Tomorrow could be a good day for someone...

Our timeline:

2/88: We met in Sydney, Australia at a youth hostel! He's Finnish, I'm American-both were in our early 20s at the time and fresh out of college (so couldn't afford to visit each other's countries after that!). We had a three-day romance, then went our separate ways. He actually was going to Sydney a week later, but decided at the last minute to cut his trip short in another country and go early. Wow.

1988-1998: Wrote "snail mail" letters/sent Xmas cards, but lived our separate lives. I married someone else, divorced in 2006...he lived with someone for years and then that ended.

10/08: Because of a series of random life events, I Googled my Finn Man and found him (but no link to his email, and the website his name was on was in Estonian so I couldn't even read it!). It took me two weeks to find a link to someone else, who forwarded my email to him (we were both single at the time thankfully!!!!). The email went to his spam folder but he happened to check it that day and responded back to me immediately! This was after 10 years of no contact and almost 21 years of not seeing each other after we first met.

11/08-5/09: We traveled back and forth to visit each other. Love at first (second?) sight!

7/09: Married in Helsinki, Finland...after meeting randomly 21 1/2 years ago and finding each other again!!!!!

8/13/09: I-130 sent!!!!!!!!!

Rest is on my timeline!

Thanks Dan!

Oh Kaus, that just sucks. It seems so random, and definitely not in order. August is moving fast while you earlier filers are waiting. I'm sorry...it just makes no sense.

I wonder if UCSIS has updated the way they process applications.

I wonder how many of the people who have gotten really speedy responses used the G-325a that was only 1 page.

I know I did. I wonder if the 4 page one takes longer to have approved.

Just a thought.

Still putting all of you in the path of my positive thoughts.

I highly, highly doubt that has anything to do with it. The 4 page is 4 copies of the same thing, just one page for each section (adjudicator, NVC, embassy, file).

The speedy responses are due to CSC having been given 30000 applications from VSC - and all new applications are being sent to CSC.

Montreal: BEAT!!! Approved!!!!!

I did a one-page, so here's to hoping you are correct in your theory (for my sake, at least).

Gosh, if that's just the extra they got from VSC, how many did they have initially?? And how many of these are immigrant visas, work etc, anybody know?
