You're so welcome! :) It was our pleasure. Not sure what you would have done without the special attention you received from @chamma and @PP_2016. They were so patient with your many questions. Sure all that dialogue will be helpful to future vj'ers. Glad it all worked out for you and your hubby. :) 

 

Thank you for your review and for already adding it to the following link. Best wishes to your future and wishing you a successful POE. :)

Hahaha you never seem to forget to remind that I asked too many questions. The whole purpose of this site isn't it?

I usually fly klm/delta with my doggie. They're the most pet friendly in my opinion. I fly from Bucharest to Amsterdam (4 h layover for a potty break and a good walk) and then Amsterdam to Atlanta. I usually have absorbant potty pads with me and take then with me in the bathroom onboard and my dog goes there if he has to. 

 

Does Delta not fly out from London to NY?

Ours is a kitty.  My renegade husband decided he would acquire one last month out of the blue knowing he would be moving lol

 

I've looked at everything from British Airways, Air France, United, Delta, Swiss, Brussels, KLM, Thomas Cook, American Airlines, Virgin, + more. 

 

Sadly, for Delta...:(

Awww!! That's too bad they don't accept pets from the UK. Try KLM, they are very pet friendly and they allow pets on transatlantic flights.

You'll get it soon, def seems like they've got their new set of dates. ;) When is the last time you called? 

I called two nights ago. The rep told me that they "schedule at the beginning of the month and I should look for my date in september" >.>' Sounded like a candid response, but it made me super sad.

Wow, your embassy must be busy. I'm so sorry you're having to wait so long. I wonder if your visa type matters in how they schedule?

Congrats to the new CCs!!  Since we have cases on our spreadsheet that have received their August interview dates. We can assume that the following countries have released their August interview dates. If you've recently received your CC letter (letter saying that your case is now ready to be scheduled for an interview) , and see your country below, I suggest calling the NVC to see if they have your interview date. If you do not see your country below and are still waiting for it, sort the spreadsheet by country, and see when they received their interview notification.. It could be that your country releases their dates closer to the 15th of every month. Click here for instructions on how to sort the spreadsheet.  (the sort instructions are located on the blue tab on our spreadsheet)

@KaurN , @PP_2016 and all couples who recently got approved:

 

Did the embassy ask for a copy of your i864 (affidavit of support) forms? And if they did, did the copies had any signatures?


My i864 copy doesn't have any signatures and the person who helped us with the files mentioned there's no need for the signature on the i864 copy as the ones we sent to NVC had the signatures and they were cleared by NVC so no issues. They say embassy won't even ask for the copies of i864, its jsut for personal record. Is this correct?

 

My interview is on the 25th july

 

@vintash @Adorable @Ahmed & Amy @justwaiting17  please answer this as we're worried we might be facing delays if anything is incomplete. 

In my experience they did ask for it but then she said it was exactly the same as the one she had which was provided from the nvc and she didn't need the copy I brought. I can't remember if it had a signature but I'm am not home till late tonight to check. Hope I helped. I'm going to post my review tonight.
