Thanks everyone for all your Congratulations!

Yeah, I am still shocked at the speed at which the Vermont Service Center processed our case.

I was so scared sending it to them, I thought the only chance I had at a quick process was being transferred to California.

I have no idea how I got my NOA2 so quickly.

And I was in Germany visiting my wife from Feb 13th through 25th; if I had been home it could have been even quicker!

I labored over our applications; everything was as perfect as humanly possible. But still, I do not think that I can take all the credit for the speed in which I was processed.

I can only hope that I am not just some fluke, and that the visa process begins speeding up for everyone!

I just wanted to say, THANK YOU!

For all the helpful posts and answers you have provided me during my "VisaJourney".

Without your excellent shortcuts and countless helpful posts, I can only imagine how long this process would have taken.

A special thanks to James and LingChe for taking the time to create guides that have helped myself and so many others shorten the time apart from our loved ones.

Thank you very much, using your guides I was able to go from my NOA1 to Case Complete in 55 days! I would have never imagined it could be so fast--I am forever thankful.

Thanks Again,

Ray

Congratulations
