US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionSdo-Best wishes for everybody waiting interview date

Good luck I just wish I had an Idea when the new list would be published. Its very hard having the holidays long distance we have been having internet trouble all day. I did notice there is a pattern to the numbers on the list the highest number I could find on the current list for a 2013 case was 201379 so if you are a sdo201338 id say good chance at this upcoming list.
 


My case number start with 20138, and I was checking the list and I saw numbers like you say 79 , so next are 8 , I hope so.
And I hope they update the list at the begin of januery

My fiancé was contacted by the embassy and was asked to fill out the DS 260 online form, but when I get in it its asking for NVC case number and the invoice number. We are at the embassy stage not NVC, so am confused. Can anyone please help me?


For fiance visa you dont need sd-260, fiance visa need sd-160 and 156k form, read well your consulate instructions

You know better the rules for K1,
It is a visa to enter one time to usa.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionBooking a medical whilst visa is 'in transit'?

My visa left the NVC today and is 'in transit' so was thinking about calling doctors tomorrow and booking a medical for next week. Do you think this is a good idea? I'm guessing by the middle of next week the embassy will have my application in hand and may of sent out the 'packet 3' by then anyway. What do u think?


Your visa isnt in transit, your papers are in transit.
Nvc doesnt issue visa, consulate issue visas.
In transit mean tgat nvc sent your petition to your consulate at your country.

Best to have them in the UK .......cheaper


Thanks for answer, I guess is cheaper in our own country that at usa.
I am from DR, I think have my vacinations here in DR.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionMedical Today

Hi Guys,

I didn't have my vaccinations prior to the medical, however they told me I could have them done at my GP and take the form with me for my adjustment of status in the US. They gave me a letter for my GP with the required vaccinations. The only ones required are MMR, Influenza, and tetanus and diphtheria, if you haven't had those two in the last ten years.

I'd advise to get them done by your GP because the medical charges a lot on the day for vaccinations and the US will charge a lot too if you don't get them done before you go. However, it's not a requirement at this stage.

That's the advice they have me.






Then is it better have the vaccinations here or at usa?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionDominican Republic Packet 4

Did the email packet include the letter for the medical appointment? I understand they are blue, but I suppose one could print it on blue paper.


I dont know now I am a litle confuse, because I am reading others post, and they say that if the packet doesnt arrive , we have to pick up a duplicated at santo domingo 2 week before of tge interview date.
To be sure I am going to e-mail the consulate an get the right answer.

Technology is a beautiful thing. :)

I emailed the consulate this morning at 11:30 to ask if they could email me our packet 4 so we could start making our arrangements instead of waiting for the snail mail in the DR. By 2:30 I had a response with our packet! Counting down the days now until December 5th!!

If you're waiting on your packet 4 email them! So much better than sorting through the appointment list and feeling anxious!




Hello I want to know if you realky got your packet 4 by e-mail or did you have to wait that the packet arrive bi mail?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionCan a consulate have a passport long time?

Unfortunately they do not need a reason to keep you in AP.  They have one as they don't do this for the heck of it, but they will never tell you.

 
Hopefully it won't last long.
 



Thanks for answer but I am asking if they can keep my passport year.
General when they put people in ap tgey dont keep pasdport they ask for it when ap finish.
In my case they have my pasdport

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionCan a consulate have a passport long time?
Once you are approved at the interview and the consulate take your passport, how long can they have the passport?
I ask because I was approved on march 18 they took my passport and I apid the delivery service, on march 24 i was put in ap without reason, never I havent been arested or I havent had problem with the justice.
I e-mail them asking why I am in ap, but they dont answer nothing.
They have my passport now for 2 months.
I am wonder if they can have passport for year.
I hope someone who has had this experience can answer.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionQuestions about CEAC website

Yay! I hope so. My case creation date changed to june 27, 2014 same with my status updated date. But my status is still "ready"
But i believe that case creation date is when you was assigned a case number from NvC.


Congratulations, soon your visa will be issue.
When they change the creation date that mean your visa is ready to issue.
Congratulation :)

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionQuestions about CEAC website

I had my interview last month. After almost one month, I check the  CEAC site and it says my visa is still under administrative processing. The waiting is so painful.
 
I have some questions about this site. The first one is what the case creation date is? Is it my interview date or another one? If it was the interview date, for my case, it should be "MAY" instead of "MAR".  Another question is what "01" after my case number stands for?
 
Thanks in advance!




Crearion date is when nvc asigned a case number.
Update date is every time that they touch your case.
In your case they asigned your case number on mars and the last time they touched your case was on june 13.
When they issue the visa your creation date will change to the date that they print the visa.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionHow is this possible?
Maybe one secret agency from usa governement was working in your case and updated it. Lol
I was checking a friend's parents case and I noticed that was updated on saturday 12 and issued on monday 14.
The consulate here doesnt work on saturday, so probaly are the usa agencies who work in the cases. That isnt a secret that usa after the patriot act spy people and have the control of everything with a lot of agencies, maybe the watch all papers before give the permition to the embassy to issue a visa, who knows.

It is like that, they dont update the list.
But if you ask them, they will tell you that they update the list every month, but that isnt truth.
They dont update the list.
So if you want to know your interview date keep e-mail them, they tell you by e-mail your interview date and maybe when your interview passed you will see your case number at the list, lol.
People at the consulate dont work right in many cases.

My papers arrived to santo Domingo on november 20, 2013 and on december 31 they e-mailed me my interview date. Almost one month later they gave me my interview by e-mail.
Dont waste money calling them, just e-mail them in one month and I am sure they will have your interview date.
One thing is sure your interview date it will be on 3 or 4 month.
My papers arrived on november 2013 and my interview was scheduled for march 18, 2014.
the average time to have an interview date in DR is 4 months after your papers arrived at the consulate.
And congratulations that your papers are at the consulate, now you have to wait less than at the begin.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionJuly and August interviews posted for DR

thanks but my case is not on the lis!!t...so why did I got an email saying that I my appointment is on August??? still waiting for packet 4???


Then call o the consulate to ask for packet 4.
They e-mail the packet and you print it.
Or you can e-mail them at: santodomingovisas@state.gov
They answer usually in 2 bussiness days.
But as you say that they e-mailed you saying that your interview is on august and you need packet 4 for pay at banco popular and for the medical exam then call them and they will e-mail you the packet 4.
Packet 4 is a letter with your case number and the appoinment date, another letter with the instructions and a list with the objects that you cant bring to the consulate, but the important letter is the letter that show your case number and interview date.
Maybe the e-mail that they sent to you is packet 4.
Because if has your interview date and case number and your name that is packet 4.
To be sure call them.
Why arent you in the list and they sennt you an Email?
Sometines they do changes, and now they are moving some appoinment due to the tecnicals problems that they are having.
So congratulations in your appoinment that coming soon.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionApproved for EXPEDITED CR-1 visa then placed in AP?
Remember and you can do read that on internet that the data base system of the deparment of state has crashed around the world , this problem affects all the issuance of visas around the world.
They started to work on friday 25 but no in all their capacity, that mean that they are having delay in the issuance of visas.
If the deparment of state doesnt issue the visas the consulate cant print them.
All the visas around the world are issue by the deparment of state and they do a security check of each applicants. And figure the the system crashed.
In onky one country this problem has affected 50, 0000 visas.
So be patient and hope that when the start to work in all capacity they issue your visa soon
But take in count that ap can take some months somettines.
