Hi Everyone,

It is my great pleasure to inform you that our Visa was approved yesterday (evening for me). After a mere 357 days... Oy said it went very smoothly not a long wait, or many questions.

I suppose I better find something formal to wear ^^ :dance:

Best regards and luck to everyone in process hang in there. :thumbs:

FANTASTIC!!!!

Congratulations to the both of you! I've seen some of your past posts and know that you guys have been waiting a looooooong time. Now you both have proven the old adage/axiom, "Good things come to those who wait" <haha>.

Before you know it, she'll be here and you'll be waiting for AOS. However, I've found that AOS is much easier to wait for, because you get to be together while you wait.

Peace and continued good luck!

Thank you all

I'm still in shock, it's really over.. I just bought tickets and still, I just can't imagine I'm not going to wake up everyday wondering. I leave on the 17th and return together on the 25th.

it's really done.

Thanks for all the help gang.
