You were allowed to even do that? The Indonesia Embassay says that you cannot do the medical until the NVC letter comes bc you need that number (not WAC but cannot remember). It would be nice to get it done during all this waiting. Regardless, sorry you have to do it again.

Yes, I knew what dr to go to,but I wasn’t aware of expiration date on the medical sadly.. 6 months from the dr is sending the paperwork to the embassy.. if you took the medical 2 months before the interview and get approved.. you don’t have 6 months after approval but merely 4 months as that is the time the medical runs out.

What do you mean by Title please?

I know the fact that we have varicella waiver is causing a problem at AOS stage for some. I’m in the road at the moment but will post the thread about it when I locate it.

I think they meant to say “titers” which are a blood draw that checks for immunity

My bad, I got a Knightsbridge medical issue at AOS muddled up with a varicella enquiryi made with an April filer.. but just so all Uk beneficiaries know, this is what you get at Knightsbridge

Well, tough question. It depends greatly on the work tonight, and also if they work Saturday. Lets wait for this work, I should be able to "guesstimate" little better.

 

As of right now, if they kept going hard at 5th and started on 6th today, we can expect Wednesday to be our ice breaking day. However, all indications are that they will start June 12th before us, or at least at the same time. So next Friday would be the most likely day, and serious action at that. Again, please wait for the "finals" today, and hope and pray for some action tomorrow, even it is 40-50 cases.

But please let me be clear, my opinion is that they have already done better part of our day, and our week, and they are on to the next one, however not updated online yet. I believe by the end of next week we will be hearing about June cases that got approved and received NOA2 through the mail, and not updated online.

Thanks - will wait patiently for the final scans today and will pray for the weekend.

 

-Why do you believe they’re going to start 6/12 before 6/9? What’s the precedent?

-I’m not so sure that there’s going to be a full workforce working next Friday.. is that included in your consideration?

- I wrote at length about the precedent, sometimes during this week. I will do it again most likely on Sunday (only day I don't work). They have these "number zones", where they have to get certain days under certain number. Please look through my posts, you will find it. Same reason why they cleared 3rd week of May this week, and they did it all in one day. Same reason why they virtually skipped June 1st and 2nd, and went over to 5th. As I wrote in one other post, there were a hand full of days with 250+, and June 5th and 6th are two of those days. Next such day is June 12th with 285, and that is the second highest day in May+June combined. Remainder of that entire week has 450+ cases in 4 days combined.

 

- yes I considered "mild" Friday.

This week on May topic we had 10+ such cases, NOA2 received, but not updated. All of the physical correspondence was at least 10 days to 14 days old. Today we had one of the more bizarre cases, where the NOA2 is dated 11th which was Veterans Day - holiday. Either way, a week old approval, for May 23rd filer, at the date when scans were showing work done 5 days into the May 30th and 31st. Easy math, just take 5 to 10 days from May 5th, and there you have it.

 

NOTE: this has been happening for last 30+ days, I have followed religiously, because to make a mistake once would be ok, but many many for a small percentage group (forum vs all), is a pattern. April has maybe couple of cases, although I think they have cleared out completely, and the scans show 800 cases untouched. If forum makes 10% of the filers, and none are left, they never updated many.
