Anything for anyone?? Maybe even a touch??

It's getting harder and harder to wait quietly - I went out and looked up couples who filed with VSC this past winter (December and earlier) and a large handful are still waiting for their I29 to be approved (of course some of them might not update their timeline)... I don't want to be in that boat... I envy the people that have waited for months without even calling USCIS to see what's going on. I think the February approvals are going to my head. Haha.

Honestly I think most of the ones who are 'straggling' behind are dormant on VJ now, although I know there are a couple still waiting, Someone posted a stats list yesterday, I read it somewhere.

As for the Jan/Feb approvals - I think they are about standard with their processing time now. Up to 60 days seems about right..
