Argh. This whole waiting game is making me depressed.

My fiancée's parents want to send out the invitations now, and I'm faced with either telling them to go ahead or telling them to wait... they're convinced, however, that I'll have the interview in time and that we're just making a big deal out of nothing. I think they have much more faith in the American government than I do.

DoS won't tell me anything now other than "no interview date set". They refuse to give estimates.

That's a tough one... USCIS clearly tells us NOT to make any wedding/moving plans until we have the visa in hand.... you never know what type of delays or issues can come up at the interview. Not trying to worry you, but that's why I didn't plan the wedding ahead of time... the fear of sending out invites and then being rejected at the interview or having a late interview just made me bag the whole thing. Can you at least wait until you have the date before sending out the invites?

Not really, since we have about 250 invitees, many (many) of whom will have to travel to get to the wedding, and we don't want the invitations lost among the Christmas cards. But we're likely going to risk doing a non-legal ceremony if they don't have the interview date by January. I figure as long as USCIS doesn't hear about it, we'll be fine, and we'll do a smaller legal one later.

I just saw that they had a date of when Montreal sent out packet 3. It looks like it took 3 business days after the package from NVC got to Montreal, so I was just curious because everyone else says it takes 5 business days.

Yeah i'm sure, they are not considered an import like other 'goods' :lol:

cats, then are not possession, but the fall short of children, both of which have to be declared...

my cats ARE like my kids, i'll miss them

:luv:

I'm holding back calling DoS today, since someone else here is calling. Bogartnoir or Danu I think?

Waiting patiently.. who knows how I'll be waiting 5 minutes from now, though.

Maybe I should be calling DoS too to see if mine's logged.

Do I have to be the one who called DoS or can my fiance?

He has Vonage and I'd have to use my cell which would cost me alot of money.
