Once I did have my visa, I then proceeded to make a spreadsheet seeing how long on average it took to get the green card and SSN after POE.

I heart.gif spreadsheets!

Hi Debz, I'm sorry to hear about the RFE :unsure: How many RFEs is it for you guys now?? Regardless, once you get this RFE out of the way, I wish you guys a smooth journey and quick reunion :) Please do let us know what this RFE is all about...

Hey Sandip, CONGRATULATIONS bro!!! I'm really happy for you and your wife.

Out of curiosity, what airline did you guys take?

Did you purchase a one-way ticket for your wife from here before you left for Mumbai?

We have had what we thought was an rfe last friday for not receiving our AOS package. On Monday the operator told us they had received it. On tuesday we got an email asking us to send our AOS package and now today i have tried to sign into the payment portal and it says sign in failed. I called an operator and was told that our case was in final stages of review. Is it too much to dare to hope that we might get an interview soon or is this wishful thinking? I know no-one can say for sure but has this happened to anyone else?

I'd say that your case will be complete either today or tomorrow. Then you have to wait a bit for an interview date to be scheduled. I think the UK has the same waiting time as Montreal, so probably an August interview. But please don't quote me on that as I'm not an expert with UK timelines.

I agree with Saylin, looks like both our significant others will be interviewing in August- unless of course your embassy has an opening in July. Congrats!! :thumbs:
