I love Gator-ville (Gainesville). My sisters went to UF for awhile, so I used to visit there often. I spent a whole summer there. I was thinking about moving there for my Masters, but I really love my job and the people I work with. They are the reasons I haven't moved out of pricey South Florida, yet.

Good Morning All,

CASE COMPLETED as of December 13th..........Woo Hoo!

Is the next step receiving Packet 4 which will include the interview date and medical information?

Thanks to all of your support and friendships!

Peace & Love,

Tonya

Congratulations Tonya!!! :dance::dance:

Yes, packet 4 is next. Start contacting the NVC by mid-January to see if you got an interview for February. It looks like things are slowing up a bit in Kingston, so you could be getting a March date. Keep us posted! :thumbs:

Congratulations on your case completion!!! :thumbs:

Does the embassy mail Packet 4 to the SO or do they pick it up?

Thanks you guys, I'm home now. A piece a sitt'n happen to me this mawning- not sure of all the spelling in Patois, never actually wrote it. So i took a cab there and i was on time. I went through security check and proceed to front desk area. The gentleman said "please sign your name on the back of passport pix a take out your birth cert. Mi dear, mi almost drop down, the BC i had in my documents for three months belong to my niece. #######. is a good ting mi eye water nuh easy fi come. I had to call my mother and told her to charter a cab and take it to the embassy for me. I was out side walking up and down like a mad woman. Two very nice policemen came to where i was pacing back and forth to find out if i was ok. I was calling every 15 mins to see how far they where, it takes one hour from ST. Thomas to Kingston and that was what saved me today. Mother came at ten o'clock and i went back inside. The nice gentleman at the desk took my documents and separated them for me. I then went and sat in section A. My number was called and i went up to the window. our conversation went like this. "Passport please" said the lady at the window. "Have you ever been married" never been married i answered. who is filing for you, Omar T.....r. Has he ever been married, yes. Do you have death or divorce cert. NO i don't have HIS D/C. all this time she was flinging my Passport and other papers in the the pocket on the counter for me to to take up. She was mad with attitude. At the section B i took finger prints and was interviewed by a Counselor in training at section C. She asked how i met Omar, how often we talk to each other, When he got divorced if we grew up together and when he migrated. She then said i should tell her about myself and Omar, i was brief. then she told me not to make any travel arrangements because it can take up to three weeks before i get the visa. She wish me Happy holidays and good luck with my marriage. I said thank you and left. They didn't ask for proof of a relationship, nothing like that. I had my phone records with some calls that goes up to 244mins in one call. Not sure if i'll get my passport before the new year. But 2008 will see me in Orlando.
