F1 case complete and waiting for visa # availability

[PatientMan 23]

Yeah I have everything, so no big deal and may is still on. New police cert to get takes like 1 hour drive and 10 mins paper work so it's all done. Not like medical exam. it took me like a whole day; 5am took a train then 8 am - x-ray at one place than 10 am blood sample at another then go back to pick-up x-ray result around noon, after that pick up blood results at 2pm and have exam around 3 pm and it took me like 5 min to get it all signed of. I was back home around 7 pm; so it was a long day I am still surprised am so healthy So now we will see what future brings!!

So they made you run around and pick up the results and make you pay for the exam?

Sounds like they should be paying you for running errands.

Sorry to ask again, where are you based again?

Eitherway, happy for you, its done and dusted, so you just have to wait for the interview. till then enjoy.

Thanks Mohamed, I actually already had my interview since I'm in the US. If there's a 7+ week jump this might be the end of my long agonizing journey to get the green card. Good luck to everyone! Hope we all hear some good news soon.

PD: August 24, 2005

Welcome data2005! I just added you to the watch list.

[PatientMan 23]

Yaa,,...we think that there r less applicants in year 2005..but the picture is sumthg different than we assume...

we think that members here r the only guys with PDs in year 2005 but there r still lot of applicants who r not member here but hav PD in year 2005....May be they must be unaware of these forum and discussion living in small towns or villages...

Coz last month there were total 39 applicants of India + 13 more of New Delhi Consulate....So total 52 applicants of India only....

Now PD has just moved 1 month and there r 19 applicants...New Delhi embassy has not yet posted appointments for May 2012...so the number still is not exact....

But i still hope there would be a lot more Visa Numbers left in this fiscal and our category move 2 months each month...i dont go for more but 2 months would be reasonable....

Probably we can see Jan 2006 in next 5 months i.e in Oct 2012 VB...Well i just hope, the picture can be different also....

New Delhi schedule for may is now online:

http://photos.state.gov/libraries/india/395150/IV_002/IV%20Appointment-may%202012.pdf

14 F1s, no duplicates in any category.

And some cases even date back 2005, I wonder what were these cases doing there for 7 years.

So Mumbai schedule seems to have some issues.

hi for everyone

i think that most of us know that the annual numerical limit for a single country in f1 category is 7 percent of 23400 visa or 1638 visa.

And for f2b category is 1838 visa.

But iam wonder why a country like dominican republic get in year 2010 (3841) visa in f1 category and (12866)visa in f2b category!!!!!!

which by far exceed the annual limits per country and the same is happen for many years.#

even mexico which is the most heavy demand country did not get this huge amount of visas.

i think guys that dominican republic absorb our visas.

#my reference is ncv statistacis

Here is the appointement schedule for DR:

http://santodomingo.usembassy.gov/scheduled_appointments.html

one problem is, it does not tell the visa category.

List is very long, and again so many duplicates.

One can draw different conclusions:

a) useless IT system

b) almost every applicant comes with lots of (human)baggage

c) to cause confusion!

d) ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

e) I'm missing something

[mohamed el bakr 15]

i see in this list up to ten applicant have the same case number how can this come?

i can understand this in a category like f2a or f3 but how this can work in a categories like f2b and f1 ?!!

i dont know may be this country have a unique status!!!!!!

It seems someone on the F2A thread got an interview letter. So they might start sending interview letters before the bulletin again?
