They are both USC's petitions

They are? Why were the cases assigned like 3-5 years ago and just now getting processed? My bad. it sounded like a situation where they were filed by LPR and had to wait for a visa number to come up. Why would their NVC time take so long?

Mike's dad filed for him and because he was over 21 and married he had to wait for a visa number to become available. His dad is a USC....lol

Kishmar's husband just became a USC and their case was upgraded....lol

You got me Marlita..was trying to trick you

Just for some clarification:

My husband file our I-130 in Sept 05 at that time he was a LPR....he got natrualize in January 08 (at which time our case was upgraded). My cas was completed on April 25, 08 (tomorrow will make 2months).

Hope you all have a better understanding on my case now.

Thanks,

Kishmar

Oh I know Jamaica was under British rule, its just so funny to hear when Jamaican write or speak the Queens English, cause its just so proper and completely opposite of patois I think it odd. I notice that many seem to speak that way when trying to be professional but it just makes me laugh. Idk, I just think it sounds so weird.haha

I noticed on the kingston embassy website they are starting to schedule August dates...Just a suggestion to Tash, Forbes, Kishmar, you guys should call the DOS 202# and see if they got you scheduled for August...didn't Trulo get his interview date on April 30 and the DOS# was the one who told him???....I feel anxious for you guys...I want to see ya'll in the august bunch.... ...

I was not aware of the fact that the DOS can tell you anyting until your case is sent to Kingston. Trulo said that his case was completed on March 7, he received interview for June 3 (he was contacted by them during the first week of May) so i dont know what to say. I really hope to hear something from them soon. (actually today is exactly 2 months since my case was completed)

I'm right behind you Kishmar. My husbands case was completed early May, we got to NVC in March. So if the theory of when your KNG case number was assigned works I have been waiting 4 months already and am just hoping for a August date. i don't know what the #202 number is. I hear alot of Yardies talk about it, but I don't think it works til you are at Kingston. Which is after an interview date for CR1/IR1 filers. I think the #202 is good for K visas to have a stateside contact while their case is at the Embassy. Since our case is still at NVC it seems that they are the only ones who can give us info right now.

Typical - Did you click the electronic calendar though? It shows appointments booked solid all the way through June 2009 - How is someone supposed to book then?

haha, yeah that stupid thing dont work. It says every day of every month is booked, but then it says "date unvailable" when they really get booked. I dont know why they have that. At least it helped me figure out that they were scheduling in August once I saw the colors start to change.

So, who the hell is actually in charge of that calendar? Because, like you said, it doesn't work. It hasn't worked in at least 2 years. WTH do they still insist on saying that is the way to schedule appointments when everyone at the embassy knows it isn't? It's so confusing to people. I am actually outraged that they would post that as a press release when the information is wrong. Does anyone ever pay any attention there???????????

Someone always ruins it for someone else, don't they?
