For stress relief, take a look (if you dare) at the end of the immigration process:

This ^^ this is why I’m doing this... I want to be together with my person and go to bed and these questions or anything else to be my worry...(and thanks MrsTB for the idea for pocket money through the process 🤔—there’s 100 questions... that’s a lot of shoes....)

 

 

 

annnd I used up all my laughs (reactions) today so I go to bed!  Need to wake up to finally catch my medical reservation!

It helps to build perspective if one becomes familiar with all upcoming steps of the entire process.

Encouraging profligate spousal spending!  Bad BAD Naes!

I took the test (without studying) and was mortified to get only 98 correct.  Mrs. T-B., however...

Congratulations on your progress, finally.

Hi everyone! Does enyone from Ukraine who is done with the process know if we have to wait until the embassy sends us the Packet 3 before scheduling the interview or should we do it once we get the "Ready" status?

Have you read the Embassy Info & Reviews for Ukraine (links atop any VJ page)?

Try surfing the Russia/Ukraine/Belarus regional forum for the answer, too.

 Hi, guys, because when I call NVC I do not have option 1 and 7, it just gives me the option to choose the language, someone does the same thing? 😓😥

Same as me!! It's not nice at all, hang in there, NVC better get their act together quick!

 

There's definitely something gone wrong with their system!! Just spoke to Lynn she was very nice and apologetic and very confused why this would happen.

I just called back and was told I always had to press #5 now.  They said they received my case today (even though I had been told before that it was received on the 25th) and that they're working on assigning a case number.  Hopefully that means they're actively working on it!

Hey @Naes congratulations on getting your number and I hope everything goes smoothly from here on out for you!! I have a quick question for you.

Have you ever heard of anyone getting there case number and it comes up as invalid? I got my case number and I looked it up, said invalid, called back up to confirm it and it was correct.... Does it take a while to go into the system or something? 

[streanor 405]

FINALLY I got answers!! 

Same thing as @reblem14 and @Kat123. After 5 calls being told there must have been a mistake they haven't received it I was told my file is on the electronic system and to call back to extension 5. Called extension 5 and was told my case was received today, the 27th.. SO WEIRD but I'm relieved they really do have it.

 

Thanks so much for your encouragement @Naes and @Kswtangel through my meltdown today, I'm exhausted from it.. now I need a drink

That’s great news!!  I don’t know what their deal is over there but they need to stop playing with our emotions already.  I’m still waiting for my case number to show up on CEAC.    I’m sorry you had to deal with that added stress sweetie, but I’m so glad it’s sorted now.   A drink sounds great right about now!  I’m thinking I will make some pina coladas.  Everyone’s invited!    Lol

@AnthonyJ, there are a number of us that this is happening to, myself included, so rest assured that you’re not alone.  I received my case number yesterday and then even received emails from NVC with my case information.  A second email from them came through a little later to notify me that the London Embassy accepted our request for expedited processing. (The expedited processing email is not anything special as all K1 visas are considered expedited, just in case you were wondering).  Even after all of that, my case number is still coming up invalid, even now.  We must assume that this is either a temporary system issue or that it just takes a while for all of our information to be uploaded to the system. I will keep checking throughout the day and even through the weekend.  I know NVC doesn’t work weekends but I would think that system updates might run automatically.  Further to that, I can’t bring myself to twiddle my thumbs and wait until Monday to check again.

Thanks for this I really appreciate it! Also am I on the right page?
