  1. Same, anxiously waiting for @Daft_Cat and @Canucklehead to be the next ones approved 🤞. That may mean that Mar,Apr, May is up next.
  2. How long has he been in AP. I've noticed you dont have a timeline on the Spreadsheet.
  3. In my experience from talking to a bunch of different firms, I would take 50% of what they say as the truth and 50% as a sales pitch. Respectful firms however usually give you thorough, thorough explanations if they would take your case or not and How & Why they believe it would be in your best convenience and interest TO file or NOT TO file at the current time. AT MINIUMUM I would talk to 3-5 Law Firms before deciding to choose the right representative. Youll usually know what your case is like in reality if a bunch of lawyers start cross referencing what the other lawyers say. Just my healthy piece of advice imo after throwing $4000.00 of my own money into a fire-pit.
  4. Hi @MTLaffectee and welcome to the club. If you want to see a full broken down timeline look at my most recent post. I am about to hit Month 10 and I really don't want others to make the same mistakes I did when Waiting / Filing a WOM. I know the consulate and countries are different but it seems like all outreach and legal action is followed by the same protocols in most DS-5535 / 221(G) AP cases for those that are waiting to clear. The first thing I would advise for you to do though, is to email the consulate and ENSURE they actually got your wife's DS-5535 so that you aren't just sitting and waiting for nothing.
  5. Different Embassy I am aware, but I submitted a FOIA through USCIS and am awaiting a response. If you want to get answers for your specific case I would start immediately as these things take time. I believe they had expedited processing for specific reasonings but only on the FOIA Website.
  6. Absolutely. Urena & Associates. Although the price may have changed
  7. The Judge just dismissed my case everyone. After 8 Months of fighting for this Visa for my Fiance, $4000 is now flushed down the drain. Do not file unless its been 11 months minimum in my opinion. See Below:

  9. Hey buddy can you update your timeline on Visa Journey for everyone to see. That would really help give us motivaiton to keep going.

      I would but I was DV, so the timelines don’t make sense.

      All good. How long was your 5535 process then

  10. PART 3 for this DS-5535 thread holy hell, welcome to history folks. Its 2024 and some of us still are waiting to be cleared. If you're reading this from the future, I hope the future has been kind to you all and has changed this 221(G)/DS-5535 Policy.
  11. Holy Jesus, were approaching PART 3 of this Forum at an Alarming rate. I first saw Part 1 before I sent my petition into USCIS And watched Part 2 for the first time when I got my 221(G)/DS-5535 8 months ago.. The fact that this is real feels shocking to my core (as im sure alot of you feel) 💔
  12. From what I've seen Montreal Canada and Ankara Turkey seem to be the top 2 contenders for having the most dreadful experiences with AP. Almost 9 months in with my Fiance, and I feel like hope is slowly slipping away from me at times. But I always to try the very hardest to keep my mind clear and believe this confusing process that has led so many of us up to this point is almost over. I cant even begin to fathom how many people we have lost up to this part of AP for without a good cause and so many beautiful relationships that have died-- metaphorically or otherwise. And I just hope we can all help motivate eachother and help eachother get better through this together
  13. Ours was in Early May' 23. You can see my timeline on my page but this thread is about Montreal and I dont want to derail and have my comment removed. I do have a forum for 5535 on my page that does have a ton of useful tips for anyone that needs it though for any country.
  14. Welcome to the club, I wrote a timeline on my most recent post explaining everything you need to know and how to best navigate DS-5535/221(G) Best of luck
  15. If you're going to file I would say now is the right time. If you want to wait a little longer for a stronger case I would say that's a good idea but now would be a great opportunity for the both of you to consider.
  16. Greetings All, Just wanted to start a Mena DS-5535 Forum, as it seems tons of people here go through this process and have no platform to vent. I am not sure how deep this rabbit hole will go but I hope this will become a venue everyone can talk and vent and retain information lost with those throughout this process. As of right now, here is my timeline everybody: I hope you all gain something from this: 08MAY2023 - Interview Date - Ready 09MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - Documents not Submitted. 10MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - Documents Submitted 11MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - No Action on our Behalf 22MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - No Action on our Behalf 24MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - No Action on our Behalf 26MAY2023 - Refused 221(G) - No Action on our Behalf 06JUNE2023 - Refused 221(G) - No Action on our Behalf 20JUNE2023 - WRIT OF MANDAMUS FILED - PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS and Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief against RENA BITTER, ANTONY J.

We had started the process to file a Writ of Mandamus after 40 days and spent $4000.00. We used Morrison-URENA. There is a Telegram Group called 'mandamus_ap' on Telegram if you give it a search that has a list of verified lawyers to give you some additional guidance that I highly recommend. Although I cannot provide the link here, you can type what I put in bold and the group will pop up. As for now. Lets see where this goes everyone. My fiance and I have 10 days left until the Gov't has to respond so wish us luck!
