At the top of the page click on options then check the display mode is set to standard - freaked me out when it did it to me once as well

I got very upset - I thought they had changed the layout of the forum and I almost cried!!!

Haha - no probs... I think I actually had a hissy fit when it happened... tears and all... oh how much I have changed through this process!!

Haha, same happened to me, I thought they changed the format; I freaked. It actually took me a couple days to fix.

Isn't it funny how it has become such a big part of our life that it stresses us out if we have any little change?

Saying that - what do people think of the new timeline changes? I love the way it is made a lot clearer now at the top of the page and explains which NOA date to use to keep things consistant I still need to check mine

It does?

What am I missing here? I don't see that....

But I do like the layout. Didn't at first. Sometimes change is scary.

I called the DOS today to find out if Charry has an interview schedualed and the lady told me that they have to send her the Packet 3 and she has to return it first.

Anyone who has spent any time in the Philippine forum knows that the Manila Embassy doesnt send a Packet 3, They go straight to the Packet 4/Interview. When I tried to tell her there is no Packet 3 in Manila she was all like there has to be that is proceedure. When I told her otherwise she got flustered and hung up lol.

No interview yet.

Damn cant edit now...

I just did some research of other Philippine cases.. Consulate/Embassy receipt to Packet 4 receipt seems to be about a month.. so looks like I'm jumping the gun here..

ok scratch that..

someone else got their packet in 2 weeks.. guess it depends on what they have going on at the embassy at the time.

That's cuz her computer prompt told her to say packet 3 then interview. When it goes out of sequence or deviates from the norm, they get flustered

It happened to me too! I was too embarrassed to ask what happened! Eventually figured it out on my own, but it was a few days of hell!!

She hung up on you?? Where do they find these people?? It just appals me the things these people get away with. Yea I'd love to hang up on customers/patients when I don't know how to answer their question or it just gets too stressful if they're upset. Sheesh!!

any word on what's going with ur extended review??

[Jeraly 4]

The new timeline thing must only be on the forum homepage then perhaps... I can't see it on here and I am being naughty and comign on here in work It is at the top right on one of the main pages If you actually go to edit your timline now as well there are screenies of the NOAs to show which date to use

That would be a big fat NO . It's making me a little crabby these days. I'm so tense all the time waiting, checking, worrying, panicking. They haven't said anything to my congressman either which is weird in my opinion. I don't think it's the same as administrative processing. Last time I called they said it was in the name check state & would to to a processor after that. It's been touched a couple times since that phone call so what the heck? Back on a stack of petitions? Under petitions from August, September etc?? Can you tell i'm bitter? lol

I'm trying to not think about it. I'm going to visit Jeremy next week and I WON'T ruin my visit worrying about this but right now I'm worried that we're going to get bad news beforehand and we won't be able to help but be sad while i'm there. What if they flat out deny our petition? What if we have to start over? Does that ever happen? I can't imagine why they'd do that to us but I keep going over in my mind what we submitted and wonder what the holdup is.

Gonna stop myself now, I could ramble on and on here lol.
