6 months of AP

[JULIAFERNO 0]

Julia,

Don't worry about what they said to you, they never told my husband everything was fine either (mostly because they probably knew this guy would be in AP for while) and the woman just said we need further processing like it was the scariest atmosphere she could make it out to be. I am sure that your checks will be done within 8 months, as Turkey cases do not usually take longer than that - and that should be the maximum you are looking at. Depending on if the checks get expired or not the AP can be doubled, I advise you to keep a close watch on DOS now, and e-mail the embassy, if it even makes them pull up your case, they may call your husband in as soon as the AP results are in.

God bless,

Tam

Praying for you, Julia, Jen, Cassandra, miamiwife and everyone else.

Thank you, Tammy!

How are you and your husband doing? How is he adjusting to life in the U.S.?

I wholeheartedly agree that having your relationship questioned is a horrible, horrid, experience. We still don't know if all the supplemental information we sent in on our first 221(g) finally answered that question. We did get a 2nd 221(g) for additional information that had nothing to do with our relationship, so we are taking that as a good sign...but the bonafides of a relationship can be sooooooo subjective. Part of me wishes we were just put straight into AP for security checks, at least I would have known that the relationship hurdle was crossed.

Yeah, that's why I said before I believe the hard part is over for us. I think if I had not been at the interview we would have gotten RFE'd too.

I wish you the best!
