Well that sounds vvery good at least you know your file is on top of the pile :):):)

Just a quick not regarding DOS and the information we get from them I called today just to see what they said Talked to Sara again I was told the last entry was on July 8 requesting.......police, medical, DS230 and 2 passport photos Okay that is well and good. The funny thing is the request on hard copy was mailed from DOS/Counsular services/Washington DC. My husband has an email confirming his interview date from the Embassy in Ukraine. This information is not noted at DOS My point is the Embassy has not updated the info in the computer so there might be good things happening with everyones case and nothing has been entered into the system. The last thing Sara said was once they receive the police, medical, DS230 and 2 photos the visa will be issued. how sweet of her to say that but the letters we have doesnt suggest anything like that we are only hoping.

She is so nice,,, the system is only as good as the info input by the consulates and they are very slow to input anything... I got a response from my congressional inquiry and it was a clerks generic AP reesponse.. not an actual CO... I guess we will wait and see what next week brings... not expecting anything from a call tomorrow but will try anyway...

I talked to Mr Marvelous the other day and he has been so nice to so many peoplehere but was very short with me.. he also said that he did not have access to see last update.. BS... we all know by now what they can and cant see...

hopefully it wont be too much longer for you two :thumbs:

this sara person sounds nice, i always get the rudest people. i got a woman yesterday and she was sweet but i didnt catch her name. she told me that my case looks like it almost may be complete but she has no guarantees. im sure she was just trying to be nice. and i completely agree with scott thuy.... i got mr. marvelous the first time i called.... yea he wasnt helpful or nice.... he told me that he couldnt see updates either....lies upon lies. lol. anywayz.... thanks for the input about dos and the embassy's. its frustrating to know that they cant even keep everything updated the same. but ur almost there so stay hopeful and keep us informed on how everything goes.... :star:

AP is very aggrivating and has taken forever for some of us. considering she is a female i dont think you will be waiting that long.... thats from wat i hear... just hang in there and read other posts to see wat the average for females are. most important, just be patient...

I will keep you guys informed and thanks for the encouragement. It seems like the past 2 years was a breeze compared to the next 3 weeks......now that I know all that can and will go wrong i keep wondering what will happen next it seems like our case is one of the first for all the delays. So Im sure if they have come up with a new procedure it will happen to us.

Hello Everyone,

My Wife had her interview on May 7th, 2010 at Islamabad, Pakistan

At the end of the interview she received a “green” color paper stating that temporarily refused for administrative processing.

I have been calling Dept. of State (DOS) almost every single day and every time I called they said, the case Is still under administrative processed.

So today I called again and they said that “AP” has been completed….WOW!!!!..When I heard that my hears could not believe this so I had the operator over the phone check with someone else and they both confirmed that “AP” is complete and they said “congratulations” and they said don’t get too excited and don’t buy the tickets yet until your wife has received the visa in her hand…

So does this mean that her “AP” is over and now she will be issued the visa??? My Wife was in “AP” since May 7th, 2010 ….I’m very happy but also a bit concerned because I want to know that once the “AP” is complete like they say it is, what happens next?...will they issue the visa now?....

I must say that I called DOS (Dept. of State) almost every single day since May 7th, 2010 and every single time I would call they would say, “It’s still under administrative processing” and when she said, “It’s completed”, OMG (OH MY GOD) I swear my ears couldn’t believe this….

I would appreciate if someone can give me her insight on what does this mean and what happens next?

Thanks again!
