Hey Everyone,

I have some great news. My wife's petitions have been approved!!! Both the I-130 and I-129F. The NOA2's are from yesterday. I still can't believe it!!!

What an emotional swing!!! My wife and I had our biggest fight yesterday. I called the VSC yesterday too and they said it could take 30 to 60 more days before your hear anything. I couldn't have had a more worse feeling going to bed last night. I woke up this morning, checked my e-mail and there they were!! They approved the petitions the same day an officer there told me to wait 1-2 more months. What a turn of events!!

I know there's still a journey left ahead, but this is such a weight off our shoulders. I want to thank everyone who's helps me on this journey so far, particularly CJ Vasani, Khaleda, K2USA, Yoda1165, Narina (notimeforhaterz), CJGator, and many more whom I've forgotten to name.

I wish everyone the best of luck for quicker approvals. Feel free to message me any time for any questions.

Regards,

Sanket

woohoo! That's great.

You know, everytime my husband and i have had an argument, we get a touch lol

So we joke that we should have a big blow out and then our approval will come. :D

Congrats,

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!

I'll allow SraCastillo andy roy to get approved before me, then is my turn. I've decided. has to be before 20 when my husband comes visits me, so he can send first NVC package before coming here.
