Re: DCF: I-130 Filing in London - Timeline Only!
Well, things seem to be moving along quickly...
August 30th - I-130 mailed to London
September 5th - I-130 officially filed and money taken
October 5th - Petition approved!
Got a couple of questions about the process now, but I'll start another thread to ask them. This all seems to be going far too smoothly.
