Let's hope your assumption is accurate!

Keep us posted.

My assumption seems to be right. The Visa was issues today. Allow me to elaborate for those that are curious about AP status and what it means in Moscow.

Contrary to popular belief EVERYONE in Moscow goes into AP, though it's usually only for a few minutes. This means 99.9% of people never see or realize they are in this status. However I write software for a living, so I wrote a script (which wasn't easy because of the captcha code) to check the status and create a log with time stamps so I see all changes, even when sleeping.

So I saw AP --> READY --> AP --> READY --> AP --> ISSUED

The first AP status (before interview) was for a day. The last AP status was just for a few minutes. Also, I called the embassy again today and they told me AP means something is about to change, passport moves from here to there, or something quick. Point is, most people don't ever see the AP status. Also I called the visa printing office in Moscow, they also told me this.

I realize all this doesn't really matter, but I am the type of person that is always curious, so I over researched it. Anyways, it looks like I was safe to buy that flight after all.
