HCMC Interview roll call

[Anh bob 0]

Ok. I called the DoS again. They told me I asked for a congressional expedite, so all papers were sent from NVC to HCMC.Thats why they said all papers were received. Is this a good thing? Has anyone had any luck with this? I hope they do something soon.

That does not make much sense since the hard copy of the file had to be at the consulate for them to do the initial interview. So I dont understand what they sent from NVC... I dont understand how the documents got to NVC if in fact they were sent from NVC.. There is no congressional expedite that I am aware of as the congressman has no say in the process only that the consulate must respond to a congressional status inquiry.

It really sounds like you keep getting rookies at DoS when you call... I hope something is actually happening in your case

I don't know if I'm doing it correct when I call the DoS. I call 202-663-1225 and when someone answers, I say I want to check on the status of my wife's visa. They only tell me what they see on the computer screen, which is "my wife's case is pending review". I ask them if they know more, and they don't. As far as I know, they haven't done anything with this case in almost a year.

[ScottThuy 140]

Ask them when was the last update in the case. And what the update was... they can only see whats on the screen but they can drill down a few screens if they have any experience with the system.

Your congressman may be able to do an inquiry asking what the issue is since it has been so long... not a status check but a request for explanation of delay.

I'm pretty stoked! I just got an update!

Dear Sir/Madam,

The case is still pending review by a consular officer. We will notify

the beneficiary once the review is completed.

Sincerely,

I think you guys are good to go! Just my opinion, but I think that means you are approved once those items are updated (resubmitted).

Yes it means that you need to go get that stuff and go and turn it in and get the visa. Many congrats and God bless.

[ScottThuy 140]

Spot on!... The application has been approved and they just want those documents so all requirements are met.. when she delivers those documents they will 99.9% give her a pink slip saying come back in a week.. then there is a 50% chance the visa will be ready on that day... in any case you are good to go IMO... just a matter of jumping this one last obstacle..

Congrats..

I'm pretty stoked! I just got an update!

Was this a solicited response to an email from you or a congressional rep? Or was it out of the blue?

It was a reply to my e-mail to the consulate. Just another canned response.

Say, has you wife arrived yet?

[ScottThuy 140]

Yes.. she is sitting next to me right now...

My Senator has made an inquiry for me, havent heard back from them yet but I did call dos today and they said the case was updated by thier inquiry but were still in AP. Its got to be all the additional evidence I turned in. I think Jerrome hit it on the head. Every visit I've made to VN I went to the consulate with tons of stuff and Duyen has also gone several times to turn in both our phone records. Havent turned anything in for a month or so, so we'll see. Planning my 5th trip for TET already but hoping something will happen so we can celebrate it here.

for the past 3days my wife and i are trying to decide which hospital to go to for her medical exam.! BV cho ray or IOM , at cho ray we have to wait until 11/11/10 to get in but at IOM we can get in within a day or two. so we hear IOM is faster and ez but will not recommended for anyone with lung problem.

anyway it went really smooth at IOM she was there at 7:30 today and got everything done at 10..

she on her way home and be back tomorrow to IOM office to get the stuff.

*so anyone here who wife's need to get there medical report done fast and have no problem with there lung or health i really recommend go to IOM it cleaner,faster, and it got AC ....

BTW thank you everyone here for being on our side and helping us with question and problem for many month. specially to Scott . thank you ya'll
