Hey Edissa,

I know the wait is frustrating, but like you said it's out of your hands now so all you can really do is pray and wait. It normally goes to Administrative Processing before going to Issued, so it's a good sign that you're visa is almost ready. Sorry you have to experience a delay, but stay encouraged. I'm believing with you that you will make it in time for your wife's birthday and your step child's graduation. :thumbs:

Thank you JASM. It's my upcoming birthday not my wife's lol. Hopefully the status will change to issued this week.

I heard about something called DOS where u can call but do you happen to have a contact number? I may wait until the end of this week and see if there are any changes before I decide to call. Will try to be as patient as I can.

Go to the Jamaica portal and the information Burton should have that info.

Good afternoon everyone.....

First, let me say this...No matter my circumstances good or bad...I always give thanks to God..always. Second, for all, way too many to name but you know who you...thank you from the bottom of my and the hundreds heart for being such a support throughout this process. I have personally made connections with other VJers that have truly kept me laughing and encouraged through this process...Okay now to what you really want to know...

My husband left this morning at around 4:45am JA time for the Kingston Embassy for his 7:00am. interview. I know this because he called and woke me up...I covered him and the taxi driver in prayer and they were on their way.

At approx. 9:39am EST my husband called and said..."it was easy..." He ran through the logistics of clearing security, biometrics and document submission. He said he then wanted for his name to be called and he went up to the window. The very first person in his group to be interviewed. So here is his line of questioning:

1. Who's filing for you? Response, my wife

2. What's her name? He responded

3. Where do you work? He responded

4. Tell me about your wife. He responded

5. Where does your wife live? He responded. CO said he never heard of that part of Georgia...(h*** neither have I until I moved here).

6. Where did you get married?

7. Who put together your package? He responded, my wife. CO said, "she did an excellent job and this package was nicely done."

So, now here is where it gets sticky...my husband said he said, ""IF" it's APPROVED You can pick your visa up at DHL." So me now being the investigator I am said...what do you mean "IF"...did you get your passport back? No they kept it...so for 6 he's I have been researching and trying to figure out WTH. My husband called me back about 2 hours ago (we just got off the phone)...and I made him (yes made him) walk me through the entire process starting from the time he got out of the car. So he gets to the part again...and he's saying to himself "IF its a" "IT'S APPROVED"..and I said what did he say...then said.."no babes, no got nervous and mi mash up what him said..Mi 100% sure him seh, "IT'S APPROVED".." Babes.."IT'S APPROVED"...

SO.."IT'S APPROVED"...now watch for world news for headline story about a deranged wife who purchased a ticket to Jamaica; Who went solely to kicked her husband's a**! I don't need my squad...I got this one...

Sending cyber hugs and a million kisses to all..and a big fat wet kiss for my super duper special VJers (you know who you are).

Abundant prayers and blessing for those with upcoming interviews and those awaiting to be scheduled.

That's great news!!! As I was reading this all I kept thinking was, "Oh Lord, she's going to need to be locked up in a white padded room!" but alas he's approved!!! Congratulations! how long before he gets visa in hand?

Hahaha...thanks LinJoe (cliffhanger it was, right?). My benchmark for a issue date is Edissa508 and Al&Deidre..as they had interviews before us, I can gage how long it will take. I believe that time varies but the high watermark is roughly 2 weeks, assuming no issues (like the Embassy slows down).
