Still in Trinidad trying to find some one with a magic Jack to call for n interview date. I'm wondering if it's even worth it seeing everyone is being told to call in June :(

So for some reason... I am finding this waiting for the interview very hard (i know it has only been a couple days since our case has been complete) but I think it is because they are not many timelines for Barbados... so I am not sure on how long we will have to wait for the interview date.

I am becoming antsy and anxious to just be with my husband. So I am going to try not to check this website too much and not call NVC haha.

Just wanted to vent a bit.


Yep I'm another in the waiting pool.
Im hoping to have an interview in July (hopely the 1st week if im lucky) wish i can get a date this friday or next friday though.

OK so story of my life, something bad always have to happen before something good does.
Yesterday parts of PA flooded and i had to drive thru it, i drive a crysler 300 (doesnt sit high), I stood there in my car looking at the water thinking i wont make it, i cant go right and i deff cant go back with a 100 car pile up behind me so i can only go fwd. i sat for a lil bit :unsure: and this white Audi went around me and drove fwd. finally i got the B*lls to drive thur so i went slow and droves as close to the median in the middle of the rd. finally we are almost out of the water when the impatient white Audi car decided to give out :bonk: . oh gezzz there are 50 cars now stuck in water up to their doors for 30 mins. Usually in Trinidad people will come out and help push the car thur and to the side but not here where i live, every man for themselves. firefighters came and push him out i was never that happy no get out of water before. my car drove home but now its gotta go in to the shop, waw 2 days before vaccation just my luck. no yippy skippy dippy d dippy here :(

So now that some thing bad has happened hopfully the something good is OUR INTERVIEW DATE, please lord please let me be happy :) before i get the bill from the Repair shop. :o

Been so busy NVC hasn't been on my mind, I called last night at 8pm and they had no date for me. They told me to call back the 2nd week of June thats when they might have one, I know thats not true. I will call them back on Friday before I leave im hoping they can tell me something positive by then cus i cant call them for one week once I leave.

Question: Silly, but just wondering...

Can I bring a book with me while we're waiting at the Consulate?
Because they don't allow cell phones correct? Just wondering how to pass the time if we have a long wait ahead of us :)


Not sure about ur Consulate but in Trinidad my aunt and husband took a word search game book, it only keep them busy for 1 hr tho :rofl: they had 2 more hrs to go.

It was a call from the U.S. Officer that will swear her in on the final stage of her interview! The interview is in 12 hours, but the officer knows my wife will not have the medical results back until Wednesday at 9am..One day after the interview and she told my wife that she will be fine......She will give her a Letter to come back and bring the Medical Results on Wednesday! That's positive thinking from a American Officer and makes me feel good!!!


I wish ur wife the best of luck i hope she's not too nervous. It's almost over :thumbs:

There shouldn't be a cut off time. They work until midnight. Keep an eye on it ;)


More like the work till 5 and are grumpy form 5-midnight.
But i must say when i called arround 9 or 10pm and got case complete the lady at NVC actually sound happier than i was. it's just some love there job and some just dont wanna repeat themselves i guess.

I'm not sure WHO knows first; they might even both know at the same time. When I got my interview, I called DOS first and got it there. But I immediately called up NVC and got it there as well. I would suggest just calling both places. It wouldn't hurt!

And it's usually a few hours after the interview date is scheduled to receive the interview package. I found out my interview date early afternoon on a Friday and got my interview package at 6am on Saturday. The interview package contains the interview letter which the beneficiary needs for both the medical and interview.

Thanks ma lady with almost all the answers....

Question: Who know about your interview date 1st, NVC or DOS?
Also how long after does it take to get the interview email?
Does the email take the place of the letter that will be sent to the Binificary or is it the same thing?

GOODYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

YAYYYYY!!! The interview today in Trinidad went SO smoothly! My husband just called. They only asked him what my name is, when we met, and if my address is the same. He plays basketball and is really tall so the employees at the embassy made him sign the back of one of the passport photos so that they "don't have to pay for it if he goes pro".

What a huge relief. He will be back next weekend!!!! :)

Thanks to all for the support and encouragement throughout this process. Couldn't have done it without VJ. :dance:

hey guys i have a quick question...Does not writing my case number on the upper corner on every page of package IV would be a problem? I mailed it before i got the instructions..and then i saw it might delay the process,,.... and i am stressed out about it!!!


Dont stress.. did you put the BARCODED cover sheet in front of you packet (as the 1st page)? that's what you need to do most inportantly. ITs already sent dont stress now, we put the case number on each paper incase a document gets mispalced they know where it belongs.

Here's a suggestion: just put the headers (USCIS, NVC, Medical/Consulate/POE) in color to highlight that section. Don't put the entire section in color. That way, your last section won't be so boring :P

And yeah, I was out of room, so I just decided to make a picture out of my timeline by creating it in InDesign.

I just found the two flags together on Google images :P I didn't actually make that Posted Image


ooooooooooo thats a good sugestion. Google it is. Id like to put my whole process on but that might end up to be too images lolll. 1st my mom came (in the days when I-130 were so quick, u get married and BAM!! ur here with ur spouse) and 10 yrs after i did, then became USCitizen & now trying to drag my husband over. I miss all my friends and family so much sometime i feel like i should tie a rope arround the island and pull it over so they will all be driving distance :thumbs:

Try getting rid of underlined words. And maybe remove some color. All that takes up lines and for signatures, you can only have 40 lines of code. If possible, maybe remove a word here or there, condense your signature. I had to do this multiple times when I was going through the process too. And I had links too in my signature and that takes up a lot of lines of code Posted Image


OH boy no colour :unsure:
How do you highlight?

hello folks,
Sorry guys it been pretty busy for me....Anyway good news, Visa approved and interview was pretty simple and easy for her. She said the questions were around what's your husband's job and how many people were invited to the wedding then Visa approved....I'll get you guys more details when I get a chance.


Thank you folks for your help, specially the Sensei :)



APPROVED!!!!! We way over-thought the process, depending on where you are having your interview, if it is anything like Spain, be calm and relaxed, it's a piece of cake. Basically my husband went in, overflowing with pictures and documents. They only care about the tax reports (i sent originally the 2010 because it was before April 17th) if you did the same, make sure that you bring updated tax transcripts. I would bring them anyway, since it seems that is all they care about. They asked him what he will do, he said study, when he told them that we are studying in two different cities until i receive my MBA the guy could care less, he just said that's great, good luck, APPROVED! My husband was in shock, he asked if the guy wanted photos, letters anything, and the guy said no. They did leave him a room for about an hour while they went to get lunch, so that was nerve-wrecking.


Just know this, make sure your file is absolutely complete before it is sent to the embassy and you will have nothing to worry about!!!!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!


Awsome for u guys!!! Happy it was good experiences

Do you guys start calling the day after your case complete for your Interview dates?
Im thinking to start on Friday. I looked at others from Trinidad timeline's and it varies from 5-20 days, that's a big gap inbetween. Does the date of you case complete have a part to play in how long you have to wait?

PS: i just call NVC cus i was uncertain when to start calling and he just said it's when ever the embassy send them open slots then they fill them and send emails out with your dates.

Wow that's like 15 days str8. Well I already called for 29 days what's another 15 lolll.
