Hi Muslimqueen,

Did they kept your husband passport? they kept mine. Did you had to submit any thing? what they wanted from your husband

We are going crazy now, they just disturbed our life. I dont know what to do.

We had to submit a letter saying that I do not a have to file for taxes but they did not keep my husbands passport they said they would call him. Thats great news that they kept his passport.

The other regular posters on this thread that are still waiting are Bridget and Armani...I'm sure there are others that don't join in that often. I hope your husband gets his visa in time for you to spend his birthday together :)
