No. my fiance is still waiting for his :(

As are we. Final approval last week, but due to the State Department's BS we must wait ... AGAIN ... as if this process hasn't been bad enough. lol

We are a part of the backlog, so I suppose that's something; yeah I dunno. Whichever. They stated that roughly have of the posts have been restored, but they don't say which ones, so there's no way to know where we are ... as usual.

Anyway........

5/8/15 - Arrived at the NVC (9 days)

5/13/15 - Left the NVC (5 days)

It must be so frustrating being so close especially when you are in a time crunch! Are you headed back soon or do you think you'll make it in time for Elena to pick her visa up?

Hey hey guys! Sorry I've been so Mia lately.

Here's some news on my case lol.

As many of you know I started off my case from trinidad, in the mean while moved to germany, and transfered my information to frankfurt embassy. Nvc still sent my case to trinidad and trinidad is waiting for frankfurt to get in contact with them so they can ship my case off to Frankfurt embassy. -_-;

It took about 3 weeks for nvc to ship my case off. :3

Hey Sandra, yeah beyond frustrating. As if we September filers haven't been through enough. TSC filers in general for that matter. Then this BS.

I have a hard cutoff date of when I need to leave in order to remain on good terms at work. I will not stay beyond that point, visa-in-passport or not. Unfortunately. So we'll just have to wait and see. I thought we would have returned by now, but wouldn't ya know it? The friggin embassy in Moscow made me wait longer than most other folk too! 'Is what it is.

How are y'all doing? I've got lots of empathy for the folk still waiting, mewbear, etc. Unbelievable that.

Hello. I am filling the ds 160 and I am not sure about the question. "Has anyone ever filled an immigrant petition on your behalf with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services? Should I answer yes because it is a k1 visa or no. Please help me out

That would be a no unless you've submitted K1 or CR/IR1 in the past. If this is your first immigrant petition, then it's a no.

Nvc got my case in 5 working days, I called and got case number in 7 working days. Glad to see your out of TSC.

I heard if your 129 expires They will extend 4 months with new intent to marry from petitioner.
