Just Venting: Slightly Frustrated with Nassau Consulate

[jens_prodigy 13]

So it seems that all the while we were checking the ceac site and seeing "in transit" and waiting patiently to receive packet three was for nothing because they don't do anything at the Nassau embassy until you call. It seems our petition got there on June 26th and has been sitting there ever since with no contact from anyone. When I called first I got no answer so I kept calling. Finally I reached the lady everyone says to contact and she put me on hold for a full ten minutes to go locate it. When she came back she said, "oh yeah , here it is" as if they'd never given it a second thought until I called. I'm wondering, had I never called, how long would it have sat there gathering dust? Wow.I swear these people have no concept of the situation we're in and how badly we want to be with our fiancés. Especially after I got a call at 6:30am from my fiancee who thought she needed to go to the ER and I couldn't be there for her. She had to call her aunt who lives about 45mins away to come get her. Times like this just makes me extra upset and ready for this process to be over so I can start the rest of my life! Sigh

Well, I'm only slightly frustrated but for the most part I'm happy because she said she will email me a checklist by the end of the day and we can get things moving again. It's just been so long in this process that I'm ready to get it all over with and waiting three extra weeks while something just sits on someone's desk is unacceptable. P.S. my case number ends with 001 so I know mine was the only one there or at least the first one there for this month so they should've been moving with it dang-nab-it. LOL . Okay end of rant. Seriously, if your consulate is Nassau, CONTACT THEM IMMEDIATELY and do not wait. Also, don't let them brush you off the phone like they did the first two times I called, keep calling and asking to speak with Ms. Darling and she will help you. Now to wait patiently until she emails ...tick, tock...

FYI, the 001 number does not mean you are the only K-1 they have. It means you are the principal applicant in your case (i.e., the fiance). If you had children, they would have the same NVC case number and end with 002, 003, etc.). Not to say they haven't made you wait unnecessarily -- just wanted to clarify this point.
