LOL...this has got to be the longest, drawn out process I've ever been though... :wacko:

yeah Liz, I think this process is the hardest thing I've ever had to endure...but I have to admit...it's much easier than K1

Uaaauuu!!!! Congratulations!!

We got approved!!!! Yay!!!! It was short and sweet, we got there just in time. Got called in, sworn in and the lady was very nice and made us comfortable. She said: "We'll go thru ur applications and then if u have any questions u can ask me. Will be done in 20 min not more, it's time for lunch and i'm hungry" we just laughed :)

She went thru all of it name, address, phone number... all we were saying is yes and smiling. Then she went on to -

where did u meet?

when did u get married?

have u met each others families?

where do u work?

what are ur plans for the future?

After all that she pulled out a letter of approval and congratulated us, i couldn't believe we were done! She didn't ask to see any pictures or ask any personal questions, said that we should get my card in 3 weeks and send us on our way :)

So, it was a good experience and i wish all of u the same :)

Thx for all the help and support from VJers and good luck to everybody.

yeah Liz, I think this process is the hardest thing I've ever had to endure...but I have to admit...it's much easier than K1

I hope things will go well for you and Liz, and for everyone who is still waiting. There might just be a lot of backlogs in CSC right now. Who really knows?

I don't want to hurt anybody, but I just want to share this thought. When most Feb filers got their cases transferred to CSC before, I was so envious of them that they didn't had to undergo an interview. It seems like a golden ticket, and not having that golden ticket to CSC is sad news. When I got an interview appointment, I felt not special at all but still grateful this journey was almost over. Now, members with CSC transfers aren't happy than they used to do. It seemed like the world turned upside down.

I am really sorry you had to endure this especially with all the updates from those who got interviewed like me.

I am actually wanted to shout how happy I am to get approved today, but reading your messages makes me feel your pain. A little over a month , I had no updates from USCIS regarding my EAD, so I understood how it felt to wait for the unknown. I really hope you will get updates soon.

Again, I don't know if I worded my feelings right. I'm not a native English speaker, and sorry if I may have offended anyone. Godspeed everyone.

Thanks and your feelings were conveyed perfectly, but please share your approval with excitement...despite our lack of progress we share the same joy of everyone's success.

As for being transferred early in the process, I don't think any of us really understood exactly what that meant or USCIS reasoning behind deciding to transfer our cases. From reading other prior VJ AOS threads it seemed that being transferred was the way to go. It is very clear that even though VJ gives us great advice and support through this process, everyone's case is handled differently. We were not trying to dampen your experience but this thread is here so that we can share the good and the bad experience of this process. So our heartfelt CONGRATS!!!goes out to you and your SO.

Take care and God Bless

Danu, please update spreadsheet. I know you r bz with job interview.

Will do, just had a busy few days! Been working part time for my FIL to help him get plaques ready for the graduating students, and today I had a job interview. I got the job, but will probably continue to look as well as taking this one. Its a good job, just too heavily reliant on commissions for my comfort.
