Darnell, you are not the only one that has been trying... sometimes you just gotta give up trying to help and put the energy on someone who appreciates it!

Sorry but provoking people isn't fun, nor is it polite/mature. If we are all stressed out, maybe we're coming in here to relax/get answers/feel BETTER...not worse. And for the record, every time I s

Yes, Darnell is is arrogant, with a touch of conceitedness thrown in. He's straight forward and to the point, he doesn't sugar coat it, to the point that it's sometimes rude. Sometimes that's what peo

Oh, no, I wasn't saying you weren't feeling happy for them, but, I meant, when you see someone else's case progressing, close your eyes, and imagine you were that person, feeling the happiness. Don't just congratulate the person here, actually feel what they must be feeling.

Do you remember the feeling you got when you found out your I-130 was approved? Or when you got your case number assigned? Be feeling those feelings of happiness every single day! You'll be in the US before you know it if you do ;)

I get you now, Momma LOL ...i was my own cheering squad earlier in fact... didn't u see my previous posts from this morning??? my bad mood is from work honestly... a month of work down the drain... its not really NVC that's my main problem right now... but back to positive thoughts... oh, and I am the USC, btw...lol

Thanks Saylin! Yes I just talked to the operator and she said that the case was still there with them @ NVC. If I remember correctly, last Friday an operator told me exactly what you just wrote that sometimes they wait for a couple of cases to get interview dates assigned and then they ship them in bulk, or something like that.

Yeah, it definitely makes sense that explanation. Guess Columbia doesn't get as many cases as Canada does laughing.gif

I'd like to add to what Saylin has said here as a reminder to everybody. It seems that just lately members have been expecting instantaneous case numbers, notification, case completes, interview dates. So I'd like to suggest that before asking why you haven't got xxx yet you look at the current timescales to see how long things are actually taking. Most of the posters on here have added timescales to their signatures - and if you haven't please do so to help others - and include the beneficiary's country.

Having said that, fun whining about the lack of invoicing due to the price change is allowed but only until NVC sort it out.

Nothing's instantaneous in this process no0pb.giflaughing.gif

Congrats!! I wanted to know also if they got my file at the embassy. I called them yeserday and they said they have not received it from NVC as yet. So not sure whats the time line as to when they send it....

Has your case left NVC yet?

I get you now, Momma LOL ...i was my own cheering squad earlier in fact... didn't u see my previous posts from this morning??? my bad mood is from work honestly... a month of work down the drain... its not really NVC that's my main problem right now... but back to positive thoughts... oh, and I am the USC, btw...lol

Oh, I see all posts, don't worry ;)

And change my last comment to: your spouse will be in the US before you know it ;)laughing.gif

For all of my fellow VJ Friends currently in the process of "waiting for something" cheer up and remember that this entire process is a "WAITING GAME" ... you are either waiting for you NOA2, your NVC case # ,acceptance of DS-3032, AOS or IV Bill, Case review, Case Close, Assignment of Interview Date, or Waiting for the actual Interview Date, OR Waiting for POE.

So at any freaking stage you're always waiting for something, so if you think of this as part of the process and prepare yourself mentally to "Wait" you could save yourself some extra gray hair and anxiety along the way :girlwerewolf2xn:

Keep it up! It will be over before you know it ... :yes:

Citizenship

6/24/2016: Mailed N-400 package via USPS from Naval Base Yokosuka, Japan
