Good Morning Everyone :)

Just now I called DOS to check on my husbands status on AP , in which she told me to give them time to

review the e mail I had sent them. Giving all his siblings names and b-day's , and if I don't hear from them

by next week , to call again. And for those of you that might be wondering why they are asking for siblings names.

I ask the lady , and the reason she gave me , was they are checking as how many brother's and sister's he has in

the states. So ... If that is case , he should have no problem , as he has none.

Anyway ... Just thought I would share that bit of info.

ALLAH HAFIZ

There is an update to my case visa has been printed(not sure of the date) and this is now confirmed that the procedure for getting the passport back with the visa has changed as it has happened to Hopeful786 as well.

Once the Embassy prints the visa the passport is sent to the Department of State in the US, they go through it one last time and then forwards it back to the Embassy - only after this the embassy hands over the passport to Amex for delivery to Applicant.

Does anyone know what happened to prncess23. I've been looking at the AP list , and have noticed he had an

interview 5/4/09. I've also check out the profile, and doesn't have anything on the outcome of his interview.

Feisal bhai. Thank you so much for your well wishes. I really appreciate it. I am sorry that I am a little emotional. It has been such a long time for me to be without my husband, and the idea of having the baby without him being able to see her first moments of life makes me sad. But, Allah know's what's best for us. So, that's all I can consider. And, if he hasn't gotten the call for his visa by the time I am recovered from my surgery and the baby is healthy and strong enough, i will go back to Pakistan to be with him. I can't be without him. I know that I have everything for the baby here, everything is ready... but I need my husband and my daughter needs her father. So.. I just wanted to thank you so much for the kind words.

Hopeful... Congrats on our man receiving his visa! I have been waiting daily to find out whats happening with it. You both are a great inspiration for me, you and Feisal bhai. I worry all the time that there will be a problem with my case because of me getting my divorce just a short time before I married Zaheer. But the Dept Of State told me that shouldn't matter, and also, the US Embassy in Islamabad obviously didn't have a problem with it because when I applied for a new passport with Zaheer's last name on it instead of my previous name they gave it to me, no questions asked. So.. whenever I see that its taking sooooo long for this AP, I just think about your cases and realize that all was well and good with yours as well, but it just took time. So.. I let you both be my hope. thanks for being there for me when I was worried as well, both of you. Good luck to you both and have a safe Kashmir Day. Allah Hafiz.

Salam everyone- I just called DOS and they told me that the visa is in the final processing- how long does that usually take? Thanks for your responses!!

Congratulations qhayder :thumbs:

Sorry , I myself don't have the answer. Thou ... I do have a question & a suggestion.

First , what is the final process ? And did you have to supple siblings names & b-day's.

I'm wondering if this is random , or if everyone has to do it.

As for my suggestions , TO ALL of us, when calling and they tell us for example (visa in final

process) ask what is final process , and approximately how long it will take, It's our right to ask.

Anyhow ... Again congrats , and my prayers are with ALL of us. (F)
