P3 in, waiting for P4

[rondrum42]

Hi, I know there are a couple of us out there who are just weeks or days away from recieving P4. Just trying to stay in touch with those

who are following the same timeline as we are. My SO told me that GZ

will be closed for National Holiday, October 1st, 2nd, & 3rd. Will we know before or after the holiday????

Anyone have any news from SO, or DOS this week?

Where's timeline or nooneufo when you need them.

They used to keep pretty good records on people's timelines. Yep,,,,,, a couple of "number-crunchers" they were!

I've been calling DOS everyday and they tell me our P-3 does not even show as returned yet. My Ying returned it August 20th. At least yours is shown as returned.

 

I don't think they will do anything until after the holiday but I will call again tomorrow!

 

Good luck to us all!!!

Same here. Will call DOS tomorrow, but really don't expect interview date until ATLEAST next week. Our P3 wasn't received until Aug 28 so I really don't expect P4 for another week or two. Just wanting to get a jump on airlines/hotels. I promise to keep you all posted!

Yes, I am trying to do the same thing. Plan time off, travel,

and a wedding! WOW, it's hard to believe that any day now

we will find out, and then the fun starts! I will call DOS again

today too. (Friday)

We will Keep in touch............

I just called Dos and they told me that Amy was elligible for the interview!!! She told me I should receive a date very soon. is Guangzhou going to be closed Thursday and Friday or just thru Wednesday? They will be closed Monday for Columbus Day. I am not to far behind you. I am hoping for a November interview date. I would love to have Amy home for Thanksgiving!!!

 

Our timeline:

Feb 13th mailed I-129F

May 18th received approval

June 11th sent to Guangzhou

August 8th P-3 mailed to Amy

Sept 14th P-3 mailed back to Guangzhou

Sept 26th logged in and elligible for interview!!!

[rondrum42]

Well, here's another strange twist!

I called DOS today and they said they dont show P3

being rec'd yet.....last call they told me they rec'd our

P3 on September 12th! What is the problem with this agency????

The woman on the phone today assured me that once P3 is sent

out, P4 will not be too far behind. Now Im really confused!!

i also got various quality of agents on DOS. I think that the agents that tell you the most normally are the better trained agents. Many of them do not know how to use their computer systems so just say no info. I think they would not give you a date, if they did not read it. Whereas the last one most likely could not really use the system to see what info is in it.

Yes, I have read that here too. That some have more computer

access than others do. (thats just wrong!)

i do not think it is access, i feel that many do not know how to use the system. Some of them as they talk seem to be very confused. I think many of them are new with little training.
