Hi everyone, I usually post on K-3 forum but since it was our I-130 that was approved I assumed this would be the appropriate forum. I am so happy at the moment I am in tears. I have rang my husband and mum in law to let them know the good news. They sent the email today but it was approved yesterday, I thought to have done pretty well up until now, but I have to admit I have had a ton of help from everyone here on VJ, I want to thank you all sooooo much for the help! Oh and dont worry , I will have tons of questions to come, such as how much longer till the interview, what other forms will we be needing any other steps I should be taking, etc. I am sooo on cloud nine right now, but my fingers wont come un-crossed as I am still hoping and praying for all my fellow VJ's. Thanks again everyone. HUGS

Thank you Simple, I have been trying to be as patient as I can, and hopefully I have done well enough at it.LOL Is the NVC process very long? Will the keep our file for a long time before they send it to the Dublin embassy? I have been trying to search timelines to find out, but no luck. Thank you again!

Thanks Becca, I took a look at the flow charts last night and it looks sooooo long and drawn out. But I am not gonna let it dampen my spirits, we will get thru this. Good luck to you as well. Maybe we will get done with the NVC at about the same time!!!

Based on my 1st time thru the NVC (Our application was sent back to square 1), and assuming there will be no additional security checks (no new information to check), it took about 8 days to leave the VSC, process thru the NVC, and arrive in Kiev.

Good luck waiting. I hope you are plesantly surprised...soon.
