Julezabelle, you must realize that at Vermont's current rate of .000362 approvals per day, you will see yours anywhere from 769 - 32,582 days from today. So while there *might* be cause for *some* people to celebrate, it might be wise for you to look at the facts instead and break up with your honey.

*only playing Bill, we all love yours stats, and I for one have appreciated your sense of reality and your sense of humor.*

We are stay in Cape Town, at the beach house and also in Pinelands....it is beautiful here...temp around the 60's and a little windy...how is it back in New York? Thanksgiving here was just another Thursday!

My second reply-

I received the first receipt on 10/2/07. We should keep in contact to see or know how long this is taking - I have to guess if i hear something you will hear something or the other way around. We can help one another stay sane....just a thought. I could use this discussion right now. I also have been to South Africa twice since this process, which seems you are in the same position. Also, I would love to see other areas of South Africa - That might be fun?

-Jesse

We are trying to get a K1 visa...Vermont service center..South Africa......Vermont Service Center recieved my petion on 10/23/07....How long does the approval really take...Does anyone out there think we could be married in the US in April 2008 or am I dreaming

November has simply crushed this year's previous record month total of 48 (March). With 77 approvals and one more day to go, we could damn near double that old record. I know that there are some serious problems in organization but VSC has certainly turned a corner. If they find and approve all those overdue filers, I'd even say that they are running at full steam. Finally.

Congrats Kathryn!! Awesome news.
