All i can say today is glory be to God. because everything points to the fact that the CO didn't know exactly what he was doing:
my wife went to the embassy around 1100AM SINCE HER appointment WAS 1:00PM. after checking in and waiting for 3hours, the consular officer called her to the window and just ask for her passport. and didn't ask her any question. ,congratulated her and gave her visa collection slip without even asking her about affidavit of support he called her one week after her first interview that she will need. she left the embassy and whiles she was informing me about what happened at the embassy, one hour later this officer called her on the phone that she should come back to the embassy.
she got there and the officer apologized to her that he is sorry he had to call her back but he needs the affidavit of support. my wife gave it to him and after going through for some time he said thats ok you may go now. so my question is if this officer knew what he was doing, why didnt he ask her when he called her to the window?
All i can say is glory be to God because why she was not approved on her first visit and was given AP still marvels me but what can one say once approved thats all. Thanks to VJ members for your support. for those who are still waiting just keep on praying and everything will be fine in God's appointed time. |

Embassy Review : |
All i can say today is glory be to God. my wife went for her first interview on Nov 17, and after 4 hours of questioning, this CO handed to her white slip 221g(AP) and told her to come back on Dec 15. one week after the interview, this officer called my wife on phone and told her everything about her papers is ok but she will need affidavit of support since my income was not enough to support her. This was after i have submitted AOS to NVC and was approved or recommended for approval. upon informing me i emailed the embassy for clarification and i got the AOS and mailed to my wife.
my wife went to the embassy around 1100AM todaySINCE HER appointment WAS 1:00PM. after checking in and waiting for 3hours, this same consular officer called her to the window and just ask for her passport. and didn't ask her any question. ,congratulated her and gave her visa collection slip without even asking her about affidavit of support he called her one week after her first interview that she will need. she left the embassy and one hour later whiles she was informing me about what happened at the embassy, this officer called her on the phone that she should come back to the embassy.

All i can say is glory be to God because why she was not approved on her first visit and was given AP still marvels me but what can one say once approved thats all. Thanks to VJ members for your support. for those who are still waiting just keep on praying and everything will be fine in God's appointed time. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
