Thank you guys!!! Approved!!!! Will write a proper review later but had a really good experience, no problems, very nice interviewer who asked the usual things (how we met, whether i wanted to work in US, if we'd spent much time with each others families, when our wedding was planned for). I was wiping away tears when she said i was approved and she said "stop it, or i'll start too!".

Called Andrew to tell him and I'm pretty sure he will need to be told all over again when he actually wakes up, i think he was sleep-skyping!

Thank you for all your support, jan filers, you all rock :star: I don't think it's sunk in yet but right now i'm gonna have a big glass of irish champagne (TEA!) xxxx

Hope they can get some adjudications in today...Can't believe they've been working at this rate and still have the audacity to keep a 5 months processing time on the website. I really hope this is over soon. This has to be a good week for all of us here. I thought we could only go up in progress from the horrible week we had before..Let's hope they can deliver some mercy at this point and stop torturing us all like this...It was Vermont Disservice Center. Hopefully, it doesn't have to become Vermont Sadistic Center...It's moving toward that at this point with these processing times. It's deplorable.

Paul there are still like 12 petitions from January 5 and a few from each day at the beginning of the month that haven't been touched!!! It is really crazy at this point, they are going towards 7 months this week! I just have no words for all this... Looks like RFE would be good enough as long as I know we have some chances to be approved at all!

Being together this year became a huge question mark!

Yes. that's what really scares me..I just don't like the movement (or lack thereof) that I've seen in my batch..Last petition approved around me was July 11. and other major approvals happened June 29th..a month ago now...I'm preparing to get my Senator involved soon if I can't receive a satisfactory update from my Congressman...I'm wondering if the Congressman's lack of experience dealing with USCIS is going to render them pretty useless in this endeavor. It's all just very bizarre. And 200 is looking good to me now. And that is a scary thing to imagine...I just still can't believe this all happening..I really hope I can have some good news this week..Don't know what the issue is with adjudicating petitions from 1/18...but it's definitely scaring me. And everyone else who filed here has also been done a disservice. It's honestly embarrassing and really should not be happening. It's not like this service was free either...
