I e mail the embassy today they said this :

Dear Madam,

As I am sure you are aware, visa security procedures have been extremely strict

since September 11, 2001. Security clearance procedures can sometimes take a

very long time, as is the case with your husband's application. Government

agencies in the United States are making efforts to shorten the visa security

processing time, but for some people, the process is longer than it is for

others. Unfortunately I am unable to give you any specific information

regarding the security clearance procedures that your husband's case is

currently undergoing, nor am I able to give you a definite timeline for their

completion.

We appreciate your continued patience.

I hope this information will be helpful to you. now leave me the chop fk alone.

Thanks

we dont give a ####### embassy!

I hate this stupid ### freaking generic email! I HATE IT! I AM HAVING A MELTDOWN NOW! If the SAO has been forwarded to embassy what the hell is taking so long. ahhhhhhhhh!

I wanna go bang my head against the wall!

Dear Sir,

A search of our files indicates that this case is still undergoing additional

necessary administrative processing as part of the security clearance procedure.

Visa applicant affected by additional screening should expect delays before the

case is concluded. It is difficult to predict the amount of time that the

clearance process will take. As soon as it is complete, we will contact the

applicant for continued processing of the visa application.

Thanks

With all due respect Mrs.ShonJaveed (it is just a joke)

Michigan, Shon can do anything. She is an American Citizen

She must be mentioned in her letter that she is from minorities group (LOL) and all white in DC are trying to deprive minorities groups from their RIGHTS.

By the way Michigan you will also start getting these type responses if you ask your wife to write e.mails to USCIS/DOS or any other Government agency.

I remembered with the help of Shon last year I wrote a letter to Mr. Vice president and replied me a very detailed letter.

Hello Everyone,

I think we need a group hug. LOL I see things have been very interesting lately. I have not had time to come and post but try and read the new posts in between running around trying to do all things. Ishteaq got his ss card so we are off to job hunting now. JP had surgery and still dealing with this and its after effects for 6 more weeks and then another major surgery in the fall.

Denali/Allison, Omid, Shonnie, Michigan all of you hang in there on the AP. There is light at the end of the tunnel just do not know when.

Hafiz having a meltdown? Chanting Visa, visa, visa. LOL

Really good luck to all and I am praying that everyone is reunited with their loved ones soon. And Danika good luck once your processing starts.

Cindi sorry to hear about your mom and will continue to remember your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Gotta run again.

HUGS,

Mary :)

i submitted my packet is Aug's 1st week and interview was scheduled for Dec 27. But finally it held During May.

Atleast you have a great hope that your spouse will get visa instead of going on AP/AR.(Insha Allah).

But look at us/males
