It really does go fast in my opinion. It will take you a while to get your case number, but after that it flies so make sure you have everything ready. It took me 16 days to get my case number, but that was a week ago today and now I've already sent my DS-3032 email, DS-3032 hard copy, AOS fee and AOS package. I do have to admit that waiting for the case number was starting to irritate me though. :whistle:

Yep, I just sent the template filled out that I sent to you. It has all of the information in it that they need. I didn't attach a PDF of it as it's not necessary, but I did read recently that someone else did that. I figured since I was sending the hard copy also, I'd just send them the filled out template.

the first 3 number means the ordinal day + 500. example: 605 means apr 15 (apr 15 is the 105th day + 500 = 605)

the last 3 number means the sequence of your case that day. example 002 (that means that your file was number 2 that day) mine is 011! :wacko:

"The guy" at the police certificate place came through today! I officially have no criminal record in Canada! Not that I'm surprised at all, but it's still a relief! I'll have to suck it up and pay the extra $40 for express or priority mail on Monday, so that my husband will be able to send the DS-230 off as soon as possible.

I'm glad "the guy" came through for you. That still cracks me up. lol That's just in the nick of time since you'll no doubt be sending in your DS-230 package next week. I know what you mean about the $40. My husband and I were just saying the other day that although the fees add up, it's the little stuff that adds up and really gets you - the shipping, the overnight mailing (17.50 in the US), the medical (which is outrageous), the police certificate, etc. Heck, I spent $35 just at the post office this week (17.50 for the DS-3032 and 17.50 for the AOS package). Not that $35 is going to break me, but it's the principal.
