My DH had his interview today and was approved!

July 4th- Mailed I-130>>>>>October 23rd - Interview and approval

Less than 4 months!

Just a note that I was only a resident for 11 months when I filed the I-130...so the "2-year-rule" is definitely not hard and fast.

Good luck to everyone else who is still in the visa process!!!!

Excellent. That's a wonderful encouraging fast timeline to see. I'm DCF in London (from Scotland) too. My I-130 was received August 6th and I need the visas before Feb 20th. So I'm encouraged by your timeline.

Congratulations and I hope you all enjoy your new life in the states!
