I've got some bad (well not really) news for you. :devil:

We found the NVC step to be much more difficult than the USCIS step. They want lots of documentation, the NVC processes were infuriating and then you have the consulate to deal with. Don't be disheartened you're getting really close now. :thumbs:

There will now be a delay as your petition is sent from USCIS to NVC. Don't waste this time. Start getting your police certificates, birth certificates (long form showing both parents' names) and your documentation for the affidavit of support (I-864). The better job you do now of gathering this documentation the quicker you'll be able to progress once the case is at NVC.

Start by reading the NVC guide. Ask any questions you need.

congrats and does it mean CSC is moving now and that thier next move is to look at Aug. filers? lol i hope we get ours too we're on our 5th month on the 26th. :)

All I know, is that I need you... I need you in my life as much as I need food or water or air to breathe - for the longest time, I've had this thirst deep inside... only to be known and understood and be loved for who I am. I have longed for someone, someone like you - to share my life with... all the ups and downs and everything in between. then out of no where - you walked into my life, quenching my thirst, satisfying my longing. and I know from every thing with in - that you are the one... you're the one I've been waiting for all this time. I want and I need you - more than I can usually find words to say... But today and always - please believe and know that you're the one for me and I'll hold you close and I'll never want to let you go...
