Sorry to hear how she treated you, I guess sum people forget their roots, and feel working for the embassy sum how makes them better than others. As for the contact #, the number that was given to my husband is .... 051-208-2700. Is this correct, and also my husband interview was the 7Th of this month. Do you think it's to soon to call ?

I dont think its too soon. We started calling the embassy after 2 weeks. So.. it doesn't hurt. good luck.

will they send me an email or letter or do i have to call them. And what are the next steps for Pakistan. My wife is in Karachi so she will need to get medical done before the interview.

You have to call NVC and find out your interview date, I believe they will email you as well. In the email they will tell you the steps for getting the medical done which you will need before the interview yes.

will they send me an email or letter or do i have to call them. And what are the next steps for Pakistan. My wife is in Karachi so she will need to get medical done before the interview.

If they have your email in their system they will send you an appointment letter through the email. You might also get a hard copy of appointment letter in mail from NVC.

If you have had a lawyer, they will email you the appointment letter and will mail the hard copy of the letter to the lawyer.

When they have your emails in their system, they usually send you email the same day they type that letter. For us I got all the updates from NVC thru emails. They sent us both (me and my husband) appointment letter through emails and my lawyer got the hard copy for it after i got the email. And they took around two weeks to schedule the appointment for us.

NVC schedules interviews during the first two weeks of each month. and then they send out the appointment letters. Im assuming they will schedule your interview in the beginning of Feb and your interview date should be somewhere around March. Inshallah. So expect your appointment letter during first two weeks of Feb.

Also dunt worry about the next step. In the appointment letter they will explain the documents you need to present at the interview.

This is the link they send you in the letter, from where you can get all the specific instructions on everything step by step. Also this link contains information about the medical centers you can get your medical exam done from. Dunt go for medical before you get the appt letter, since they need to see your appointment letter as a proof for the medical examination.

here's the link

Hope that helps. :)

Faris Ali Gillani was born on Sunday, January 24th 2010 at 11:46am!!! The doctors decided to induce me when they saw that my placenta was looking too aged. All in all the first part of labor was kind of miserable cause it was taking so long and I wasn't dilating well, but it simply felt like menstrual cramps so the pain wasn't so bad. But it sped up out of nowhere going from 1cm to 9cm's in half an hour and exactly an hour afterwards my beautiful baby boy was born!!!

:D....g2g now though. Will be logging on next whenever I get a breathing moment to do so...lol.

p.s.

hshah08....I hope you don't mind taking on the responsibility for the list for a few weeks....? I will do my very best to get back on as much and update though...i promise. But I can't deny it might still be a while till I'm completely back though...sorry :(
