Just want to let you all know the online case status is obviously not updated the exact time there is action taken, because I just found out yesterday that my husbands I129f had been approved on the 18, last Friday. 263 days total since we filed the petition. I had called the 800 center and got passed to an immigration officer and she looked up our case and found that it was approved. It's a good thing I decided to call again. I had just said goodnight to my husband and we were quite frustrated about the wait, so I decided to call once again and really make some noise this time!
I was shocked, and so happy to hear the news I had tears in my eyes! The immigration officer was so sweet, she said, "now, call your husband to let him know!"
It was 2am London time when I called him back, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep! He called me back at 3:30am! Poor hubby, thank God it is Friday so he could rest this weekend. I'm going to visit him for a couple weeks in July, as we have already booked a flight. It'll be so lovely to go see him in London before he comes here!![Cool](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/cool.gif)

It is a relief! The delay was because we had the wrong kind of photo at first, but then sent the correct kind.
All the best to you too!
