AOS approved today!!! :dancing: :dancing: :dancing: I'm over the moon :-). NOA2 type euphoria has hit again.

And here I thought I was having a sh**ty day. Came back from an outpatient surgery to fine an email from CRIS. YAY!!! Thank goodness I'm already on high otherwise I'd really miss that celebratory drink :-).

It looks like the next round of approval has started so I wouldn't be surprised to see some more by the end of the week.

Good luck everybody !!

That's awesome, congratulations!!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeee, that's WONDERFUL! Coincidentally, we had a touch today :D. :: Hugs! ::

Still looking for a car. All the ones I've looked at have been owned by crazy people, and they have hidden defects...thank goodness for mechanics. Today's lunatic was a hardcore republican, and on the way to the mechanic, I got to hear all about how Obama's ruining the economy. While we're all entitled to my opinion, there's something frightening about a guy who decides to undo his seatbelt to answer the phone, and then resumes ranting while the poor driver (me) cowers behind the wheel (I was driving the car to the mechanic with Knight's dad driving in front). The guy was literally yelling, so I wisely kept my opnions to myself for the sake of surviving the journey.

Hi guys, long time no see :D

I've been so busy jobhunting and sorting thigns out and natrually everything that goes with immigrating.

I got my EAD on October 2nd after just 2 weeks when I sent back an RFE. (Forgot the W2s, oops.)

My case was transfered to CSC on 25th September... does this mean we're likely to not have to have an interview?

Civil ceremony, SSN, getting HPV shot and Biometrics went super smooth for me :) Yay.

Hi Everyone ...

Congrats on approvals!

I got my EAD in the post day before yesterday and got my SS number today. The chap in the SS office was really nice - I didn't realise that I could work while waiting for my SS card to come through ....

I've been busy filling in job applications for the last two days, so am looking forward to a relaxing, long weekend in Branson, Missouri ... I hope the weather there is warmer than it's been here - it's actually been snowing blah!

Better get to bed ... we're leaving in a few hours .... :D

Have a great weekend everyone!

Graz Moira, Emma and Shaz! :: Huggums ::, that's AWESOME news. :D Seems as though the sun has got his hat on. Fingers crossed that I'll start hearing about my AOS, but I suspect that they might be putting me through checks like they did for K-1 (I'm sure I've said this already).

In any case, woohoo for everyone!

Eeeeeeee, omg!

Got an interview letter for the 20th October! Ahhhhhhhhh! What do I take? It says just to take the letter, my passport, and any supporting evidence in support of the application, like joint back account statements! Do I need anything else? It doesn't mention my birth certificate! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

WOAH! They didn't give you much time!

anything with both names on, anything with the seperate names on, but showing you live at the same address. Pictures of your wedding....

Good luck sweetie! If they didn't ask for the birth cert....it's because they had all of those things in the application you put together in support of your AOS.
