UGH! Stop. At the risk of being flamed by everyone, and being a visajourney member myself, I still have to ask if you guys could keep this stuff offline and off the forum? This can't be the only way y

I can only imagine the dread that April and May filers must be thinking. The same things we did when we saw February people waiting 200 days. The denial... "Oh, surely they will catch up by us?" or th

In honor of the amazing super fast VSC rep holding our case hostage, I've written a poem. It is to the tune of "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch". I call it, "Ode to Mister Sloth". You're a slow one,

WE ARE APPROVED!!! No RFE!!! Haven't checked in a week and sure enough we were approved yesterday. Maybe that is the trick...don't look every 2 hours like I was doing. :) Still keeping all the Marchies in my prayers though.

By the way, we did not get an email notice either. I checked the site directly

Ok, so now....how long can we estimate a VISA in hand? 4-6 weeks? Is that too long or not long enough?
