A i know I'm so burn out on this thing i think i will cancel it and do the k3 or cr1 or just do the k1 again I'm sure it would be faster than this when i see dec and jan people getting approved that just is to much.

I hope you're joking because it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Agreed! 'stuartx13' .... I hope you are just joking here. WE all know and completely understand your frustration!

Hi everyone....Just wanna share OUR "roller coaster Packet 3-ride" to you guys...

Hmnn....we got the mail last 24th of January from NVC telling us that our papers was forwarded to the consulate already....SO happy with that! But there's almost like 4-days Karneval holidays after that so we waited,. Then Packet mail was still nowhere...: :huh: Called up the embassy 12th of Feb, and was told our packet 3 was sent to my way THAT day...again SO happy and getting more excited! so still waited another week and nothing showed up! Then called almost everyday this week to check, and cant get hold of somebody to talk to...so decided to send them a mail and an email...checking where my packet 3 is for 2 weeks now?????...and they replied via email that it was returned to them because of WRONG address.... :angry::angry::angry: BUT why can it be wrong??? or if so...why i wasn't informed??? since they all have the details, phone numbers, home and email addresses???...if we had not checked and kept on following them up...until now we were waiting for nothing.SIGHHSSS... :no: Now, im impatient of waiting for them to resend the packet 3 and scared it might be lost again or wait another 2 weekssss? so asked them, that i have researched and downloaded the forms i need to send them back to be able to schedule for interview so if it is possible to send it their way even i have not received packet 3 yet...thank God they said YES... :dance: so mailed it to their office Right away...just WISHH :innocent: ...we would be getting a schedule for interview soonn....

...and now back to waiting...

So any of you guys who just had their approvals out there and waiting for their packet 3...BETTER KEEP CHECKING!

For the rest who are still waiting...hope you get yours anytime SOON....

Our case was touched for fhe first (official) time yesterday too. It's good to know that at least it's there and someone did something with it, even if they probably just took it from the big pile to someone's desk. I got all excited when I saw yesterday's date on the USCIS website :)

My finance still hasn't received anything from Barbados. They said that the packet was mailed on the 7th of this month, and when I asked why it was taking so long they resent another one on the 21st.

St. Vincent is right next to Barbados there is NO reason it should be taking this long.

This whole process is extremely frustrating!

Yes, absolutely... and even drinking is starting to look appealing too :whistle:

What about drinking while checking the USCIS and VJ websites? LOL!!! :D

Heh. We need to invent a USCIS drinking game. If we drink every time anyone waiting for an NOA2 checks the site compulsively, we will all be raging alcoholics and at least 60% of us may die of alcohol poisoning, but maybe something a bit less obvious. Every time someone gets an RFE for informaiton already sent or gets yelled at for using the RFE trick, take a swig (I need a drink!). Every time someone gets an approval, packet 3, or interview date, take another swig (Nazdrovia!).

EmpressM, did they send it by snail mail? I can't believe that the mail is taking so long to send it to St. Vincent. I wonder how long it's going to take from Barbados to St. Lucia. If i remember correctly, I read on MIDUVIL's post that they waited 3 weeks for the mail to arrive - and they are IN Barbados. That's crazy. Well I hope you guys get your Packet 3 soon. Keep us posted.
