Hello everyone!

I know I'm going to sound a little dumb but can anyone tell me how I can add my timeline every time I post something? Do you add it to your signature? And how do you do that? And also can anyone tell me if you can get a blood test from a non immigration participating provider for your vaccines or all the vaccines needed if you don't have your vaccine record? I saw a list of the vaccines and the prices and they are ridiculous if they are given by one of the qualifying immigration doctors... :wow:Thank you! :luv:

Apparently NVC was just waiting for me to lose all hope, sit back and get comfortable before throwing us for a loop. Yesterday evening we received an email notification for a May 19 interview in Londo

I also forgot to ask if anyone knows how long it is taking people from Guatemala to get an interview from the day their case is complete?

Why would NVC tell me i have to wait "30 business days"? Is that a "set time"? Until I get a case number? Or randomly do they just pull case numbers outta their a&& on any given day?frustrating because I don't know what's going on..."like always", this thread isn't like the last thread from June 2013 filers at uscis! Uh could I get a case # "BEFORE" the "30 business days"? Should I keep calling NVC even though they told me "April 2nd" they received my case? Tons and tons of questions....haaaaay! My attorney said he would do the 260 form for me. Should I even "WORRY" because I got am attorney? Or?????

That's just a standard time they give for everybody but depending on their mood and if they are feeling generous apparently it could be less or it could be more... :mellow:I know how u feel I have been waiting forever since I did my I-130 and I can't even get a case number, yet some people that applied only a few months ago already have a visa number or even case complete. I really wish I knew how this works and I'm tired of playing the waiting game... :clock:

I'm not sure. I found her as a stray. She kept showing up everyday for a month looking all skinny and pathetic so I started feeding her. Then she tried to come in my house so I decided to buy kitty stuff and keep her. Then when I took her to the vet she was already spayed so someone own her at some point. Oh well! Finders keepers! She's been with me for over 5 years now. She is very well behaved but can be a bit feisty at times, so basically she's just like me. We were perfect for each other! :luv:(L)

Hahahaha too cute just like you eh, sweet. Well, she does look like a Russian Blue to me and sometimes idiots move and leave some of their family behind. Or the little one escaped and for what ever reason couldn't find her way back home. Non the less she found her forever mommy and that is what's important. :)(F) She is a beauty.

Huhu I am really upset right now. I'm in the process of changing my name on my passport to my married name so that I will have my husband's name on it. The downside is, it won't be available until the second week of May. *sighs*

Sorry Fairy Godmother Saylin, I might bring the average processing time on your spreadsheet longer. :(

Ok but Social Security is even more important to have with your husbands name. It costs more but you can expedite your passport why

don't you go down there and see if they will rush it for you I think they can have it done in three days.

In the Philippines, that is already the soonest I can get it.

I have a question though, how will I know which name will be used for the Social Security? Sorry, I'm thinking ahead of myself.

Sorry thought you where in the USA. The name on your Social Security would be your husbands name because you will get (fill out form) your SS when you

come to the USA. By then you will have your name change. :) Is there anything in the Philippines like say ID you can change your name to your husbands? You can send them a certified copy of that, I would think it's just as good or better. You can tell them or your husband that you are in the process of changing your name on your passport and will send that as soon as you can or show it at the Embassy.
