Anyone applied for their I-130 on or around Sept 18th through the London Embassy had approval yet?

The Embassy website has been updated to say they're now processing applications dated Sept 17th, so I'm really thinking mine must be just about approved and on it's way in the post to me now, right??!!

This waiting is terrible. I'm practically attacking the postman in the street to search through his postbag in case he's missed it. (I get a lot of wrong deliveries at my house, believe me!)

Any other 'Sept 18th's out there?!

I had a filing date of september 13th and got my approval notice yesterday. We spent yesterday frantically trying to contact the Embassy to see what had gone wrong and why we hadn't heard when the letter landed on the mat!

That's great you got it! You must be feeling so happy! At least that's the first part out of the way.

I guess mine should be here any day...although I just realised the Embassy will be closed for Thanksgiving tomorrow and maybe Friday which may push it into next week.

When you say your filing date was Sept 13th, I'm assuming that was the date the Embassy filed it, not the date you posted it to them?
I posted on the 15th Sept but being a Saturday they didn't get it/ file it until the 18th.

Gwen - did you get an email approval or just the paper one?

bunsk2007 - Did you put an email address on your I-130 form??

I'm still a long way off, but very excited to hear of any approval news

Congrats, Gwen and bunsk!!!

Hi Poiteen

Yes, my dh put his e-mail address on the form and that was what they used to notify us that it had been filed. Have just checked our emails in case...but nothing yet

It is exciting to hear when other people get good news, yes! It makes it seems all the more encouraging for us folks still waiting!

Poiteen, they just sent the paper approval, nothing by e-mail at all.

We sent the application on September 10th, the filing date was the 13th.
