Today was root canal day for me. I had a run in with a crappy dentist three weeks ago, who sent me to the ER after drilling into my sinus and pouring bleach into it. Today I had a specialist go in and

Haha. It's comparable the energy that goes into understanding these people's thought process.

Congrats! Two weeks sounds just about right. From what I've read on other forums, most embassies usually issue in two weeks 

Our embassy said 10 days. We were hoping about 5 or 6 days. 

 

We received a text text yesterday and are waiting for our taxi now to go pickup the Visas. Interview was 10:00 Monday and our text to pickup was in the afternoon on Wednesday. Only 2 days later.

Take it with a grain of salt....completely different embassies.....

In Algiers it is the DS 160 receipt....from what I have learned there is no appointment letter sent in Algeria......

Did you guys get a packet 3 or 4?

Packet 4. I've heard from other Indian beneficiaries that they send an email.

Oh. My. Goodness!!!! :jest:

 

READY!! :wub:

 

I was completely surprised! I didn't think it would be "ready" until some time next week! The only thing we have to wait for now is his birth certificate. Getting that done has taken as long as the damn visa :wacko:

Once you pass NOA2, it is amazing how much less stress is involved. I know is not the way for everyone. But if you have thoroughly done your due diligence, the rest is all down hill. 

 

We just returned from picking up Wendy's Visa. I think many immigrants who have distrust in their government will find more comfort in ours. It was precious to see Wendy's eyes water when they handed her the Visa. 

 

To those still waiting, may I make a suggestion? Don't let your Fiancé go through the interview process without you. One, they need your strength, courage and support. Two, this is such an incredible event in everyone's life. Like the birth of a child, who do they have to be there beside them to celebrate the joy of success or the unfortunate event of a decline.

 

May GOD BLESS our fellow VJ's as you finish the race!

 

Wayne y Wendy

Hello again my fellow UK Filers.  I think I did something wrong.  We followed the link from the London Embassy's website to fill out the DS160.  We completed it, signed it, and then got to the confirmation page but I didn't see anywhere to pay the fee for the DS160.  Do we have to pay a fee for it and if so, any idea where I might have messed it up?

There is no ds160 fee. You pay the fee when you schedule the interview. You need the AA number from the ds160 to schedule the interview. The fee is 265 usd.

After almost 8 months and an absolutely crazy last 24 hours my fiancée has his interview tomorrow! We were originally scheduled for Sept 4th but we contacted the embassy asked to be put on the waitlist for a closer interview date and contacted our congressman. After 10 business days of waiting for a response form the embassy our congressman sent a follow up email Wednesday at 10am. Wednesday at 4:50pm a call came that the embassy had an opening for Friday!

 

My fiancée has yet to get his medical done so we were feeling a bit down because it was obvious there was no way to get it done with less than 48 hours. Congressman messaged the embassy saying we didn't have the medical done yet but that we would try to get it done for Friday. Embassy messages back saying it's not a big deal, come to the interview and drop off the medical once you receive it! 

 

We are on our way! Fiancée is on his way to Santiago now for the interview tomorrow! We are so excited and hoping that everything turns out smoothly!

Interview has been scheduled!!!  It's a little later than I was hoping due to being restricted by the days my fiance has off of work and the 5 business day waiting period required for the medical documents to reach the embassy.  I'll be checking the site to see if I can move the interview up but glad that now all of the paperwork/scheduling is all done.
