I know the feeling. I hate being an impatient person!!! :wacko:

We were married in Washington in August, we submitted our I-485, I130, I765, and I131 in Sept of 06 to the Chicago Lock Box, and got our Green card in January 07!!! Found this was much faster and easier than going through the K1 process.

The amount of times I check is steadily increasing. I'm really starting to lose it over here.

Hey it's Okay, we all know just how you feel and it is really going to be Okay. I am not too much farther along than you but sometimes the wait for Melinda is overwhelming. Remember that this little journey that we are on has an end to it, this will not last forever, then you will finally be together.

All of us check the status of our case many times a day, that doesn't mean you are losing it!

This web site is a really good place to hang out and get encouraged. We are all struggling like you right now, hey look at me it's 3:30 in the morning and here I am...Go figure.

Hang in ther man, it wont be too much longer

Hey....I'm right there with you. I was just thinking the same thing about myself yesterday. On about my 7th or 8th check yesterday I saw that my file was touched...so, that just goes to show that sometimes those extra glances don't hurt. But, that touch just made me hope all the more that my approval comes through soon; I've been waiting since April and it is driving me crazy. Best of luck, I hope something comes through for you soon.

Oh boy do I know what you are talking about! I started crying to my fiance just last night that it literally is consuming me - and if it doesn't change I cry. And then when it did change today I balled as it still said the same date of March 6 - something just doesn't make sense. I even check while I am at work! It's so sad but we want to be with our loved ones so badly the waiting game drives a person insane!!!!
