SMS text Visa will arrive Monday 4th Aug Finally!!!!!!!!

[lifebegins 0]

I just got a text message after work to say my visa will be delivered on Monday 4th Aug , by sms courier service.

I feel only now i can take a deep breath and relax , and actually talk about it!

My interview was on 7th July , and although the guy said i was approved sending in W2 and 1040 ,which my SO posted to me on the same day (god love him).

Then they sent back a DS 156 to be signed which i think i was meant to sign in front of one of the interview officers??

I just couldnt be happy about it , was anyone else unconvinced it was actually happening until the received that little but very important thing in their passport??

I have seen so many emotional sides to me i never thought existed!

So..... now i have until 4th Sept to get myself sorted , oh and little matter of a going away party to organise!

AND YOUR ALL INVITED! BECAUSE WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF ALL YOU GUYS I THINK I COULD HAVE WENT MAD!

(MAYBE I DID A LITTLE)!

I know this is not the end of the journey and more paper work is in front of me , but this that i feel right now is elation and i wish you all the same on your journey

Congratulations! Enjoy your going away party and the beginning of a new chapter in your lives! And.. enjoy your elation - because though there is more paperwork, you've worked hard to get this far (you both have) and you have earned that feeling of joy!

Congratulations.

We are anxiously waiting the SMS text. Interview was last Tuesday. They said conditionally approved because the computers were down, whatever that means to their process. So we were estimating Monday or Tuesday delivery. I called the Dept of State Friday and asked what they showed on their system. She said, "you had an interview on the 29th and it says you were a 'no show'." Oh great! After I told her we were both there and everything was fine but the computers were down. She said she could look in a different place. Then she said you're done, your visa was issued and printed on the 31st. So God bless the DOS because they are so nice and seem to have the best access to information. Anyway, I feel better hearing the visa was issued and guess it will be Tuesday since no text message today.
