Thanks all for your kind words, nice picture, good suggestions and PM. Hope to hear good news soon from you too!

And who says they don't listen and act? ;D :p

GOGOGO said:
I wish I can say the same soon... NYC... please... my birthday is in May... Hint Hint! :D
EDIT:

e-CAS still showing "In progress"...
We received your application for permanent residence on September 27, 2011.
We started processing your application on February 1, 2012.

Nothing else. No "Medical Received".

By the way, I'm non-US citizen. They did not ask me to attend interview. 8)

Ecas says "in process" We started processing your application on January 6th.

It does't say anything about meds at all.

It may get to the stage where I order my notes however thats just going to allow me to read what they aren't doing - it isn't going to speed up the process. So i'll wait patiently with my still unopened celebratory bottle of wobbly pop in the fridge ;)

From our experiences here, sometime the VOs respond but sometimes they don't.
How did you notify them?

I'm still around for a while, although I promised my husband to cut down my addiction to this forum! :p

May is coming soon! Is your package pretty much ready to be mailed out?

Kiri said:
Congrats GOGOGO!!!! Does this mean you're going to be leaving us here? :p lol I'm happy for you, and hope I get some of that luck. Sending my application package out in a month xD
