100% agree. So much time wasted just for reuniting with our families.

So much time waiting…. It’s hard to not be bitter about it all…. All the “I could never do that “ comments don’t  help do they …

It’s a good thing seeing all these movements for many ppl over the past few weeks. 
 

Buy now I found myself checking my status and email every hour to see if there are any updates. Haven’t done this since I was placed on AP back in 2023. I’m hopeful but this is also very stressful.

Yes something like that. I think there has been 2-3 people adjudicated every week in July. Definitely an increase now then from the beginning of the year to now.

seen that when some people get the call to send in passport, there is a request to update the ds260.    so here is my question.    
medical is good for 6  months
criminal is good for 1 year
how long is ds260 good for and from what date?

Good for one year from the interview date, is my understanding.  I just noticed ours now shows re-opened (July 21 marked one year since interview)

Hi Carmen,

Did they email you to update the DS-260 form, or did you just check the website?

I logged in to the website.  We’re still awaiting the Consulate’s request for passport, etc

I use an application called Case Tracker . The app logo resembles a sideways american flag with an flying eagle silhouette in the middle.
