Aya and John,

How are you two? I hope all is well. The only thing left for us is for the Lagos Consulate to reply my fiancee's email for the date he chose to come and present the additional documents needed. Other than that Im hoping for the best for me, you, and other waiting for the issuance of our loved ones visa :innocent: . All the best.

I dont think she is ready, but she says she will be... the stress is causing her to make silly mistakes... she left 300usd in her desk at english class the other day. now thats gone.. I keep emphasizing that it is no big deal in the whole scheme of things... focus on the preparation and forget about the lost $... 7 days from now she will be waiting to get into the consulate... god willing she will be here in 17 days

Nwanyioma and YKJ, I feel for you ladies! We're in the same boat...

We haven't gotten a reply to our email this week yet (We sent it Saturday, and Cairo Consulate works Sunday) and haven't been able to talk to a representative from DOS, all the numbers are busy... I guess we just have to hang in there...

I have asked her every question I can find and she knows everything.. I am so surprised.. she knows more about me than my mother does.. :thumbs:

She says she is at her mothers house for the peace and quiet to prepare everything.. I think it was the right decision as she has everything spot on in order... the only possible issue is misunderstanding a question, so She will have a translator translate the questions just to be sure she understands the meanings... she will do the interview in english.. with the interpreter backup...

An update about our case:

John called DOS twice today.. He was told our case is now under AP both times... I don't know what to expect, don't know how long that AP will last, or when I'm going to be with him... :(
