Hello there Ria, Im sorry to hear that ur on 4th week of waiting. Our DV was forwarded by Delbros to NSO on September 01, 2008 & was released to USEM on September 19, 2008 (Friday-3 weeks to be exact) per PJ usually the maximum DV was 3 weeks period if there is no probs with the docs. I don't really know what is really the policies & procedures of NSO/USEM seems they keeps changing it, so unreliable and unfair. I hope & pray they will release your dv soonest.

I know its supposed to be three weeks, that's what the Chief CO told us. But you know what, they only sent my documents last September 8 to NSO. Tama ba yun? I just called today and as usual, the answer was... "We still dont have your DV." Can you really rely on PJ? I called him but they said USEM ordered them not to divulge information anymore. Oh my Lord God! Give me more strength...

My husband's petition just got approved on the 18th of Sept. i called NVC and they said that it will take up to 2 wks to send his case to USEM. But he already has an MNL#. Should my husband go ahead and pay the DV fee even if USEM doesn't have the physical copy of our case. We plan for him to have his interview 2nd week of Nov. 6 weeks should be plenty of time for them to do the DV, right? what about the medical? can you just go whenever you want to schedule or is the USEM gonna give us a medical date?

Dont rely on this person,to give you any kind of truth weather your Document Verification is done and has been forwarded to the USEM!!!!!!!!!!!! I spoke with this gentleman at the NSO Monday of last week to find out if Bel's verification was done and sent to the embassy,he informed it was not,so i pleaded with him and the person who might actually be handling Bel's case and because of my Moms condition,which they already knew about,because of the expediated rush put on it by the embassy,to please with a christen heart to please try to have it done for friday the 19th,when next all results would be sent to the embassy!He informed me that he would personally involve himself in this matter! I called back to him that thursday afternoon phil time,and at that time he informed that Bel;s verification was done and to keep my fingers crossed that the NSO would release that friday!I called that friday afternoon phil time the next day,and Pjay informed me that Bel's results did in fact go back to the embassy and told me that they were received by a person named Emily!He three times said yes i am confirming this!!!It was to late to call the embassy after that to confirm that Bel's verification was receieved! So i spoke with Lorraine at the embassy today,to confirm that they have Bel's results,and to my big and unfortunte surprize they did not!She double checked the list from friday and confirmed that Bel was not on it!I told Lorraine that MR Pjay Sanchez three times confirmed for me that in fact Bel was on the list picked up by Emily,so Lorraine informed that she will ask this of Emily when she is back from the hospital seeing about a friend,and to call back after lunch.I called back after lunch,and talked to Grace,who knew of the circumstances of this problem already!Grace Politley told me that no Bel was defintuely not on fridays list,and how come i was told anything by someone at the NSO, and in fact that Mr Pjay Sanchez at the NSO is giving this info just to get rid of callers!I told Grace,my God im shocked that the NSO would allow an employee to outright lie in this manner,especially knowing the circumstances of our case(my Moms terminally ill)!!!!!!!to let a an employee of a wonderful and beautiful christen country,to permit that employee to outright lie,to people who are seeking the truth,is an abomination!!! I told Grace in the most polite and diplomatic way that i could muster,as employees of the USEM who actually are supposed to work for me and not me for them,that in fact because of these practices to be unchecked and allowed,that no one willing at the USEM,DELBROS and THE NSO to facilitate a truthful expediate rush on Bel's verification,causing Bel not to be here in time to meet my Mom and causing my Mom to pass away with even a partial saddness,I told Grace that I will send to Ambass:Keenney,The Director of the NSO,the CEO of Delbros and the head counsler of the immigrant visa unit Dr Lawerance a certified noterized copy of my Moms death certificate!I slightly apoligized to Grace,but only said in the end of our talk,hope sooner than later for Moms sake!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry: Im seeking the lord to touch hearts there for everyone!!!!!

There are alot of people here that know what you are going through because of this document verification policy USEM has implimented.

My wife is in fact is going through the same issue. It is a shame that the USEM put this policy in place without a proper procedure to make it efficient and timely. However, the best thing you can do right now is wait it out and trust in God. I don't think it was a good thing to poke around into the process and then tell the USEM what you did, if word got back to the CO who knows what they would do. Even though I am not happy with the incompentancy of the USEM I wouldn't want to give them any reason to put my wife's file in the corner and delay the process any longer than it will already take.

Hello guys, I just want to update our case: I asked my hubby to call usem today & spoke to Lorraine while i'm at the other line listening. Per Lorraine they received our DV last Friday same day they forwarded it to my CO and done with the review. Today our visa is for 'printing' per her most likely we will receive our visas on Friday or Monday (hopefully).

BTW, Lorraine was very nice & sweet while talking to my esposo and even exchange nice words to him and laughed LOL! To my co-pinay better ask hubby to call them instead of us. Good luck everyone. God bless.

Sorry to hear about your Mom and all this mess,I'm on my 7th week of waiting.I don't know what kind of verification they are doing for untill now they seem can't get result on my dv and for my 2 kids.Goodluck everyone

Chrislyn, how are you coping? Im having a hard time already. Im on my 4th week of waiting. I was told that the document verification is up to six weeks. I don't know what's going on. I think your husband should get the help of his congressman.

I dunno how i do that...hehe..Seriously,my husband is always there to make me smile when im fussing over this thing.Calling Senators or Congressman wont be any help i guess..This is all USEM darn rules.Our DV has been released to USEM 1 week ago acording to Beth from USEM ,when hubby called yest..Our interview were Aug 4th and only Aug 15 when USEM forwarded our DV request form to NSO then released to USEM Sept 16th (total of 4 weeks at NSO).So,we're hoping CO wont make it any difficult to make her decision coz as far as im concerned,all our documents were ok.I know this is all pain in the neck for everyne who waiting for visa packet.My 2 kids,are already missing their school.I know how you feel,coz i feel it too..We will be fine,in God's time..Our waiting will be paid off once we step off from the plane in the States and give daddy a big hug...Hehehe
