Hello. I just cant virtually snob your post :) anyway, i just looked at your time line and i guess you are sticking through just this only last bit...i thought that was nice... my petition was filed January 2008 and have been waiting for 9 months to be interviewed at the USEM due to medical innuendo about culturing my sputum at the USEC..its been dangling since August...your petition was a few months later than mine but look at you now, just waiting for the visa delivery...and i thought that was fast...dont be discouraged..dont be dismayed.... :)

;) Not dismayed... still waiting. Just letting off some steam. Its distressful when they give you a specific deadline and they dont follow thru. I was told by NSO and USEM DV takes 1-4 weeks. Its been 4 weeks in NSO and no progress. And theres no way to follow up your DV in NSO now. If it takes more than a month, they should have said so.

Not nearly as fast hehe. I think what helped was that now we can schedule our own interview.

Hmmm... I wonder how long it takes to culture a sputum sample? I hope your sample turns up negative and get your interview schedule. As i recall, people from SLMEC lacks customer service (my experience).... they just dont tell you anything... they just tell you go here and there. Im utterly clueless... wandering in the clinic... scared they might find something thats worth poking on.

Having to wait for anything which you clearly deserve (at least i think so) is inhumane. The whole process is stressful. Oh well, we cant complain. We did subject ourselves to such torture hahaha. I just know he is worth it and im smiling again like a chesire cat.

I got CENOMAR last year.(October 2007) One for me and one for my ex- ONLY ONE MARRIAGE LISTED

After my annulment was granted, I checked my CENOMAR- NO MARRIAGE Listed

Before my interview, I got my CENOMAR- 2 marriages listed with the same person

Just last week, I got CENOMAR for me and my ex- ONLY ONE MARRIAGE listed again.

ANO BA TALAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DV takes forever. NSO is working in a snail's pace. And they boast, everything can be pulled up electronically. Like hell they can!

and NSO are unfair to us. look some paid late before us yet they are done with this hell. they shouldnt called there paper a SECPA paper if they just want to check it once more again... security papers means the paper doc was real and not fake , look like they just want other income from us. and

they should give a a refund when our DV turn accurate. right? since it means we are giving them the right docs and then they are asking us to pay 700 for other same $hit. they should choice people who they will asking for DV, people thats are questionable. oh boy this is really not just a torture for us but a bankrupcy.

to NSO: we fee your service hope u give us fair service too and faster one since those paper is just a button print only. that is so easy to do, please dont let us wait this long.
