Hey everyone,

Friday: I called DOS and they told me that they were doing final processing.

Monday: I called Islamabad embassy and they told me that they sent the passport to Lahore.

Tuesday: My husband got a call at 11 this morning and he now has the visa on hand!

:) :) :) thank you so much for all your help and support through this entire process. I really appreciate all the support.

I wanted to know if people would suggest that my husband waits until July to travel since it will be two years since we got married, as of right now its a CR1 but then it would be an IR1. The validity of the visa is until August. Thanks everyone!!!!!

Congratulations. That is wonderful news.

If he wants to, you can certainly wait. I know I wouldn't but if you avoid the ROC that way, then may be it is worth it?

If he can wait and there is nothing extremely important(other than your being together asap I mean...:D) that he needs to be there for in the U.S....then please definitely wait as you will be spared the entire ROC mess! It's a benefit beyond measure!

Just my suggestion....Good luck and so many Congrats and Mubaraks!!! ^_^
