150 dollars mein pet nahi bharata ....yeh site kahanse chalegi...

p.s. - that's how much we pay in hosting charges . The beauty of the forum software is that anybody can install it and use it. But when something goes wrong ... its going to be aweful. May be its a signal that we need to open a fresh thread!

My source tells me there won't be any forward movement in this VB..I am real worried now..

Ok, guys, I'm getting really, really nervous now. I really hope your source is not correct. The predictions on this forum have always been spot on and I sincerely believe Aug VB will show significant forward movement. Biting nails....

LOL, Q !!!

I am planning on refreshing the last page/s on this forum, than refreshing the visa bulletin page. (Is this a bad idea, as I saw Database error too!)

I did the same last bulletin too, and news of bulletin release was posted within a minute of its official release on its official site .

[velugc]

Almost 4 now i guess VB will be out tomorrow... dont know if will have any nail's left by then...

Already 3 PM. No update @ http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/bul...etin_1360.html

[Spectator]

Very logically put Spec.
Totally agree with your point.

There are two schools of thought.

imdeng's post gave a great chance to show the consequences of the "literal" interpretation, which says that if demand ever reaches zero, the category must become Current.

Ultimately, the problem is that the law was not written with this scenario in mind - it never envisaged multi year backlogs.

Two dates are necessary - one to file and another to be eligible for approval. The proposal to establish a pre-registration system might have achieved that.

PS Lost my first reply due to load on the server - not sure this one is as good.

PPS I could probably argue black is white!

Absolutely..this forum excels and differentiates itself from plethora of other such forums..sole reason why i visit it so often..

You are trying to spoil the sanctity of this forum....Pls stop the non-sense...we are tired of such topics on the other forum..

May be Mumbai US Consulate's website gets updated tonight. Hope.

[immitrickz]

I am saying the same. I am just a messenger on behalf of whoever will actually shoot you down!! Hey just kidding. Actually I should thank you for the info.

I just wanted to point out that the information runs contrary to the calculations. So bigger the surprise ... the source will gain bigger credibility right?

or notoriety in this case.. I should leave predictions to you and others.. You understand that you now have the power to divert mass hysteria right? just kidding..

Q - Please remove all my posts on this topic..

Q - Please remove all my posts on this topic..

People dont want to remove your posts, they just want you to know/establish credibility of your source.

In these moments of wait, I remember sometime back while waiting for some bulletin, one over anxious filer wrote that he was changing the html page number (1360 etc) from the old bulletin link in hope he may get the newly made bulletin page.

[qesehmk]

Hey take it easy. We shouldn't be afraid of inconvenient truths. Sorry if I contributed to the hysteria.

I wouldn't remove the posts. But you being the author can easily do it if you wish so. My "advice" is if in your judgement teh information is worthwhile then don't remove it.

Q - Please remove all my posts on this topic..

Guys, this forum is very clean and peaceful....let's just keep it this way. Emotions are running high and we are all in the same boat....please, let us all be respectful to each other. Thank you !!!!

Yeah I think we will need to wait one more day. If they know what to do, why delay the inevitable. I think putting on a website for them must be also a process, where it needs to go through several stamps of approval, review, testing (hopefully) on a test server before making it out to actual production. At some point, it has to come out of administration into the IT department, which would take time. Since their mechanism is always to put on static pages, it's not a dynamic page which fetches information from some data source. This is my positive take on this.

Meanwhile the information is already out on wire to consulates around the world, which when beginning the next business day, may update it a priori to commencing the day.

I have felt the frustration of loosing a post too. For that reason, after having finished typing the post, I copy it to another text editor before hitting the submit button. :-)

we had same delay for June vb (released on may 11th). Dates moved from may 06 to oct 06 (5 months). I hope there will be similar movement for the aug vb as they got it delayed so long already 07/11.

Itna complex naa hai ek page update karna. They have a CMS where they go and update the html of the page, click save, and done. Page loads and gets cached preventing HTTP 500s and 404s

Q

I hope you give the news even if it's not as per expectations

[qesehmk]

I always have and wish everybody does the same and will continue to do the same. For the simple reason that it avoids hype and establishes better clarity which is what our objective is.

Thanks Q, you rock

Monica, Kanmani
all the calculations/predictions of our forum came pretty close and I think we need to depend on that than any non-backed up information.

i don't get why people are so anxious over the VB. If they really want to be the first to know then subscribe to it. All this hand wringing is not healthy. I have a PD of Aug 2008 so I know i have to wait. But all I can do is prepare if it does get current. A few hours or even days is not going to change reality one way or another.

vizcard, the bulletin subscription is very untrustworthy. Many times the alert comes days late, many times it does not at all, and many times, I have got spam from people trying to assume the government identity and sent me fake bulletin for me to click on it. This is from my personal experience.

Apart from the excitement etc, the main thing is scheduling medicals appointment for people who have not applied yet. plus getting other documents in order.

[chirag.n]

vizcard,

i am a subscriber to the visa bulletin...and the last time it came to me a weeks after it was posted on the DOS site....

there's no need to be confrontational about this. we all are human beings and have innate desires and aspirations...you are entitled to yours and i am entitles to mine...
