I reported early this morning of our approval.  I want to thank everyone for their comments and being so supportive.  Junrey says he hasn't been able to sleep since I told him.  I'm still coming down from the emotional rush.
I want to take the time to  make some comments about my K1 application for others who may feel they didn't do everything correct.
I submitted our application before I found VJ.  I just did everything the application and instructions asked for. 
After finding VJ I found so many things I did not do and believed there was a good chance for RFE.
1.  I didn't "frontload" the application.  I sent no photos (other than passport size photos requested)
2.  We sent one letter stating our intentions to marry.  We both signed and dated the same letter.  The letter contained one sentence.
3.  We sent one letter describing the circumstances of our meeting in person within the last 2 years.  The letter contained no more than 3- 4 sentences.
4. I did not provide a cover letter but did provide a cover sheet listing everything included in the application.
5. I did not provide copies of every page of my passport as it was not asked for.  Just the photo page and entry stamps.
6. I provided boarding passes, itineraries, and Airbnb reservations (by the way Tagaytay is beautiful)  that contained confirmations from both of us.
 
I had followed the application instructions,  but as time passed began to have doubts as to whether it was convincing.
When it comes down to it, we really don't know their criteria.
This journey teaches patience and there is still more patience needed.
 
 Thanks again for the support.  I will continue to follow because I want to see the excitement as everyone gets their approval.
 
 
 

In the middle of gathering  

@Naes or someone that does scanning,  
 
Could someone scan the Feb 2018 applicant amount?  I'd like to see how many there are in Feb and how many each day of the month.

I wouldn't make any set plans to pick up your fiance until you have the approval that they have the visa. But hypothetically if the approval was in August, you have up to six months to use the K-1 visa before it's void. So if you wanted to wait to pick her up you can do that! Just don't make set plans because there really is no way to know when your fiance will actually be able to come. 

This is a very generalizing statement that is not true for a lot of lawyers out there. Many lawyers have a code they have to adhere to or else they will be barred from doing their job (at least here in the Netherlands). Besides, once word gets out that they are lying intentionally to get more work they will be out of business before long.

I got it too👍

Ohh, sorry then.
Either way, it's a good sign- they got your petition.

Not yet. I'm hoping to get it sometime today or tomorrow.

They cash it first, and send the notification later. You should be getting it very soon.

We couldn't agree more! 
It would be a nice Valentine's Day present from the USCIS
