Just an update

I got a expedite from Kingston embassy. The embassy called e and my wife that our interview is the 18 day at 8 am. The expedite was very quick via email with no evidence. Please pray for me. My wife told nvc that she's lonely and she has her kids. Plus she got a new job and she can't get any leave until her first full year. And he fact that she's depressed from the death of her mom a year ago. From expedite request to getting a date wasn't even two weeks. If u have any reason to request please go ahead. Jamaican embassy is back logged so the expedite might help.

Thanks to callmeshams for everything. You were the one who advised us

Congratulations on your expedite.... I'm sure you are both very excited about this move, just next week is your interview.

All the best!!!

Hi everyone!!

OMG, it has been ages since I've commented on here. :blush: I need to catch up with all you guys!!

I want to comment, that my husband got APPROVED, last Tuesday 11/24/15. :dance: Thank God!

We got our package 3 days after his interview. He will do point of entry until January, since we decided to spend Christmas in Mexico, with our families.

I cannot express how thankful I am for this forum, and the support!!

May God Bless all of you! And wishing you all the best on your journeys. And I hope you guys have wonderful holidays!! (F)(L)

Congratulations on the approval. Very happy that things worked out well for you.

That was a super fast visa issuance for the visa. I mean super fast lol.

Is that typical at that Embassy?

You are welcome. Good to hear the wonderful news. Things starting moving really fast on your end.

All the best with the interview. I hope you have your documents ready so it will be smooth. I want to hear approval, no 221g.
