Oh no!! If these guys haven't gotten any letters yet, that's pretty worrying! Don't they usually send letters out from the 26th or so? Any word on the Chinese forums?

It used to be that way for some months. But last month, for example, they started to send out interview letters just a couple days before the bulletin was published. It seems there's no exact time frame for this. I won't worry yet.

I would worry, as last time I called them (It was about two weeks ago), they said they are processing the FEB/2005 ones, and they also said they are running a bit behind as the dates are moving so fast.

So there might be no movement this month till they catch up with their backlog.

We shall see.

Hopefully it will be similar to last month. But it could also mean something else, like alenajafzadeh said. We just have to wait and see. And waiting is the worst part! :wacko:

I am thinking about my visa journey and I think that the process is really strange. I mean how can you tell someone that their case is completed and then explain that they have to now wait for another year or two before a visa number is available.

I am a trooper but this process is really frustrating..

Yea, I completely agree. It gets your hopes up and then tramples on them. You want to remain optimistic but then you're basically living for news from one month to the next for just the slightest change, if any, in your situation.

The only comfort is seeing at least some movement per month (the months where it does actually move) and the fact that there are other people in the same situation who understand the feeling.

Let's keep our hopes alive.

I was checking what happened last month (go back to page 26 in this thread). People started receiving interview letters around March 6th (Tuesday), and the bulletin was published on Friday 9th (since the 11th was a Sunday).

So, last month people started receiving interviews 3 days before the bulletin was published (except for F2A which I think started receiving them 5 days before, on the 4th).

April 11th is next Wednesday. If things go like last month, people will start receiving interview letters tomorrow or Monday (well this is my guess). Good luck to all of us! :thumbs:

PS. Also, this week is Holy Week and Sunday is Easter. Not sure though if that actually contributes to the delay, if some employees take some days off. Random guesses :blush:

So there

is no interview leter yet, but I have a diferent problem. I see that they often ask when you are planing to travel to US. As much as I would like to move as soon as possible, i think it might be impossible. I would be moving from EU and there is a Europian

Footbal championshinp in June that i would really like be part of (soccer rulez) :))) So should I say that i will travel right after my team wins the tournament or should i keep it to myself ;)) and cheer for the best

You all guys rulez for being here for all of us. Best of luck to all of us !!!

im not really sure but I think once u get the visa; you have up to 6 months to travel.... so I don't think that will be an issue
