Wow...a lot of things have happened for everyone since I have last visited...I had a great trip last week to see Yenifer and to be honest I have just been a little burned out from this ridiculously SLOW process...but we have all of our documents ready and we haven't lost faith nor will we ever lose faith.

Over 5 weeks now since my approval and it has not been received by NVC...they are no help either telling me I have to wait 90 days until anything more can be done with on mt inquiry.

Anyway I want to say CONGRAULATIONS to you Buck on your recent marriage to your love!!!! :thumbs:

Good luck Mike on your upcoming interview. :yes:

Things are getting very close for you Byron keep us posted. :dance:

God Bless

Hello Brian

You can send the documents but you are past the cut off date for a November interview. You are looking at December now. Of course I don't know how the holidays will effect the interview date. If i'm wrong, i'm sure the forum experts will jump in for a correction. I would still definately send the documents next week.

Scott, it took 5 weeks from USCIS to NVC and the only way we found out it was sent to BGT, was by calling NVC and speaking to a supervisor, Good Luck !!!
