Thanks everyone!  I'll have to admit.  After a month went by I started to really get concerned about what terrible things they might have uncovered in a background check that I didn't know about... or worse, they thought I was someone else with a much more colorful past.  My anxiety was really getting to me about it.  I'm quite happy to sit in line now though for a while and obey the process.

Completely natural to start getting worried. You held it together way better than I would have!

If anyone is curious or reading from newer monthly threads, it took me 49 days to go "inline" from my bio appt.

You know, you really are one of the most responsive and helpful person I have interacted with on ANY forum. I really hope you get your interview soon and are done with this ASAP.

I guess they are not VJ member right? The process for VJ members usually take longer than non VJ members. The more you care about the process, the slower it is :)
