I've seen this to a lot on VJ and I'm so bewildered as to what USCIS would need to write in the letter to let people know that they have been approved, Hahahaha. I suppose emoticons and the word "appr

I don't think anyone was being mean; it is just surprising to the old hands that people often post their emails, especially the bit that says "we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)", but they still question the message when they should be jumping for joy. Your doubt came across in your title: 'I assume'. People are happy for you and want you to enjoy this moment not worry!

Congratulations! kicking.gifkicking.gif

Exactly.
