Congratulations! That's fantastic news! Out of curiosity, had/have you been checking your case online or did you just save yourself the stress and wait for the physical letter to come in?

 

Texas filer here, still waiting. ;)

That's awesome. I applied for my step children in March and was sent to Potomac but haven't heard anything yet. Maybe its coming soon.

This time I saved myself the stress and waited for the physical letter, but with my husband's petition I checked every two minutes like a crazy person :)

Hey guys...

 

I think i just just got approved! 

 

I was was checking literally everyday and was getting the same message “ your petition number is invalid etc” and I was getting super sad thinking it’s gonna take until at least October to get approved.

 

Im at Texas service centre and did not get an expedited case.

 

I left it for like a week and checked today and approved!!??

Wow that’s amazing! Congratulations 🎉 

I’m  at Texas as well and would probably have to wait until October God’s willing but how lucky are you! 

Could it be so because your case number begins with IOE?

If you check their post history, this appears to be the case. As a fellow Texas service center person who did NOT receive the IOE number, I'm so jealous!

 

@Mr&Mrs Marshie Congratulations! ♥
