Hey all,

So we finally got our case complete on April 11th. I really thought we'd be in with a chance for a May interview, however 2 weeks on and we STILL haven't been assigned our interview date. I'm just a little concerned it's taking so long between case complete and interview date. Should I be worried or is normal to be waiting 14 days and counting (because it didn't happen today and if it doesn't happen tomorrow it won't be until next week) :wacko:

Glad to know someone else is in the same boat! :) Always feels less worrying to know you're not the only ones! Seems to be taking so long! (I reckon May was a busy month) Do you think it will be a June interview now then?

Awesome thank you!

Also, I'm hoping to fly over mid May so my hubby and I can be together for our anniversary! Then I'd fly back in time for my interview. I'm getting really mixed messages about whether this is do-able or not! I have an ESTA which is approved and valid for another 18 months so I can legally enter on that. I'm just not sure how likely I am to be denied entry when I land in the US?

There is no law or rule that says you can't visit. If you have visited 90 days over and over, they are more likely to say you have visited enough. It all depends on the person you get at the airport. I would think you should be able to convince them you are there for your anniversary and your immigrant visa and greencard are being issued shortly so there is no reason to become an illegal immigrant at this point. Show them your paperwork if they decide to question you Cry....beg...whatever it takes. You only have to persuade that one guy. It is totally a judgement call by him.
