Wow! It looks like we're the only two so far. Hopefully things will start to pick up at VSC for all the folks who've already submitted their petitions. By the way, it looks like your Timeline star

Oasis! i wish you all the luck this time! i was just wondering if you could share with us why the visa was denied @ the interview last time (if it's not too personal)? i always thought that the interview should be the easiest part of the process...

asmik... I am only been "touched" so no NOA2 yet.

The interview should be the easiest, yeaa thats what I thought.

I been with my fiance going on 2 years. When we went to the consulate in Rio, I was more then prepared, brought my evidence etc.

My fiance did not answer the questions right, he was not thinking before speaking etc... he was just blabbering around when they asked him: tell me about your fiance. I think he was just scared and nerveous. I am also 8 years older then my fiance and his english is not the greatest. So I think these were the red flags for me. The consul thought we dont have a real relationship and returned our first petition with a recomendation to have it revoked. It took 3 months for the petition to get back to the VSC but I have also since refilled.

My 2 petitions have been merged together and hopefully VSC is sending them both down there.

So for all of you that are complaining that it takes so long, why have I not gotten my NOA2 .. its been 3 months... take a look at my timeline and think how long I have been waiting !!!!!

That's horrible that they did that to you...

And, I don't think that most think 3 months is a really long time even if it feels like it is. I know it's less time than I expected but there is something strange about some people receiving one and two week approvals while others' petitions languish in the service centers for much, much longer.

I'm pretty sure every traveller needs a passport - regardless of country or race....only exception I could think of is maybe Canada as it borders?
