Waiting on the VSC to make a decision?

[Zee Bee 61]

Wow.....I haven't been here for a while!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well Leidy and I officialy got married yesterday!!!!

Having Leidy here kind of made me forget that I still have more to do!!!! ...The AOS process!!!!!

Well i just wanted to stop by and say hello and I'm dying to know where everyone is in their process!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Send me a little message and tell me!!!!!!!

Where is Mirla in the process ...I've been away so long I'm lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Byron! Nice to see you haven't forgotten about us

[AlHayatZween 2]

Just got back from England. I was able to attend the interview with Darren and it took all of 5 minutes (we waited a couple hours though). I can't believe this is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Step and Darren!!

Glad to hear your interview was quick and well....relatively... painless.

What's the next step? Have they issued the visa already?

Yaaaaayyy!

Does anyone know what form you use to transfer your visa interview to another embassy....we still have not heard from the issue with them sending our

visa to the wrong embassy......I am trying to be prepared if they say they are not going to transfer themselves.

if you want your case to be transferred to vancouver, then you will have to contact vancouver consulate

our petition was sent to italy by mistake...my fiance lives in albania, so i had to contact the consulate in albania and have them speak to the naples consulate about the transfer...it didnt take very long at all...maybe a week tops

Wow Byron, we missed you! Congrats and welcome back!! I am sure you and Leidy are having a great time together, may God bless your marriage.

I think Mirla is already in the states, i got my visa last week and i will fly to VA on monday!

Still continuing a slightly better approval rate.

As an aside, I said in my last post that I was starting my 4th waiting month... I meant 5th. Sigh. And it is still sobering to see the number still waiting before me. C'mon VSC...

Wow.....I haven't been here for a while!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well Leidy and I officialy got married yesterday!!!!

Having Leidy here kind of made me forget that I still have more to do!!!! ...The AOS process!!!!!

Well i just wanted to stop by and say hello and I'm dying to know where everyone is in their process!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Send me a little message and tell me!!!!!!!

Where is Mirla in the process ...I've been away so long I'm lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa, he's alive!! Congratulations on your new marriage! Glad you popped in. We're almost home also. Been approved and just waiting for the travel date. and yes, Mirla arrived in NY on the 10th.

So VSC - did I mention how nice you look today??

Well when I first started coming here last year it was taking a good 6-8 months for NOA2's...and those were the lucky ones! Now i'm seeing tons of people from VSC getting them in under a month which gives us MUCH hope since we can't even file until April. Yet, there are still those of you waiting all these months. I don't get it. No rhyme or reason it seems. I understand your averages based on the timelines here but there certainly seems to be very little consistency.

I am one of those fast NOA2's...and I completely agree about the processing times...I am happy about it, of course, but it doesn't seem fair that some people have been waiting 10 times as long for the same thing...

USCIS, GET IT TOGETHER!!! GIVE THESE PEOPLE WHAT THEY NEED!!!

Just got back from England. I was able to attend the interview with Darren and it took all of 5 minutes (we waited a couple hours though). I can't believe this is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations Steph and welcome home!!

Thanks for everyone's support and kind words! Darren arrives tonight!!!!!!!!

[rupa 2]

Still continuing a slightly better approval rate.

As an aside, I said in my last post that I was starting my 4th waiting month... I meant 5th. Sigh. And it is still sobering to see the number still waiting before me. C'mon VSC...

I hear ya!! I'm in the same boat, I wonder if we'll be counting on 6+ months. It seems if you don't get it within 3, then you get stuck forever. Geeze, I hope I'm not right......somebody please prove me wrong.

You must be soooo excited!!! I get to see my Darren at the end of next month!!!

Does anyone know what form you use to transfer your visa interview to another embassy....we still have not heard from the issue with them sending our

visa to the wrong embassy......I am trying to be prepared if they say they are not going to transfer themselves.

Being how this is for us.....Can you just go to the other embassy.....I know the cost and time and all but I would be afraid to give them anymore ways to screw you guys......Just a thought

Just to let everyone know where we are now....still have our packet stuck in Montreal....we have emailed the embassy and still know reply...we emailed our embassy of Vancouver and they said we had to deal with Montreal....we have talked to the NVC center and so has our congressman and they said you have to deal with the embassy's...they will not deal with you by phone..we have tried....they said it must be by email.....

We are so frustrated with this process of not being able to talk to someone who can help us....VanCouver gave us a phone number which when we called it. it

said it was no longer a valid number....

THe problem with going to MOntreal to do the interview beside traveling 3000 miles is that the wait time is about 4 months and we had just rescheduled our wedding for May.......this was the NVC centers error...they admitted to it....yet why can't someone help us??????

Will the madness EVER stop!!!!!!!!!!

I am so sorry Charlene.......I am in indefinate processing and review at NVC and yes they are of no help.....I know that it is a pain but maybe you should just go to Montreal......Like me I am thinking it will be a year before we can get this visa done.....IT JUST SUCKS

I feel for you both and for all those who have been waiting for what seems like eons for their noa2 already.

I hope you will be able to hold your NOA2 soonest, as in really hold it physicallly.

God speed on our visa journey.

Lora & Charlene, im so sorry the visa nightmare is still not over for you both. It doesn't make sense at all. I can't help you guys, but I can always hold in prayer...This too shall pass.

God speed for you both.
