Just a little update. My fiance went to his GP today and did get her to write the letter. However, it was done on an internal system and has to be printed in the main office. Printing is generally done on Fridays. She did mark it as urgent, though, and he's going to keep calling until it gets done. Even if it is Friday, at least I know it's been done and only has to be e-mailed to the embassy. Hopefully it'll only end up delaying us by 3 or 4 days.

It seems the embassies are pretty slow right now. I was hoping maybe to hear something by email (we're able to inquire about our case status). but with the time of the year. and some approaching holidays. I think it's going to take a little longer to get in the system. Kiev did confirm that they have the electronic copy in the system (whatever that is)...But hardcopy not yet...At least I know it was delivered. Now to make it too the consular section. Hopefully very very soon.

Thanks but does anyone here have the congressman's number of Maryland. Pls do advice me on how to go about it when I call my congressman. Thanks. 8mths plus waiting is no Joke!!!!

Hey Jay, you have to know which district in Maryland.. I found this website..

If you know which district - then just follow the link and it will give you all of the contact info.

http://www.msa.md.gov/msa/mdmanual/39fed/06ushse/html/rep.html

They will likely ask you to fill out a privacy release form. They will need your vital information too, including your USCIS case nbr.

Jay, your timeline says your NOA1 date is February 9th??

Good Luck!
