Yep, case is finally complete. From May 25, 2006 (date of marriage) until Mar 15, 2007 (Final notice of completion). Not too bad for SE Asia timelines. I was affraid it would take much longer. Now, to wait on the interview package and hopefully it won't take the 8 weeks the NVC states over the telephone.

Oh well, all the hard work is over, now the ball is in my wife's hand. She tells me she is encouraged to attend the interview. She feels very good about the meeting with the interviewer. I hope so too.

Enjoy

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Looks like you're married to a Cambodian women. I would love to hear your journey, if I may. I have questions such as how was the interview, etc..? If you have any advice that you may pass on to the generation behind you, I would be very much appreciated for the gratitude.

And now I just received the Appointment letter for April 19th, 2007. So this case is now in the hands of my wife and how well she does at the interview. Fingers, eyes, and toes are crossed.
