were you ever contacted by Embassy? did they ever let you know any thing? please if you don't mind sharing..........

I don't know why its long so long here is last email from embassy

Thank you for your email,

As per our available record, this visa case is still part of a departmental (integral) administrative process, (regrettably, not waive-able or expedite-able). Though, we certainly understand the importance of family reunion, and also aware about the frustration often caused by the delay.

Unfortunately, we are unable to predict the amount of time this process will require. However, it is imperative to mention that as soon as this process is concluded, we will move forward regarding this case, and will contact accordingly.

Sincerely,

IV Unit, Consular Section,

U.S. Embassy, Islamabad.

I am a spouse of LPR

My husband filled my petition in june2011, had our ( me and our 2 years old kid) interviews in dec2013. The CO told me that everything is fine and complete just some official work to be done by her, after that we'll get our passports back with visas InshaaAllah!!!

She told me that it could take 1 to 3 months but 5 months passed no sign of visas my husband call them every week but same reply that when its over they will inform us!!!

Today i got my passport with visa and packet .Thanks Allah...

Thanks To All vj friends who help me in all difficult process....All friends are always in my prayers who are still waiting for visa's ....

[janetusman 33]

not long a little over a month but I have been apart from my husband for a year and 7 months, and i think that i will not survive this, that we may not survive this.

Wow...you have only been in AP for 1 month? Many here have been in AP for many months, some even years. Going through AP at Islamabad is a true test of patience. Is the beneficiary female? If so, you may be lucky and your AP will only be a few months. If the beneficiary is male, then you need to be prepared for a very long AP. I am not saying that AP times can't be short, but the vast majority on this forum have had long wait times.

AP is difficult on relationships, it causes fights and incalculable stress between you and your spouse. This is your test that Allah has given you and its up to you and your spouse to pass it. The only thing you can do is be patient, respond to anything the embassy asks for and wait. Be strong for each other or you will end up going crazy or worse divorced which has happened.

I dont think the amount of time on AP is what is important, do not minimize my feelings and my hardships base on the time our case has been on AP frankly it is belittling. The amount of time people are apart due to the immigration process is really the hardship, and that is what I am trying to convey. I am well aware that there is no ti,e frame for the AP process, which makes things that much harder. We didnt even know that AP existed. There are things you dont know about how this immigration process has affected us.

I am not trying to belittle your feelings. I wish there was someone that would have prepared me in the beginning and told me about the reality of AP. My attorney had never dealt with this embassy and he did not prepare me for what I was in store for. The people here have provided me with such hope and support through this horrendous process that I can't thank them enough.

My husband and I have been on a five year journey. Everyone here has hardships of one kind or another. Who am I to say that anyone has it worse that someone else. I have seen stories of financial, medical, and emotional hardships of different varieties.

The point I was trying to make is that the embassy tests all of us to see if they can break us apart during the wait time. The embassy doesn't care about your hardships, they only follow their own timelines and procedures.

In cases of mixed marriages, they even go as far to deny and send your case back to USCIS for revocation adding a year or more to the process and trust me...no one can prepare you for that. I wish there was a rhyme or reason for what the embassy does, but there isn't.

In the end, all you can do is stay strong for each other.

Janetusman,

You are right its a very painful, frustrating and horrendous process. That is what embassy do and try to breakup relations by this nerves breaking process specially for mix couples. Not everyone have strong nerves to survive the impact of this nerve-racking AP process. Yes there are hardships associated with this entire process. Nothing we can do about it but just to be strong and fight but sometimes its a hard job itself. Good luck to everone.
