What the heck!

Our petition was rec'd by NVC on 31 July and sent 02 Aug to Manila Embassy. The question becomes... Why isn't the NVC processing the petitions? Goodness, they get the job done! By the by, the NVC folks are friendly, courteous, and helpful. I wish they were performing visa interviews as well (wishful thinking)!

Yeah Baby Yeah!!!

All the NVC does for K1 petitions is assign them a case number and make sure they get directed to the right embassy. There is no other processing, so it does go very quickly (most of the time).

I have a weekend in the way of my receipt... I'm hoping for Frankfurt to receive our by mid next week!

By the way... did NVC tell you that the embassy already received it, or did you phone the Embassy?

8-30-05 Met David at a restaurant in Germany

3-28-06 David 'officially' proposed

4-26-06 I-129F mailed

9-25-06 Interview: APPROVED!

10-16-06 Flt to US, POE Detroit

11-5-06 Married

7-2-07 Green card received

9-12-08 Filed for divorce

12-5-08 Court hearing - divorce final

A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.

YnaYeBa0808 - This whole process is emotionally and physically exhausting. When I read that our cases are already at the Manila Embassy already, I began to think about the darn visa interview... I'm now NERVOUS! Although we have nothing to be nervous about. I'm NERVOUS anyway.

I need to lay down... CALL A DOCTOR! LOL!

They run security checks also.

I only offer advice - not even legal. Just the plain and simple kind.

Deep breaths. Use a paper bag if you hyperventilate.

I didn't think they did that for K-visas. Well, if they do, they're still processing at light speed, compared to USCIS.

YnaYeBa0808 - If I go to the interview, I feel like I'm going to be the one to mess it up. LOL! She's all anxious and level headed. I'm the one fainting and stuttering. LOL!

devilette - I have no idea how they are tracking the package to the Embassy. Goodness, everyday I learn something new about this process.

YnaYeBa0808 - Let's call on Sunday to check whether they have received our petitions. The number is 011-63-2-528-6300 ext. 5184 or 5185. About three weeks ago, a lady in the Nonimmigrant Visa Unit was kind enough to give me the Immigrant Visa Unit extensions where K1 Visas are processed.
