That is what I was told as well...... servants worked on Christmas Day and got their holiday the following day along with their gifts etc. In the UK my impression has been: A paid holiday celebrated at a pub by meeting up with friends and family that you were unable to see over Christmas. It seems it is also celebrated Canada, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa....but I just looked that up.


And Jamaica...Mon! laughing.gif wink.gif

And again, the Federal Mexican government does not issue police certificates - it's all in the reciprocity schedule.

That's weird. Mexico does not produce police records, and they know that since it's in the reciprocity schedule. Call the Mexican Embassy anyways, and chances are they will be so disorganized they won't give you much useful information.

apparently there is soemthing we can do
http://www.edomex.go...no-antecedentes

and it slows things just a lil but i spoke to the person that iterviewed us and he said as long as i sent this doumnet showing no criminal records in mexico we are good to go .. he just needs to have it, once we do we have to mail it dhl with is passport so that it can be stamped!

other than that everything went smoothly!!!! He was very nice!!!
and the interview was flowing until he asked about mexico! ha ha
imnot worried at all he actually mentioned and said good job on my apllication it was better than what lawyers send!!! meaning packet 1

the consular said that the embassy of mexico needs to write us a letter saying that they do not emit those documents here!!!
now we have to wait and once we have it we need to send it with Santiago`s passport so they can stamp it!!!
how annoying!!!??

Well you guys aren't the only ones with "bumps" in the process. Ricardo went to the interview in Panama on Monday, March 10, but since he was missing his Record Policivo and Certificado de Solteria (apparently in Panama that takes forever to get) they told him to come back to drop off his paperwork and his passport when everything was ready. He filed to get his Record policivo on Feb 28.......they gave it to him on March 18........anyways the thing is He got everything and dropped it off yesterday morning. they told him that the cosul has to have the last look and that they'll call him to tell him to pick up his passport. of course they didn't tell him if he was getting the Visa or not, but we are very positivie b/c Ricardo kicked butt on that interview, and we gave them so many pics and evidence it's ridiculous LoL. So I know what it's like guys, we're all in this together. This is a long weekend in Panama too and apparently the embassy down there also takes panamanian holidays in addition to the gringo holidays off. I'm just praying and I have a really good feeling about everything. we are officially done! nothing else to turn in! lol, God Bless wink.gif


Yeah we kicked butt on the interview too, the Guy who interviewed us even said I dont have any doubts about ur realtionship, but i need the antecedentes document to put it in file, I understood why with the whole homeland security deal....

HELLO all !!!
Here is a little Update for the ones that follow our case!
Santiago is gathering documents to send to his brohter in Mexico ,so that he can get the antecedentes needed for us to finally get the visa in hand!!! kicking.gif

He had to get fingerprints, birth certificate, Certificado domiciliario, ID copy, passport copy and pictures all of this had to be legalized by the ministerio del exterior and then leaglized by hte mexico embassy and then has to be send thru DHL to his brother for him to do it, it takes a day and then he will send it to us for us to send it to the embassy with his passport to finally get his visa!!!!!!!!

One more bump, its a long holiday weekend in lima and everything is closed so he will have to wait til monday to legalize what he needs to!
But its OK we just need patience and we are in not much rush to get it, they didnt give us a timeline so as long as we get the visa by april 15 we are good to go !!!!!!

Good luck in your journey and thanks for all of ur kind thoughts!!!

I got up this morning, and put on my Peruvian pants that I hadn't worn since August. The funny thing is I had run out of clean pants in my closet, except for the Peruvian ones. Drove to work, and I open my email: And there it was. CRIS himself (or herself) had sent me a personal email, stating that he/she approved our petition, and that the notice had been sent!

Ah, the magic of the Peruvian pants. Heck, I think I will wear them till my So gets here.

I AM LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ON YOUR JOURNEY FROM WHEN THE NVC RECEIVED YOUR CASE.

DID THE NVC CENTER SCHEDULE YOUR INTERVIEW?

DO YOU HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PROCESS?

Hi Forbes,

I understand your frustration!! Although K-1's seem to have a speedier (sp?) process as far as getting the visa in hand and getting your SO here. Please look at the big picture! I sincerely believe if I had to do it again...I would go CR1/IR1 track...only because it may take longer to get your SO here...but once they are are...the CRAZY wacko.gif run around K1'ers have CR/IR1's do not!! They will have an SSN, auth to work, and green card relatively quickly after they arrive

Just continue to tell yourself...'This too shall pass!" You can also feel free to PM 'Mrs. Scott'. She went the CR/IR track and can answer all of your questions. She's a sweetheart and I know she wouldn't mind you asking her ANY question about the process!

Good luck to you both and please take it easy on yourself!

K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNOA-1 generated (per website) Quick Question
QUOTE (foreverido @ Apr 8 2008, 09:15 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I submitted my 1-130 last week. How can i know if a NOA was generated? I notice that many ppl say "NOA-1 generated (per website)" ....which website? and what reference number do i use to see that? Thanks


I don't know if you are referring to the USCIS website to check the status of your application.

But here is the link:https://egov.uscis.g...w9pWevc4eHYhWKr

Unfortunately without having used a personal check, you will have to wait until you recieve the hardcopy of your NOA1 to register for the site. Typically, if you sent a personal check, the USCIS would cash it and stamp your Receipt Number on the back. You need that receipt number to register for updates.

Sit tight you should recieve your NOA1 shortly!

Bless-ed,
Gill

PhilippinesINTERVIEW PRAYER

rose.gif Loving Heavenly Father,

You know all my worries and fears regarding this interview! You are a most loving heavenly Father and You understand my innermost feelings!

Yes Lord! I am so nervous thinking about the outcome of this interview. You know my limitations Lord, but Your word says that Your strength is enough in our times of weakness. I admit that I have no wisdom or knowledge of my own. But I have confidence that I can do every thing through Christ who strengthens me. I do not know what is in store for me but I know that my future is in the hands of Lord of Lords, Who has made me. So Lord be with me and help me to find grace in the sight of the concerned authorities. I need not be afraid of men because I have the Lord Almighty beside me. Please go before me and let me answer the questions boldly and intelligently. Please remove all the unwanted fears and worries and fill me with courage. Let me never be put in shame.

I thank You Lord for listening to my supplications and filling me with Your peace. In Jesus' name I pray.

Amen.

Pace Skyrockets dancin5hr.gif But Some Pre July Petitions Forgotten? sad.gif

Here are the new VSC summary stats that reflect approvals dated through December 1st.

The projected number of processing days is based upon the number of open petitions divided by number of petitions approved per day for the various periods. As the approval rate changes, the projected processing time will change also. Perhaps dramatically. Please do not take the projections too seriously. However, projections may be useful in determining if your plans are realistic given the current rate of approvals.


WOW Bill you did this??? ohmy.gif That's amazing!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! luv.gif
Many blessings,

There is no activity today and I found this article on CNN today and found it rather amusing/ignorant. Any ideas from anyone else? Don't we live in America, the melting pot?! wacko.gif


http://www.cnn.com/2...ette/index.html


It is just another example of the small-minded Americans (not all of us). During the last election, politicians and the media used the gay marriage issue to distract us from the real problems going on in this country. This election they are using immigration. Unfortunately, the dumb ones will fall for it again.



You're dead on, Steph!!! good.gif ...Damn shame though no0pb.gif ...'Land of the Free' and some people are afraid to think for themselves no0pb.gif
