Well, as an update, Kristina flew in Saturday evening, no problems. She received passport in hand Friday, flew in the next day. The flight was rough, it was her first ever, but all in all not too bad.

 Congratulations to the two of you! I just made my call as well, it finished about five minutes ago but no good news today, maybe tomorrow 🙂

 

The entire call from start to finish only lasted six minutes, I was amazed

So...

Since I just got my NVC case number we are ready to do everything except an appointment for the Embassy. My question to the Ukrainian guys on here do you think its possible to finish all the things in 2 weeks? The reason I am asking is because on March 5th (next Wednesday) I am going to visit her for 2.5 weeks until March 25. Do you guys think its realistically to have an interview at the latest March Friday 22nd? Assuming that my case leaves NVC next week. I know if my case doesn't leave next week then there is no chance at all.

 

It would be nice if I can be there with her at the interview.

it takes roughly 3 days to make it to Ukraine, then on average 6 days after that for P3.

To make an interview all we need is the status to be "ready" right? We don't really need to wait for that package to arrive to her address right? I might be confused. Again. LOL.

I don't think they even send them in Ukraine, it's an email that they send once they are ready. i would just assume that it will take roughly 6 days for it to change to ready, just to be safe.

Do you guys think that those of us that got our NVC number today will get to be shipped out next week? Based on previous dates. When is the cutoff? 2, 3 or more days before the shipment?

Usually Wednesday before shipment so in this case 2/27. You may get lucky and swing into this one but I would just plan on the 19th to be safe.

If its 19th then there is no freaking way that we can finish all by 22. Well, it is what it is. Now I wish that I have booked the flight 2 weeks later. 😪

Yes. We did ... literally everything in 2 weeks. Obviously assuming she has her external passport. Police certificate is longest thing that takes 5 days or so. Obviously assuming this is simple case, with no complications. Schedule interview 2 days after medical, OR if you are gambling men, schedule it on late in the day on day AFTER the medical. Assume you won't get medical results same day, but they will be ready next day. Be careful with being over aggressive with scheduling. Here is scenario: Your case goes "In Transit" Tuesday, then shows Ready Wednesday. In reality hard copy is still in transit. You eagerly schedule interview for Friday, and do medical Wednesday with results available Thursday, but on Friday when you show up they might turn you away because they do not have physical case yet! So do use DHL tracking tip Greenbaum posted, it does work for Kyiv. AFTER DHL delivers, the case will go "Ready" again. You know it happens because the date will change. Also, remember March 8 might a holiday for both medical and embassy.

We never got physical package. There was an e-mail with approved 129F attached to it and IMBRA/Spousal abuse pamphlet and then instruction word for word pasted from the website.
