  1. Thanks for your reply. This helps the group immensely. I think your visa category F2-A has a priority date that has to become current before you would get the passport request. I’m wondering if it became current in March when you got your request? Maybe someone can help us figure it out. Thanks for your reply. This helps the group immensely.

  2. Just want to clarify that you've been in AP for 25 months based on your march 2022 interview? And in the DS-5535 queue for around 21/22 months since July 2022. can you confirm for the group? Also do you mind sharing if the consulates request for your passport/medical etc came unexpectedly or had you noticed multiple updates on your case after you emailed them? Just trying to confirm the sequence of events that lead to passport requests from the consulate for the benefit of the group. TIA
  3. From previous Visajourney users I’ve seen that waited over a year, most were asked by the consulate to update their DS-260 form along with submitting their passport and medical.
  4. Thanks for sharing your story so far with us. Really hope you get to enjoy this part of the journey now, the excitement and all that goes with it!! Keep us updated which I’m sure you’ll do. Wishing you all the best.
  5. Congratulations WMBB. Happy for you and your family after all you’ve been through. Great to see Montreal moving again. Can you let us know some details like did you have a WOM ongoing? Have you had some unsolicited or solicited updates in the last 1-2 months? Have you emailed the consulate often during your time waiting? Sorry for all the questions but it’s so helpful to hear how people’s journeys have progressed before getting passport requests and such. TIA.
  6. Just Daftcat I think. I’ve had updates that correspond with email replies. Superluminal has received an unsolicited update a couple weeks ago as far as we know and is our new hopeful case.
  7. Awesome!! Well an initial update with no email reply from them is a good thing 🤞🏻🤞🏻
  8. Can you let us know if it corresponds with an email reply from the consulate 🙏🏻
  9. Collectively as a group there are legal means in which we could make our voices heard!! Maybe it worth exploring!!
  10. Hey, I just received word for word the same response to an email I sent a couple weeks ago. Not sure what to make of it to be honest. "Additional security screening is being conducted" to me means DS-5535 is still ongoing but there's definitely a more negative and stern undertone to this response.
  11. That's a good idea. Do you get to see how long they've been in AP?
  12. Are these approvals from Montreal that were in AP? DS-5535? Or resume?CV?
  13. No recent activity at all. Last update was in December which coincided with a generic response to an email I had sent previously. Pity I haven't kept an eye on it until now so I could have known when it was re-opened.

  15. Hey Guys Does anyone know if your DS-260 is Re-opened what that actually means? I'm wondering if others have noticed their DS-260 being Re-opened too? TIA
  16. Will be following your progress here intently. Sending you good vibes towards hearing some positive news from the consulate soon. You've waited long enough.
  17. Have you heard this from people who received visas in the end? I posted a while back if people who got their visas noticed unsolicited updates on the CEAC tracker prior to receiving their passport requests but no one responded. I can't blame them from not being on here either though lol.
  18. That sucks. You'd think if they opened your case after so many months unsolicited they would be making a decision. Maybe their getting ready to contact you still, seems they usually request passports around a month after receiving clearance from the DOS. The holidays may have delayed the request also. Hope you hear something soon.
  19. Think it’s across the board seeing as it’s Federal regulation. To be honest I think it may not mean that the CO will actually reconsider an application unless they’ve received the clearance first. Perhaps if the clearance has come in for a case and that clearance info has been lost amongst the pile of info the consulate receives a reconsideration of the visa may prompt the CO to dig for the clearance itself. That’s best case scenario I feel. Just trying to be optimistic. https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-22/chapter-I/subchapter-E/part-42/subpart-I/section-42.81
  20. Our Interview was in March and still news. Hopeful signs last week with two April interviewers receiving unsolicited updates on CEAC tracker. Just to add for anyone interested, I seen a post by Red Eagle Law on X that stated that by law a refused visa must be reconsidered by the consular officer on the 1 year anniversary from the interview date provided that the applicant was asked to and provided additional information post interview. We would all meet this criteria since we've given them the DS-5535. Who knows if that actually means they do anything.
  21. My last two emails received responses in October and December about a month after I sent them. I haven't sent an email since November as it just seems pointless. Not sure if anyone on here has ever really had a positive response to an email inquiry. Although someone recently posted that their congressman received an email response from the consulate stating they would request passport be returned to the consulate soon. I just cant see the consulate responding to a personal inquiry with the same email but hopefully that can be proved wrong.
