kicking.gifWe've just received our interview date. July 12!!!! Yeeaaaaahhhhh!!!

I called last night and they gave me their standard verbage - 2nd week of the following week. headbonk.gif Well, here we go!!!!

Congratulations!!

But on a side note, I just heard another VJ member from Hong Kong got the 221(g) slip for additional processing....I'm so worried now...Not sure why they get that slip or what's the circumstances. But it still scared me and I'm so worried now....

At least you are about a month behind mine, I'll try my best to write a review for you...

Best wishes and Congratulations to all those who just got the interview date!!

Yeup, I'm still on the back burner waiting for that SIF. I would think us three wait-k-teers (Cix-Ally-Chey) will get CC this week. We're all blown for June, but hopefully we can at least be first in

I'm hoping for today. They started reviewing my first package on the 12th and they finished the review on the 19th.

They started the review of my second package on the 19th... I hope they will take only a week this time as well.

Good luck! Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us!

Sorry to hear about this. It seems they are doing a supervisor review on almost everyone who calls in about their RFE. It happened to us, too. And it took about 14 days! Frustrating!

Do you think sending the originals again might help or should I just wait until the review is complete?

I am not sure on this one. I spoke to 3 different operators before I found out exactly what they needed from us. The first told me my hubby's birth cert was wrong. The next said no it was the marriage cert, but wasn't sure what the problem was. Finally the 3rd said they needed the original of our muslim marriage cert or contract as most call it.

I went immediately to UPS and sent the original (although I didn't want to because I can't get a replacement). I used the cover sheet for the DS230 and they received it ok, but it still took a little time that we hated to lose!

Maybe you could call back and ask another operator. If you sent originals to begin with, they should be able to work this out for you... but who knows! But I would make sure about which documents they need before I sent anything.

Hope I helped some how!

alright so finally some nice operator transferred me to the supervisor by asking only once. unfortunately, supervisor wasn't able to help me and she told me exactly what the operator said "wait for 10-15 days, we can't tell u anything until the re-review happens on birth cert"......arghh i thought she would b able to help me. so now i should wait and watch what decision they make on it. i haven't received the mail from my husband so in meantime they'll hopefully b done with reviewing.

Hey, nice to see another CR-1 from Russia.

The end of the story is you're probably going to have to wait whatever the reason is.

Anyway, I wouldn't bother sending in the same documents. If anything, it'll probably confuse them. Sadly you may have to wait for the review. If they're expecting different documents, they'll eventually tell you; just make sure you keep on top of them til they give you an answer after those 10 days are up.
