Hi everyone!

I woke up this mourning just to casually check my e-mail, not expecting anything from the USCIS. So I checked my e-mail and found, in the middle of alot of junk mail, two e-mails from CSC saying that my I-129F and I-130 have been APPROVED!

What happened last week was I called Senator John McCain's office in Tuscon, AZ, since I live in Arizona. I talked to his secretary, and gave her all the information about my case, and how I filed in September and was delayed. The secretary told me that they will do everything they can to help me. They contacted CSC last week, CSC replied them the next day and told the secretary to give them 30 to 45 days to make a disicion on my applications. So McCain's office called me and told me this and the next day I recieved a letter from them jsut stating in writing what they told me over the phone. I have to call them to update and thank them for their help. Now only after a fews days of them calling the CSC, I am approved. I should have called them earlier for help. Anyway now on to the NVC, God Willing!

:( There was a problem with her finger scanning and the embassy didn't even call us. I had to call to see what was taking so long for the visa to be delivered. They knew 5 days before I even called. Now she has to wait until tomorrow to rescan her finger...If we can't pick up the visa on wednesday we won't be flying home together on Thursday. :( I don't get why the embassy doesn't call when they know there is a problem...

Sorry to hear this! I hope everything will be smoother, and you can fly to the USA together! These things happen in China here as well... Nowadays, we have to wait for several days till having the visa in hand. Anyway, you are still luckier than us, as we are still waiting for our P3! For this, you can cheer up soon again! HAHA.

Good luck for this and have a nice trip home!

Well she didn't get the visa in time so I am here in Taipei airport alone waiting for my connecting flight to LA. Worst part is seeing the empty seat next to me and knowing my Fiancée was supposed to be there. :(
