I still have my fingers crossed for you sue.. I with many other people understand how stressfull it is.. :fingerscrossed:

I've got my fingers crossed as well sue :)

It is very stressful indeed and you just don't get told much at all, like I thought once you had the visa that was it, wasn't told by the embassy about having to fill in the form on flight or about secondary processing.

When you apply and wait all this time you feel like your the only one!! So it's good to have a forum like this, so you know your not alone.

:fingerscrossed:

absolutely, this forum is the only thing keeping me sane!!! To pack or not...to change my spending money or not...to sort travel insurance or not...i'll need another holiday after all this!!

Have you checked flights prices/availability? I would start to get ready to pack.. would you meet your family out there the day after if it came to it? :)

Do you mind me asking why you booked leave from work and had the rest of your family book flights/holiday already? What is so special about travelling right now? In other words, why couldn't all the arrangements have waited until you got your visa?

If they know your intended travel date they will try their hardest not to meet it.... lol :( From past experience that is the one thing that is consistent with these guys........

Re: Nonimmigrant Visa Waiver of Ineligibility Application

Having applied in February I simply followed the time frames given by the embassy, I have to book leave from work a year ahead and we never dreamt that it would take so long, some of my family had already planned the dates around their committments...the family went ahead and booked because who wants to waste 2 precious weeks of leave from work!

If you bothered to look back at sue329's posts, you'd see that she began the entire application process in February but had the interview in April:
