This whole process is just torture. From gathering data to the wait to what I'm reading about some if these interviews. I don't even know what color my own toothbrush was! I had to look. I throw them

Not sure if you know this; ALL petitions are posted/sent/mailed to Texas. This is not the service centre your petition stays at. The NOA1 will state SRC or CSC and this is NOT a transfer. If you wer

We were APPROVED!!! I'm so happy. I can't thank everyone here enough. I'm sure we would've had RFE's, 221g's and way more meltdowns if it wasn't for all of you. You guys rule and I'm so glad we all we

I don't know about that but I will be calling NVC on Monday since that is a bank holiday here and the Consulate will be closed. I don't want to wait til Tuesday to know the date.

Maybe the NVC will be helpful, maybe they won't, but i'm going to try.

Hey there--any luck on finding out an interview date?

Our status on CEAC changed to "Ready" today, so we filled out our DS-160 and submitted the readiness form--just curious if we will get an interview date before the medical like you did! :)

It is.. but I suppose it would be more depressing if it was still winter and -45 outside. Trying to stay positive and take advantage of all things Canadian and my Canadian health care while I can, haha.

I'm so sorry to hear that! They really have no idea what they are doing and what emotional damage it causes. Maybe we should just all apply to work for immigration once approved - since we all know what it's like to be on the other side!

Thank you, yes I was so excited when I was told it had been approved and then two hours later I didn't know what to feel.

Can I ask what number you called? Also what did you say?

I called the 800 number on the site, and got the automation, after I entered everything, pressed 3 and spoke to a lady there. She did give me the estimate of when to get it, July 11 (5 months). I HATE this wait... Whats more is I HATE seeing that people who filed WAY after me are getting them in 10 days in some instances.... Its just not fair. They claim they process them as they come in well that's a lie.... Considering many people from March, and April are getting theirs while I'm sitting here twiddling my thumbs.

I rarely come here because it's so discouraging to see this.

Yes I called the 800 number too I talked to someone there who gave told me I had been approved and sent me to NVC. Then today I called the 800 number and talked to someone and they sent my call to another department where they told me I had to wait and that they have two more months. I asked if anything was missing from my file or if there were any issues and they told me that everything looked good they just needed more time. So now I'm a little confused as to why it isn't being approved if it looks complete?? This waiting is so difficult. :(

So our case arrived in London on April 28th and was marked to "Ready" on May 1st but my fiance has not yet received his letter (this is packet 3, correct?) from the Consulate. His medical is tomorrow, and he has already submitted everything else including his readiness form. I know everything should be fine and with the bank holidays it could've gotten delayed, but I still worry! That and I feel like maybe we should have waited for the letter to submit the readiness form, but I figured they wouldn't have marked it to "ready" if they didn't send anything out yet! What should I do??

Hey guys! I called NVC yesterday and finally got our new case number, woo! I checked CEAC and our case says "In transit," but also had this message "Your case is in transit to the Consular Section. Your interview date was provided to you by the National Visa Center." When I talked to the guy at NVC he didn't mention an interview date? Is this just a standard message and no interview date was actually set yet? My fiancé hasn't booked his medical yet because he's waiting on his police certificate. Just wondering. Also, when should he fill out DS-160? Can he do that before he has his medical booked?

For those that are still waiting, every day that passes I hope for good news for you!! I know the wait is agonizing, don't lose hope. Once you're approved and you don't have to deal with USCIS anymore, it will be so much easier!!
