Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

HUH????

so I called DOS, Raquel tells me that my case is at the embassy level for review, that a clearance request was sent on 1-6-06 and a response was sent back on 1-6-06 --- HUH???? ---- and that's all she knew... nothing else requested from ISL... is it possible that anything happens that quickly w/ immigration????

so I called back - had a few questions I didn't think to ask of Raquel - such as, does this mean all clear from DOS??? was it a name check??? something else?? I get this other lady - had maybe a philipino accent?? -- anyways... she puts me on hold... tells me she doesn't know where Raquel got that info cause she doesn't see anything... all she sees is that it's at ISL for review... that she doesn't know what info was sent out in the cable (if any sent out at all) - could say all clear, could ask for more checks....

HUH???? :huh: I don't know what to make of this... I think I just need to stop calling DOS - this is just contributing to my worry and confusion..... :( Tawakal to Allah - I just have to trust in Him.

Cindy, I talked to Ishteaq earlier and he said to tell you both that he is excited and congratulations on finally getting that visa in hand.

Shon, I see the CR1 has left the building. Today looks like a lot of good news. I am very happy for you and you should be at the embassy in one week.

Omid, I only call DOS once a week. You will be told different things from different persons and it will drive you crazy if you are not careful. I know I am emailing the embassy and Ishteaq will call them on Monday to see if we have any updates on our case. DOS only shows he interviewed on Dec 12th, cable sent to them on Dec 13th saying we are on AP. So hang tight and hopefully you will have good news soon too.

Laney lets hope that next week you have news of come back to Islamabad and pick up your shiny new visa.

As for everyone else I am praying for all those on this board and hope that we are all reunited with our loved ones soon. Amen.

My good news today was the PC is going to be fixed and back home tomorrow, inshallah.

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.

Omid...

once the case < hard copy leaves for ISL > they give you the interview.

in our case I hope they- finish the last bit of whatever required papers are and issue the dayum CR1. we have done all the security stuff and all the paper work. I hope by this time next month I will be kissing my sweet husband on the lips in public!!!!

Omid,

your case has been sent back to ISL < cable >.

since no more security checks are ordered wait for 1 month roughly

and hopefully visa in hand. you are at the same point cindy was.
