Where have you seen approvals in 2 weeks? Even DCF normally takes a month. Not saying it can't or hasn't happened, just that it sounds like ifit did happen there was more to it.

There would have to be severe reasons to get an expedite approved. Either military, something going on in the originating country or something similar. Without more information on who they saw approved, I would take it with a grain of salt.

01/15/12 - Sent Aya a message on a dating site
03/10/12 - We became "exclusive"
03/15/12 - We told each other "I love you"
08/17/12 - 2 week trip to the Philippines to be with her
08/27/12 - I asked her to marry me (in Cebuano), she cried and said yes
09/02/12 - I came back to the USA

Started on the paperwork

09/22/12 - Mailed I-129F
09/25/12 - Saw on USPS that the package was delivered in Texas
09/28/12 - NOA1
10/08/12 - Received hard copy NOA1
12/19/12 - CFO Counseling Session (to get it out of the way)
04/27/13 - NOA2
05/06/13 - NVC Received and MNL # assigned

I actually spoke to another member on VJ whose process was over in the blink of an eye. I asked her a few questions and according to her she did not file expedited or anything. Her case was filed at the same service center as me and her fiance was in the same country as mine. (my fiance asked the question but now I decided to access this forum lol). Honestly it gave me a little of false hope crying.gif but I'll stay optimistic that this will all end soon. 2 months and counting...
