Thanks. I thought so! The whole idea of having to put in a "service request" is absurd, anyway. I "requested" your services when I filed the damn application. And you agreed to provide that service w

Congrats, Gavin + Heather!

There was also an approval from my day (received 2/21) today!

Would anyone else like to share the receipt #s you're monitoring? Of course, if we do that, then we could end up posting duplicate reports for the same petitions, but I guess that wouldn't be a horrible thing. I'd really like to add some more to my list, particularly from mid-February and later. I have some from another VJer (thanks, Kattze!), so that brings the collection I'm monitoring to:

Feb. 1 [note: receipt date, not NOA1 date] (27 petitions)

Feb. 2 (75)

Feb. 3 (13)

Feb. 6 (24)

Feb. 13 (31)

Feb. 21 (215)

No approvals or RFEs in any of these today except for the 2/21 one I mentioned above. Grrr.

I'll PM you my list... I've already PM'ed it to a few people, so I'm sure there are duplicates, but it's always nice to have a more complete picture even if taken with a grain of salt :)

It seems like they are pushing through some approvals (at least from CSC) Our I-129F had a receipt of 2/6 and they approved it today. Got the text while I was writing her tonight. Made for a good start for her work day at least! :thumbs:

Thank you, thank you everyone. Very happy, but a tinge of sadness for everyone that's still waiting. I know that this has been the worst thing for me, I'm OK waiting for things if there's definite time or a way of seeing progress, but when you have nothing and just have to wait - I find that very hard and dislike it immensely.

I'll be able to relax once I know the US embassy in the UK has our package :-)

May everyone get approved soon!
