I really am so glad to see one of the transfer cases go through. Honestly I thought they'd have gotten some of these done earlier this week, but it's good to see that you made it through. Hopefully the damn will now break and the rest of the people transferred will get their approvals soon as well, and hopefully VSC will then get moving on the remaining case load they have.

Best of luck the rest of the way

Congrats Rod and Rish!

Just curious, did you reach out to your congressman/senator? Im curious to see if anyone who did not reach out to their congressman/senator has gotten approved at TSC.

No we did not reach out to any Congressman/ senators.We just waited and waited and read all your posts here for updates. And ofcourse we prayed a whole lot too. My USC fiancee unfortunately didnt know any of his representatives:) hehehe

So it looks like calling and not calling both received approvals.. so relieved to hear that because I haven't called either.. lol Congratulations to BOTH Approvals Dustin and Janen and Rod and Rish!!!

Ours are on the way!!!! Weeeeepppaahhhh!!

~ Jan ??,2013 ~ Service Center ~ Vermont I-129F Packet sent

NOTE: Actual sent date unknown due to lawyer negligence - I delivered ALLForms and PAID Lawyer on Nov 7, 2012 - Lawyer kept saying he sent the packet and USCIS must have lost it. When in reality he failed to send the package and only a new copy to USCIS after I made a legal written demand giving him 10 days to perform or return ALL monies paid to him, due to "non-performance".

(IMO it's better to save your money for visits to or from your Fiancé and just fill it out yourself using the K-1 Guide on VJ and Senior Members... They Rock!!!)
