This is one experience that has aged me beyond belief. Ater waiting since 11/1/06 for an interview date we finally have a date of 2/27/07. Am I happy?

I have mixed feelings since I decided to go to Jamaica after a year of not seeing my husband. I have paid for a hotel, taken leave from work, booked a flight for 2/7 -2/23/07.

Now :dance::angry::crying::blink:

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!

:dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

It'll probably cost you $150 to change the return date -- not too bad -- I imagine the biggest problem is that you must commit to a return date before the interview.

Good luck!!!!

Thank you all!

Yes, I am now in process of extending leave from work, extending hotel reservation, requesting a flight change so that I can attend the interview. This is a good thing yes :wacko: . He will more than likely come later since the actual receipt of the visa will be unknown. At least he will be here, hopefully in March.

Good luck girl and best wishes on the interveiw.

Why you waite so long for an appointment???? srry to butt in your business.

Darlene: Susanwill is gonna have hers on the 1st of February.

I do not wish to share any information about this dead end journey.........I have reached my final destination on this train, and it is time for me to get off.

THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"If marriage means you fell in love, does divorce mean you climbed out?"

"You never really know a man until you have divorced him."-Zsa Zsa Gabor

"When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife." Deuteronomy 24:1-2

"When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us." - Helen Keller

"Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?" - Mary Manin Morrissey

"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." - Mother Theresa

Hi, Thanks, the waiting period wasn't my idea :crying: The Embassey has had the I29F since September. I think they must think I'm an enemy of Jamaica. This should have been over! :angry: The 129F expired 1/5/07. And I have bombarded them with calls and email to no avail since September.
