STUCK @ NVC for AP

Well.....my girl is doing her medical right now even though we are still at the NVC. Best to get something else out of the way with the luck we've had so far. Most of her friends have already scheduled their interviews and some even already passed them while we still wait.

Wait..you can do medical ahead of time? I thought you have to have the USEM approve you for that?

I was told that you can do the medical with just having the NVC case number. The only problem with having it done too far in advance is that it still needs to be valid when filing for AOS when that comes around, or you get to do it/pay for it all over again.

Ya, i know, very odd indeed, but well, more power to him! lol

Not odd at all and common in the Philippines. You just need a copy of the NOA2 and letter from the NVC with case number to show the guard. And it worked out just great because we are finally out of AP as of Sept. 8th. :dance:

You could try calling the number above and asking for a Tier II representative, according to this. Maybe tier II would be able to tell you something.

you can try to call but

probibly the only real answer you will get is to contact your congressman or better your senator and fill out the release form so they can inqure through their liason to find out the reason it was sent back. be very specific on what you want them to ask and include your question as to what the processing time will be. Good luck to you

Uhh, it's been busy here since my last post. I hope there are not too many people stuck, or that, at least, they're getting out a lot faster than we did back in the day.

We got married on Aug 28th and I think one of these days we'll be starting to work on the AOS. More paperwork, meh! Everything else has been fin've been nicely adjusting to life in the US, even though it seems really different than what I'm used to. My family left 10-ish days ago.
