It is wonderful! We do feel bad for those who filed in California, though - but still have to be happy for this blessing!

Thanks Tony + Danielle, safitu, jlvr, and Sue for your congrats!!! Wishing good news for you all soon!

To answer Tony's Q, Adrian had his medical in London on Mar. 26. Went fine - other than being really expensive (about 500 USD) - he just had to have a tetnus shot and a rubella shot. He called to schedule the medical as soon as he got packet 3.

Now we are just worrying about how long it will take London to get him the passport with the Visa in it.... some say days, some say weeks. We're debating on when to get plane tickets but it's a nice problem to have since the end of the tunnel is finally in sight!

WOW: I just finished speaking with my congress man's assist who handles the visa service request.

She was actually trying to tell me that Vermont never got K-1s done faster than 6 months in the 4 years she has been working at her job.

She would not even look up Receipt numbers on the USCIS web sight, where I could show her they were done more quickly.

Then when I was speaking to her that USCIS had lost my original file she actually said, what is the big deal it is only an extra month.

My original request was simply that USCIS answer the question if they are going of my first or 2nd receipt date. She said, well I helped you because I sent in a request, even though the request had been in the 2nd filing, and she gave me no new information.

Have a request in for speaking to her boss, will see how that works.
