    Oh no, I am so sorry to hear this! Just remember that God does everything for a reason, and after waiting so long maybe he wanted him to be your little Christmas present; I will definitely be sending some prayers your way and hope that everything goes well the second time around. I've noticed...

    BOGOTA Visa Office 2012 applicants

    ok so I'm getting a little concerned/worried... they start counting the 16 months from the date the "application was received" according to ecas, correct? Or do they count it from the time the application was "in process" ? :o

    BOGOTA Visa Office 2012 applicants

    We submitted our application in August of 2011, which is 16 months in December, but I heard they start counting from the date of the AOR which was in October of 2011 for us. It would be really crappy if they took the full 16 months until February but immigration is usually pretty concrete with...

    I really hope so!! Hopefully we can have some happy couples reunited in December. If not, I think it'll be double the wait time as we all know vacations in Colombia always seem to run a little longer….

    Hey sridoy, Just checked eCas, and the status is now In Process.... I think our cases are pretty similar? Im guessing my husband will be getting an email soon for another medical as he did his June of 2011.. I was hoping they wouldn't do that as I read a post about how medicals can actually be...

    Hey sridoy, I can't reply to your pm for some reason... But my husband sent in his passport on September 4th but he wasn't requested a police check or another medical (first one he did was June 2011). We haven't received any information at all since then and the eCas shows as "application...

    actually he never served in the military.. its just a prerequisite for any adult male in Colombia, to have a Libreta Militar. I am a bit confused though because they didn't ask for more medical tests and its already been more than a year since his last ones. Would they ask for these later on...
