Hello everyone,

I need to seek some professional advice where My US citizen brother applied for me ( Syrian/Canadian Citizen) in April 2002 and my application was approved on Feb 01,10. we belong to the Vermont office which transferred it to nebraska office and fairly speaking, my application took 8 years till approval came in.

#1 What steps I should Expect Next?

#2 When should I expect to receive my NVC Case #?

#3 Is there anything on my side between now till my PD is about to be current I should be doing or working on together with NVC?

#4 As of now, I live and work in Toronto, Can i suggest to chose the consulate in Canada that runs Immigration interview ( eg. Montreal) even though in the future I might be livin abroad or its the NVC that will determine where to have my Immigration interview with the consular service.

Thank you for your great help,

Mustafa,

U got approved 4 years after your brother has applied for you........wowowowowowoow, knock on the wood, this is a record brother, mine took 8 years till i got approved. well, we both are now on the same boat and our bottom line is to get our NVC CASE #. this is the # that you should be identified with any future immigration paper work.

All the best'

Ps, Keep in mind your PD is Sep 2005 which is 6-8 years ahead including immigration visa processing time, in other word, u should make this the bottom of your concern

dear friend looks like we will be waiting for too long time and what i can tell you now it dose.'t matter if i get approved after 2 years or 5 or even after 8 like you but the good news is we should wait untill the visa become available and the are working now on the visas which thier periority date is jan 2000 i think that you will be wainting for another 2years and 4 months and i will be waiting for 5 years and 11 months and all i can say now .......... i am gonna forgot it it dosen't matter now iam 25 years old so when my date caome i ll be about 31 years that's really sucks bcuz the brothers have the lowest periority in the family immigration gatg.....
