unfortunately if you are at the DC office, you are looking at 6-8 months.. you can file a service request, but most likely will get that very response

Wow 8 months is a lot to, our AP has been only 4 months now and time is passing by so slow , ALLAH knows how much more time we have left , they use to give visa on the spot, now days cause of situation they take so much time , it's all about luck , who ever case goes to there hands they get, my last update on there website is April 23, 2013, and since that time it hasn't been updated , I am really confused , don't know if I should wait for some more time , or should I go back to the states , I have had 2 miscariages in the past 9 months , I guess that was in my luck, lets see what happends further , hoping for some good news from my husband visa , to get some good news , been in very bad depression , hope this AP gets to an end

8 months is AP now , and I will agree the most aggravating part is not having a time limit . You have no idea if you will be in AP for years just to receive a denial. The whole process in crazy and our lives are on hold. I understand the necessity of security checks , but there is no possible way it could take 8 months to runs somebody's background. You supply with them with education information , work history ,and previous addresses for the last ten years you have already gave them the majority of the information they need. I seriously believe they don't want to approve the visa , they are dragging the process out so that the couple will lose faith and possible separate or give up. To make the situation worse , i applied for a tourist visa to visit my love in Pakistan , and was denied after 3 months of waiting with no reason.  When I asked why I was denied they responded " we don't know , and we cant tell you ".
 
My congressman is also no help . In the beginning he offered to write the consulate and inquire about the status of my case.  Islamabad replied 
"Your case is currently undergoing AP , There is no way to know how long this will take .When it is complete we will contact you"  One month later I asked my congressman to inquire again. my congressman said " There is no need, they will contact you when its over". I was so surprised . Just because the embassy wrote this stupid email , now my fiance and I are suppose to wait until the end of time ..... until the embassy is ready to contact us? It seems there should be a set limit , a place to complain , someone to help!!!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionQuestion about i-751 to remove condition

Dear Members.

 

need advice on issues with my wife's status change from conditional PR to permanent resident..

 

She came to USA first time on april 2013, our plan was that she will go back in less than six months to finish her studies in Bangladesh and come back in about 1 year. She went back on Jan 2014, we had push back the date for other reasons, she'll be back in march,2014 right before her PR card expires. I was not aware (which was stupid I admit) that we would have to file i-751 to remove the conditions on her residency status, or more clearly, I wasn't aware of the i-751 requirements such as having joint bank account, mortgage, insurance etc. Since we knew she'd go back soon I didn't even get health insurance for her from my job, and didn't pay attention about the other things in the list. I filed taxes jointly on 2012 and 2013 thought. other than that I don't have anything jointly. Not having much of the expected evidences, how much trouble I'm in do you think? please advise

 

Your kind advice is much appreciated

 

Rezwan
