I have a program that I run that scans all of July numbers. It is the same thing as going to the link I post with the scans, except mine is automated and dumps it in an excel file. I then go through it and sort it out, organize it, and post it.

You can download an app on the app store that lets you type in your WAC number to see who around you is getting approved. It does the same exact thing that his program does. They cannot post the WAC numbers on the website for you.

Thanks for answering as I got busy, but as @Jaquelly said the app will let you scan 500 numbers, so just pick out a number before yours and scan from there. That way you will know any action before and after yours.

Hey fellow July filers...stopping in to vent/commiserate for a minute. I'm feeling really impatient and frustrated at the moment. Our case is Ready at Mumbai--that part happened pretty darn quickly! But since then, things have been going much slower than I'd like them to. And it feels like for every day that we delay a particular step, the next available K1 interview is pushed out 2-3 weeks. :( 

 

The immigration attorney's less-than-speedy responses to emails, the delays in getting my fiance's birth certificate (don't even get me started), the holiday of Holi happening tomorrow and shutting things down, and then something like a WEEK to get funds from the bank to confirm the $265 visa fees... all of this is really wearing on me. And I read on here this morning that the earliest available appointment in Mumbai is currently around mid-May. :clock::cry: Our petition will have passed its 4-month mark by then! Meanwhile, people who got their NOA2 just a week before us have already had their interview and gotten approved. I'm happy for them, but I wish we weren't subject to so many delays ourselves. :( I don't think I'll want to work with a lawyer when we remove conditions, it's just too slow and our case isn't even complicated.

 

On top of it all, I have to plan a wedding that could occur sometime between...oh, I don't know, late March (if you're my optimistic fiance) and June or later??? And people, especially in India, keep asking when the wedding will be, and I feel like we're being judged for being engaged for 9 months and counting. We may even hit the 1-year mark if this keeps up. 

 

I was doing pretty well with this process up until now. USCIS takes 5-6 months to give NOA2? No worries, I'll just wait patiently. Now a small delay by any one of many parties trickles down to create a large delay for our interview and as a result, our wedding? Nope! I can't handle this!  It all feels like too much right now and I just want to be DONE with this part of the process. :cry: I know there are others on here who have been waiting longer, and I mean no disrespect to you, I'm just struggling with this a lot personally right now.

i understand your frustration! 

a friend here from a previous month had something similar, and she booked the late appointment but kept keeping an eye open for the

cancelled appointments and was able to sneak in something like 2 weeks from the day she searched! so it all worked out great.

 

i recommend to keep checking for a canelled appointment that will pop up

Hey, no worries, that is what we are all on here for. To vent, complain, share joy, have breakdowns, build one another up, and build a solid foundation to stand on that will give them the strength to get through the tough times caused by this process.

Think positive, I'm sure it will work out for you and your loved one, and remember a year from now you will be laughing together about this whole process.

Keep the Faith, You got this!

It's possible to book a later date but then switch it if an earlier one comes up?? :blink: Well that gives me a little more hope! :) I hope that can be done for booking appointments in India, too.

We’re all struggling here and this whole process sucks, but at least we found the one!!! And hey, your NOA2 took 5-6 months, well mine looks like it will take 8 months, because we’re already at 220 days and nothing, plus interviews in Brazil are already being scheduled for April, so it’s not going to be fast here either :(
