El Salvador's US embassy seems to have the SLOWEST visa issuance time of them all. I am petitioning that the Ombudsman and the Inspector General investigate this matter and come up with a solution to get them on normal processing time. Also, I've heard horror stories of people being mistreated, wrong case files being pulled, etc etc. Thankfully, we got through kind of unscathed but we were in AP for 3 days time so they could "Review the paperwork."

Anyway, all personal stories GREATLY increase chances of the investigation happening. I have over 100 signatures but need up to 500 before I send it. Any story shared will be cleaned up and submitted as having an "anonymous" author, so your name will not be attached.

Thank you in advance!!!!!!

I really did not have a problem with the embassy till I scheduled my interview. I had a date on UStraveldocs.com and I had a confirmation email for the date. The interview date comes and guess what? They said that they made a mistake and the interview was not that day and needed to be rescheduled!!! The next interview was a month away. So I had gone for the interview and so I ended up losing over $3000 in airfare, food, and room and board. Hopefully you can get them to at least pay attention.
