Do you have any kids in your house?

Do you mean kids of my own, or just any kid in general that lives with me?

I don't have any kids, and the only minor that lives with me is my younger sister, who is claimed as a dependent by my dad.

Why do you ask? (just curious :whistle: )

As an August filer who is still waiting for God knows how long more :rofl: I wish everyone here speedy approvals. I hope you guys don't go through what we're going through and just a side note to all of you, having your file transferred to another service center is NOT a good thing as we all (CSC to TSC transfers) thought it was :rofl:

Thank you very much for your good wishes...I'm praying for you a approval soon and that NVC goes smooth sailing.. :thumbs: :thumbs:
