My wife passed her interview in the afternoon. She had to wait all day from about 7AM thru the lunch break before they finally called her number etc.

The only catch is that since it's so close to Tet, her visa won't be ready to pick-up until the 28th. (consulate will be closed on the 16th thru at least the 21st)

But I'm not complaining at all! Pink slip is pink slip. ;)

I can say we are both very relieved and that this is going to be one of the most enjoyable Tet ever.

I'll try to give more details later, as I have to take off for work shortly.

Finally, a quick thanks to everyone here for their support and another thank you to the entire forum/website for the help and advice I was able to find. :thumbs:
