I still can't say that the expedite was approved. Early approval? It took 5 months and 1 week that's far from early in my opinion. I actually took another VJ member advise and stayed proactive. I put in three service request, I called my congress person, and I called USCIS myself every week. Basically got on their nerves. LOL I think that had more to do with my approval that just the expedite. Everytime I called about the expedite they said that I-130's are hardly approved for expedite. I just feel that it's finally May filers time for approvals.

Congratulations, though.
