I just wanted to thank all of you out there on this forum helping each other out, if it wasnt for you guys I would still be probably waiting for a while longer for my case to be completed. YES, I can finally say it...MY CASE IS COMPLETED AT NVC!!!!!, I called again today before bed thinking I probably wouldnt hear anything different since the guy yesterday told me it would take another 10-15 days to look over the originals that they have recieved from me on March 24th. Well the lady surprised me ofcourse, i didnt expect that answer. For all of you out there still going through what i have went through, one advice...just dont give up and try to get all of the documents ready to send in as soon as they are generated. I made 2 mistakes but still it was fast, at least i think so comparing to others that have went through NVC. I never got a RFE, all you need is a copy of the checklist that they send with the directions, make copies always just in case you forget or need to send original documents in, the mistake that i made. I didnt wait for the Request for evidence, i just sent it in with the checklist and no problem. No we wait for the embasy to become available so they can schedule my wife an interview, i dont know how fast they are in Poland but Im hoping we dont have to wait that much longer. Well anyways, thanks again for everyone that has helped me in some sort of way. I will still be posting on this forum, just thought i would give most of the credit to YOU GUYS. THANKS A TON :thumbs: !!!
