Bridget- I am SOOOOO sorry to hear this. Oh my gosh. I can't even imagine what hell you are going through.

Is the Baghdad embassy up and running? Is his stuff still going through Sweden and he is just waiting out AP in Iraq?

My thoughts and prayers are with you- that this will all have a happy ending soon.

they said his ap must be finished in sweden before they will transfer his case to iraq.Then we may ormaynot have to reinterview in baghdad.they are up and running in baghdad it seems. I just am so afraid for him.He at least hassomeone to stay with there but he is scared.thanks for the prayers they are the only thing that will help at this point.This has given me an stomach ulser i spent 3 nights at the hospital so far

well just wanted to let yall know we are still in ap in sweden.a few days and it will be 2 months...i hate the waiting ...They didnt deny his visa at our interview,they just said we had ap for additional background checks.can they still deny you if your background checks come back clean.or our we approved as long as they come back clean. this whole process seems to be a big nightmare so im still so scared something will go wrong.we already both had 2 hr interrigations that they said was a normal interview.I dont think it can get much worse but you never know.now our attorney says we will probably have to interview again once they tranfer his case to iraq.i wonder if we will have to go thru ap again there.they want transfer his case from sweden til our ap is finished there.I guess im just scared.i miss him so much and now hes back in iraq im afraid everyday for him.I pray this ap gets finished soo.plz keep us in your prayers.

Thanks for the update Bridget- I have been thinking about you. AP sucks-no two ways about it. The not-knowing is torture. You will drive yourself crazy thinking of the "what ifs"- focus only on the positive. Each case is so different. With that said, I am all for being proactive and knowing what the "averages" are. Get ready for a wait. AP for someone from Iraq is somewhere between 8-10 months. Knowing this may help. (I know, a weird type of help, but knowing a date sometimes helps you focus and not worry away your today) We were just a few weeks away from 10 months AP when our call came. I hope yours comes earlier. Like I said, each case is different.

Personally, I do not see why they would have to reinterview in Iraq if he already interviewed in Sweden. He is interviewing with the US not with Sweden or Iraq. It is the US that keeps the file and makes the decision on his coming here. Of course, my idea of what would make sense is just that- my idea. (if I only ran the world!)

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Keep strong. You can do this. Positive, positive, positive thoughts...
