Hello all,

I know some of you don't visit the other forums much, and I wanted to write a quick note of thanks to all of you who lent me support and advice thus far in our visa journey. Our NOA2 arrived the other day, so Vika and I are one step closer.

Seriously guys, there are several of us within a few hour drive from each other. Once summer/spring rolls around we should definitely have shashliki in the park somewhere. It would be cool to meet all of you in person.

More to follow......

Timing sounds good. Viktoria has now decided that she needs a few weeks after our interview to wrap things up in Ukraine. I think that will put her ETA some time in February.

Finally I was able to schedule a January interview in Kiev. I was told that consular will be closed the entire week of Orthodox Christmas, so the 12th was the first day available. I wonder if the consular section in Moscow will be closed that week too.

Congratulations! Dang dude, that's only a few days over a month away! Woot!

Moscow will probably be closed also, because they'll likely have to let their RU employees off.
