Just got the text message to say we have been approved!!! We filed July 9th. So incredibly happy! Husband and I reached such a low point last night that we both just cried on the phone. So this has come at our weakest moment and given us hope that we may actually be together in time for our baby's arrival.

Keep the faith guys!! I'm not sure if it made any difference at all but husband spoke to Tier 2 rep at Vermont last Wed and explained our situation (me being high risk pregnancy etc) and he said to send copy of our expedition request and cover letter to Vermont by mail. We overnighted it and it got there Friday at 3pm. No idea if it made any difference, but for those waiting it could be worth a shot.

On to the next stage of waiting.......
