No news Today?

With NVC closed for the past couple days,(not opening until midnight) and so many busy Thanksgiving plans, it's gone quiet for a bit.

I think NVC will get in the swing with some January appointments next week.

Please let me know how long it takes to get back the passport from Simon center? Status showed issued in ceac.

Hello guys can anyone help me to get FaceTime history records please??

Face time means time you actually spent together. My husband and I refer to it as "3D Time" :-P

So I assume you mean that, and not just time you spent in front of cams on Skype or messenger. Your 3D time is proven through scans of your plane tickets, your itinerary, the visa stamps in your passports, receipts for hotels and a lot of photos,

if you're talking about video cam time. copy the records that list the time and the duration of video calls. Screen shots of the call records works well. You can print 3 or 4 screen shots per page.

Usman, it took my spouse's Green Card a little over two months to arrive. I was not aware of any method of actually tracking the progress.

Good luck to you! Hopefully it will come in the next 2-3 weeks!
