UGH! Stop. At the risk of being flamed by everyone, and being a visajourney member myself, I still have to ask if you guys could keep this stuff offline and off the forum? This can't be the only way y

I can only imagine the dread that April and May filers must be thinking. The same things we did when we saw February people waiting 200 days. The denial... "Oh, surely they will catch up by us?" or th

In honor of the amazing super fast VSC rep holding our case hostage, I've written a poem. It is to the tune of "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch". I call it, "Ode to Mister Sloth". You're a slow one,

HELLO MARCHIES!!! I couldn't wait to tell you what happened this morning, but of all days...my internet was out!

So I am 99.9% sure we will have the VISA on Thursday!! He gave them over 200 pages of emails, Skype, Affidavits and a letter from me. Four-five minutes later they called him to the infamous "window". He had a different person this time. The guy handed him all our original documents and said "You are good, we don't need these anymore" and then asked for his passport and told him to come back Thursday at 4:00 pm. NOT ONE QUESTION WAS ASKED! He also said that there were at least 5 other people there that were with him last week. Apparently saying "no" is a standard procedure for these clowns.

So based off what I have heard...if they keep your passport and you have to go back, this means they are going to give you the VISA right? I can't imagine why else they would keep it. I hope this is the case because I am making plane reservations for him for Friday morning! :) I am not taking any chances.

Perfect! Congratulations!

I found out that maybe I won't have to wait for packet 4. They got my packed 3 on Friday and I'll try calling them tomorrow. I already had my medical so I would have to pay the fee and try to schedule an interview. But I am trying to stay realistic.
