At 0830am I checked with USCIS, no touches and no changes. at 9:45 in use my early lunch break to skype with my Maganda (Beautiful) Fiancee. At 9:59 I receive a text from 35842 and I can read the first line "Your case EAC ####." mY hEART STOPS and I stare at it again..and say to myself "OMG could this be the text I've been waiting for" My next thought is "please please please say that it's approved." The text says to check my case for its been updated. As soon as I read the text the email comes into my BB. I read it ..blah blah bllah ...APPROVED! Yes! YES ! I say to my Honey who is resting her head on the bed. "we are approved Baby ...and I can see her body come alive with excitement. Yes after 6 months 1 week and a few days we are approved. I'm guessing that request I submitted on Monday Helped ....Thank You
