What does it mean? So excited

[Ratty and C 13]

Hi folks, maybe some of you have been following another thread i started about our embassy denial due to an expired 8 year old previous petition......well, tonight while we are skyping my fiancee got a phone call and when she returned she is so happy....it was the embassy, please send them the passport! I'm not sure of the exact wording....they reviewed or are reviewing our case again.

Maybe something i did paid off, but we're so happy..maybe we bypass a year in USCIS purgatory? You think we'll be approved? I know no-one knows for sure but i just had to post the update to let people know. I think maybe 2 things paid off, the congressman's people working behind the scenes to try and figure out the deal with the old petition and my phone calls to the embassy.

Sanity prevails maybe? :)

Sounds promising indeed. Best of luck.

When they ask for the passport, its usually a good thing.

[Ratty and C 13]

I can't believe it... i did everything i could to fix the situation but still in my mind we were in for a tough year plus of waiting. I hope it's good news - omg it would be so heartbreaking now if it goes wrong again.

Well, i think the lesson is that maybe they aren't immovable, there is some chance to get approved still if you can get on top of things quick enough and the circumstances just seem so strange. Thanks to Congressman Duncan Hunter and his aides for their help, and to the embassy staff for reconsidering.

And also, a sincere thanks to all the VJ members for your support and ideas, maybe one of those ideas is what made the difference.

Sounds like you are a winner.

if they kept your passport, I think your approved congratulations,

[Ratty and C 13]

Thanks folks for all the kind wishes, i can't believe our dream may come true after the last 2 weeks of torment - i've been crossing my fingers all day. I just phoned the embassy but there was no-one available to tell me if we're approved, so i'll phone back later and post an update if there is news..

I think it's a good thing! Congrats in advance! I'm so happy for you both....

Just noticed that you contacted Duncan Hunter. I have to put in a second GOOD WORD on his office -- I was one of the "skipped" November filers at CSC, waiting for approval when all the cases around me were already done. I contacted Hunter, Feinstein and Boxer, and Hunter's response was IMMEDIATE and extremely helpful. (Feinstein responded 3 weeks later, and Boxer has still never answered.) I can't say it's 100% due to Holly's (Rep Hunter's caseworker's) inquiry, but I got my approval only 48 hours after she filed the inquiry at CSC. So yes if you're in the San Diego area and need help, contact Duncan Hunter!!!
