I think your consulate is easier than that in my country, I heard horrible stories of how mean the CO are to the applicants here in my country LOL...my husband filed the petition on Dec 22, 2010 and I get my interview scheduled on Nov 22, 2011. I will have missed my 1st wedding anniversary and thanksgiving dinner to meet my husband's family. It's really frustrating as we were one month left behind due to error made by NVC. But, good things come to those who wait...Im happy that most of people here in VJ finally made it through. Once again, congrats!!!

Congrats! Perfect anniversary present for you both and what a wonderful birthday gift for your wife too!
