I'm very happy for you also, it's a good feeling that the longest wait is finally over. Eventhough theres still a lot ahead of us, everything should start moving a little faster now.. Good luck man...

Yes the random long wait is over, only lots of work.left mainly for our fiances. But its down hill from here.

I just noticed (yes I still look at stats I'm addicted lol) that so far compared to April filers, we may filers had more 3 month approvals. So lets go MAY!!!!!!!!!!!! Many more to come before September is over!

OMG It's like May is being bombarded with approvals!! Now.....

@Ran4Jenny: I squeezed out info that they are working on our case right now. I know it's not really fair, but I tried to expedite our case because of Ice's situation at home. I got this email:

"The status of this service request is:

To me, that means we're almost there... I want Sabrina and I to get approved this week.

congrats..... )

I'll take an approval! Gosh it's making me so NUTS this week. AHHHHH!!!!

I keep constantly checking my email. And I jump everytime I get a text. This is not healthy behavior.

But seriously....if they said they're working on it...should be a couple of days, right?!?

[stronger 43]

I'm so jumpy and can't concentrate seeing all these approvals around and after my date. I've been a good girl, I promise!! PLEASEEEEE....lol

Ok guys.so my lawyer finally received the hard copy of my RFE. Just as I knew they request evidence of us meeting in the last 2 years. So now the question is I got copies of my passport with visa stamp and also entry and exit stamp.also got copied of my boarding passes and also pics of our engagement party. Any other suggestions or anything else u guys think I can include. Thank u guys in advance for the help. I sure wasted money hiring a lawyer. It only delaying my paperwork. Wish I had found this site before I wasted money on the lawyer.

Did you give them boarding passes and itinerary copies? Those are good.

IDK if you need all of this, but this is the evidence that is in our petition:

-passports

-itineraries

-boarding passes

-his F-1 visa petition

-proof that I went to the same school as him

-skype records

-cellphone records

-proof that we rented an apartment together (contract and utility/rent bills)

-receipts from when I visited him

-mail receipts from stuff he sent me

-letters from the International student advisor saying that she witnessed our relationship

-letter from my mom

-pictures with dates, names and places on them

-facebook records

That^ might be overkill, but I sectioned it off and made it very easy to follow, so hopefully it doesn't take them too long...

Any pictures you have with both of you together (at least 5) is hard evidence that the two of you have met in the last two years. Like Nikki said, make sure you write the date and place they were taken on the back. I made sure I did this for our application and we were approved with no problem.

[me&him 2]

Thank u everyone for ur advise. I got about 10 pics together and with family members. Also will resend my boarding passes and copy of passport with stamps.
