Today my husband had his interview and was approved!!!!!!

We are finally done with all the paperwork, paying fees, and waiting!! (at least until citizenship...)

Thanks to all of you who gave advice or comments!

There were also no problems with the co-sponsor's I-864, despite the fact that he had recently lost his job (and used assets instead).

Woot!!! Congratulations to you both!!! That's gotta be a helluva relief.

So when is he coming over?

We are definitely very relieved! He is only coming over in summer, as I am still studying in Moscow and need to finish my semester first. But now we can actually buy tickets and make plans!

Excellent, glad to hear it. We don't hear about a lot of approvals these days in the RU forum, so this is very welcome news. Поздравляю! (sorry if the spelling or declension is off there, I'm doing it from my Swiss cheese memory :D )

Awesome! Good luck in the rest of your Visa Journey!

Ensure your beneficiary makes and brings with them to the States a copy of the DS-3025 (vaccination form)

If the government is going to force me to exercise my "right" to health care, then they better start requiring people to exercise their Right to Bear Arms. - "Where's my public option rifle?"
