March 2018 NOA2 ---> NVC thread

[JayMar2019 2,741]

Okay everyone, here is Reni and I timeline:

 

Medical Exam: April 18th at 8:00 am (Wednesday)

Interview: April 27th at 10:00 am (Friday)

 

Fee paid and DS-160 has been submitted (by Reni) and he has 2 copies of the confirmation page and he also emailed me the confirmation so that I can make additional copies here and bring them with me (I'm OCD so I always believe in the backup to the backup)

 

The interview date MIGHT change only because, the JA Embassy did not allow me to select any dates in May as the calendar was grayed out. Leads me to believe that since we're still in the beginning portion of April, May might not become available until next week, so Reni and I MIGHT change the date to May 4th which is the following Monday and that would be because it would only be 9 days between the medical and interview and although the hospital is right across the street from the Embassy, there's no way in knowing how slow Andrews will be with walking it across the street. In a perfect world, all of this won't matter and it will there because Reni has a clean bill of health and God may give us a break with waiting any longer than necessary since we've waited almost a year to get to this point. I will let you guys know if we change it but worse case scenario, we go to the interview on the 27th and they tell us we're approved contingent on the medical exam and I have to call every day and night to make sure that the medical gets there so they can process the visa. (I'm trying to remain positive that I won't have to do this but....well, you guys already know what I'm gonna say about that, lol).

 

I will be flying down on April 26th to attend the interview (or May 3rd if we change the interview date to May 4th).  Again, in a perfect world, the medical exam will be there and in a SHINIER perfect world, the CO will say that they will expedite processing our visa to allow him to fly back with me. I will probably stay until May 6th if we don't change the date, but if the interview is on May 4th I will have to fly back home early and when he's ready to fly here I will fly back for a quick weekend trip to help him get everything in order so we can fly back together (estimate that would be the weekend of May 20th). I'm hoping and praying things can stay the way they are because May 20th would be 2 days before we filed our fiancé petition a year ago, although I know I gotta find some patience from somewhere.

 

Either way, WE ARE READY TO GO!!!!!

guys - the day has come!!!!!!

 

WE GOT OUR NVC CASE NUMBER (AND INVOICE NUMBER?)

 

after calling now with feeling like #######, i started "if i just hear now the sentence of the 8 weeks, i'd prefer to talk to a supervisor as we are running out of patience" and dear Max said "well i can give you your case number, it's just still at NVC so you can't really do more" ....

i apologised for my little temper of course, as it wasn't his fault that i was so upset! he laughed and said it was ok as he can only imagine how

we feel  

 

so let the fun begin!!!! now i hope it will be in transit shortly and arrive at the embassy so we can move forward! bam bam bam

 

my energy is slowly starting to get back

thanks my dear - i am hoping this 17 day wait won't repeat again! 

is there a way that stuart can call and also ask for a supervisor and see what the issue is? 

so you don't have to worry about it and have more time with your mom and family <3

 

please stay strong! <3 praying for you

[LoganCoates 34]

Hey guys, I have a question or 2.

 

Our NVC case says ready, we went ahead and scheduled our interview and paid our fees already, and she's completed the DS160 but we haven't seen anything about a packet 3 or 4 yet. Is this usual? Did we mess up?

I've already booked flights to be at Interview with her, but we're scared to death we've jumped the gun.

I think it depends on your embassy. Try to look for a forum with your embassy. Usually if you are processed thru papers then you will probably need to wait for the letters. As for electronic group, we usually wait for the email packet 3 and 4. Tho some people already did what you did. It’s a risky move but I think lots of people do it now since embassies do take forever to send the packets.

[Kari & Atti 411]

Atti received a packet by mail today. Unfortunately the packet was open and we don’t know if we are missing anything from it. This packet contained our approved 129f application, spousal abuse information, financial affivadavit blank form and instructions, instructions on how to book medical appointment in Hungarian, list of documents to bring to appointment in English, instructions on police records in Hungarian, information docs needs to show economic solvency (not a public charge) and vaccination requirement. Is this packet 3? Can someone help out with any info 🙏🏻

[Loyal Empress 30]

Can anyone help I'm trying to upload pic on ds160 and it's not letting me what do I do

[Douglas e Maryna 0]

[Loyal Empress 30]
