Now I see there has been (Lisa), ready for some more!! Good luck to everyone still waiting, I know how horrible it can be! Prayers all around.

Thanks Tina!

Nice to see you and hear that life is awesome!!

I'll admit that actually living together is a lot harder than doing it over the computer (in some ways), and we have had our issues and arguements. But yes, life is awesome!! The wait was worth it.

Jackie, Godiva's for you my dear! Now if only I could get a pic of them here.........

Hey Lisa...I'm so happy you have the ticket booked...that is so amazing! When will he be headed this way?

I didn't e-mail the embassy. I'm really trying not to jinx myself. I'm not even sure how I should word it. Any ideas?

Thanks....Happy Monday everyone!

Amanda,

I would just write and say something like:

Can you please tell me if you have received our paper CR1 file yet? I believe it was received on 4/12/9. (if it was your package that Zarqa found on dhl).

Thank you for your time.

Keep it simple, no biggie

He's coming on May 7th!!!!!!

OK I used the #3 option and she was like, you want to change your address? LOL. I said no I want to check on my case. I'm guessing 3 is the only way to get to an operator anyway. She put in a service request for me, but I had to hear the lecture about how 6 months is not a promise, just an estimate. :-P And then she tells me not to call back for 45 days. Oh well, at least I did something. I'm thinking the service request reply is going to tell me that my petition is pending.

ya, its 3 and then 3 again... Im just glad you got the service request in!! I hope it means good news for you swiftly Childress

Me too! Oh was I supposed to push 3 twice? I got a live person immediately after pushing 3 once. It didn't give me another option after that. Anyway, I got to talk to a real person! I'm so excited! LOL. Maybe they'll look at my petition and say "ohhh we forgot about this one! Let's process it ASAP!"

yeeks, we had our final pep talk and DH got all the papers out and made crazy stacks all over the netcafe table and oh it made me so nervous. He looked like a paper elephant came and pooped on him. And now I'll go to work and then be home just in time for the nailbiting hours of his interview. And honestly, I'm only prepared for them to say yes......you'll get your visa in a few days.

I got an email reply to my service request. I just want to know if this is just their automated reply and they are going to look at my case, or are they confused and they think I'm the beneficiary??? They even state in the email that the caller indicated they are applicant or petitioner, yet their answer says they can't give info to anyone other than petitioner. I"m confused. I've deleted the private information that was in the original email.

On 04/20/2009 you, or the designated representative shown below, contacted us about your case. Some of the key information given to us at that time was the following:

However, information given to someone other than the affected party, such as the beneficiary, which relates to the specific processing or adjudication of a particular petition/application, is prohibited by the Privacy Act and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy.
