Just to update you all. I had to go back to the London embassy today because they couldn't get my electronic signature on Monday because of a computer glitch. Wasn't happy at all. Got there early and thought they were not going to let me in. Cue tears, panic and calling the missus. But they did. Saw a different CO from Monday who took my prints again and apologised for the inconvenience. Told me they took them electronically to make sure I was a good guy and not a bad guy. I asked could I wait in the embassy until it showed AP and he said take a seat, we'll print it now and it'll be ready in 20 mins. I was in shock. When I was called back, the interviewing CO from Monday was there and told me she had asked if she could give it to me as I was so lovely and so happy when she told me I was approved that I made her day. I'm now in Oxford St. with the Crown Jewels in a Marks and Spencer carrier bag because it's too big to fit in my laptop bag and I'm terrified of bending it or leaving it somewhere. So happy right now I could cry. And it's the first time in my life I've ever been described as lovely

awwww isn't that sweet. WOW printed right there. Congratulations. That's like when I had to get emergency passport in Nigeria printed right there so cool. We love our embassy.

I am so sorry to hear about your experience.

I can see 2 red flags in your situation (even though I am no expert in this). Age difference and your wife's ex-boyfriend. So they might be doing investigation on the legitimacy of your married relationship with your wife and how genuine it is.

By the way, I am curious how did they find out about your wife's ex-boyfriend. I can understand fiance or husband but boyfriend?????????? Did you mention somewhere on the forms?

Hey everybody,

Just a quick question. We are still awaiting the full 60 days for the NVC to finish our case (Should be, according to the 60 days thing, in mid-December), however I was wondering if anyone has an idea if we'll have our interview date in early January? It would be best for us to get back before January 20th, and we're definitely hopeful that we can have our interview scheduled before then and be able to travel before then. Any idea on what to expect from the case being completed, interview date scheduled and the actual interview? Hoping for a quick finish to ours!!

Thanks everybody!!

Jamie and Tamara.

[mdzcpa 58]

Did you call NVC? to see if they are still scheduline for December you may get end of December. I got cc on 10.31.14 Interview date on 11.12.14 and they were closed for two days which I think that was the delay

but, if you call they will let you know.

Really? I will call today!! I'm going to be visiting the 24th through January 2. That would awesome if they squeezed us in!!

I didn't actually realise right away they printed your visa for you there and then, I thought it was some kind of print out to confirm you were in AP. Then I read it a couple more times, saw about the "crown jewels" and put two and two together XD

That was actually pretty amazing of them to realise they had inconvenienced you and to go above and beyond to rectify it like that. A lot of the time when things like that happen, they tend to shrug their shoulders and go into pen-pusher mode, but I'm seriously impressed and so happy for you that it all turned out okay.

no we didnt mention anywhere ..but i think thats where my wife was living before marriage .. and may be they investigated and found it or somthing .. but bro .. what about they didnt give me any sheet ?

Thank you, me too. I should probably put my experience up on the consulate review page in case it should happen to someone else in the future. I think I might have influenced him a little by saying I was worried about taking another day off work because that might influence my references

Hello all. Checking in on the Interview thread.

Case Complete on November 14. Waiting for email confirmation and interview date in Santo Domingo. I'm hoping for January.

I see some of my mates here from the November 2013 I-130 thread. I'm glad to see folks moving along now. We had an AOS checklist and that set us back 60 days, but it feels good we are moving to the interview stage.

Congratulations. Welcome to the group. I have added you to the spreadsheet.

Interview scheduling I am estimating because of next weeks short week will more than likely start Dec1.
