I will add to the good news! My husband got his visa approved today! He has to go back on Monday to pick up his passport and envelope! I haven't had the chance to have a lengthy convo with him about the interview but he did mention that they grilled him about our relationship. I'm gonna ask him for details later and post again!

Anyway, it's a good day!

also, a bit of good news for you Saylin...my wife just received her social security card two days ago..it only took a little over two weeks from POE! It seems to be very fast. We checked the box on the ds-230 to automatically receive the SS card :)

Oh, grats! That was fast! Most people I see actually have to go to their local SSN office and apply, whether checking the box off or not on the DS-230. Hope I get it just as fast! If not, thankfully, there's a local office in my husband's itty bitty town.

yeah, we went to the local SS office but they told her to not fill out the application for a social security card if that box was checked because then she could be issued two different SS numbers and that could cause quite a problem...made sense to me so we held off on it and waited a lil longer

Yeah, if you don't get it by 3 weeks after POE, then that's when you're supposed to go to the SSN office. I'll wait till the first week of June until I go to the SSN office, if I don't get it by mail before then.

Hello all,

Sorry, been a bit busy lately. Wanted to drop in and say congrats to EVERYONE that has gotten approved, or has there loved ones with them right now. We're being a little slower then most of you, but then the baby is due August 8. And just to let ya all know, on the first Ultra-Sound to check to see if it's a boy or a girl, we've been told it's a Girl. So we're just moving along slowly, but surely. Just wanted everyone to know, we're still here, and checking in. We're right there with everyone of course.

Talk to you all very soon!
