Ooops! looks like "done" forgot to update their timeline (Inna & Timothy), # 3 on the waiting to be approved list. [...] I sent a PM, but he's probably still celebrating. [...] Oh yes, they were approved in December :lol:

Good God, man -- where are people's priorities? Timelines come FIRST, si man. :) Congrats to the approvees, and thanks to Blake for the news, si man.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

When you're as low on the food chain as I am..... ;) timelines are all I have. Actually I received a nice message from the member who didn't know how to update the timeline (thought it was through the signature). I gave him step by step instructions, so hopefully this will be corrected soon.

And So It Begins......

Congratulations to Svetlana & Aaron who posted their approval from last week! and also

Congratulations to ni & nj who posted their approval from yesterday!

:dance::dance::dance:

thanks Igor, i had been calling the CSC for a while about my case.

3 weeks ago, they told me it was on an officer's desk.

2 weeks ago, they told me it was on an officer's desk.

2 days ago i called and they said an officer hadn't been assigned and that it was at the supervisor's desk.

so they lied, or fired the original officer (which i doubt)

what scumsuckers!

my only advice to people is to call when you see other people getting approved "ahead" of you
