So very slow on Thursdays and Fridays :(

Yes and it was slow yesterday also. just when you start to feel some hope that things are speeding up it slows down agian. You would think with the new procedures on how they are reviewing packages that we would be seeing more progress. To top things of monday is a holiday so they will not review again till Tuesday. Oh well such is life. Aside of changeing how they are reviewing packages, which just made my wait time longer. I still don't know what they are doing to try to catch up. When you ask all they say is " they are trying very hard to catch up". So frustrating.

Soloenta, I am sorry to hear about your situation.

I hope everything gets solved as soon as possible.

I found out current NVC director´s email address (I copied him when I sent my complaint letter to the American Ambassador to Madrid).

You can try to write him. Maybe it can work. Send me a private message and I will reply to you with it.

The Ambassador to Madrid showed his sympathy to us and committed to expedite my interview date when the process at NVC stage is over. It is all we got. Less is nothing.

Hang in there!!

Message sent, OMG thank you! I feel I have a glimmer of hope! Bless you may God rewards you for this generous act of kindness. :)

So the Director of NVC never responded to you? Just don't want to get my hopes up. (L) (L) Thank you :)

This picture describes my mood exactly lol :) . I have a baby cat a British short hair and he is the love of my life !

Oh they are so beautiful hahaaa I love the picture. I think cats do much better than dogs so on flights over seas. I'm so happy your taking him with you. You have no idea how many people just dump their pets for any reason at all. No way I was going to leave my babies even if that meant leaving my luggage. :D(L)

Awww Soloenta thank you so much, that really made my day :D

t5063.gif Well the proof is in the pudding and my eyes don't lie. :D

Have you tried telling him how you feel? I'm not saying that you should but if it were me, I would mention how his attitude is making me feel and how unfair I am being treated. At the end of the day, BOTH of you are going through this process, not just him. Your feelings matter too.

I agree communication is key, but then some men are like that depending how mommy brought them up. Still think he loves her just has a funny way of showing it. :D (L)But I agree with you 100%!

So very slow on Thursdays and Fridays :(

I agree, I hate it when it's like this but a lot of people are happy with their CC and interview dates so that's wonderful. :)(L)

Ugh. On Monday I called the NVC and they said that my AOS packet was approved on 10/2. Woohoo!

So today I got what I thought was a false checklist for my AOS packet, but I called to make sure. Yvette said that it was not a false checklist. It says that I didn't include the proper number in line 19, and that I needed to resubmit I-864EZ with the right number (total income). I looked at my 1040 and my tax transcripts and I did report the correct number (Line 22 on 1040 and "Total Income" on my tax transcripts! She even looked at it and said that the number I was reading was correct. They are wrong!

...however, she said a supervisor would need to review it, and that would take 42 days! Are you kidding me???? And then, of course, after the supervisor review, if they still thought I was wrong, I would have to send in another I-864EZ for them to review if I made a mistake.

Please directly speak with a supervisor and request them to review it. These reps always give a different story. Just call back and ask to speak with a supervisor.

I received another email today from the NVC with the AOS fee! Very happy to see this BUT the AOS is still locked. I can't remember how long it takes for the AOS to be unlocked after you receive the email but i really hope it's by tomorrow so i can pay right away!

Congratulations on the progress. Your fee should be unlocked any moment.

The reviewer must be a new staff or has sight problem to see that you filled the correct line. Call and demand to speak with a supervisor. Supervisor review is usually a couple of days to weeks. Mine took 3 business days.

I don't think i would settle for that. If the mistake is theres they should correct it immediately. I would call and demand to speak to a supervisor to get a review of this.
