4am and I can't sleep. So upset about this visa #######. I feel like I can't get a break. I'm doing everything right. And it's still taking forever. Why the #### are they giving me such a hard time? God I could scream! I send in a certified copy of my marriage cert and they say it's only notarized. If they took 10 seconds of their ###### time to read the goddam paper they'd see CERTIFIED COPY printed on it.

I'm so frustrated. Why can't I catch a ###### break? Why can't I be done with NVC in a month? Why can't I be done with USCIS in less that TEN MONTHS???!!!! Why can't they not #### my life over just one goddamn time???!!!!

So sorry for all the ####### happening to you, I used to sleep like a log and now if I sleep two to three hours a night I'm happy.

2-3 hours of sleep every day!? On a positive note, I guess you have more time to spend on this thread if you only sleep 2-3 hours a night.

It was a total shock even for us. I was hoping that we would make it to the second round of interview schedule for June but luckily things worked out for the better.

Thank You. It was incredible indeed as it was totally unexpected. Thanks again.

Thank You. It is wonderful to see that even while going through the stressful process themselves people here support each other in happy and difficult times.

I hope you have smooth sailing and you are reunited with your loved ones soon . BTW, we love Egypt . We were there on a holiday in Dec 2011-Jan 2012. We had an amazing time in Cairo and Luxor...one of the best holidays.

Oh so happy to know you had an amazing time in Egypt. I felt right at home as soon as I arrived must have been because of my husband but still I loved it also.

Has anyone with a 4/4 NVC received date gotten a case number yet?

[Soloenta 2,218]

Hey guys - what should I do? My wife's address has a "/" in the house number but the online DS-260 doesn't allow it!!!!

Do you mean as in 1/2? I do also and sometimes it accepts one & half lala St Hope that's what you mean.

I had to post my parent's medical experience written by my very witty mother- they had a heck of a time in London but its too funny the way that it is written not to share

Got the 6.20 flight from Aldergrove which was to get into Gatwick at 7.30 but as we reached Gatwick to land ,the plane was up and down like a dogs hind leg trying to land in very dense fog so he announced he was going to Luton instead. We sat on the runway for over an hour waiting for security clearance to leave the plane then the bus ticket we had for London was no good because it was from Gatwick not Luton so eventually we got another one and got into the centre of London around 12.00.

We had planed to meet Tod for lunch but he was held up on the bus from his place so we told him to meet us after the medical and we went to China town for a well earned bit to eat.

The clinic was easy enough to find and they took us promptly chest X ray first then in to see another Doctor for the main medical weight, height, eye test, blood, ears, mouth, boobies, and a check to confirm your female or male in Dads case really lovely guy he was we had a great chat. Oh and a blood test also.

It was a bad day to travel through London traffic was bad with the tubes off and getting back to the airport took some time but it's done now so the final bit is getting closer.

I have spoken to Arthur before...he kind of shouted at me and I was like He also got mad at me because I tried to give him my DOB. Sheesh...he is a hard one to please.

Yup you confirmed it they are siblings. Next time hang up on him and call back. I get either Joy or Arthur and I'm going to hang up on them, I don't need the nastiness they provide.

Finalyyyyy the BILLL and it's payable, but what this mean? Please Saylin, anybody, It's 3 pages, and this one is the first. Did you all receive this?

Dear Sir/Madam:

You have been registered as agent for the immigrant visa petition of XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The Immigrant Visa Processing Fee for each applicant indicated on the enclosed fee bill invoice(s) must be paid

before petition processing can continue. An invoice for each eligible applicant is enclosed.

IMPORTANT: On April 13, 2012 the Department of State reduced the immigrant

visa application processing service fee amount for all immigrant visa petition types.

Please remit payment using this immigrant visa application processing fee bill

invoice which contains the new, reduce fee amount.

Payment Instructions:

1. Do not send fee payments to the National Visa Center's Portsmouth, New Hampshire facility. This

will delay processing of the visa petition.

2. Go to our website immigrantvisas.state.gov and follow the instructions displayed.

Important Notes:

1. If you did not receive a fee bill for any applicant who should be listed on this case, do not send a fee

payment for the applicant. Instead, contact the NVC.

2. If a period of one year passes without communication to the NVC, all documents and fees expire and

must be resubmitted to resume the immigration process.

3. If the applicant intends to adjust status with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS),

please contact the NVC before taking further action or making any payments.

4. Children who pass 21 years of age after the petition was originally approved by the USCIS become

ineligible to accompany or join the applicant(s) immigrating to the United States under the original

petition. In some situations, the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) may allow children to remain

eligible beyond 21 years of age. If you believe that the CSPA applies to this case, please send a

detailed explanation to the NVC. We will forward it to the U.S. Embassy/Consulate for a decision.

Sincerely,

[CanGirl 95]

Can petitioner SIGN and SUMBIT the DS-261???

It says this on top of the sign and submit page...

By clicking “Sign and Submit Form” you are electronically signing the form. You are required to electronically sign your form yourself, unless otherwise exempt by regulation, even if the form has been prepared by someone other than yourself. Your electronic signature certifies that you have read and understood the questions on this form and that your answers are true and correct to the best of your knowledge and belief. The submission of a form containing any false or misleading statements may result in the permanent refusal of a visa or the denial of entry into the United States. All declarations made in this form are unsworn declarations made under penalty of perjury (28 U.S.C. 1746).

I heard everywhere I can but I still want to make sure. And there is an option say if this form was prepared by someone else? Do I say yes? I am the petitioner. Do I say yes to that then fill in the more given questions and send the form in???

I'm trying to call NVC but there busy every time.

So you just click on it and that is the "Sign and Submit" is like a signiture? Sound odd to me.
