Ok being me I had to call DOS for the last time just to see if they would tell me that the visa was issued. Yeah they said sorry it is still in AP, I said why would it now show that the visa has been issued and that my husband has it in hand??? Mam it doesn't state that who told you that? I said my husband has it in his hands with the visa stamped in it and the sealed envelope that he has to give at the airport she said oh the computer only shows AP. I asked her just for future info is there another screen she could look at or if they only say things to get people off the phone. I think I made her mad cos she was very prompt to say that is all she can see. I wished her well and hung up.

Thought you might get a laugh out of it also cos I found it very funny. I find it very disheartening for us that go through this process and try and beleive that someone would know what the he11 they are doing in this process but I am afraid that no one really knows what the heck is really going on.

honestly..you would think that they could be A LITTLE bit more organized cause this IS peoples LIVES they are messing with... It'####### or Miss everytime I call DOS.. sometimes they sound like they know what is going on... Other times.. CLUELESS!!!!!!!!!!

So basically we shouldn't even bother calling DOS when it gets to AP/AR stage. Just wait it out.

That sucks. I at least would like to see what is going on when I get to that stage.

I had a similar experience. THe problem is there's more than one screen they need to look through and most just stop at the first. I was told we were complete, then not completed, then complete then visa issued at different times in a 2 day span. The latter, that the visa was issue, came when I started tearing with the one DOS rep I talked to. She called me back on my cell about 2 minutes later to explain there's more than 1 screen and after she looked more in detail saw it had been issued.

I'd say call but always ask if they are looking at the last screen with most recent updates.
