Thanks all for the replys..........yes indeed, that was my biggest fear......the file was lost!!!!!! There has got to be in the neighborhood of 25,000 to 50,000 visa applications at the CSC......not just fiancee either.....ie work related etc.........what worker would want to look under that pile of papers for just another application!!!!!!

I just received a pm from E&K.......they are now waiting for their RFE in Mexico Together!!!!!! I told her to stay on top of her Congressional aid. I am now totally convinced that this was the key in my case.

I just checked my status today and I was touched today again!!!!! So now, I have been touched before the sending out of the RFE, during the Sending out of the RFE and now after the sending out of the RFE.

I haven't received the hard copy RFE yet but I will keep everyone posted on developments.

I haven't seen myself run to the mailbox every day like this since I was a kid waiting for that birthday card with money from Aunt Mary in it!!!!!!!! :blush:

I received a reply from my gal in Russia......needless to say, she was equally ecstatic of this news!!!! It has been 7 months since we have seen any ray of hope during this process. We thank God for helping us.

I hope my info helps others still waiting for their RFE or approval.

Mike :D
