Nagi, was your husband told he was approved after the interview or was he put in AP? I am just curious in case there might be second interview to follow the one my husband already had.

Please if there is anyone else that was written a "final review" email from the embassy join in so we can all better understand possible timeframes for the chaos in Cairo.

Yes, we had emailed about a week before and my husband had received his visa and I had gotten the response a few days afterwards.

Well thats great that he had already gotten it, but I guess that goes to show that the Cairo embassy is so unorganized. I am praying that we hear something in the next few weeks about my hubby's visa.

The first interview they did not keep his passport and we were put in AP for just about 6 months.Then came the home visit about 4 months into AP, and just around the 6 month mark of AP he was called in for a second interview where he was told he was approved. He submitted his passport and it was stamped that day ( according to the DOS ) and the passport with visa arrived a week after that.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Nagi I didnt realize that you had such a rough road at the Cairo Embassy. Well im so happy that your hubby is here now with you and that you are completely done with the embassy. I am just waiting for some movement on DHL so that I can do a happy dance. Thanks for sharing your info Nagi.

Hello everyone. Well I emailed the Embassy on Dec 5th, 2009 and I received a reply today that stated:

"Dear Madam:

Thank you for your e-mail message.

The case is pending the officer’s final review. We will process the case to conclusion once that is completed.

Regards,

Consular staff"

I know that there have been several people that have received this type of email. I was wondering how long after receiving this "final review" email did you receive the visa? And if you havent received the visa yet when was the last time you might have received an email like this? I really appreciate any information you guys could share with me. I am really debating over whether I should go visit my husband or wait it out. Thanks in advance to any replies on this topic.

hi nancy

just be patient you alomst there could be matter of weeks or months before the consualr compelets all the actions on your case but it dose sound good dont worry final review sounds promising
