Did you call DOS for status and did they not tell you interview date over phone when you found out P-4 was sent October 30?

 

Call DOS and find out what is going on, should not take 2 weeks for P4 to be delivered.

Oh man, that sucks! Yeah, I'd get on the horn and call DOS. You may want to get on the ems (or what ever shipping site they use) website and log in your tracking number and print that information off as well - just for future reference.

DOS visa services has access to the same databases as the consulates, if you call them they can give you information.

Yes - call the consulate. DOS can only access what the consulate enters in the database, and cannot reschedule your interview. Others have done this (called them) - they are MUCH more helpful than GUZ. I'll bet you can re-schedule it very soon.

Email the consulate, they will re-schedule the interview. I understand about the mail, it took my husband 10 days before he got packet 4. I found out about his interview because I emailed them after he sent packet 3 back and just asked them if it had been scheduled yet and they sent me an email with his packet 4 info stating it had. They are quick to answer your email about 3 days.

Most on CFL interview in Guangzhou the med centers in Guangzhou can have results in a few days and for a fee the next or same day. Not sure about HK not much posted about medical in HK. I would do med today or tomorrow and ask and if needed ask about expedite. Edited November 19, 2009 by dnoblett (see edit history)

[Rahm30]

Yes thats about right, it took my husband 10 days I think.

So here is my Final update I hope.

 

After being denied the K1, K3, CR-1/ IR -1. File for a I-601 and finally got approve a few days ago. This has been a very, very long journey.

 

1st off, i try to obtain Laurel Scott to file my I-601, but after reviewing my case, she determin that my success rate is about 20-25% chance of approval. So she did not take my case, but she refer me to another I-601 lawyer that worked with her before.

 

So what's next after I-601 approval ? Who knows.. i hope not another round of USCIS Games.

[tsap seui]

I remember your troubles from before, as well as RAHM's.

 

I hope things work out now for you guys. It took us 4 years and 10 months or so, so I can empathize with you about the time.

 

I forgot what a 601 is but success with any single step of State Department crap is a step forward.

 

Good luck to a successful final conclusion Ben. I look forward to hearing that everything is finished on your visa journey.
