I appreciate the link! I have been following that thread, as well. I was trying to start a thread for US citizens because I read posts at the thread you suggested about some quick timelines (or even slower ones) and I get excited (or frustrated) but realize that they are not US citizens and I thought it would be easier to relate to the same. However, don't get me wrong, I realize that each specific immigration case is different from the next! I appreciate your help! Perhaps, I will just stick to that thread

Ok...no worries, I understand. We all want more answers than what we already know.
And ugh...sorry about my spelling, lol...I looke back and cringe because I do know how to spell. My iPad has auto correct, works most of the time but also has a mind of its own other times.
If it makes you feel better, my husband is an American citizen, our timeline (as boring as it in so far) is under my name... I'm really hoping for sponsor approval this week!

The only difference between citizens and non-citizens going through buffalo is the non-citizens often get called in for an interview.
Thanks for that info. I have noticed that, as well. It seems to me in what I have been reading that non-citizens' apps seem to be processed a bit quicker. Which is great for them, trust me, I wish all of our apps would be processed within a couple months so none of us would have to go through the waiting process. At least it's helping to teach me to be a more patient person

From what I have read it sounds like your sponsorship approval should arrive very shortly for you! So happy for you! We have received our sponsorship approval beginning of December, with an AOR from Buffalo end of December and a request for RPRF and FBI doc. Paid and mailed off Jan. 7th. Had to resend FBI doc due to first set being lost in the mail. Now...just patiently waiting. Or trying to patiently wait. Haven't been very successful at it

Hahaha yes patience or lack there of is really getting to all of us.
When I get to see my husband again in 10 days everything will feel "normal" again but the waiting game will start again once I go home :'( my visits to him could be worse...Florida is awesome and so is the weather that comes with it!
That's great that you guys are so close to the end, or the start depending on how you look at it.
Our one yeAr wedding anniversary is on sept 4 , we are trying hoping we can officially be together before that day.
Good luck with everything
