Hey everyone,
 
Ended up getting a replacement interview due to the cancellation of the Juneteenth. I had my visa medical in the Mater yesterday so they had to give me my passport back for that.
 
I was told by the embassy to send my passport to them by DPD but when I tried they said passports are prohibited item. I asked the embassy and they said “As soon as you receive notification from the Mater Private that they have done this, please contact us again and we will update your profile to request your passport through the DPD courier service.”
 
Has anyone else had to do this or did you send it to them in an alternative way like registered post with An Post? 
 
thanks a mill 

Anybody else’s visa interview canceled for tomorrow? Just got word ours is cancelled cos of Juneteenth federal holiday announcement 😢

It is hard reading some of the issues people are facing and some of the harsh views people have taken. CR-1 has been totted as family over k1 at times as I have read through this thread. Some of us K1s filed just at the start of covid and could only wish to be with our partners. We also have children with our partners or have chosen not to marry until we are together. K-1 should not be looked down on for being prioritised as it can be just as much family as a husband and wife. When did marriage become such an important indicator of family? It is awful that CRs are not being processed as fast but that is nothing to do with K1s.  In a time of great heart break and wait times for all, why turn on each other. 
 
Its just hard for all of us. Apologies for the rant. It is just difficult to read these things when coming to forums for support and information.

Congrats to all of ye guys! Great news all round, best of luck
