We, including myself, have been waiting for one another to start a petition. I know someone suggested that Mushashi do it (as he brought up the idea) but it seems unfair to dump it all on one person.

I sent an email last month seeing as how my case was in ap for 6 months they say after 6 months you can email. No response. That wasn't a surprise. I wish I had someone on the inside to see what is actually taking so long. Have they been working on my case for 6 months now or are my papers just sitting on a stack waiting to be stamped?

actually I have noticed if i stack papers high enough they can be used as a foot rest! But i think at the embassy they are probably used for better purpose then that like a fan when the power goes out. just kidding! seriously sometimes it appears that nothing is happening but perhaps there is some work being done to your file, Also keep in mind limited resources with high demands cause backlogs that last a long time. I dont think anybody has anything personally against anyone and im sure they would love to help. Just hang in there guys Inshallah things will move right along and one day you will see light at the end of the tunnel sooner then you think. And once you do see the light please give hope to the others because the long wait is well worth the rewards!

Anways I am telling you guys a short about us and everything ...we been really hard working on our case from 2008 starning callins emails to NVC And do alot of things got mistake few times at NVC Process and wait every few month to update the file and everything ... I am sure you guys know that how is this Process to contuine ...

Anways, my wife travel 3 times to Pakistan durning that time Last time she come .

in october 3. 2011. she was stay with me durning that time we keep calling to NVC ... and keep sending emails to Nvc... about our case and we joint co sponser from a friend here and he file co sponser for us to file case in NVC .... we comeplate that AT NVC..... One day I was eating my lunch and I was telling my wife to lets check emails .. I got email from NVC.... That my case been ferwrd to us embassy ... and my interview will be 19 Dec 2011 at 8:00am in Morning US Embassy in Islamambad.

I called to Medical Place for Medical Exam and I went to Islamambad for Medical Exam and Thanks Allah for clear my Medical Exam .. and I done at 10 Dec 2011 My medical Exam in Islamambad

We went to Islamambad at 18 dec 2011 and we stay at hotel in Islamambad .

its monday Morning 5:30am we wake up and call to texi to take us to us embassy in Islamambad we wake up without breakfast without tea and she have to take her medicaine for her pain since she had car accident 2 times in fest 2 years. and she was not feeling well that day ... she was nervous about my interview and everything ..

we went to embassy at 6:00am in morning without breakfast but we forget to take breakfast buz we were nervous and worried about interview thing.

7:00am bus take to embassy and i was first person to go to embassy in Islamambad... I enter to embassy show my ID Card and passport and Interview Letter ... we just wait there 7:30am we go inside to embassy .... we been waiting for call my name for interview ... time been going so slow and we where worried and nevrous about interview buz we been working on our case from so long since 2008.

guy come take to fingerprint place take my fingerprint and tell me to wait there for call your name for interview , After that we been setting there without breakfast and tea .... now 2:00 lunch time still i didnt hear my name and we just come out for to eat something my wife got fever and she was not feeling well from cold durning time .... and we eat something and she take her pills and go back to inside a embassy ..

now its 5:00pm ... they call my name to come to window number 1 for interview ...

consular officer ask me if i am relax and fine ... i ask yes sir, i am fine thanks ... he starning questions about us ......

1. When we meet online and where we know from each orther ....

2. whats my wife fav movies and fav clothes and fav food ...

3: Show Co marriage video pictures.. etc...

he was very nice to me he was smiling and asking question to me about my wife ...

my wife was there with me and orhther lady co ask her to come to window number 5

her interview was with orther co lady officer and mine was with orther co offcer ..

he was good and he checkin everything ... but he didnt said anything when he ask for everything and i show at him and he check everything i guess everything was fine at interview with him and interview was with him about 50 mintues .......

durning that time 2 pakistani consular officer come and ask me to fellow them and take me to one single room and asking question ... like why i married to this women and why i wanna go to usa and there was some stupid question they ask me whichs i can never ever forget that .... and i was smiling and very happy to answer every questuon they ask me interview was that 2 pakistani guy consular officer about 2 hours ....

they check every single papers of mine and my wife and everything was right they never find anything wrong with our decoments but sure we got some Age Diffrent but Love have no age .... I love my wife so much and she love me very much and we both love each orther Always ... and forever

we know each orhther from 2006... and we got married on dec 14 2007 ....2008....

that 2 pakistani consular officers was very rude to me and thanks allah I give them every single question Answer and they cant believe my english speaker powar is soo good and they keep asking where i learn that english and i told them that ofcoures my wife is teacher and she told me that english and she have higher education... and i was a FA Student .. here they were asking me she have higher education and they ask me about my jobs and everythign and they ask me about my wife family and everyone they got all information from us at that day ....

I just dont understand why they treat us like we are all terroist or something else....

my wife was very sad about that interview 2 pakistani guy take from me and we boht done interview 7"30pm and we were last person to left from embassy and we were first persons come to embassy in Islamambad i dont know why they treat us like that .... and now we are in AP.... for over 7 month and still got no words from embassy ....

in bening of ap they ask us for family information about my wife and whichs we are already told them in day of interview and after 2 months durning admin proccs they ask again for that information whichs was wasted the time and we send email to them and give this information to them about us and family ....

after 6 month of Adminstrive proccs there was a guy came from us embassy ... asking to my family friends about our marriage and things we do together ... and everyone of them answer to him about us its was good i know ....

I just dont know understand what take so long to this Adminstrion proccs and why they didnt answer our emails and phone calls to tell us how long its will take more to wait for that case to complate ......

I pray to allah to everyone on this horrible Proccess... May Allah bless everyone

Thanks that was short story about us .... they way how they treat us like that always ....
