congradulations to all approved i see lots of changes since i last logged on. :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

and yes BrazilianXuxu we are still in the same boat. who knows why we have been so unlucky. its true about estadia but i believe sunnybear found out it was due to security checks due to her being married before to a guy in military. :unsure: perhaps if she runs accross this she might be able to give more clarification but i believe, she did find out what the hold up was. :unsure:

we did put myi-194 number on the petition though as i was in the usa at time of filling out the form. but it was taken at lax before bording so i dont see how it could upset it. :unsure:

Congrats to all the recent NOA2-ers and good luck to all those who are waiting! You will get yours soon!

I've heard that your fiance can send in documents before getting Packet 3 but the Indian Consulate website says to bring all the documents to the Interview, not send it to the consulate before the interview. I think all that is returned from Packet 3 is a signed form stating that you have all the documents required. Am I missing something?

My only thought is when they went through the stack, there was something not done, maybe backgrounds, having trouble contacting people, who knows. So it was scanned in, looked over, then for one reason or another tossed back into the pile and maybe it went to someone else who's slow. I really wish for all the cost and time that's spent here regarding our petitions we could get more official answers.

As it is I find it ridiculous I have to go through the government to approve of my relationship.

First a huge sorry for being so selfish and not saying a huge CONGRATS to all those approved.... I had to step away from the computer because it is just so hard to see so many approvals and still nothing..... with that said, thank you so much for being supportive....

Do you think that the fact that Adriano was in in the US on a J1 visa, then had it changed and extended a couple times while he lived and took some classes here?? And then he went back and got a crew member visa (sorry I stink, Ihave no idea which visa that is) Would that be holding it up? He was never here illegally, but had a couple different visas??

I think I'm at the lowest point I've been on this "journey" yet.... do you think God will be more likely to respond if I have my preschoolers pray for us???? :blush:

You're most likely going to be next for approval. We were at 152 days when we were notified...wish you all the luck in the world

Hey Jessica, I think my posting problem is with AOL, so i'm using my lap top instead of the one in my office. Anyway, I'm hoping you'll get your NOA2 before the weekend,, I'll be watching for it. You left a message that I should start requesting the police cert now, before I know if NVC recieved the approval?

Any VJ traveler can answer this question. Is the request for a "Police Certificate" just simply a criminal history printout? or is it a request based on a certain documentation? just a little confused, other wise I can have it done at work. Anyone who's done this part of the process already, your help would be appreciated. Thanks, and good luck to those waiting for NOA2's

Hi Don, good to see you back! About the police certificate, that's what Brad told me (Brad and Vera) who were approved at the beginning of Sept. This is what he said to me:

"Packet was mailed to Vera on the 22nd, but she didn't receive yet. She is traveling to her home state atm to collect police certificates. Called the DOS and they had interview date for us and they informed us that packet4 was sent.

If u haven't collected police certificates now, do so... although the certificates are valid for only 3 months the Rio consul will accept to 1 year after issue date. Also have the signatures on the certificates notarized.

I assume packet 4 contains all material here:

http://www.embaixadaamericana.org.br/index...amp;itemmenu=58

minus the DS-156 (u must fill form online then print)"

Apparently Rio sends packet 3 and 4 together and gives you the interview date. Adriano is leaving in 2 weeks to go to work for NCL (if we're not approved by then.... but I'm not holding my breath) and he'll have to stay for at least a month. So if we get approved while onboard, it'll take about a month before he'll be able to be back in Brazil. So we're trying to get as much ready as we can so if that's the case, we're ready to go. Would be sooooooooo much easier if they just approved us already.... or even give us a decision either way. If we don't get approved... guess who's moving to Brazil?? At least I'd get to improve my Portuguese!! Who needs grad school anyway? :unsure:

Here's hoping today's a good day for someone (maybe Hannah!).... God has to answer preschooler's prayers, right?
