For info, I learned yesterday that our file was sent to Bern, Switzerland the day before. 31 days after NOA2

Since we have done all (police, medical) things required (low volume of emigrants from Switzerland, we got the package 3 before by just asking before the NOA2). We just need to negotiate an interview date, since my fiancée is in Los Angeles with me...

Will keep you posted

Stephan

See, this is interesting. In some countries you can get interview date fast, like I did (there is also low volume of petitions) but it's the same thing with Germany and I know there is a high volume of petitions because half of US military is stationed there.

I found on the Embassy website that our Medical Exam and Interview appointment has been set for Nov 28th and Dec 5th. Now it comes so quickly. It's nice to actually have a schedule to look forward to instead of the open ended waiting we were subjected to.

Congrats on the progress everyone is making, it has sure enough been a long Journey and a tough road to walk. I am sure we will all have our own stories and difficulties that we struggled with, but it is almost over. Soon we can relax and enjoy our lives together with the one we love so much!

Good Luck!

Hi all,

Samir had his medical today. He seemed to think that he did fine; however, I don't think that he understood how extensive it was going to be. He didn't mention how long the whole procedure took, but was quite suprised by how extensive it actually was (mentally and physically). Now we must wait for the results and then he can make an appointment for his interview.

Good luck to everyone! :star:

Yeah, it is pretty extensive. They pay very close attention to the chest x-ray it seems. Alan had some small scarring due to a childhood illness like brochitis or something and it showed up on the x-ray. The doctor talked to him about it and had him tick a box on a form that talked about it. :blink:

Everythign went well though. Hope things go well fro your fiance too, Erin. Keep us posted.
