Just dropping by to say Hi to everyone.

We are just waiting now for my visa to arrive. Hopefully, we will get it within 2 weeks.

Me and my fiance had a challenging week at the embassy(they lost our I-134, etc.) and I already posted my experience at the Philippines forum.

I hope everyone is doing great.

Don't worry you'll get your visa soon!

Got my "letter" from the Embassy today (the Seoul embassy sends out an e-mail) I really want to schedule my appointment, but I am waiting for my South African police report and I dont want to trust that they will send it in the 21/28 days that they say it takes.

The checklist that the embassy send me does not include many of the things that other places say I should bring with to my interview. Non of the following: NOA1, RFE, NOA2, NVC letter, Copy of I-129 Package, New letters affirming desire to marry, Proof of ongoing relationship. I am planning on still taking them, butI am curious if they will want them. IF they need them I am going to be very happy I did some research, not only followed the embassy instuctions.

Good luck with the paperwork for everyone else too

For some embassy's the way to schedule the appointment or re-schedule an appointment is on-line and fairly easy to change. I that is the case, you might want to schedle it, just give a little extra time for your police report. If it doesnt come, then push back the appointment a little. Depends if your in a hurry or not. Good luck to you, I am sure all will go well.

Akiko,

Once you get your NOA2, I hope your interview goes faster than ours. We got NOA2 in Dec, Tokyo Embassy received in January and we are still waiting for them to approve us to interview.

Hi all

I haven't been on this thread for a long while, since we got to NVC. We're still stuck at NVC, so I have been hanging out mostly on the "Stuck in AP at NVC" thread. It feels like after-school detention. We've been stuck 43 days so far, hoping to get released finally in about a week. That seems to be the average waiting time for Administrative Processing. No rhyme or reason, no explanations for who gets picked on. Anyway, we should be rejoining the more upbeat discussions of scheduling embassy interviews etc. shortly.

Congrats to all who have moved along and gotten interviews, approvals, and visas.

And good luck to those who still have a distance to go. (Akiko - I really feel for you)

As I am waiting for the result of the culture, I am happy that my doctor already advised me that I can put weight on my left foot. I can start practice walking without the crutches. Well, it's somewhat okay that my interview was canceled this march because it will took another 2 weeks for me, to be able to walk better without the crutches. Then, I will have enough time to prepare here some small things for my wedding. I am thinking of buying my gown here as well as wedding souvenirs.

God Bless Everybody! Keep praying!

May our journey will come to end soon.... Congratulations to those who have their visa! :thumbs:

Hi all,

Hey Tatiana has her interview the 9th of April and I need to know if I can go into the building in Moscow. I know I cannot attend the actual interview, but can I go into the building and wait with her until they call her. I have done my homework and only found one person who said I cannot go in. I just need a second opinion:)

Thanks

Timothy and Tatiana :whistle:
