We're in Angeles Pampanga so it's not far at all so we're just waiting for a tracking number (in text or email?)

You'll get an email to the email address you used with ustraveldocs.  It will include the tracking number.  And they will probably call your wife when they are near, and need directions.

 

Our email arrived 6:35pm of Aug 3.

 

It said the shipment would arrive on or before Aug 7.  But it was literally the next day.

Did you wife get the CFO yet?

 

My wife was sharing the chika in the group chat about an impatient American husband pushing his way in to CFO, past the guard, to try get some special treatment.  Word is that CFO told them if he ever does that again, she will never get the clearance. 😱🤣

 

She was able to get her schedule bumped up pretty easily with a phone call today.  Was Oct 3, now Aug 16.

Nope, we have our CFO/GCP scheduled for August 15th or 16th, I forget which. After that we should be in the clear. I'm excited to get home after four years away.

No doubt.  I've been here 10 months this visit.  If it could have been avoided, I would have; but in retrospect there is no substitute for enduring alongside my wife.  We are confident our relationship is stronger because of it.

Hey @Evan757, checking in.  Did you guys get the email today?

Lol yep, we got it a couple hours ago. Hope they deliver tomorrow! They said by August 11th, but I'm hoping it's sooner.

Nice.  Yeah, i think that is a reasonable bet.

Fantastic.  Good luck to you and your bride at CFO.  Your wife and mine might have CFO on the same day.

 

Our flight is Sept 11-12.  Our port-of-entry is SFO.

I hope you get some good news soon.  I just asked my wife, she has not heard of any more cases going to USEM yet.

 

I hope you guys don't have to wait until December or January.  Seems like the last batch was 5 months worth of cases.  There is reason to believe that was an oversight, though:

The I130 for my wife got approved towards the last week of May, the we got DQ'd at NVC towards the last week of June ( I think 28th as well ). Nothing yet...unfortunately.

There's some hope that this delay won't be nearly as long as the last one.  Someone posted that there was a bunch of appointments opened up in November, so crossing fingers for another mass expedite soon...

 

I've set my expectations for January so that I'm not disappointed, though.

I'm the same way, the way things are going I've set my mind to early next year.

I've lost faith.  The problem I have with USEM is that they are not telling us what is going on.
