Finally, Rong and I have been approved! :dance::)

I just opened my email after arriving home from work and BAM!!

*** DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL ***

The following is the latest information on your case status

Receipt Number: LINXXXXXXXXXX

Application Type: I129F , PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status:

This case has been approved. On August 7, 2006, an approval notice was mailed. If 30 days have passed and you have not received this notice, you may wish to verify or update your address. To update your address, please speak to an Immigration Information Officer during business hours.

If you have questions or concerns about your application or the case status results listed above, or if you have not received a decision or advice from USCIS within the projected processing time frame*, please contact the National Customer Service Center.

Unbelievable!! Rong is on the webcam with me now and she is doing her Happy Dance!!

BRAVO!!! So what's the secret, what's the magic combination of things to do, who to pay off, etc???? No, seriously, glad to see another one done. Means maybe they are inching their way slowly down to the recalls on the bottom of the pile. From your timeline, it looks as though you had no recent touches???

You're right, no touches since we received a touch for the RFE! Then we get P2! Needless to say, Rong and I are STILL doing our Happy Dance! :-)
