Peopl ask me everyday when she is coming and i have to say the same thing im waitng on immigration and it hurts. my fiance does not go outside because it is taking so long. when she does need to go people say to her....wow you are still here. that angers me soooooo much. it hurts to my bone. i dont know how much more time i can take. i HATE immigration i swear i wish i could just...............

i can sleep, i cant focus at work, i cant eat. im loosing it. i try to be stong when i talk with her on IM but today i broke down and cried. i tried to stop but the tears kept coming. she would tell me it is ok and i would stop, but then cry again.................im crying now. im so :angry: that i have started to cry instead. what can i do? can i move there? i will do anything i dont care. but this is killing me i swear.........i dont know what to do. im lost

AWWWWWW HUGS!! I understand how you feel. I was bawling yesterday for a few long hours because i miss him so bad.

I hate immigration as well...although i understand WHY they do what they do but it ticks me off that it is up to them no matter HOW much evidence you provide they can say no...who are THEY to tell us that it is NOT love..

It will be okay friend..it will happen..some do take longers then others BUT it will happen!!

BIG HUGS TO YOU BOTH!!!

I know that you're frustrated and upset but don't give up. Your NOA2 is probably just around the corner. As soon as you get it, everything else flies by. You've come this far, don't give up. Before you know it, she'll be here and you'll be living your life together. Keep the faith!

Rob&Dawn,

Sebastian was a bit worried about sending in packet 3 before receiving it, even though I've been begging him to! He's just extra paranoid about jeopardizing things. Of course, I finally talked him into just sending it when they decided to mail us packet 3. hehe. We have the checklist, so he's going to fill everything out tonight, scan me copies so I can proofread them and hopefully mail it tomorrow. Thanks for the 6 week timeframe info, I wasn't aware of that. You should be getting your interview date any day now!

i'm bugging the hell out of everyone in the hope that they get so fed up with me they give an interview date just to shut me up!!

didn't do us any harm sending in pkt3 early, but i get far too impatient to wait!

I'm in the same boat. I can't wait for the interview date. My fiance too. We both want it before the end of the month so we can progress to the next step. Another France July filer sent me a pm today. They sent their p3 2 days after us and received their interview letter today so I'm hoping for some good news asap.

hope you get the interview letter soon, you're so close now.

Hey you, How, dya get on with ya medical??? Have you an interview date yet??

Medical went well, Dr was a bit of a maniac taking the blood though!

Still no news on the elusive interview...will be back onto DOS today!

I'm sorry you've had to wait so long.

It's easy for people to say they understand but it was a different story when they were waiting and complaining for a few months for approval and are now on the final steps. That's not an attack on other filers, I just think it's hard to understand what Mohammed feels when your visas are coming in within weeks and he's still waiting for a NOA2.

I can't imagine how it must feel. Try to hang in there, people get approved after 5-6 months often.
