not much of activity for us May filers this week...i hope next week, we get updates about our application...

Anyone that filed the first week of May has any news after Biometrics?

Seems that the process has slowed down these past few months! I talked to a friend of mine that filed last year and her whole process, from filing to interview took one month and a half, and my other friend that filed in February of this year, 2 months.

Well, we got notice of confirmation about our move to a different state last week, though I'm scared it will show down the process:(

Don't stress over that. I have read on this website of couples of have moved to another state and it does not slow down the process for them. Stay positive and good luck.
