James1 Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I am new to this site. Just wanted to introduce us. I hope this is not being posted in the wrong place, I looked around and could not see a specific area.Ying and I met online last year. After many letters everyday, and getting to know each other quite well. We decided to take the next steps. I went to China and we were engaged. I live in Tennessee and Ying lives in Chongqing for now. Any advise would be appreciated.We filed the I -129F petition in March. I recieved and E-mail stating it had been approved and the approval notice was being sent out on May 6, 2008. Which seems very quick after looking on the timelines here, and by USCIS's processing times that are posted there that say they are currently processing Oct 17, 2007 applications. Is this normal to recieve approval before they show pprocessing that date on the web site? Link to comment
DongDong Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Welcome, James&Ying! I believe you are right, VSC has been faster than CSC of late. Anything that is faster in this process... is a good thing Best of luck on the rest of this journey! Link to comment

Sebastian Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 one thing that i found useful - CFL is chock full of info. Read the EZFAQ here. http://candleforlove.com/FAQ/CFL_EZ_FAQ.htm The basic CFL faq toc is here - http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...mp;#entry233487 The search engine is a bit off, so use The Google instead - ie go to google.com enter ... site:candleforlove.com <<search terms>> and you'll find a bunch o stuff that's useful. also, if you go here - http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php pick a topic, then find a thread with over 20 pages, then jump in the middle, say page 11, and READ ... it has a lot of insight. Don't read the endings and goodbyes section, it'll just depress you at this state of yer journey. Link to comment

warpedbored Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Welcome to CFL! kick back take your shoes off and settle in with a bag of Cheetos for the long wait. This is without a doubt the best site on the web for visa information as it pertains to China. Here is a link to some other links that will help you navigate CFL and the visa process.http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=16183 Link to comment
