The only thing I'm worried about is if they don't accept my RFE response because that happened to someone here on VJ for the same thing...but many others have been fine. We'll see!

If that was the case, they would tell you that there was not enough evidence or smth like that, and you would be able to see it on the website (since you sent your RFE quite some time ago already).

I know it's easier said than done, but I don't think you should worry about it.

P.S. Congratulations Cate!!

do you think my spouse being in the military is a factor as to why i got quite a speedy processing?

it could be a reason but i really dont know. i read too that there is a special number for the military petitioners to call to ask for the status of their petitions for their spouses/kids.

i just pray all the time. prayers help a lot.

to all those who are still waiting, just be patient as te Lord's blessing will come your way soon. :)

Maybe a reason, but I think from what I have read, that expediting the process applies upon military request. I don't even know if it is an option to expedite for AOS. It may just apply to visa application.
