Hi everyone!

Good to see so many visa approvals and interviews scheduled since the last time I was here.

Thought I's share a little story. The embassy in Russia finally got around to re-scheduling our interview on Monday Oct.2, and set the date for Dec. 6. I had, that same day, posted the I-134 and NOA2 notice to her at work via regular airmail, not knowing she had gotten her interview re-scheduled. On Oct. 4, my fiance sent me an email saying she had been successful in pushing the interview date up to Monday, October, 16. (She works for the US consulate in St. Petersburg and pulled some strings).

Now I'm kicking myself when I hear this becuase our fates are in the hands of the Post. She needs to leave for Moscow Thursday afternoon, October, 12, in order to get to Moscow to do her doctor's clearance the business day before the interview. According to USPS, the docs are supposed to arrive between Monday and Wednesday (Oct.9-Oct.11). Monday, nothing. Tuesday, zip. Wednesday, zero.

Now we're having phone conversations at 3 am Thursday and I'm sending her fax copies of the packet and she's calling Moscow figuring out ways she can dance her way around not having the originals and in general just ramping up the stress in an already super stressful period in a process that started in March.

When I woke up today, I got an email saying she finally got the docs, about an hour after I spoke with her and two hours before she had to leave work to catch her train!

I can't really describe how much better I feel right now, which I'm sure will be nothing compared to what I'll feel next week if she gets the visa!!! :)

Best Wishes for a successful interview! I feel your pain - I had to do some last minute faxing and fedexing just in case, but everything turned out OK in the end. B)

Coincidentally our interview was also scheduled for December 6th. Since we will be in Moscow November 11th I respectfully asked for consideration to hold the interview then. I recieved this curt response:

"Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate your inquiry. There are no vacancies available before December 6, 2006. We apologize for inconvenience.

Sincerely,
