Hi Prasin...

I had been to Mumbai friday. The condition is really worse now. Epidemics are swallowing people. Luckly I din't have to go out of airport since I have to receive from International terminal. I was so scared to go out and have food. So I spend the entire time in the airport untill my flight come. I pray for all the people. May god bless them.

Well the agency has asked me 2 weeks time to resolve this issue. That is by the end of next week. I will give a call to NVC after that and will try to get the status. Hopefully things will be done by that time.. :)

hi everyone! i have been informed by my agency just this a.m that I am scheduled for interview on Sept.1 :) for those of you who are also waiting,you might want to check your case numbers now! :) by the way, my PD is June 2004. Goodluck to everyone! keep us posted.

Hello Dale, Suzanne!

My interview at the Manila US Embassy was cancelled by a filipino staff of the embassy, he said that my papers is for "recall to INS where it was filed" I was not given a chance to show my documents eg. visascreen, offer of employment etc, I was not also interviewed by the consul, they just took my letter of appointment and advised me that they will just inform me of another appoinment date. Do you know what's wrong with my papers, NVC said that I am documentarily qualified, do you know any possible reasons for this, I am so frustrated. :crying2:

I am sorry to hear that, but can you give more details? What agency and state did you apply? I ve heard a lot of agencies quarelling here in the Philippines and throwing accusations at each other. And one extreme case was a group of nurses for interview belonging in one agency who were questioned by the fraud division of the embassy. :angryfire

I am really sorry to hear this

I've never met that staff before, after I gave my appointment letter to the receptionist she told me to wait and my name will be called to counter X or Y, there's no incident that I treated them badly. I talked to one of the agencies here and it also happened to one of their nurses last monday interview, same situation, they said that there's a mistake on INS part to insert or include any document, and the embassy don't want to admit such mistakes because INS is a big known US agency. Is this probably true? Please delete some messages in ur PM mailbox, i can't get in, ty.

This is so unfair if they did this to you without any valid reason. You mentioned something about INS commiting a mistake, I dont know what kind of mistake can cause this. The staff in the embassy who told you that your case is being recalled, I was just really wondering why he used INS instead of USCIS which is it's new name, if he is really from the embassy he should know this first hand. And for you not being given a chance to have your interview?? This is what really amazes me... usually they will tell you the reason why, lackin of documents perhaps...but this is unthinkable.

Can anyone on this forum share their knowledge or opinion about this, this is no joke and very scary. I just can feel the agony, just imagine after the long wait and supposedly your interview, then you will fall flat on your face with this incident. I am really sorry to hear this and I hope someone can shed light on you case.

Hi all,

I heard from a friend of mine that I140 & I485 can't be applied at the same time from 2006. If that's true, then ppl can only apply for EAD until they got 140 approval. Have anyone heard about that? I'm on a F1 visa and I'm worried about that.

Allergies should not give you any issues, since they are not contagious. :)
