My fiance'and I are extremely happy to announce that our I129F has been approved !!! We are concerned now though because of the conditions in manila now. The weather has not been kind. It seems that there is terrible flooding due to 2 typhoons to hit there back to back,and the US embassy is flooded as well. Does anyone have a clue as to when they will be able to open again? Or; is there any alternate plan in place so the US Dept. of State can resume business there in Phils??

No, I did not request any expidite, just waited. They do seem to be moving along rather quickly now. As a matter of fact, both me and a friend of mine and his fiance' were also approved same day LOL. He sent his in a week later than I did. I've also discovered now that the embassy is open.

thanks penguin

Why does Igor's stats show that CSC is processing July 1st cases, when their last approval was one person on the 28th the approvals before that were all the 22nd.

Where as VSC is pumping them out daily and is at June 8th according to Igor's stats? While they have almost 50% of June cases (of VJ members) processed!!
