We are cooking at my house. My father and grandfather are here so it will be just us three. Everyone is contributing to the cooking which is nice. We are doing it the traditional way with a baked turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, dressing, corn, pies. I can't wait until it is all ready. I never eat breakfast or anything before Thanksgiving dinner so I can have plenty of room.



Well am in work, I know you are so happy knowing soon you habibi will be with you good.gif don't eat to much you can get sick and you need to be in shape for you hubby whistling.gif

Middle East and North AfricaAsking for Prayers again!
QUOTE (Turia @ Nov 29 2008, 12:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I found out this week, that my son's unborn son is in trouble. I hope you can forgive me to ask for prayers for him. She is about 20 weeks along (not due til April), having labor pains, and the placenta is presenting itself first. They say its very low and that if the baby is born anytime soon, he only has a 30% chance of making it. All I can think about is what i went thru almost 21 years ago with my son Christopher. She has placenta previa, I had abruption of placenta. I'm praying and hope you all will say prayers for Arron Jacob. This is gonna be a rough road for a while for me. So forgive me if I start babbling. I don't know if I can take another big loss like this!!!!


Of course honey I'll pray for you unborn grandson, keep the faith and know no matter what we go through, God is always with Us. rose.gif

My husband just got the call from the IOM (International Organization of Migration) saying he was approved for refugee and will be flying to the United States on the 10th of December. I can't believe it. I went through so much trouble getting the expedite and then in the same 24 hours he gets the refugee visa. He is going tommorow to take his passport and start the final outprocessing for refugee. I began to wonder if this day would ever come. Thank God is all I have to say!

It is just one of the great films I have watched recently. I fell in love with the powerful love of Hanna and Michael. Hanna's eyes said how much she loved the young kid.

Did he get ANY paper when he has his interview ? They are required to give him a notice if they don't issue the visa. If he didn't recieve anything it may be a wedge that your respresentive can use to get the case held at the embassy. If he was handed anything have him fax you a copy. Also have him write a transcript of what happen during the interview while his mind is still fresh. Include what was said and done even if it didn't seem art of the interview.

he did not get any paper, my husband said she ask for his passport and he gave him back and he said (my husband )did you finish with me? she said yes, and he said can I go? she said yes, that is all, tomorrow the attorney will make him write exactly what you said, what happen in the interview. am here right now waiting to call the Embassy they open 8:30 am

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsWHY IS VERMONT TAKING 7 + months and california approving in 2 months?
I am the petitioner and the processing time for me was 7 months to the day. It is very frustrating and my fiance was going crazy, but that's wasn't my fault and once just has to hang in there, be 200% patient. When the relationship is genuine there's nothing to worry about.

BTW, she's got her package and we started gathering the paperwork. Hopefully the interview will happen for her by the end of June in Warsaw, Poland.

Good luck people!

Hi Forbes and Marlita,

Did the Kingston Embassy contact your husband notifying him of a change of his interview date? Today, my Hubby received a call from them stating his date has been rescheduled for Oct 24th @ 7:30a instead of Oct 21st. They also asked him if he received his packet, he said no, so they said it should be mailed out by next week.

Just would like to share, I know you're both planning on going JA. You might want to call and see if your husband’s interview dates are the same.

I received packet 4 today also. Hubby's birthday is Thursday and I will FEDEX the originals tomorrow. He has already updated his vaccinations. He will just need to show the Embassy physicians panel when he makes his appointment next month.

Tash: have you decided if you're going?


Hi Forbes,

We decided that it's not really necessary for me to attend. We're both confident all will go well. We are well prepared and have trust in the Lord. Plus I really want to spend some quality time together/and get some things straighten out when he arrives, so I'm saving up my days for that occasion instead.

Has anyone of you ladies with a recent assigned interview had their AVR response on NVC change? Mine has not changed yet and it has been 10 days since the interview was assigned. I figure that the Packet 4 wont get sent until the case reaches the embassy, and the case does not reach the embassy until after the AVR changes. I'm just trying to give the Mister a heads up on when to look out for the packet, cause he works wierd hours and cannot always get to the post office when they are open. Plus this doesnt leave him with enough time to make medical appointment.

Also for the medical, are appointments only on certain days and certain hours?


Hi Marlita,

My status has not changed either. Today I received the appointment letter from NVC along with instructions to visit the below site:
Interview Preparations (It's instructed to read the Interview Preparation Section located at the bottom of this site)

Is this Packet 4 you're refering to? Or will the benecificay get another letter? I think what I receive is all the information needed. It also includes the Vaccination Requirements and a Checklist of what Docs NVC have received and the status. I'm going to make a copy for myself and FedEX this to Hubby tommorrow, so he can start with the medical.

So everyone feels it's best both spouses are present together during the interview? I thought that actually gave them more opportunity to drill you more. It's not like they can ask a lot of questions especially if the person never lived with you before. So if one person is there telling how you met and such what do they have to justify that? Basically they have to go with what that person says. I only know of two people personally who went through this process recently and only the beneficiary attended the interview with no problem.

Hi Jgay,

Well he had mostly everything. Once our case was completed at NVC I provided him a copy of EVERYTHING. Starting with the I-130 form. Bascially everything I submitted to the Sercive Center & NVC, he has a dup copy. So I just sent some updated phone records, pics of us togeter the last time I was there in April, and updated pay stubs. Yes, lets see if you get sqeezed in Fri coming. Fingers crossed here for you.
