We received our first appointment on 25june2008 but we were notified to disregard because the embassy would be closed that day. our new interview date was set for 18AUG2008.
AND THEN THIS HAPPENED
Our situation was the same as a previous post.. we were given our firt interview date for 04 AUG 2008 but that was cancelled and we were given a new date of 18 AUG 2008 at 0800. My fience arrived at 0700 and waited to be called, she was called to window #6 she said the interviewer asked all the normal questions ie when we met, were we met, how many time Ive been there to see her and if we were planning to get married. After the interview she was told and given an appointment to pick up her visa @ 3pm on 20rAUG2008. she went home finished packing and said her goodby's and returned to bangkok. When she arrived she waited for her name to be called she went to the window and a Thai man told her the Embassy would be in contact with her, they didn't say when or how long. I tried to contact them to findout more info to see if she should wait in Bangkok or go back home but had no luck I've emailed the visa unit and I;ve not heard back yet. Frustrated with the lack of communication I went to my congressmans office to see if the could findout anything for us. They called me today and said all the Embassy said was that the case was still in adminastrative review (what the heck does that mean) (and why would they tell her to come back on 20 AUG 2008 @3pm to pick up the visa if there were issues)So we have just been left hanging not knowing what to do or expect or how long its going to take!!! this is just CRUSHING, like my fieance said "its like they handed me a piece of candy and then took it away".
well my fiance got her visa today after she received a call from the embassy back on the 8th of november she was told her visa was ready but they needed her passport, she went to the embassy on the 10th of november and they took her passports and only said we'll call you...... so we started the wait ...again... finially on the 18th we had not heard anything from the embassy I decided to send them an email ( to the special address) and they wrote back that her visa had been issued on the 13th and it was ready for pick up. After one more e-mail to confirm it was in fact ready for pick up ( because they told her that they would call her when it was ready and she had not received a call, and I've read here on several ocasions were members have received emails saying their visa was ready for pick up, gone to pick it up and then turned away being told to wait for the call and then come back) she arrived today at the embassy went to the window told them her name and they gave her the visa's and envalope and she was on her way all in about 15 min. she will be on a plane on sunday!!!!!

Hi
Im very frstrated and disappointed right now with a feeling of hopelessness!!! Our situation was the same as a previous post.. we were given our firt interview date for 04 AUG 2008 but that was cancelled and we were given a new date of 18 AUG 2008 at 0800. My fience arrived at 0700 and waited to be called, she was called to window #6 she said the interviewer asked all the normal questions ie when we met, were we met, how many time Ive been there to see her and if we were planning to get married.

I need a shoulder!! |

*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.
