Yes, it does seem like it was a good day for sure! Congrats to Tom and Mia, and if I've forgotten to congratulate anyone else please accept my apologies. CONGRATS to *all* the new approvals!

I tried this method just now because our case was touched on 2/20/08 and 2/21/08.

Talked to a representative, asked her why the recording said there is a request for evidence.

She said there isn't one, and that my case was approved on 2/20/08!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

They just haven't updated the case status online yet.

Thanks TBoneTX!

Well, everyone, I'm leaving my lists unattended for a week and a half. Tomorrow I'll be off to Russia to be with Elina when she goes for her interview, and, fingers crossed, we'll be back here together on March 5th. Wish us luck!

With the interview coming up, this is how I feel: :dance::wacko::dancing::blink::dance::wub::D:wacko:

GAH! For some reason I didn't think this was til next week.

Best of luck to you both, and PLEASE keep us informed!!! What a great time this has been for our little Russian community, keep up the momentum! :)

Yeah, until a couple of days ago, I didn't know it was going to be next week either. Then 2 days ago the embassy finally gave us an expedite and here we are, interview next week. Aaahh!!! I'm just so glad we've been extremely proactive in getting everything ready for the interview ahead of time. :thumbs:
