Hey! Charles and Karina were approved today (filed 05-18) :thumbs::dance: That´s great! Congratulations :D

So maybe they aren´t having a day off after all...or how else is that possible? Anyway, my crazy hopes and suggestions are: the rest of May filers should get approved this week, June filers the next week and since there are less June filers then the week after they should start July filers :D:thumbs:

I'd be jealous they got approved in a week and it took us all 4 months! but just cause we suffered doesn't mean they have too!!!! (although in reality they have been waiting a while as well) there is always wishfull thinkin!!!! but for sure all us May Filers this week!!!!!!!

I'm thinking of calling today----Did you call and use the so-called RFE trick? or what?

Still no touch, no NOA1, no NOTHING-----I am very encouraged to see that they are working on applications submitted on the 24th-----Gosh----that's us!!!! The ever patient Alane and Ramzis.

Alane and Ramzis,

Thats exactly what I used, the RFE trick and was extremely polite with the lady that picked up the phone. Asked her how she was doing etc. I told her that my friend was a lawyer and advised me that if my cased hadn't been looked at in this amount of time I had an RFE, and I was curious what that was so I could prepare the documents. And any help would be great! and after a few minutes and a few holds she told me that they were workin on cases for the 24th of May! BUT dont let this get your hopes up because someone else on VJ was told they were working on cases submitted on a different date so i think this can still vary from 3 to 5 days or so!

good luck with the RFE trick and please post what info (if any) you may get!!!!!! thanks! :thumbs:

Congrats!....Did you receive your approval in the mail or via an email or were you checking your case online?

I must have checked my case online just as it was being updated, because I checked it this morning and it showed my case was "received and pending" and was last updated 10/8/07. Then I checked my email when I got to work...nothing. A few minutes later I checked USCIS again, my case was updated today 10/9 and it said we were approved 10/8. Then I checked my email & the CRIS email was there.

I am still so excited! I will be much more productive at work now that I won't be checking USCIS every 30 minutes!

Well.....I just called..... the guy was nice---but not too smart----he read the March date as the current processing times, so I know I did not get a good rep. He said my case was still pending, which I know from reaading other VJ'rs messages, that doesn't mean anything-----remaining the ever patient, Alane & Ramzis
