Zaid,

May Allah make this period easy for you n ur family ~Ameen.

inshAllah he will get his visa v soon, may He be united w/you n family this comin' Eid ~Ameen

I think Aisha has given a good advice=) call and ask what exactly they mean by 'review'.. i won't b surprised that each time u call DOS they will have a different answer. I would think ISL has the most accurate answer, cuz it is them who will b doin the final processings. If they say it is still under AP then, you 've nothin' else to do but call DOS/ISL every week or so for an update.

If you are in US , calling DOS is easier ( i feel) ISL lines are busy constantly and their hours are v limited. Thus i think ppl prefer calling DOS.

inshAllah it will be any day! keep praying during this Ramadan...

n pray for us as well=)

tkc n duas,

Yesterday is history, Tomorrow's a mystery. Today is a gift; that'swhy they call it "the present".

Have your Brother call ISL since he is in Pakistan, y r u calling isl??

We can't do much w/AP except wait and wait; it's said to say but the truth is it is 'unpredictable=) best way to deal w/this is by embracing 'patience'... that is what I have done for past 9 mons + =)

FYI: Today, I called DOS ya know........just to see if ISL embassy said anything about getting my husbands passport ya know.

Well, I talked to this really nice girl and she was like " Still under AP" and I was like hmmm.......

So, I told her what was done last week and she was like " oh let me read on into the notes"

Then she was like " OH yes.....I do see where they asked for passport and they did receive it, but that is all I can see in the notes" Cause I asked her if she could see if they have already sent passport back to my husband and she was like no, it all depends on who is putting notes in at the embassy and if that info is put into the notes from there.

So, the reason I am telling you this is because.........MAKE SURE YOU ASK THEM TO READ ALL THE NOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not just saying " Well your still on AP"

because like I said...My husband got a call to send passport and I had called DOS last week and confirmed that as well.

Thanks

Aisha
