I sent an email to the consulate April 14, 2011. Got the auto response in two or three minutes. Got the real response May 17, 2011, with the quote "thank-you for your inquiry. We regret the delay in our response".

May 29, 09, had attorney send I-129F to USCIS

June 3, 09, USCIS received I-129F

June 4, 09, USCIS I-797C, 1st NOA notice date.

Aug 28, 09, USCIS sends I-797E NOA. RFE requesting further evidence we have met within 2 years prior

Sept 3, 09, I sent updated RFE info to USCIS

Sept 8, 09 USCIS receives my info

Sept 11, 09 USCIS sends I-797C NOA--I-129F Petition approved, also forwards petition to NVC

Sept 23, 09 NVC receives approved I-129F from USCIS also forwards petition to consulate in HCMC

Dec 4, 09 Interview at HCMC Consulate, Blue slip, timeline, ex's address, medical results from Cho Ray

Jan 4, 10 Turned in timeline, ex,s address. White slip, 221(g) for lack of medical results. AP pending results.

Jan 4, 10 Cho Ray diagnosis--class A active multi drug resistant tb. Treatment time 18 to 24 months.

Jan 6, 10 I email consulate re: what do we do next, since K1 expires Jan 10, 10.

Jan 13, 10 Consulate replies--They have received all requested documents and the case is pending a CO review

Since the case is pending due to treatment of tb, the case is still active until treat-

ment is complete provided we contact the consulate every 6 months and notify

them she is under treatment to keep the file in open status.

Jan 14, 10 to July 2012 we wait.

July 2012, visa issued.

Aug 2012, Marriage in US.

Thats typical HCMC. I sent them a email Jan 27,2011, and got a reply with the same response on April 28, 2011. Most likely would not have gotten that, except that i contacted my Congressman April 21, 2011

Same with my recent communications with them.. My email of last week didnt even get the auto response so I said screw it and went to talk with my congressional rep... thank god he is only a few blocks from my house... he gets a response in a couple of days... I send all emails read recpt.. the last one they opened was 3 weeks after it was sent and auto responsed... then a couple of weeks later they sent me an email saying sorry for the delay here is what we told your congressman(a month earlier)

I've gotten replies in as little as a few weeks to as long as few months.
