Today I received in my e-mail notice that my petition for fiance had been approved. I sent my 129-F in on the 13th of November with overnight shipping and today I got this message 8 times in my e-mail (why they sent it so many times I do not know):

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On November 21, 2006, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

I have no idea why it would be this fast. I did think that our case was pretty straightforward though. I alone have over 12 stamps in my passport book with a Heathrow or Edinburgh stamp. I also thought that perhaps since I am a female applying for a male it would be easier as well (don't know why I thought this...just did). Thank you so much for everyone's help here. The online guides were a wonderful resource. I was nervous because on the how we met question I took the liberty to be a little fun and joked around a bit. I thought it may not have been official enough. Apparently they didn't mind. I hope this is not a mistaken e-mail they sent out. Thanks so much again...I know I will have many more questions for the next hurdles.

July 2002 -- Met Keith on a train traveling (I chatted him up) from London up to Scotland while my friend and I were touring after graduation. He said when we made it up to Scotland to give him a call and he would be our guide in Edinburgh.

Couple days later in early August -- Met up with Keith in Edinburgh. He was the worst tour guide ever!!! He did know where the good pubs were, though. He showed us around for 3 days.

July 2002 - December 2002 -- Keith and I keep in touch e-mailing and talking on the phone

December 2002 -- Keith comes to visit for New Year's in NYC. We decide then to become "official" (or however you say it)

2003-2006 -- Dating and lots of travel (over 200,000 air miles between us)

November 2006 -- Proposal!

11/13/06 -- Mailed 129-f

11/15/06 -- NOA1

11/21/06 -- NOA2
