Very happy for all of you :dance::dance::dance:

Don't judge life by one different season. Perserve through the difficult patches and better time are sure to come in time. Always remember that:

(1) Kindness keeps you sweet.

(2) Trials keeps you strong.

(3) Failures keeps us humble.

(4) Success keeps you growing.

ONLY GOD KEEPS US GOING

Note:

Please fill out I-130, wait 6 months for approval, then 3 more months for an interview. (Unless of course we've bombed your country into the stone age, then you qualify for expedited processing.)

It looks like it is mostly Dec. completed cases that got interviews scheduled? Anyone that got the case completed in Jan. got an interview date yet?

It just depends on the Embassy, like I have been waiting since October so if an embassy was moving quickly a january person may get a date.

I LOVE MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!

hello everybody

What is your embassy--- it is different through out the world- or it can be as I have read here... I think they know during your first interview if you are getting the visa or no... if they have extra questions tho, they can request you to return.. I'm sure it will be fine!-- Good luch- that's right around the corner!

I have K3 interview on 2-2-09

and CR1 interview on 2-19-09

hoping my wife will interview for CR1 on 2-2-09

I'm pretty sure the rule is if there is an immigrant visa available (CR-1), then they have to interview for that.
