Congratulations.

No time like the present to start using the correct terminology. The USC files a petition. When approved, the foreign fiance(e) is allowed to "apply" for a visa using an "application". Mixing these terms can complicate the process of getting answers to your questions later.

Hi all,

What was the initial problem with the first I-129F rejection?

NOTE: Even with your initial delay, your processing is a lot faster than many of us who filed in Oct '07, so maybe that gave yours some priority due to the original mishap.
