Notes from a foreign-trained nurse: 1. I believe that America is a great country. As a professional nurse who's been patiently waiting for a visa for years now, I sometimes wish though that other countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc had ...

Hi to all waiting--fruity,agp_ph, leis23, jakey, neneng, bottomless appetite, topscot and the whole batch of pd 2005-2006 patient nurses!!! I also just called NVC AVR & still saying the same thing. Jigsaw, was your case completed/recently documen...

Looking back, I think the reason for this was that growing up in a big family, and I being the 7th, with all my other siblings older and their ages closer to each other, made me turn to express myself on paper. I thought a writer I will be in the fut...

Fruity, thanks for the quick reply! Since nothing's certain, let's just prepare everything again ( ds230s, pics, police clearances etc). We've gone this far & we shouldn't leave any lil bit of anything out to chance. On another note, I've heard ...

Dear fruity & topscot, It's been 8 wks for both of you since case completion & as per NVC, they're supposed to give us update after such time. Have you tried giving them a ring? Or e-mail? What have they got to say? We're hoping that at least...

Hi! My time to share... and hope again. PD: Dec 2005 Updated docs received by NVC: May 21, 2008 (yep, 3rd time) Case completed: May 29, 2008. So what do we all say? Best of luck to everyone!:wink2:

yeah fruity, i'm pretty sure your case is already complete. that's the same note we got last year right? congratulations!!

Thanks mutya. Hubby's clearance (certificate) actually got no expiration date & he was in Canada in the 90's & never came back. But it was released to us with a date last year (Aug 2006)for Packet3 attachment( we requested that in May). Dunno...

Hi Monroe. Yeah looks like we're on the same plate. I have read your posts before about you following-up w/ your agency & how irritated they were. Seems funny that time but not now anymore. Same experience I get from mine. Look where we are now. ...

I'm sorry about your Mom. Been through the same before. I was Daddy's girl & I lost him to cancer (lymphoma). Hang on, we are all here in this world (no matter what country) for a mission. Sometimes it's just too painful on the way there. Will pr...

Thanks fruity. You sound really warm & nice. You know what I'm most worried about now (because I have renewed copies of NBI already plus passport easy to photocopy) is that of my husband's police clearance from another country where he worked fo...

Oh & BTW our passports aren't even expiring til 2010 & NBI clearances good til Aug2007. Now i'm thinking that since official ds230 forms state it's expiring july 31, 2007, maybe by the time they receive my passport copy & police clearance...

finally got thru an operator & told me the needed docs (again): copy of passports, police/NBI clearances from me & dependents, You know I repeatedly asked my agency/lawyer if only ds230 updated was all that's asked for & they said yes,And...

Good for you leis! My updated ds230 also received July 11 but got bad news today: NVC says i got incomplete/missing docs. Whoa! Had been previously case completed oct 2006 then they asked for updated biographic forms this june & i complied immedi...

Lawrence I wonder in what stage of the process you are in now. Not a few have noted your positive views and gentle advices to others. Well I wish you the best & hope everything's good with you.

Thank you. I wish USCIS/NVC are made up of people as just as you.

Just wanna say thanks to you. i noticed how helpful you've been to posters here, answering various topics/queries. seems you're a very patient person. Wish all of us could have the virtue in the same degree.:wink2:

Bettyboop, all the best of luck to you! With PD of May 2005 under CP, you deserve to be on the frontline when they distribute & issue those recapped visas... agp_ph & gracie08, i'm pleased to hear that you''re inching closer to the goal. fru...

Was just thinking...if we were asked updated DS230, aren't we supposed to be continuously processed since those forms officially expire this month? What's the use of asking for new ones from us at this timre(considering we submitted already last year...

So what do we do now? No crying (had enough of that for the past 2 yrs), No getting mad/angry (because we have no right to be--it was our choice to immigrate legally via CP)..so...? Somehow, I still want to be hopeful.....

Hi fruity! I know how it feels. I think the path thru AOS is shorter than us under CP but at least we passed thru the proper/right way (not tourist but w/ intent to stay). I still believe though that USCIS/NVC will continue to be fair to us. Hallo ag...

Hi all! I have just read from the other thread (Texas Service Center tracker) that ilona13 whose updated DS230 was sent in June seems to be ahead of the waiting-praying queue (from PI). She said NVC thru e-mail notified her yesterday that her case ha...

Thanks ilona13 for replying. Kindly post updates on your case in the NVC-CP-GC thread where I think it is appropriate & you'll be giving valuable info to more nurses. All for God's glory!

Hey ilona, sounds good to me. When did you actually send the updated DS230 and how did you get the notification from NVC that your case was forwarded already to the embassy? You are from PI, right? thanks for replying.

Hi agp_ph. No updates but I already sent last week my updated DS230 forms and I read from the other thread (NVC-CP-GC) that you sent yours also. May I know if you also just sent DS230 and not all the previous atttachments we mailed last year before w...
