My stress, worry, and general freaking out can now finally cease. Everything is cool.

My Fiancee had her interview yesterday in Belgrade. But it took an extra day for her fingerprints to clear with the Embassy. And now I can finally say that it is done. She picked up, and was granted, her visa today.

The interview was much shorter than I expected, and lasted approximately 15-20 minutes. They looked at our documentation, and didn't have any questions about the evidence that we submitted. The interview was smooth.

And so, even though our journey is not yet complete, I would like to thank everyone here at VisaJourney. It is through the collective contributions of everyone on this site that my approval was possible. And I am glad that I never touched a lawyer.

So thank you all, and I wish everyone a speedy approval.

WOOT!!!!!
