Go to love the system!
hehe...aye, it's a system to hate, I had my AOS interview back in March, but the background check hadn't come through, then to find out my officer was off on maternity leave and no one else was signing off on my case, and by time someone got around to it, the finger prints had expired, found out about that after going down for an info pass jobby...what a laugh hmmm

Glad to hear the good news Bob...it sure seems like your case has dragged on for ever. Ever think of a career in Immigration Law?

I know what you mean... I thank God we could do DCF, but I am looking forward to her being able to become a citizen and forget the immigration bullshit forever.
