that is what happened to me. dhl does not show shipment for delhi on the 16th, only 3 packages were sent. i am choosing not to rely on dhl since i have spoken with other people who have already had their interviews, and the same thing happened to them. yet, their embassies had the documents.

Hi everyone! My hubby and I are now at his parents' house in Finland-week #2 of our vacation! It's beautiful and snowy here! Every once in awhile we pull his passport out to stare at his visa...ahhh...we had a great week #1 in Italy!

Hope all is well! It's too hard right now to catch up on VJ since I haven't been on. Merry Christmas!

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!

i called, but by the evening we both had the email. then i kept calling everyday until the operator told me that our case was sent, and to contact the embassy for further questions. the AVR was also updated the day i spoke with the operator. guess i was just too anxious to wait for the email or avr :blush:

Oh!!! I didn't know!! Man, I haven't called the AVR since I talked to an OP!! Wow I have got to start calling them again!!! :thumbs::thumbs::star:

Oh!!! I didn't know!! Man, I haven't called the AVR since I talked to an OP!! Wow I have got to start calling them again!!! :thumbs::thumbs::star:

Twas the night before Christmas

Here on the VJ

we wait for approvals

Send evidence and Pray

With our family and spouses

far away in thier beds

with dreams of America

fresh in their heads

All of a sudden

there arose such a chatter

I called NVC, and the Consulate

to see what was the matter

An RFE? Your joking?

But I did everything right!

Administrative Processing?

Are they doing this for Spite?

So off to the Post office

I flew in a flash

making copies of documents

and shelling out more cash

So we wait for our interviews

with lbs of proof in our hands

We fill out more paperwork

and jump at every command

So this Christmas we hope

with out loved ones to unite

To speedy completions

so we can kiss our family goodnight

Heres hope for everyone to have a speedy Visa Journey!!!

10/14/2000 - Met Aboard a Cruise ship

06/14/2003 - Married Savona Italy

I-130

03/21/2009 - I-130 Mailed to Chicago lockbox

11-30-09: GOT GREEN CARD in mail!!!!!!

Citizenship Process;
