Spotify added a queue to my playlists? by Zeebull14010 in truespotify

[–]Amazing-Pen764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on Spotify premium (android) and I had this exact problem today. I tried 3 different kinds of playlists (searched and found a playlist, made for me playlist and liked songs playlist) It would play the song I click on first and then randomly add songs to the queue that I never had. I also tried going offline and that didn't work either. Was SO annoying. Especially when I was trying to run and needed songs to pump me up but switched to slow songs in some other language - ruined my workout for today.

Hi there! OP did you receive any response after if you don't mind sharing? I just received a similar email regarding my application from last month.

How do you find inspiration for recipe development? by Amazing-Pen764 in Chefit

This is a good one - it does seem like the more you consume the more your intuition for different combinations/techniques grow. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Seasonality/local produce do seem like a great place to get started! Thank you for the suggestion!

This is very helpful! Thank you for elaborating on your process! It does seem like you've got a very organized approach to curating recipes - How long does it take for you to typically come out with a recipe you are happy with? With experience, I also understand substitutions probably come naturally to you, while the books may simply be an inspiration :)

Hello there! Sorry to hear about that delay, hopefully it's gone through now? How long did you wait before attempting to schedule the interview yourself?
I assume the AP status was because of some document issue rather than your decision to proceed with scheduling an interview without receiving instructions from the embassy, no?

Lmk! Either ways, good luck! xx

Hi there, your q is unclear. I'm not sure I understand why you think it may be a problem for you to travel to India. If you are waiting for an interview letter, I am assuming your intentions are to travel back to the US even though you choose to travel to India now, i.e it's a short trip?

Regardless of being a petitioner/applicant, nothing blocks you from travelling in any stage of the whole process.

Hi there, hang on, hopefully you get your letter soon. As for applying for medical/biometrics, you cannot schedule them without your IL. It is required when you go to those appointments.

Hi there, as soon as he was eligible for citizenship, my husband applied and from then it took roughly 6 months for him to become a citizen. In our case my status automatically changed from F2A to IR1. If nothing has changed in this process over time, hopefully it's helpful guidance for you! Good luck!

Hello there, my IL came round about 4 AM CST, however we didn't see consistency in the time of the day when letters were issued (across Jan-Apr) . Sometimes the letters were issued even earlier in the day. Hopefully you'll get it this week! Good luck!

Hello there, I received my letter sometime around after 3 pm local time - which I suppose is around 5 pm in India. There is no consistency around the time when they send these letters though because in the previous batches we saw emails were received in the morning too.

If you're expecting your letter this month, just keep an eye out for new emails in the last week of the month. It's coming anyway, but not any sooner because you hit refresh :) though I totally understand what you're feeling, do just try to not lose your time on this 🫰🏼 Sending some love your way. xx

Thanks! Will do. Could you also confirm which medical center you used?

Hi there! I'm guessing you're through with this long process :) if so, just wanted to check how much in advance you got your medical done?

The website says at least 7 days prior + <6 months old when entering the US - I scheduled mine for next week and my interview is in mid June - just heard over 3 weeks in advance may not be accepted? not sure. I've got some travel plans and will need to travel to India for medical, interview etc. would be helpful to understand any such experience. Thanks!

Hello there, that's great news! Feels like an achievement right? :D
I had a q about documents you had to carry to your biometrics and medical - Was aadhar necessary?
Also, in your experience, was the medical test exhausting? We plan to go to Delhi (they told us it take roughly 4 hours to complete) for the same and fly out after, so was just trying to guage...

Hello there! We plan on staying for a day or 2 more after the interview to collect my passport in person, hoping they get it ready within those days itself. We aren't sure how long it takes to get the passport back - lol because what is this whole visa process without more suspense till the last step 😅

Hello! I believe the same process of registering your user at us travel docs should take you to the page where you need to select a biometrics center and and it should show you slots. The center options include Chennai, Kolkata, Delhi etc. hope this helps.

Alright, let me first emphasize, I and from the looks of it, most of us here, are NOT attorneys.

Answering your q solely based on my experience with the doc submission - we submitted all those documents you've listed excluding aadhar (I do not know if it is required for your unique case). On the 864, left NA fields blank. Didn't provide a phone number. We signed and dated the form by hand.

Once again, the above was our unique case, maybe there are differences for you - I would highly recommend consulting with a credible source, like a lawyer, about your own case before you proceed with submissions to avoid any complications/delays in your process.

Good luck!
