what is the email for the Embassy in Islamabad?

Don't worry... hopefully you guys will be out sooon! I was in AP for only 6 days... give it a week and then call them and find out about the status of your case

Hopefully this week will be the weeek for all of you who didn't get your approval notices yet!

Omar that is really good that you got the interview date in less than a month. Usually I hear the interviews are given a month after the packet 4 is sent. I hope you will tell us how your interview goes insha'Allah

thank you al-hubb!

You know, there used to be a time where I would be looking forward to holidays... now I just wish there weren't any holidays for this year so my petition can be worked on LOL... anyone feels the same way? please say yes lol

My husband had the interview 06/08/09. Got a call from American Express on 22nd. Received the visa on 06/23/09. But issue date is 06/12/09. Very happy.

yayyyy congradulations! I'm so happy for you!

yayyyy Maysa, I'm happy for you, I hope you get all the funding needed to be together again with your husband

Mwa, I would say call/e-mail next week... the packet is probably in the mailing room and the staff hasn't got to it yet

sounds goood... I hope my fiance gets an interview and gets a date soon

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!!!! 26 days to go.. ROman you are closer and happier. Hello Liz. Maire the reunion is getting closer and closer by the day.

I guess our consulate is open Monday, because I checked the website and the holidays they observe are July 3, and they are closed Saturday and Sunday on a regular basis... maybe Monday is another holiday for that country?

I can't wait until my SO gets his interview... the consulate is closed July 3 for observance of Independence day, and they are closed Sat and Sun, so my petition will arrive there on Monday...how long does it normally take for them to send a packet 3? a week?

Thank you Mary and the rest of you for giving me informative advice... you all have been very helpful!

My case is out of AP at NVC, and it was forwarded to the consulate on June 29, I'm just praying as I'm waiting patiently for that interview letter insha'Allah... and as far as AP goes, we both are well prepared for it... i think

Usually there is a cover letter that comes with a packet and on the bottom it says if you would like to be notified of your interview date via email, write down your email or your petitioner's email. You can also email the consulate on your fiance's behalf.

As far as the interview date goes, every consulate is different. For my fiance, I believe they schedule an interview one month after they process the submitted forms. To give him time to go to one of the physicians listed by the consulate.

To be on the safe side, you should e-mail the consulate and ask of any new procedures in terms of how the interview date is issued, or any other documents needed at the time of the interview.

Don't worry Laura! I hope this speedy process on AP continues, I was in AP for 6 days. I called NVC today and was told that my package was sent on June 29 to the consulate. You will be out of there in no time!

Thank you ... i hope so

Afghanistan ...

Ok I have a question... when i called nvc they said my case was shipped out on June 29... now when I put june 29, I see my consulate, but when I put june 28 it says no shipments found? I checked june 30 and there are no petitions sent to my consulate but there are other petitions sent out. So what conclusion should I make out of this?

YESSSS IM OUT OF AP!! JUNE 29 MY CASE WAS SENT OUT WOOOHOOOOOOOO!

Hmmm, I'm going to think about that... I'm just waiting for him to get an interview date... and how can I prove I was never married? They can search up all the marriage certificates registered and I can guarantee they will not find me at all, how else would they want me to prove that I was never married?

Let's all hope that this AP goes by fast, apparently there is no way around it. I think it should just be included in the instructions of Packet 4, that after the interview you will be put into AP if you are a male lol Anyhow, insha'Allah everything will go smooth and easy. Just don't give up, I mean if they passed the interview and you know you have a clean record, you will pass the AP as well. Don't stress yourself everyone, insha'Allah this will all be just a mere memory a year from now.

it's soo goood to see everyone getting their interview dates! i can't wait for our petition to get out of AP so we can finally get started with the documents.

i know i hope so too! .... congradsss d n m .... i hope they continue this fast paced work of theirs!

What I did was I wrote the full name, and USA... i forgot to put the A number and they didn't request for anything... weird huh? However, I submitted an additional letter like 2 weeks after submitting the petition including the A#, voluntarily.

ellmvl, thank you so much! so if the status is withdrawn then that will show up in the system right? You just made my morning bright seriously!

The thing is, I'm not the one that is being interviewed, it is my fiance. My concern is that the current petition for my fiance won't get revoked because of the first petition since it is withdrawn right?

thank youu! i just noticed now ... i'm still a newbie... how can i delete a topic?

Here is my story...

When I filed my first i-129f petition, I had a lawyer who persisted on getting an engagement certificate, supposedly it would make the case stronger. There are no engagement certificates at my fiance's country, so he got a marriage certificate at a stationery and crossed out all the marriage parts and input engagement. It was approved by USCIS but revoked by the consulate at Islamabad, stating that the beneficiary and the petitioner (which is I) are now married. However, we were not married and that certificate wasn't even registered. It got sent back to USCIS with the reason and is now at USCIS. Our relationship fell apart, so we didn't continue with that petition. This happened a year ago. The petition was revoked in May 2008

I filed a second i-129f petition for a different person (with a different laywer) and it is approved by the USCIS and is at NVC undergoing additional processing. My question here is, will the consulate in Islamabad revoke this petition because of the first petition? My new lawyer wrote that I stated under oath i was never married to my former fiance and do not wish to pursue that petion no more as our relationship fell apart. And my new lawyer says that the petition is now dismissed.

Would the consulate of Islamabad hold up the case as well? Please let me know for those of you who are familiar with the procedures of the consulate in Islamabad or how strict they are.

My fiance knows about my former fiance and why our relationship fell apart.

For those of you who are familiar with how the consulate at Islamabad is, please help me out in giving advice, thank you
