Alhamdulillah visa in hand today!!!!!!!!!!! :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Congrats...

is the beneficiary male or female?

No, I am female and applied for my husband. Also, he was approved at interview but had to undergo 4 mos of AP, most likely it was a name check or something. I think too about the documents for the sponsorship since I made right on the level of what was required!

I am so pissed off right now.. I called on Tuesday and I was told that the file is in Washington.. I called a few mins ago and asked her if the file is still in Washington.. I was told no it's in Islambad so I asked her does it mean we are done with Washington.. she got angry and said.. NOTHING GOES TO WASHINGTON.. I just said thank you and ended the call!

This is sooo pathetic.. yes files do go to washington (probably not all but some) and I was told on Tuesday that it's in Washngton.. I dunno who to trust or not.. this is just plain crazy and annoying.
