For y'all who've gotten appointments already: did NVC send you something with this on it, or did you just find out by phone? The reason I ask is that for Lima, my wife needs an appointment letter to show before they will let her schedule a medical appointment. So, I need to know if NVC will be getting me said letter, of if I will need to coordinate with the consulate in Lima. As always, TIA.

Mark :)

Mark, I actually get to help you!!!! We got our appt. letter via email last Friday, a few hours after the operator told me about our interview date. The appt. letter give you info regarding the interview.

wohoooooo! sign in failed!!! david's ur up next. were on the same timeline!!! my o my!!!!!

Congrats Dhel! Great news!

Coolness. Thanks Finn... So, later this week we will finally be able to schedule the medical appts... I wonder how much I will get to spend on vaccinations :)

Mark :)

I've got a lot of coolness going on right now where I am! It's now one degree so there's a heatwave apparently. Anyway, I don't know if you actually have to wait for your interview to be scheduled before you get that letter. Ours had the date and time of his interview...let's just hope they'll keep on scheduling! My Finn Man has been getting vaccinations already, because he couldn't find his records. It's definitely not cheap!!!!!

It was lovely and warm and sunny in London today! :lol:

Thanks Scot! Very sunnny in AK also...I just went for a 30 minute walk around an amazingly beautiful frozen lake, and it had warmed up to five degrees! It was great! It'll drop down to probably -15 or so tonight...but I won't be out walking!

Our timeline:

2/88: We met in Sydney, Australia at a youth hostel! He's Finnish, I'm American-both were in our early 20s at the time and fresh out of college (so couldn't afford to visit each other's countries after that!). We had a three-day romance, then went our separate ways. He actually was going to Sydney a week later, but decided at the last minute to cut his trip short in another country and go early. Wow.

1988-1998: Wrote "snail mail" letters/sent Xmas cards, but lived our separate lives. I married someone else, divorced in 2006...he lived with someone for years and then that ended.

10/08: Because of a series of random life events, I Googled my Finn Man and found him (but no link to his email, and the website his name was on was in Estonian so I couldn't even read it!). It took me two weeks to find a link to someone else, who forwarded my email to him (we were both single at the time thankfully!!!!). The email went to his spam folder but he happened to check it that day and responded back to me immediately! This was after 10 years of no contact and almost 21 years of not seeing each other after we first met.

11/08-5/09: We traveled back and forth to visit each other. Love at first (second?) sight!

7/09: Married in Helsinki, Finland...after meeting randomly 21 1/2 years ago and finding each other again!!!!!

8/13/09: I-130 sent!!!!!!!!!

Rest is on my timeline!
