VISA APPROVED!!!!! :dance::dance::dance:

It took him literally HALF AN HOUR! I'd thought that having the I-134 frontloaded was stupid - the only thing they asked him for were his police clearance and birth certificate!! He was out the door within an hour of going in!! They asked him NO QUESTIONS, just congratulated him, told him to pay the courier fee, and said he should have it next week between Wednesday and Friday!! :wow:

I'm so excited!!! WE'RE GETTING MARRIED IN A MONTH!!! B-)(F)(L)
