OH MY GOD FOLKS; WE'VE BEEN APPROVED!!!!!!!!!

Receipt Number: EACxxxxxxxxx

Application Type: I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On December 19, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

i cant not beleive it, im still looking at the email i got from Cris. Finally after 233 days, thats the best x-mas gift ever!!! Thank you all for the support and prayers!!

Congratulations to you!!!!!! :thumbs:

I read the updates each day, and while waiting for ours, I've actually been getting upset wanting all of you May and June filiers to get yours! I know the frustration right now that you must have felt being happy and excited for everyone in your date range to be approved but patiently trying to wait for yours. Here's hoping that VSC wishes all of us a Merry Christmas by approving them tomorrow!!!

Byron,that's how I feel......sad-049.gif

Nobody at VSC loves me...

VSC and the whole process seem so surreal, you can't plan your own life ahead of time.

Late August filers are being approved while June and July petitions are sitting on some adjudicator's desks (next to the famous rotten apples) collecting dust.

I'm usually of the patient kind, and I truly feel happy for anybody getting approved,but these petitions which sailed through "so fast" make me feel like #######???

I apologize, guys,I guess I'm just having a weak moment...

I just don't get it. I work in the Service Industry myself,and if the company I work for would provide this kind of service to their customers, I KNOW that he11 would break lose .....
