July 2009 Filers

[Batta 6]

Hello folks,

I hope you are all doing great. I am sorry for not being able to be here most of time.

The hubby went to Arizona today and left me all alone freezing in Chicago...but will look at the bright side. Cause I will be heading there for thanksgiving

ON Saturday afternoon we received an email from Montreal indicating we need to submit proof of his current status in Canada and then they will start requesting our file from Baghdad. Since they did not indicate what the required proof is, I had to Google it. I found some stuff, and we sent his landing card, citizenship and passport copied via email.

Now it is been since Sunday when we sent it out, yet no response from them I don't know why they are so slow on answering email

For the love of God, they don't even take phone calls. I just want an answer if they are ok with document or not.

My energy is draining now. Need some recharge to boost my put down expectation?

Kitty,

Glad you are almost there. I wish I can be 20% down the road where you are

Batta = Mariam

It can take Montreal up to 5 business days to respond to an e-mail, so you have to be patient. I don't know if you have been on the Canada forum much, but there is a ton of info on the consulate in Montreal. They are A LOT slower in assigning interviews than many other countries, so plan on some waiting for the interview. There are people there who had their NOA2's in July and are just getting an interview this month.

Hi everyone. I've been away for sometimes now since my fiancee is visiting from Czech Republic. We're spending most of the time going around museums and exhibitions here in DC.

I hope things are getting better for everyone here.

oldahmed: Ahmed and Alena.

I don't feel comfortable displaying my first name on this forum. Well I never do it on any forum.

It is no secret though. It's just that I don't want it to appear when my first name is googled.

I am just a mushroom.

Good morning family!

Thanks to all keeping their fingers crossed for me!

Hang in there Mariam, you'll get there too eventually. At least you've got to see him.

Colleen, your avatar picture is awsome! My hubbie looks great in uniform too!

Mushroom is good for me too.

Mariam I hope that soon everything will be alright.. We just need to be patient! Sometimes you lose on the one side, and get on the other side.. But the most important thing is that the final result is the best for us!

Mariam and Ahmed.. Ooohhh you are so lucky that you can spend a time with your love! I havent seen Faruk for (you can see below )

OHhhhh ILEANA.. TOMORROW IS YOUR INTERVIEW (am I right.. I havent checked your timeline.. I trying to remember !

Our case left NVC today yayaya.. And it is on its way to the Bosnia with God`s help and bless!

So now it is time for me to start with preparing a documents that I need (I didnt want to do it before.. step by step.. I dont like to do things before

I am hoping that you are all fine"! Be careful, and dont get H1N1 , and have a nice weekend!

Take care,

Azra & Faruk

Today just been a day from hell.. at work

I wish I can quit at this point and sit at home.. Yes I can quit.. but then I look at the future and thing I will have to support us while he wait for his papers.

Montreal still did not answer.. and now it is close to 8 PM and I am about to burst in tears cause I don't know what else I can do.

Should I call DOS and complain? will that help?

How can I found out if Montreal requested our file to transfer from Baghdad.

I wish I can find a person working in Montreal that can help..

Lord.. please I pray you make things goes in order..

[EasternDE 35]

Work is hell for me too...

I work in retail, and my monkey too (kinda..). I'm not sure it's a bad thing we don't spend the holidays together, it's the busiest time for both of us.

I prefer we save our little pennies and we go on a nice honeymoon.

Batta, I would let 4 or 5 business days before I get worried I get no answer. Montreal is one of the busiest embassies (if not the busiest).

Everything will be fine, it probably will take longer than expected but I'm sure it will be fine.

I've got my packet 3 today!!! Earlier than I expected it!

Can you believe I spent like 4 hours to fill that DS-230 form....?

I'm wondering how people who are like 50 years old manage this. Well, I moved 17 times in my entire life so you can guess the mess...

I had to dive in my old paperwork, I hate that...

But it's done now, and I'll send it tomorrow!

Ileana's interview is on the 19th!!! It will be our first. One week left.

(Ok, I confess, I checked their timeline )
