No Title
Thank you so much for the information, valuable for the ones still waiting and congratulations. Another thing to consider is that before July 98, these type of applications were filed at local INS (like your case). But after that date, all applications were centralized in NSC and must be filed there (not in local INS offices anymore). Since NSC doesn\'t have records of applicants in each local office, at the begining of each fiscal year, they ask local offices to notify NSC of approvable cases. And, using that information collected from local INS offices, they allocate the 10,000 visas. So, if by any chance, the local INS office didn\'t report timely, of any case that had an "approvable" status, that case was delayed and had to wait until next fiscal year.
One last question: could you provide details on the interview, how is it conducted, questions, did they stamp passport there?, etc. Thanks again
