Salams - it has been a long time - Allahu Alim... I spoke to the CO and she told me that initially it was in-house processing in ISL b/c my fiance had visited several other countries (not US) in recent years so they had to check in w/ them... I guess they were also "clearances" of sorts... and then when I went to visit him in April, we went to the embassy thinking it would be done, but they requested his full set of prints... now we're waiting for the FBI print check and one security clearance ... I pray this ends soon :( ... we want to start our lives together - khaire insha'Allah, it'll happen when its meant to happen.

I know... we didn't have an SAO check as far as I'm aware of ... I was just wondering how Michigan found out about his...

speaking of which, when I was in Pakistan I realized how common Javed was. I saw like 50 store names starting with Javed, met alot of Javeds, and when I was in Dubai they had a sign for Javed (you know one of those taxi guys holding the sign) and when I was leaving they had a sign for Javed in Karachi International Airport. Crazy how common that name is! I was suprised since i've never heard it in the U.S.A.
