i all, after 7 months of immigration procedure, i can finally say that we were approved this afternoon. :dance::dance::thumbs::thumbs:

My husband is still crying tear of joys and screaming his lungs out. I will post all the questions he was asked by tomorrow.

His interview which was scheduled for 8AM was delayed and pushed to 2 PM but overall he is pleased with how everything turns out. He said the CO was really nice and professional, asked lots of questions and was more interested in seeing pictures (specially traditional wedding ones). His interview lasted about 45mns he said because they were having such a great time and the CO told him that he is one in a few that he ever interviewed who had all their files together..

Thanks to each and everyone of you for the prayers, the thoughts or even just a word of encouragement or comfort. Special thanks to Omo for the phone calls and sms and being by my side every second throughout the night. It helps so much to know that someone was there for me to lean my head on

Good luck to everyone and may God abundantly pours down his blessings on you. :)
