Now I know I have been complaining a lot about how slow the CSC is, and really this is a shock. I am so shocked because I expected it in June. Maybe they are starting to pick up the pace. Keep your heads up CSC filers!!

I'll never forget when I first stepped off a train in Buda Pest in the early 80's - I went from a confident world traveler to an ignorant child in about 1 sec. :blink:

On the Budapest side, things move pretty quickly. Once our case was there, it was over and done w/ in one month....and that was w/ the issuance of a 221g and the necessity of a second interview! So you're very close....the light is definitely there at the end of the tunnel! :)
