUT

Thank you to the both of your for replying to my thread so fast. I guess I had to vent, Thank you for replying.

I just want to cry now, it's been forever.

Why would the CO even ask that question? He could've been easily confused only because the CO asked him this. I sent in only 500 pages of marital relationship and proof. I don't know what's wrong with him honestly, I did everything I could to prove a proper marriage which it was and I feel he completely blew it.

I don't even know how to tell him what he is right now because seriously .... it seems like he was sleep interviewing. Ughhhh .... The CO did refer to me as his wife the entire time and my hubby also replied saying that I'm his wife but when the CO asked .... is this a fiance visa, he said I think so. What do you think this could result in?

My hubby is a gigantic .... I don't know what to call him. The CO asked him if this was a fiance visa and he said "I think so", our visa is IR1 which would be a CR1 by now. I don't know what to do now, the CO may be thinking against our relationship.

Hi Everyone,

I've been reading VJ forever but didn't register, I thought I would register after my hubbys interview to post time line and procedure. My hubby had his visa interview today and I don't know what to think of it. They only asked him a few questions, my hubby has traveled to Iran and I knew that would come up as question and the CO did ask about travel anywhere else and my hubby honestly answered that he has visited Iran for a pilgrimage in 2007. The CO said to him that everything in our case looks good but he would be under administrative processing. They did keep his passport but he did not get any slip, he didn't get any slip at all which may hint that everything is good. I was not really not hoping an AP for my hubby because his case and name was simple, nothing that would ring an issue. I'm not sure, does it sound like a short process from the fact that they did not an issue any slip at all? CEAC reads AP right now but he literally finished his interview about an hour ago. I'm staying positive and thinking it shouldn't be long at all, but please let me know if anyone here has had a similar experience. I read in ISL reviews testimony from a lot of males that they were approved right at the end of interview, all from 2015 interviews at the Islamabad embassy.

I would really appreciate any input on this issue.

Thank you
