What kind of Friday is this without SIF? :angry: I demand to know if they started drinking already at NVC.... Also I was thinking of volunteering my help in sorting the mail. I am not that talented but by my humble calculations I decided that I could do it in under 9 days :angry::angry::angry: I get a feeling that the extra people NVC hired are janitors..... :bonk:

So far I have received everything by email so getting a BIG package doesn't seem right especially since it's not the one I want. :devil: 2 more hrs to go at work before i find out what it is...Wonder when I should call the embassy to see if they have our case??

NOW! lol.. or start calling next week - Cuz Im gonna be following you like a stalker seeing how your process goes! hee hee

Oh Lord hear the prayers of your daughter.....Amen..

:blush: I seriously wouldnt worry about a transposed number. Which tax form was it and did the IRS accept it? If they accept it, then no worries. Typos are nothing. Its no cause for alarm. I have a good feeling.. I'm no Sachinky, but I do feel like I could be one of her diciples and therefore have some divine 6th senses bout these things... :innocent:
