I always imagined the day that I would be able to write this...WE ARE APPROVED!! Well, NOA2 that is...after only a little over 3 months. It's incredible. (We've already been apart 11 months). Thanks to Congressman Peter Roskam of Illinois, who petitioned on our behalf to "cut through the red tape." It worked!!

So here we are...our application spent less than 24 hours at the NVC and is, as of yesterday, on its way to the embassy in Naples, Italy. My mind is in a whirlwind...we were so used to waiting in agony, thinking the day would never come! Now the pace has quickened, and we are finding ourselves scrambling to get everything together in time. We have everything we need, thanks to my uber-type-A personality and extremely obsessive organizational skills....:)

Hopefully in another 1-2 months...he'll finally be here next to me.......living a normal life!....

congrats and all. I know it's exciting but I've just got to say I'm getting annoyed with people using this forum to inform the web site of their approval. It's not exactly a discussion is it and most 'announcements' are of no use to anyone to read. sorry
