Thanks, I love spreadsheets! shhhhh, dont tell anyone im a geek lol

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

Received GC 2009-04-01

Done for 3 years or 10 years. Haven't decided yet.

(I'm going for the IR-1 and blowing off the K-3. Even if it takes an extra couple months, it's worth it to not have to deal with USCIS again)

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

Note:

Please fill out I-130, wait 6 months for approval, then 3 more months for an interview. (Unless of course we've bombed your country into the stone age, then you qualify for expedited processing.)

Welcome to the USA!!!

I have added everyone who requested to be added and any updates, if you need more changes please tell me if something looks wrong. I have both CSC and VSC on there for a reason so that we can see who gets approved faster. Not that it will make any of us at VSC any happier when CSC approves faster; but it will give us an idea of what is going on. So, if anyone else wants to be added or updated then please drop your information here on this thread! Edited by ~Dream Love~
