w00t! Just got the call from my fiance that all went well and his visa was approved!! Many thanks to those of you who have chipped in when I was a newbie and helped lead us towards today.

Advice to those of you just starting the process now...positive, positive, positive! Don't bring each other down. Research as much as you can, learn learn learn and ask questions even if they're stupid. Don't stay at home. Get a hobby! Something new and exciting.

Good things come to those who wait, however impatiently ;)

woohoo! See you all in AOS! :)

Congratulations!!! Matt's is tomorrow morning. And I agree with you.... To the newbies, stay as positive as possible. The interview date in inevitable... My favorite quote to myself has been "this too shall pass" Goof luck with your future ventures together.
