[monnik 0]

Girrrrrrrrrrl...

It's 11 am on Monday morning. Do you know where your movement certificate is?

He should be getting it right about now!! Don't worry. You & Adam will be rejoicing in a short while. Keep Hope Alive!! (not a real person, that Hope! just the feeling)

P.S. - Cheryl, I love your dog! OMG I wanna adopt one today!!!

P.P.S. - I think Tamara meant to start this thread in the MENA sub-forum. We should have it moved.

Don't get down about it, Tam. Please!! Even though his certificate is taking longer than other people's, there is a purpose for everything.

I am so sorry that you guys are having to wait so long.......

That's the thing I learned about Cairo. They tell you something will be done in April then the day comes and they tell you a day in May. Then the day comes in May. Then they tell you a day in June. Then the day in June comes and they tell you a day in July. Then the day in July comes. Then they tell you September.

The day in September comes and you get the run around for the day and they say come back next weekend. Then next weekend its the same thing. Then you do it again two more times after that and they give you a day in Oct. So you wait till that day in Oct and they tell you oh sorry Ramadan...come in 20 days. So now you have a day in Nov. you are waiting for that all started back in APRIL!!!! ARGH!!!!!

It's enough to make you go !

Well, my husband will be getting his MC paper on Monday or Tuesday...

AND we found out whyyy it took soooooo long to get it! The *top* cop went to do the pilgrimage to mecca during the month of ramadan and looks like NO one took over his job of finalizing the MC papers from Cairo... which made us therefore wait 6 weeks for the MC paper which the embassy wants ... too bad there is no way to protest or anyone to complain to.... so while he is enjoying his 6 weeks... hes been keeping my husband and I very STRESSED about the UNKNOWN and keeping the embassy waiting for our MCpaper and passport... i hope he asked for forgiveness for majorly inconviencing people & not putting someone in his place while he was on vacation...

yah im just a lil bit mad about this situation I'd say...

normally Im good with life and dont let the little things bother me... but this whole year of government process and all the *lil things to wait on has really hit some of my nerves...

Tam first i'm sorry that you still waiting for the MC . BUT

- remember when i talked to Adam on the phone and asked to go and meet the director officer in charge of the immigration office here in Alex , talk to him in person and explain his situation .. i believe he DID NOT .

- while i feel sorry for your situation Tam , let me assure you that the story that you said about not having anyone in charge of the immigrant office for almost three weeks could NEVER be TRUE .. when the director officer has to leave the office for a couple of hours i promise you someone else would be in charge .

- and Olivia maybe right about how Cairo is in so many things BUT when it comes to the immigration offices i would say NO ... by the way , believe it or not .. here in Egypt if someone has applied for a new passport he gets it the same day ! that doesn't happen anywhere in the world that i know of .

- also in one of your posts you said it depends on the person's name and it might take longer because his name is Ahmed , but you have to remember that Ahmed and Mohamed and ..... etc may get hit in the FBI security checks or something like that BUT here in Egypt 70% of men are either Ahmed or Mohamed so i would doubt that he is having any trouble here in Egypt because of his name .. well in other words he could have had a name hit in Egypt if his name was Tom , ####### OR Harry !

i hope he will get his MC soon...good luck

Olivia, this is the Egyptian filing system:

No wonder passports are so easy to get!! They know they will never let you out of the country. Who cares if you have a passport??!?!!?? One day to get a passport & 2 years to make it out of the country. Bureaucratic efficiency at its finest.

Oh... Shukran awey for my passport ya basha. That was fast! Zay el saroukh!! Now, I can travel to any place I like... America, or London, or Austr.... HEY HEEY!!! OWWW!!!!!! *help*

ok , to make it clear why i mentioned the passport thing .....

- ( The Immigration And Passport Department ) that's the name of the office where he is suppose to get his MC , it's the same place where you get your passport , very well organized place .. it's also the same place where you ( Monnik ) got your Resident Visa Stamp .. i bet didn't take your husband more than couple of days to get it .

- unfortunately Cairo has nothing to do with ( London,Usa, ....etc ) Visas .. that's why me and your husband and many others are still stuck in here .. BUT i believe that no one of you Americans had any kind of problems getting the Egyptian Visa whether in the POE or for Residency !

- i'm not defending how some of the Egyptian department are managed or how some works in Cairo are done .. i'm just trying to help Tam with her situation and i think the first step to help somebody is to tell the truth even if you know that it's not what they want to hear !

Are you trying to tell her that her husband is stalling for some reason?

i dont think he is saying that... or i hope he is not saying that... bcz I know and family and friends on VJ know that Adam is not stalling around... hes been going to Alex office every other day... going to Cairo... and asking for help in any way he can...
