Anyone got any suggestions? Even common sense things would be appreciated right now - I have lost all power to have any!

And thank you in advance for all your help, answers, reassurance and going through the same thing - friends and family can offer so much but it's nice to have people who know just what it's like to go through it. :luv:

Ready for my grand ol' timeline? Alrighty then!

10/22/2014 Early Biometrics Walk-in - Cleveland, OH - weird experience with the clerk there - told me I can go ahead and get my biometrics taken early, but it might be too early and it might not go through??? If it might be a problem, then why let me do it at all?

02/10/2015 New Biometrics letter received, Biometrics scheduled for 03/09/15- I guess that clerk was right??

Good luck, try to get plenty of rest, relax and remember to breathe :P I'm sure everything will be fine. Jess and I got an RFE so ours has been held up a wee bit **grumble**

What did you get the RFE for? All the cool kids get RFEs - a bit like those who passed their driving tests on the second attempt B-)
