her flight was 45+ min late and immigration and customs too almost 2 hours... she had a 3 hour layover.. that left 15 minutes to get from international to domestic with a bathroom stop along the way.. we made it.. We spent most of the last 2 days getting settled and unpacking.. I see a combination of homesickness and jet lag kicking in this afternoon... just part of the journey that everyone goes through I suspect...
Thanks everyone... only 38 days until we tie the knot...

I'll meet her in ATL in 14 hours and then we fly home from there... I'll be the guy holding the huge teddy bear in the airport if anyone wonders... :dance:

Congratulations on the approval, by the way!

Thanks... it was getting really old.. especially when I see others getting visas 3 months or so after initial filing... it was only 15+ months for us.. a year more than some... oh well cant cry about spilled milk.. on to the rest of our life together..

Wow.. her interview was only 8 months ago and they gave her the pink slip today.. she picks up the visa on the 30th... :dance:

She should be here next weekend..

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune '09 Filers
if all goes well she should be here 2 to 3 weeks.. she will try to get an updated medical tomorrow... it may take a huge bribe to avoid waiting another month for the medical..

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune '09 Filers
We are almost there. The congressman said they sent Thuy a letter asking for documents and the investigation phase is over! She will take the docs next week. With luck early oct we will be together.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune '09 Filers
Nothing new.. I think she will travel back to the consulate again next week to do a face to face inquiry. When I call DoS they say that the consulate noted in the system the Police cert and medical are expired or missing.. she has the police cert that is good for another 6 months.. but she cant get the medical without a letter from the consulate and they have not sent her anything... hoping that the visit will yeild a letter and some progress...

Hello Scott,
Wow!!! I really hope that Thuy gets hers visa soon. What a difficult consulate your dealing with. Have you got your Senators involved to expedite the outcome of your case? Scott please hang in there. Hopefully everything will turn out fine and this all will be a memory. Take care.

Thanks.. senator and congressman cant help.. its just a waiting game... we are so tired of this #######..

Two investigators from the consulate showed up at Thuys apartment last weekend.. they asked neighbors questions as well as the manager.. had them sign statements... Why in the world does this have to be such a misreable ordeal?

I emailed them a week or so ago and this is what they had to say...

Thank you for your inquiry.

A consular officer reviewed the beneficiary’s case on July 31. However, the case is now pending a final review by a consular officer. After the officer review, we will let the beneficiary know what documents she need to submit to complete her application.

We will contact the beneficiary when there is a conclusion on this case.

Last night they did the investigative calls from the consulate we have been waiting on ...
me 30 minutes
my ex?
MIL 30 minutes
Thuy 70 minutes

now that they have completed that segment, we should get a decision this week or next.... about time...:whistle:
speaking of time.. 11PM is a great time for a consulate to call for an OTP interview huh?

When I first came here I was so surprised it rains but is still hot and humid!! I got used to it now. I find Florida hotter than Cairo because it's humid, Cairo is dry. Yesterday we went swimming for exactly 15 minutes then it started thundering and raining. We're going swimming today again though :P

So far, I have gone swimming, fishing, attended 5 birthday parties (including mine and John's on one day), attended a funeral, went to the flea market, went to a mosque, went to a church, tried playing baseball, went jogging, went to the international food store (so many goodies to choose from), etc. I'd say I am adjusting very well and I really like it here in FL.

Which part of FL will you and Thuy be?


Happy Father's Day to all the daddies in the thread. :)

Aya


Near Ft Myers.. SW Fl... If it starts raining.. wait 20 minutes and the sky will clear up... its the Fl Summer routine... I grew up in Palm Beach... in a couple of months it will get really hot.. Aug and Sept are the hottest months here...

Hello June '09 Filers!

Can't believe it's been a year since we all started this journey! I have you all in mind often!

I know I will be sticking around here cheering for Scott and Thut and celebrating their reunion in the US very soon. (F)

Aya

Are you getting used to the rain every afternoon yet? Does it feel like the same heat here in FL?

Hoping Peter has good news for us from last week... I should be the only one left from June now... we should hear something soon... I sent an email yesterday asking them to please wrap it up so we dont have to pay for another trip accross the country to get a new medical..the medical is only valid for 6 months..it expires in 2 weeks...
ScottThuyMaleVietnam2010-06-17 16:20:00

They returned all of our evidence and said that our case is undergoing additional processing...AP... it will likely be this month or the next before we hear from them..
ScottThuyMaleVietnam2010-06-01 15:33:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune '09 Filers
Thanks... hopefully in the next couple of months... I have my congressman inquire every month and I email every couple of weeks or so since it takes them over two weeks to respond... my last email to them cited the DoS policy requiring them to review documents within 30 days.... hoping that brings us some results... there is really nothing we can do other than file a writ of mandamus to get them to review the file...

Hey People it has been a long time hasn't it, I have only just got my interview date after they lost our paperwork... Keep strong to all those that are waiting, trust me out of all the bad comes good =) xxx Posted Image


Only two more weeks until your interview! We are all pulling for you guys...
ScottThuyMaleVietnam2010-05-23 15:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune '09 Filers
nope... he said it could be any day orup to 1 year from the date of the interview...nothing he can doother than a writ of mandamus.. A friend said they are still doing an investigation and that it will be next month before they get it done... dont know how much credit to give his source... she is going back to work and I am staying busy making extra money so we can really enjoy her arrival in a huge way... everything that could have been done to get the file looked at has already been done..now its just wait and wait some more... :clock:

I wish it were as simple as telling them to finish the paperwork,but they say we are in a queue which is BS... trying everything we can to get it done... contacted a great atty today to get them in the mix...

Posted Image Thanks Chris... 9 months and counting... I was just there again in Feb and I wish I could be there now, but when we sat down and looked at how much we have spent with me flying back and forth over the past year it was a huge surprise... seems like they are trying to wear us down financially and emotionally. we are both as strong as ever...

Thanks.. We are trying to make the best of the time... I am reminded of a song that says"this killin time is killin me" ... so we just keep thinking its only a few more weeks or so... We are guessing sometime late April or early May... Thuy went to a fortune teller and that was what she said and oddly enough that was what I was expecting based on previous cases in AP at HCMC.

I'm positive it will end really soon already. ;)

Hi Aya! Have you adjusted already?

Scott, goodluck! I'm sure you'll get it this time.

Anyways, just dropping by to say hi! How's everyone doing?

To those who received their visa already, congratulations!

To those who still haven't, just hold on. It will come. Best of luck!!!

I wish Megan were doing better... For those that didn't see her post... he bailed on her recently before they got married... at least it happened before they tied the knot.
