Hey Yardies....



Ray and I went downtown today and boy was it hectic..... Ray couldn't feel his toes and we were freezing so bad that I had to take him home after standing outside for 4hrs. We left my sister and friend who stayed there and was front row in the parade route. They have great pics of the Obama's. I'll try to post some tomorrrow. What a day. It took 3 1/2hrs and 15 blocks of walking to get home. Phew! Anyone else go down.

Ours was a little different. Looks like JGay left out the city to me.

Shrewdie:

White House
White Sands PO
St. James
Montego Bay, Jamaica

That's what we put.


Now, with the work address, it could look a little different. Holiday Inn actually had a P.O. Box or the address. It was hotel name, P.O. Box ####, Montego Bay, Jamaica.


Ours was

Mammee Bay
St. Anns Bay PO
St. Ann
Ocho Rios, Jamaica

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?



Not sure if he has to go to the same places as K-1 folks, but here is some information on the medical thanks to Lawns because I couldn't find it.

NVC does go by when your case was recieved not complete. Kish was filed for years ago, but her husband was a LPR so once he got US citizenship the case upgraded. Her case has been at NVC for a long time (like years) cause of the LPR wait. So her timeline is still confusing to figure out what dates they are on for scheduling interviews. We need to find someone who has a USC track for NVC to see what dates they are on. However, it does seem that since Kish got done at the end of April they are at least doing cases complete from somewhere in there. Forbes and Tash both received NVC cases on the same day in January 08, but their cases werent complete til like mid April 08. Thats over 3 month. I was at NVC for less than 2 so I dont really know what I'm trying to say (lol), just trying to pass the time. I didnt expect a date til October anyway, but at this rate it may not be til December!



I hope you don't have to wait that long Lita. I'm praying for you girlie.

I got an e-mail from the embassy saying the are booked up through Sept on yesterday. I'm not sure if it's true and I'm not sure if that's just for K-1 interviews, but I just wanted to let you guy's know. I hope they were lying and you guy's get scheduled for next month.


Hey Sunny,

Yes that is for K1 and K3. The embassy doesnt schedule CR/IR1 dates the NVC does. The NVC says they are currently scheduling September this week. So hopefully someone hears something from them. Whats your completion date (date your DS-230 was accepted) so we can add you to the list.

edit: oh never mind i just saw it in your siggie.



Thanks Lita, I wasn't sure but I sure hope someone here gets an interview for next month. I'm protesting for you guy's. We want an Interview!
We want an Interview!

Thanks for adding me to the list. smile.gif

JAMAICANS WITH CASE COMPLETED AND WAITING FOR AN INTERVIEW DATE



Tash..............April 15

Kishmar..........April 25
Marlita...........May 8
Jgay..............June 18

Ok, this is quite depressing to me, but I thought I would bump up this information since September is on the books. Hopefully somebody on this list gets a date soon. Lets all pray for one another.

Dear God, we come to you in prayer thanking you for all that you have done thus far in our lives and thankful for all that you will continue to do for us as your are our Father. Thank you for blessing each one of us with the mate you set out for us to have. Lord you understand each and every one of our situations and you know each and every one of our hearts. I pray that you give us peace and serenity thru this immigration process. Please step in as head of our households while we wait to be reunited with our husbands. I know that you have a perfect plan for each of us and that we must have faith to see that plan. I ask that you help us to hold strong to that faith when we begin to feel weak. Help us to have understanding of this process and see exactly what it is you are preparing us for.

Please be with our husbands as they are not with us during these months. Please keep them safe, healthy and happy dear lord as they deal with being away from their wives. I pray that you give our husbands peace during their times of need, and when they feel lonely. Please guide them during these days to become the mate you would want for us to have so that we may soon come together in unison and exhault your holy name giving you all the honor and glory for bringing us together. Times are very hard dear Lord and we grow weary, please dry our tears and mend our hearts in anticipation of this wait to be over.

I pray this in the name of your holy son Jesus Christ...Amen. heart.gif

Amen, and I sure hope you guy's hear something real soon... I mean real soon.

Sounds good to me - I am swamped with school until the 1st week of May, then in JA the 19th to the 27th - So either the weekend of the 9-10 or after JA would work

Unfortantely, we rarely eat homemade Jamaican food. The only foods I cook are curry shrimp and jerk chicken (he calls it American style wacko.gif ). Damien adopted my terrible fattening eating habits when he first got here then ee started eating lots of American healthy foods. He'll cook but not many Jamaican dishes mad.gif Can't wait until his brother gets here...he can really cook. Maybe he can teach me.



That would drive me crazy. Marcel says his belly can't manage "yankee food"...thanks to Mich he loves doritos now...finally a snack he likes

Sundays in Negril is a live band at Alfreds on the beach, and a local party at Long Bay Beach-

O.k. so at Alfred's on Sunday is this dinner and the band or just the band?? Long Bay Beach is this a club or just an area of Negril??


Alfreds isn't dinner - although they have good food there - Just the band, starting around 10 or so - Long Bay is the public section of the beach -

My suggestion would be - Go up to Ricks in the late afternoon, have a drink, watch the cliff divers - Go a few doors down to LTU Pub for dinner - Strolling musician, little white lights, great food, not expensive - Then grab a cab to the beach and go to Alfreds.



OMG, memories from Alfreds... I love that place.

I havestayed at Sandcastles. It wasn't bad. The rooms are hit or miss, but if you get one that you don't like, just ask to be changed to another room. It's in a perfect location and Ray's friends were able to come on the property without a problem. I would stay there again.
