So I woke up this morning, checked my emails which I always do first thing (have been slightly obsessive about it recently..!), and there were the words I having been hoping to see for the past 5 months "your I129F petition for fiancee visa has been approved" or words to that effect :D

I screamed so loud my mum ran up the stairs thinking I'd had a heart attack...!!

Thank goodness for this forum, that's all I can say.

I'm sure I'm going to have a lot of questions in the run up to the interview in London...lol!

The last few days in particular have been a real struggle, was feeling really despondent, but now the worse is over, and the best is yet to come :-)

One step closer to marrying the love of my life

Congratulation, :dance: i am happy for you.God Bless us Always.... :thumbs:

You guys do know that VSC is gonna wake up one day soon and just pound out all their petitions in like... a day. I think they are just building up a bit of steam and pressure, and then they're gonna skyrocket. Just wait, you'll see!

Then everyone will be saying "Poo on CSC!" They'll do this just to keep us on our toes. :)
