Thank you God, Thank you friends, and Thank you VJ!!!!

Our I-130 was approved through the CSC in 39 days. I don't even know what to say..we are in shock.

We don't even have our papers together for the next step, we thought we had months...

Thanks again everyone, and I hope you all have amazingly quick approvals.

Nothing personal, I congratulate you,

but discrepancy in cases make me cringe.

I've 0 touches in 250 days.....

P.s. I am venting sorry

I understand your frustration. I don't understand myself what has our case going through so quickly. I can tell you we prepared for almost a year before we submitted our applications. Our applications were very thorough, and we included things that were not required. We went with official translations, and our lawyer put together a very impressive package. I don't know if that was why, but it could not have hurt.

I am sorry for your wait, and I hope you hear soon. Nothing the CSC does seems to make sense, and we will now have to get through the Cairo Embassy.... our journey is far from done.

Congrats.. :dance: Just want to ask if there is an expedite request for your case or none?

no expedite request, we are just as shocked as everyone else!

Congrats. That was a fast approval. Goodluck with the rest of your journey.

thank you to everyone for your congrats!! And Shawna, you are still my hero :star:

HUGE Congratulations!!!

I know there are a lot of us waiting to get through the door...but we really do have to celebrate that progress continues no matter what pace,

and that another stack of paper has been moved off the desk of a good adjudicator. Maybe it sets the bar for other adjudicators, maybe it

gets our petition closer to someone's desk. In my mind, all approvals are good for all of us.

Congrats again. Wish we could be there celebrating with you.

We have almost the same timeline. There is also a lawyer involved and we submitted more than enough evidences. The papers were properly arranged and sent accordingly. But there is still a big difference.. You are in CSC and we are stuck in VSC! :bonk:

I promise to love you in good times and in bad, with all I have to give and all that I am, in the only way I know how -- completely and forever......
