Cool!! i can't believe that time for march filers came :) I saw you scheduled your wedding on 1 Sep 07. We scheduled on 1 Dec 07, but some people here tell us that it is big risk. and what do you think? :)

We haven't booked anything, we haven't sent out invitations and haven't paid for anything. It's too risky. We're going to do that once I have a date for the interview.

If they approve us within the next 20 days chances are very high that it works out because for Germany the average time between NOA2 and the interview seems to be about a month. I have to work until August 24th, so we're not going to have a lot of time before getting married...

OK :) We hope that I will have visa in hand by September. Hopefully we will get NOA-2 max by July. US consualte process will take max 50 days in Kazakhstan. That's why we scheduled on 1 December. So I wish to you and everyone here to realise thier plans as they scheduled it :) Good luck! :)
