WOO HOO!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[Chelliot 1]

Ran into a bit of bad news, my finace got flagged for the sputum test during her medical. This adds an additonal 8 weeks in the process. We had to cancel our 10-Dec interview date...

After almost waiting 6 months waiting to hear something from USCIS, now we have to wait 2 months hoping NOT to hear something from SLEC.

Yo! Omer1! You promised to tell us your life story, after some mysterious exam :devil:

What do you mean by packet 3.5??

Watch out- the Islamabad US Embassy might sue for phone harassment

Try waiting patiently??

[Chelliot 1]

I hoope everything goes OK.

Thank you very much. The smear test results expected Friday, I am figuring the final culture results to be complete by 4-Feb. Barring a positive result, we are off and runnng again!

[Kassil&Tierce 18]

Wow thats alot of advice thank you. How do I go about in contacting the NVC? I wil try and call the London Embassay today and see if they have heard of my name!

Thank you again, just waiting until Friday to see if any mail comes through and see if they are lying again lol!

Here's the page with their contact information; use the phone, they're slower than the service centers at responding to emails.

I am going crazy here!!! I have not heard yet from USCIS!!!! I filed May 16th got my NoA1 may 22nd and now I check USCIS website and it says they are working on May 28th!! That means I am outside normal processing time. I "thought" I filed a service request about a week ago and was expecting a reply with in 15 days only to be surprised today when I call again that they can't find that service request!!! So they have to do a new one and the 15 days will start all over again!! I honestly lost my nerves when I was speaking to the lady. I got my congressman involved and sent them an inquiry she told me they should inquire on my behalf sometime this week and by law, USCIS is supposed to respond by 10 days!!! But I am not sure if she inquired yet. I am going crazy over here. I am just sooooooooo worried. My fiance and I are cousins. Would that cause a delay? It's normal though in the middle east to get married to your cousin. Also, we'll be getting married in Fl. where they allow cousin marriages. I am sooo worried and just going crazy and really depressed now

Take a couple deep breaths. Don't worry - it'll get there, probably soon. More than likely your case is just on the desk of someone lagging behind on their filing for some reason or another.

Looks like the Vermont Center updated their processing times for the I-129F up to May 28th, 2012. Finally, that allowed our application (NOA1 May 9th) to be overdue and so today I called and asked for a service request. They say that they'll have a notice by December 20th and gave me a service request number. At least that's some progress. Here's hoping for an answer before long.

WOO HOO!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Thanks! It came and went.

I really hope the blocks in the road for some of you guys are short lives and that soon you'll be just frustrated because the day that flight has been booked can't come quick enough!

I hope that it just means that all the May files are being processed, on someones desk. it can't be too far away.

well I'm here, in Hawaii now. POE was fairly smooth, except Hawaii requires your x-rays at POE, so I had to get escorted to my bag and bring it back up again, luckily I had it in my front pocket, although I've realised just this second that my immunisation worksheet was in the envelope. gahhhhh!!! that seriously sucks. Hopefully I can get it back somehow.

anyway, small things. my fiance was very excited, I came out into the pick up area at the airport and he had a big sign saying, 'welcome home Shannon' and he had the NZ flag and USA flag on it too. so cute! we went and picked up some lunch and headed home, he showed me a photo slide he made to music of the two of us and he had bought a bottle of champagne too. so fantastic experience. all the waiting forgotten in an instant.

once you get to your loved one, or they get to you, its all worth it. I hope everyone makes it soon.
