Thanks guys. The questions asked were...

Who filed for you? (Husband) Have you been anywhere else but the US? (Yes) Congrats and take care!

That was it :)

POE will be when hubby is almost ready to get back to the US so I'm not sure exactly when yet. It will appear when the time comes closer though.

I wrote a consulate review yesterday afternoon :thumbs:

CONGRATS

********************************************************************************

....when it hurts to look back and you're scared to look ahead LOOK beside you and I'll be there.....

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Hey guys. I'm happy to report that after 3 hours of waiting I had my interview and it lasted all of 45 seconds. The CO was very nice and I had no problems at all. I'll write my review later on. Right now I am just sleepy and can't wait to tell hubby the good news. :dance:

Thank you to VJ and everyone here for being so nice and helpful. :thumbs:

Congrats.

Congratulations!!! I am just curious, did you go through a lawyer because I am looking at your timeline and things were processed very fast.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

I know you did request for expedited processing at VSC. Did you request another expedited processing at NVC or it was automatically granted due to the first one? Thanks
