Please add me, JamaicanMeCrazy. My case has been completed since June 24, 2008. Awaiting CR-1/K-3 interview for Kingston, Jamaica!! What's this for anyway?

I have added your info on the spreadsheet. This is just to keep track for those who have their case complete and to check when they are scheduled for interviews according to their embassies. It can also serve as a timeline for how fast or long the embassies make appointments. :star:

:angry::angry: I still did not receive the interview letter. I don't know why. I live in the United States and don't know how letters from NVC always seem to arrive on the second week. :crying::crying: When I called NVC , they said that it was mailed out 9/15/08 and should be in the mail any day :wacko: If I don't get a letter tomorrow, I will call and request it by email or something. For sure my husband has not received it and will probably receive it during the interview itself. I am mailing it to him once I receive it. NVC rep told me to fax it to him in order for him to get an medical exam. Good luck everyone. :star:
