Well this is the place to be...there are others here in the same boat, and some who have been hanging around for ages..and are still hanging around :thumbs:

It sucks, I agree..but you aren't on your own..

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

Congratulations!

Maybe this means 10 more days for us (they received our case on the 18th), or maybe not?

Where does one buy patience?

Hey cdneh...

Im sorry i have to inform you that i wasnt able to beat your record...you are still on top...but hey cdneh, i tried...it just didnt work...

Today i called NVC and a nice lady there announced me that i got out of NVC and hopefully they will send my package to Romania on monday...Then i called again just to be sure and the second lady told me that im under AP and then i asked her to check again since this second call was just for getting the confirmation of the first call. Then she said, oo yeah, but we will not be able to send it today... Still a good news...

Wow all these weeks seemed long, but it was good having all of you encouraging each other...

So, cdneh... i stopped at 6 weeks and 5 days...

blessings,

Nate

It is a bit of a horrible record...and I wouldn't want anybody to be unfortunate enough to better it :no:

I'll still check back...I want to see all of us get on with it :thumbs:

Guys? what if AP goes over the expiration date of the approval? (for k3) just a thought

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

Mine left NVC on the 12th January and as of today had still not been received by the embassy according to DoS, I've been checking a lot of time lines and it can often take a couple of weeks to show up at the embassy and then up to another couple of weeks for them to get the paperwork out to you. Some embassies are more receptive to early contact than others so you might want to check your regional forum to see what experiences people have had.
