Hi all, I am from lebanon and this is the first time i write but im always uptodate with all the comments. My file has been in process since jan 18, 2011 my meds expired on october 26 i redid them right away without the visa office asking. And they never asked me to redo them and Today i got the ppr request!! Its been 10 months, 2weeks and 3days days el hamdellah.. Just wanted to share my story, so that all of you who are 10 months+ know that ur turn is coming soon inchala! Im going to syria on sunday! Wish me luck and goodluck to all!!!

hey i was wondering did they receive ur file jan 18 or did it say "in process" on jan 18 ? if not when did it say "in process"

He no you can't sadly, that doctor office they have listed is still not valid cause the doctor that used to do the checks retire or left or something. My husband called in, in May and they told him they don't. If you check the website it says the last update they did on that page was in 2008. But if I were you call that number and ask them if they do!

wait till after this week though, cause it's ashura in Iraq so everything is closed right now. I would say call on Saturday when they start work again!

Good luck!

OMG! We have sent them one e-mail after 6 months of silence. That means dont ask us if you do, we will slow down the process for you.Is that right?This is insane, you know what I am really thinking of getting back to my country.I just want to let anything that is going to happen just happen .I dont care anymore.
I am getting depressed :'(
