And my husband, after a month, FINALLY got his letter of employment.

So I've made the jump from July filers to October NVC :) We got our hardcopy approval on Monday, but as it's acually dated 23rd September we're going to give NVC a call on Friday. We've had all our documents a while, the only exception being my police certificate, so I hope to send that off in the next day or two - it's already filled etc but I need someone to verify those damn photos and I don't know why but that's always so hard :unsure:

I'm hoping that we follow others' quick journey through this stage, but what I'm worried about is the three month wait at London for the interview. Three months doing nothing (well apart from the medical, and I'm realllllly looking forward to that :rolleyes:

Sounds like they pulled this Tony from the Burger King drive thru... "No I did not order a whopper with cheese, I ordered a chicken sandwich".... "Oh by the way, you sound just stupid enough, would you like to come work for NVC"??? Guess they look for the ones with a few sandwiches short in the picnic basket!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

how do you guys find out if the particular embassy is busy or not? It seems like other VJers have an idea about approximately how long it takes to schedule an interview with their embassy (eg. Canada, London), and I am absolutely lost about whether the US Hong Kong embassy is busy or not....any idea about how to find out about how long of a wait it will be from the NVC Case complet to an interview date assigned in Hong Kong Embassy? I haven't seen a lot of VJers filed for Hong Kong embassy yet....

Are you talking about the stupid photos for the UK police cert? My hubby lived in Ireland a few years ago. He had to send the photos to his parents, who had to go to his dentist to verify it was him, then send it back to him. He knows his check was cashed but still hasn't received the police cert. That was the silliest thing he's had to do yet for this!

Edited by FinnLove

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!

Hey Treehugger! I got my hardcopy yesterday in the mail, both the I-130 and the I-129f approval and they are dated for the 23rd of September too!!! I have been calling the AVR but they haven't updated it yet. I can't decide if I should call and speak to an operator or not!! I would hate to talk to a live person and them tell me that it hasn't arrived yet!!!

Let me know what you end up doing!!

Also, I have a question to post out there....On the approvals above the beneficiary's (husband's) name, there is a number above it. Is this the A number they ask for on the I-864 form???? It's A### ### ###

What do you all think???? :blink::blink:
