OMG!

I don't beleive it.

We got a touch by VSC. :blink:

Ruby, I don't know how you've been able to put up with waiting since 27 Feb, but I'm not sure I'll be able to do half as well if they do that to us too. :clock:

Hey!!!! I am soooo happy for you !!!!! That I can imagine is a great feeling as you know they are looking at it!!! I bet you have it very soon. :dance: It has made me feel more optimistic aswell so thanks for that :thumbs: M x

Thanks M, I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of us who are still waiting. Since we'll be in the same city once all this red tape BS is finished, maybe the four of us should hoist a couple some where.

Absolutely!!!! I will look forward to that :yes: I am not going to be able to check my email after tomorrow morning until Friday night, my son is passing out of the Army on Friday ( Boot camp I believe you say? ) so traveling to Cambridge for a couple of days.... I am hoping to return to some good news on VSC for all those patiently waiting!!!! :innocent:

I've had visions of our app falling behind a file cabinet or desk or something for a while now. Now that I know they haven't misplaced it (yet) I only have to worry about the other nightmare - the one about RFEs.

remember that everything will work itself out. i am really hoping your touch turns into an NOA2 very very soon. : )

I had been a member of a website dedicated to Western/Thai relationships. We would share humorous stories, provide insight into the cultures, give each other support (especially the long distance relationships), etc. A member there mentioned Visa Journey to help us along the process. It's been the biggest blessing of the entire process!

Hello my fellow october filers just want to share my good news...i just had my k1 visa interview earlier and i passed...now i just have to wait 1-2 weeks for visa delivery. :dance:

Hi..janice here...i checked your timeline...and i didnt see entries on packet three thing...I got approved in march 4 this year..it left NVC in March 9...do i have to call embassy yet to set for an interview or should i wait first for the packet three toa rrive before calling to set an appointment? thank you.

Don't wait for any packet to arrive coz it might not arrive at all....yesterday march 11 was my embassy interview and when i got home i saw the DHL letter from us embassy manila telling me to schedule my interview and go for my medical. The letter was dated march 5 w/ usem letterhead, it was with dhl march 10 and delivered march 11.
