You're killing me. I assume you're kidding. They wouldn't keep your passport if they didn't intend on sticking a visa in it. Relax and enjoy the ride.

I'd been waiting for this post, so I could say I told you so sir. See? Worried over nothing, and now you can look forward rather than worry about failing :) Congratulations! Now go get your flights booked and enjoy your new life :-)

This made me laugh. I've quit saying "I told you so" pretty much by now. EVERYBODY waiting freaks out. Then they become the ones saying "relax it will be fine" to the next lot. But nobody waiting ever believes it and chills. It amuses me when the super worriers start posting..."no problem...easy...will be fine." How easy it is to be on the other side of the Interview. :P

His post last week really made me feel for him and I'm so happy he got approved, though :-)

Mine changed to today's date too. The text underneath "ready" also changed. According to posters in this thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/481245-ceac-status-case-created-date-changed/

their visa was issued shortly after the date change :)
