Well I promised to keep you informed and to our wonderful surprise we were notified that we were approved yesterday the 8th June. This has come completely out of the blue and we are over the moon.

We are so pleased that I did not have to attend an interview in London to have the I-130 approved and then have to travel back there again for the visa interview. Thank you Durham and USCIS for adjudicating and approving the petition and saving us from being even longer apart.

Best Wishes to all
