July 2014 Interviews

[dwheels76 5,468]

Sweet God in heaven I went out of town one day we were on page 13 I come back we are on page 19. Let me catch up.

Hope all is well.

You know that would be one of the most boring game evers considering 99% of the time spent from start to end is waiting. the other 0.5% is on hold at NVC and 0.5% is actually doing stuff.

lol

You would have traps and animals that eat bad people (CO's, USCIS, NVC) maybe a sacrifice or two to the volcano God's. Game of Life meets, Survivor. Spice it up come on now.

The phone just rang. She gave the news I was waiting to hear. Visa approved. The interview itself was only about 2 minutes:

a. Who is calling you?

b. Love or arranaged marriage?

c. What does your husband do?

That's pretty much it.

The total time inside the consulate was less than 2 hours.

A huge thank you to everyone here at VJ. You have been like my very supportive family for almost the past year.

In particular I will be remiss if I do not mention Saylin, Kaylara, DWheels. You guys are awesome in everyway.

Awwww bkghosh. Tears. Stop it now. I am at work. The longgggggggggg wait is over. I am just thrilled for you. Oh happy day (all be it 2 days later sorry I am late to the party).

I just want to share my interview experience today! The immigration officer checked all my submitted documents and he said I think you are good. Then he asked me, "When and how did you meet your husband and where did you get married?" After I answered he said, ok we will send your visa within 2 weeks. I was like, "Sir I just want to clarify, is my visa approved?" He said, "Yes! We got everything we need and you submitted the complete documents!" I said, "Thank you sir!" and I left. Lol...

Visa Approved!!!! Yaaaaayyyy!!!! I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone here in VJ! Y'all are awesome! Thank you everyone for all the help and assistance! Special thanks to Saylin and Dwheels76!

Huge Congratulations to those who got case complete and those who got visa approvals!

Look at all this awesome good news. This is great. Congratulations.

Love coming back after being away and seeing this joy and happiness. We are a good group of wonderful people. We could cure the world with just the joy and goodness we share daily here.

I like me some us (real good American English. hehe )

When does the CEAC update status from 'in NVC' to 'In Transit' ?

Is it after they send it to DHL or before that?

I have seen two packages with June 4 and June 5 to Mumbai,India but CEAC page shows 'in NVC'

I think when they actually send it to the shipping dock and DHL picks it up!

[dwheels76 5,468]

My Status changed to In Transit today. I tried using the DHL tracking thing and found no results. Can any one help?

In Transit means it left NVC usually takes a day or two to show up in the tracker cuz they all go out of Boston.

we still don't have cc letter , I just have recvd a letter about an hour ago from NVC that we need to send them DS260 which we "already did".. frustrating because I have an airline ticket already for july

Did they tell you you had case complete though? Just do what they need or call and talk to a supervisor to see what the issue says. Does the website status say your DS-260 is incomplete?

[dwheels76 5,468]

Thanks everyone for congratulating me. I feel like I am still dreaming. Only once i get the passport back with the visa stamp inside I think then I can just sit and relax. Have been checking the CEAC site constantly for progress. It showed as Administrative processing till yesterday and today it got changed to ISSUED. Visa printed. Hopefully will get my passport shortly. Cant wait to see how it looks like with my name on it. Got the best gift for my first year wedding anniversary which was a day before my interview.

June interview thread has been locked i believe so had to use this thread just incase if someone is wondering why i am here.

PS. somebody requested to share the interview experience, so check my timeline.its been updated. Goodluck to everyone.

We are doing a new thing with the interview thread since we are moving forward we want the people from previous threads to join us that way we can all share in the good news. Usually only the people in previous thread know you post.

Happy for you Elsy & Mark Great news.

[dwheels76 5,468]

We are just going through our interview letter now.. And what our lawyer said, and making our folder.

can you believe it!!! The NVC letter .. For passport gives the code Y which says "the NVC sent this form or document to the us embassy or consulate"

WHAT! Lol imagine some poor sod actually following their letter and NOT taking the passport. EEK! Makes me worried there is other stuff wrong on our interview letter now. hopefully my lawyers advice is correct.

That's pertaining to the biographical pages of the passport they refer to which is correct. But I get you. The wording USCIS, NVC is in much need of updating.

Since theyre mailing these does it mean NVC is done scheduling interviews for July?

[dwheels76 5,468]

Not necessarily. Every embassy sends in batches when they have a bundle. Remember there are K1's in there also. That's why this tracking really is a guesstimate.

[bkghosh 121]

Sweet God in heaven I went out of town one day we were on page 13 I come back we are on page 19. Let me catch up.

Hope all is well.

You can't leave town. You are not supposed to. That is not in your 'contract'.

Awwww bkghosh. Tears. Stop it now. I am at work. The longgggggggggg wait is over. I am just thrilled for you. Oh happy day (all be it 2 days later sorry I am late to the party).

Thank you and a big hug.

Once CEAC status changes to ISSUED, how long does the passport usually take to arrive at the DHL in the same city?

[bdrew612 1,071]

In Transit means it left NVC usually takes a day or two to show up in the tracker cuz they all go out of Boston.

Hello there! I'm just poking my head in here briefly (reeeeeeeeeeeeally hoping to be in this thread soon)! Question about this, from your experience with this thread, how often are the batches shipped out? Is it typically weekly, or when each 'round' is completed? I'm banking on an August interview, but part of me is hoping I squeak by and jump on the July train before it takes off! Thanks so much for all that you do!!! :-D

my interview was scheduled on 29-May and my file shipped out 04-Jun.

I called NVC and asked the operator for a tracking # but she said that NVC does not give up that info because several files are sent together.

So I guess they schedule and ship files out in waves.

So hopefully you will get in the 2nd wave of interview scheduling.

Good luck to all waiting!!!!!!!
