Wish you would return regularly! You're missed.

Great news! Let us know.

The OP may have hit the limit of posts for a brand-new member.

All else equal, a good travel history can be a plus. Have her visit another country (or two) and return home. Wait appropriately, then try again for a B-2.

Wonderful! Congratulations, and thanks for your positive update.

The OP hasn't logged on to VJ since June but is following the thread; let's hope that a response comes. Perhaps someone else can offer input.

Make lemonade from lemons.

Keep a positive upper lip and a stiff attitude! Uh, hang on a minute here...

That's great -- congratulations on the progress. This doesn't need to be super-scientific; put in what your instincts tell you to enter there.

How do we (not including NB) spell "utter insanity"?

Every step is a gain.

RFEs are actually a blessing in disguise. Respond precisely with what they want, ordering your papers as they request. Then, write in big letters "FOR THE CONSULATE AFTER PETITION APPROVAL" on a new sheet of paper, put it under the RFE papers, and, behind it, add further "evidence of bona fide relationship" that you've accrued while waiting all these months. In this way, you not only satisfy the RFE; you also strengthen your case for the eventual visa interview.
