Congratulations! It's so good to hear that!

Hi MarineBaby, how are you? So now you are already in the states? I don't get on here for a while, and today, when I get back here, I saw a good news from BexandAlan, that's so wonderful!!! I am so happy for her. Last time your case got approved, and today it's Bex's case... Wow, I am so looking forward for tomorrow!!! :star:

Thanx guys!

Oh Ling I wish I had the visa lol. At this stage we haven't really achieved that much in terms of the actual journey - Alan's petition has now been approved at VSC so we will have to wait for our case to be sent to London and then we'll submit a few more forms, I'll go for my medical and then my interview and THEN we will know if I can have the little stamp that says I can come and stay for 90 days! What a palava!

We are so fortunate our application went through so quickly, my heart and all my good vibes goes out to everyone still waiting.

Have a great day everyone!

Hi, Sarah! How are you doing? I notice the your timeline and first thing grabbed my eyes are the year 2025, and I thought to myself, OMG and I just got so confused... and it finally makes sense to me when I read what's following that... and then I just feel the same here... It really takes forever for USCIS to approve the case, thinking about if they hired me to work for them, I probably will approve 100 cases a day... :lol: expecially the military spouses cases, all get approved... I just spent time with my husband together on his days off, now he gets back to work shift again... I just feel like I am sitting here getting old for waiting for the visa approval...

You're STILL waiting????? I thought you applied for the expedite. USCIS need a kick up the wotsit!!!! Ling, your Husband, if he can, needs to chase it up .... if not, he needs to ask his Commander if he can do it

Hi Sarah,

I see you're still waiting for the approval. Did you file for an expedite?

Person

Not for a military expedite, but we did apply for an expedite for other reasons (death and terminal cancer) .... we were denied.

Not if you've already applied sadly. You need to follow Matt's link I gave in the other reply I gave to your question, and your case should go through.

thanks sarah... about that.. u think its possible to apply the DCF even we apply in states in vermount..

Ling

Hey Ling ^o^ I am pretty good. I am not in the States right now. In fact, I was just there for a week before my husband was deployed. Now, he is in Iraq for the third time, so I think I can handle myself better now. I am back in my home country in Taiwan. I will move back to the States in July, preparing for schools to start. I'll begin my Ph.D. this fall at FSU in Tallahassee FL. So, Sarah, I won't be too far away from Atlanta (like 4 hours). Don't forget about me when you and Bex are going to hang out :).

Ling, I hope your case will go through smoothly. Try all likely and unlikely approaches to expedite your case. Good luck. BTW, I saw your picture on myspace last month. You look great :) I think your about my age...I'm 24. Am I right?

Third time .... yuk! you poor thing. Mine's done it twice so far, it's not nice.

I hope you've got tons of support.

Ph.D? wow, you clever girl! I'm looking forward to hearing about how it goes. The fact you're in Florida is great! No, Bex and I won't be far away .... we must all definately hook up when we're over there.

Ling I agree, you must try everything! There is no reason for them to be dragging their heels on this. This matter falls under their guidelines of expedite for 'National Interest' .... if your Husband is worrying about the visa he's not got his mind on his job which affects the mission which in turn affects National Interest.

Ruby, it's nice to see you back again Hope you're well xx

Do you have contact with your Husband's 'Rear Detachment Commander' ???

This is the Commander who is left behind to help the families etc while the Company is in Iraq

..... do you have contact with your FRG?

Hi everyone!!! It's 4:26am here for me, but I am just so exicted about what I got, and wanna post it here and share with you all.

Our Military Expedite Request has been approved and its notice is in the mail today!!! :) We applied for that on Apr 7, and it takes so long, and I thought it was denied, almost gave up... Well, on May 7, the guy in USCIS already called my husband's parents for more addition information they need from us since they were reviewing our case, but they were out for trip, and then on May 9 - Military Spouses Appreciation Day, my husband finally got the access to his email and found an email from USCIS asked for more addition information and my husband faxed them as soon as he got their email. and tonight, my husband found another email from them notice us our expedite request has been approved on May 12!!! - Mmm, the email sent to my husband, and he doesn't get access to internet too often... and today since I subscribed to USCIS Website for my updated case status, I got an email from them tell us that they already have the Approval Notice in the mail!!!

Oh, I am so exicted about this now, was still wondering who would be the next one to be approved, and just couldn't believe it's ME!!! Hey, all ladies or gents here, just keep trying every way you could, and next one would be YOU!!!

And oh, what am I going to do next then?

Good Luck and Keep Trying !!!

Hi MarineBaby, you're so great!!! Ph.D!!! OMG-I think I have to spend all my life to get it. :wacko: I am 1 year older than you, a quarter of a centry already... :lol: Mmmm, you and Sarah and Bex will be in Atlanta... I will be in Louisiana - not sure which city yet, cause my husand want a quiet place to live in... sometimes quiet will be nice, but sometimes it will be horrible especially when I am alone... :blink:

And I just got email noticed me my expedite request was approved!!!

Take Care
