:blush: We did it! My wife passed her interview in Tokyo today!

I know that that will make some of you jealous. I have explained before that we got really lucky to be expedited due to the tsunami in Japan though my wife was never in danger.

Nevertheless, we deserve this for all our hard work like all of you will deserve it when you get yours.

I am rooting for all of you! Please let me know if I can assist in any way. I feel like an old pro at everything and surely can answer pretty much all your questions!

Cheers! :dance:

That's fantastic! Congratulations!

Hey VJ'ers, I just want to keep this thread going by sharing that my wife will have her IV interview in Guangzhou on February 9th. Our I-130 was received by the CSC on March 29, 2011. I think we're on the far-end of the bell curve of timelines for March filers, but we're very happy (and nervous) that the interview is finally just around the corner.
