Feisal - I am in Houston at the moment n my husband is in karachi...so i couldn't have seen u there but my husband was there very early too ..he was at the bus stop at around 6 something...so u might've been there i'll ask him! I have told him abt u that i think ur from karachi and u would be there...neways i m just prayin that he n everyone gets out of this mess! Also, i think they 101% put those ppl on AP who travels alot...for example my husband was livin in london before, u travel to uae alot, etc. and

Oh yeah the CO told my husband that on average it takes 3 MONTHS for AP to sort out!

L179 - My husband was told to call embassy for further inquiries...so do we call DOS or embassy? n we should def meet up once u r here in Texas...

u, feisal, haquetalha, and may be waiting4 approval... :)

P.S Ramadan Mubarak to u all!!!

So I had sent an inquiry to embassy a few weeks ago regarding my husband's AP but no one replied.. I sent an email on Friday and this is what I got

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please wait and applicant will receive call or call letter from our office very soon.

Note: If the address or phone numbers of the applicant or petitioner have changed since the visa interview, please inform us. Please always mention your case number the subject line of your email.. Islamabad case numbers usually start with the letters ISL followed by 10 digits. (Example: ISL2009800019).

Regards,

American Embassy

Immigrant Visa Unit

Islamabad, Pakistan

Did anyone else receive such an email? How soon is soon?!?!

I am counting days :(
