Lynn,

consider yourself lucky, our I-130 is filed on Aug 2006 and no approval/denial yet. The priority date is approcaing and we are stuck. I wish I had the luck to know if they approved or denied it as soon as we applied, so we could have re-applied again in case of denial. So far it seems that our application is lost somewhere in uscis.... :crying:

Thanks Admire and mitch, you guys are right, about 16 days to go to our interview. It's exciting although, I've been refusing to let myself get too excited until I know for sure that a visa has been issued to her. I hope to be able to share some good news with the house as soon as the interview is over :)
