Thanks...Guys....yeah i hope for an earlier approval. On checking the processing times for Vermont the current date is March 2013, so it seems 8 months away....But the approval is random for F2A filers for their spouses....some get approval within a month ...some within 2-3 months and for some it takes a year.....so now lets see what happens......dancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gifdancin5hr.gif
