Where are we up to with all the plans ??

We are waiting for our papers to show up at the NVC. Hard copy of NOA2 arrived no problem but nothing from the NVC...I'm starting to get worried again.

Did it take a while for you guys to find your cases there? It has been about a week for us and nothing.

If you ring the NVC press 1 then 5 to speak to a live operator as they don't put the K1s on the automated system

Well, her interview took place earlier today and our Visa Application was approved! :dance: She was very nervous and interview wasn't a piece of cake, but she made it through it OK. We are really looking forward to getting a passport with visa in it and getting her on the plane ASAP! :yes:

Believe it or not, she is still not 100% sure that we cleared all the hurdles because of a crazy story she was a witness to. When she was paying for DHL delivery before the interview, there was a woman in front of her in the line who was receiving her passport from the Embassy. Woman didn't speak or read English, so she asked one of the DHL people what the stamp in the passport said and the guy told her that she was denied a visa with no explanation given. The woman told everybody that it couldn't be true because she was told at the interview that her visa was approved. :wacko: I find it really hard to believe, but I don't know the type of visa that woman applied for nor was I there at the time of the incident, so I can't really comment on it one way or another. :wow: Any thoughts? :huh:
