Congratulations Abhatia, I have been checking your case all the way since its second scan date was closer to mine. I was very frustrated to see my case not completed ever since August first scan date. Have you receive your interview date yet? Im just curious and I dont want to keep my hopes up too high since my husband was told that my embassy in South Africa is overloaded and wont have any interview till next month.

Man.......this is such a torture for our marriages. I am very happy for you.

Sorry, BTW mine is CC too October 17th 2016 :ot2:

I would like to thank everyone for all the inputs given with my NVC journey. I am really overwhelmed with joy having a case complete for only 20 days after scan date just got off the phone with NVC to confirm :dancing: . Indeed miracles do happen and God's timing is perfect. I hope to see more case complete VJers to celebrate with! God bless!

Oh, Im sorry that she has to go through surgery just for the very beginning of your reunion. I and my family will be praying for you and your other half to remain very strong and for speed recovery too. In advance, feel our hugs in distance even thought we don't know each other personally. VJ has made us a family. May God grant you miracle to have your interview as soon as possible.

Be strong for her,

Monika, Tom & Elizabeth Burt

Finally!!!!!!!!! A happy mother is here to announce the IR-1 Case Complete for herself :) :) :)

Since our scan date of August 1st, our daughter's case got completed on August 30th. I got a checklist August 30th for wrong date on my AOS and my second scan date was September 2nd.

Last night my hubby called me after he just confirmed with NVC that my case was complete too. This morning I checked my ceac and saw 3 N/As as well :dancing::dancing:

Does it really has to take this long for CC? Sad news is, we are not going to get interview date until November since South Africa is overloaded already. I am praying that we will get our interview beginning of December so that we could go home for Christmas. I havent seen my husband for ONE YEAR and THREE MONTHS now.

YEP!!!!! YEP!!!!! ------------------- CASE COMPLETE --------------------YEP!!!!! YEP!!!!!

Good luck to everyone,

such a great news! congrates!!
