Our approval was really the 30th also but wifey was too anxious to wait for me to get home and look at the letter so she thought we were approved on the 5th when we got the letter :bonk: She was too excited to realize the snail mail system takes a few days :rofl: but I love her dearly anyhow and wouldn't trade her for anything.

I'm sending it to my husband; then he's going to send it to NVC.

Sure, just let me know if he's having problem.. I might be able to help.

I'm getting all my documents from National Statistics OFfice on the 18th too, then i'll mail it to hubby.

Still debating on using Express Mail by the Post Office or use FEDEX... the latter is way too pricey.
