issued.... they say its an error?!

[ilovemypants 6]

OK, so after 20 working days our ceac finally said issued this morning, but when we called DoS they tell us that it's an error WHY DO THEY PLAY WITH OUR EMOTIONS LIKE THIS!!! Only 14 days till our wedding now, can't take much more Still have to wait for delivery and then then book flights.
Has anyone else been told this by them?!?
xXx

I'm sorry to hear this , I think there is either some issue with the ceac site right now or lack of communication between the embassy and dos.as the last two days I've received ceac updates and dos have pretty much told me they can't see them and informed me of the update I had before these last two updates.I'm having my emotions played with too.I keep getting my hopes up that my forms have been logged and I have a interview date to be disappointed when I call dos

I don't know what is going on either there is a issue and people are getting false updates or dos are not getting updated information from the embassy on their system

They do tell you not to make arrangements until a Visa is in hand.

I've just read another person having the same problem as me today.so that's three of us .either people are getting

Updates as a error or there is a glitch in the system and dos can't see the latest update the embassy has made.

I don't want to get your hopes up but maybe your visa was issued and it just isn't on the dos systems.as I received a update today and yesterday and dos can't even see it when they look.the last update they can see for me is 28th August

[lost_at_sea 995]

Hmm. I would be inclined to call again and get a second opinion, else try to contact the embassy direct.

FYI, it's labor day weekend in the US this weekend, so I don't expect all their lines to work on Monday (just a guess).

Embassy system=DOS system

If it is put into the system by somebody in London, Manila, or Paris--it is seen by DOS in the US.

Maybe the guys on the phone aren't so keen to give you the minute by minute story so don't look at every detail. That really isn't their job. That's why they did the online status thing. Maybe the system got a glitch. And maybe the visa is issued.

I called DOS (before they had an online status) because the computers were down on interview day. The interview guy said "tentatively" approved because he couldn't run the last security check until they got the computers back up. And the courier could not generate a receipt or give a proper number. So I called DOS a couple days later to find out if the computers were fixed and if the visa was approved or not. I was told "It says your fiancé was a no-show for his appointment. What happened, Hun? Why didn't he go to his interview?"

Huh??!? Just shows sometimes they don't tell you accurate stuff or maybe look up the wrong page.

Oh boy this is taking so long, as all mine ever says is AT NVC.

It took 6 weeks for them to get it from uscis and now even more frustration with their system !!!

I can see why we are all frustrated here.

My husband rang them today and all was said is same as last time = It is being reviewed. All week they have said that !!!

Frustrated isn't the word. !!!

[jola83 19]

That makes sense I guess as when I called to see what my update was a few days back,did told me that the embassy had emailed me to tell me to send my Ds forms but they hadn't ,they emailed me to say my forms hadn't been logged but give it four weeks and to inform them if it goes past the four week point and I still haven't heard anything.

It does kind of suck if it was an error though.

I agree I'd definitely call back or I'd be more inclined to contact the embassy directly.is your ceac update still saying issued? As to me if it does it really makes no sense for it to be a error as if dos can see on their system it was a error,then the embassy must be able to see that also so you would think they would change your ceac update.

I wouldn't take what you're told over the phone as 100% accurate.as nich-Nick said dos are not really there to update us .the ceac status tracker is however .so if anything you would think that information was more accurate than dos telling you something on the phone.

They also ask you for a wedding date

Cheers for all your info guys! <3

Within the 90 days after you enter on the K1.

Within the 90 days after you enter on the K1.

it helps your case if you show them proof of a wedding date. They asked me at the interview also when my wedding is.

[jola83 19]

On the form of readiness it does ask you to state wedding date (if any) or any travel commitments.at this stage alot of people seem to have wedding dates.

Anyways someone on here said they had their medical 233rd August and received a update like 4 days after and called dos and they told them it wasn't a update just a Internal note.but in my opinion it probably was the logging of their medical as around 4 days after is when they seemed to be logged.

I wouldn't panick yourself too much as maybe what dos is telling you isn't 100% accurate
