Oy, guys. I totally disappeared on everyone for awhile, there. Between my fiance visiting, finals with school, the holidays, getting BACK to school and preparing all of the stuff we'll need for the next step in the process, I have been incredibly swamped. It looks like I've missed quite a bit, too, so I'll get caught up:

First, I'd like to say: Jim, I hope your visit went well!

Secondly, I'd like to welcome all of the newest additions to our fun little waiting group! I hope your journies are swift and painless. <3

Thirdly, Sajori - You are more than welcome to post here with us. :) We're all in this together; I just like organization, haha.

And, finally, the biggest thing of all:

Skparker -- MANY congratulations to you on your approval! That is so fantastic, and I can't believe you were approved so quickly! That's amazing. I really hope that the consolate process goes quickly! Best of luck to you. <3

GoBears -- Hurray and congratulations to you and yours! You must be so excited for this. :) I hope your interview goes well.

Charles/Gabrilla -- Haha, welcome AND congratulations! Looks like you won't be waiting too terribly much longer now. :) Congratulations.

Mae232 - Congratulations! I can't wait to hear more details about the rest of your journey! I wish you the best of luck.

I cannot believe we're seeing approvals this fast. This is an amazing trend that I hope keeps up. :)

Anyway - I tried to log into my USCIS account today. A month or so ago, it told me that my password would be expiring and, of course, I said "I'll fix it later." I didn't, and now it's telling me that my password is no longer valid. Ugh! And, I can't remember the number combination I used for my security question [i always provide the answer and a few numbers, because some of those questions are SO easy to anyone who knows you well enough. If you include numbers, it's safer -- Backfired on me, though, haha], so now I think I have to re-register. Ah, well. I was able to do a case search and I don't see any touches or changes. So.. looks like I'm still waiting. I can stand the wait, though. I need to save money for my engagement ceremony. :D

The only doom that's looming is you loving me to death,

So I'll give you a sec to catch your breath.

Congratulations! Oh, that is so exciting! I know you were really worried about it, as you had a very specific time frame for your wedding, so maybe that'll happen, after all! Yay. <3<3<3

We received an RFE today :( and filed through a lawyer!!! What's wrong with him, using lawyer wasn't it supposed to help?????

from all the books i read before we filed....we concluded that using a lawyer will not help us one bit. if we had any questions on the petition, it was answered on this website by knowledgable people that have already gone through the process.

you would think that a lawyer is supposed to help, but surprisingly enough, all i have read is that lawyers do not help one bit (most of the time). lawyers like to take their time and usually try and get as much money as they can out of you. (THIS IS WHAT I HAVE READ! i am in no way responsible for what i have read that others have posted).

in the end, i would never recommend using a lawyer for the visa process, but instead asking questions on this website.

yes, its a pain in the butt with all the organizing of papers and evidence, but it was worth it because we got approved in 73 days! good luck with your RFE and i would suggest just doing everything yourself....that way you know exactly what is going out. good luck!!!! :thumbs:

Darling, feel blessed that you got an RFE - That means someone was looking at your case, and when you turn in what is requested, you'll get an approval within the next few weeks. <3 Don't sweat it.

Edit to say: It probably won't even take "a few weeks." It could take less than a week, but I would keep the "a few weeks" in mind so you don't go crazy.
