Finally got our packet 3. It went to an address which Melannie moved out of 5 months ago. #^%$#$^%$ lawyers! Word of advice, NEVER hire one. When we are free from them, I'll certainly be posting a review of them here. The ones we hired are ineffectual, lazy, ignorant. I know we understand this process much better than our case officer, and she supposedly does K1's for a living.

Thankfully though, there is a good friend living in the old flat, so she called right away so we could get our packet, knowing how important it is. Without friends, Melannie and I would never have gotten anywhere. Thank God for good friends.

And hooray for packet 3!!!

Hooray that Melannie got her packet 3!

Heh, I consulted a lawyer friend of a friend and even he advised me to just save the money and do it myself

Now I'm just waiting for my fiance to get his....grrr...I emailed the consulate last night (again, I emailed them 2 weeks ago)

our Case seems to still be with NVC

They're saying standard 2-4 weeks for processing...guess we're not the lucky ones to get shipped out in record time...

Marmite Lovers, did they receive yours yet?

And congrats to Melannie!

I know how it feels hannah. Long story but when andrewcame in august I had to find a new place to live the second to last day before he left! we were gunna go to london and have a look around with his parents that were also over but didnt have much time to fit it in as we were busy moving. And i was only moving becuase the person i rented from was away and his mother in law (who doesnt even live in the area nd has nothing to do with the house) came over and suddenly took over the whole house and was bein so so nasty!! Was a complete stress and she ruined the end of a great holiday

I dont think you will have long to wait at all. if u look at my timeline you will see how quick its travelled through since arriving in the UK!! Its crazy. AND i received package 4 today Didnt think id get it as i never recieved package 3 and had to put one together myslef. Boy am i glad i did that otherwise we'd still be waiting for package 3. My guess is it got lost......

ok question whats dos? i see it in your timeline?

is there a way online i can check if the embassy has our packet yet? because i dont want Vito to do do too much till hes finished being rested after what he wnet through before his 10 hour flight, yesterday and i dont fancy racking up a phone bill, to the states to phone the nvc, to see if they have sent it on yet? can i just put my ldn number in somewhere and see if it registers?

DOS is the NVC

I dont think you can check it online. I'm pretty sure not. And if you call, I dont even think you can use the automated option, not for K-1's. The only way to check is to talk to a live person.

Wa-hooo!! We got approved!! It feels so good to be on the bandwagon. How long has everyone been waiting before calling NVC? Have a great weekend!!

Congrats!

I waited about 3-4 days and when I called, they had it already

Great, thanks Stardragon, I hope ours arrives that quick. My mom and sister are coming down here to meet my fiance and see El Salvador (we live down here together) and we´re all going on vacation this week, so hopefully when I call NVC in about 10 days, it´ll already have left for San Salvador!! I can hope, right? We better get crackin on the packet 3 paperwork, we can download it directly from the embassy, and send it in as soon as they receive our petition from NVC, as far as I understand.

Thanks for asking. No not yet.

I've waited patiently for this long....a while longer won't kill me.

####### I just realised John beat me to annoucing it.
