I800 approval - sort of

September 9, 2010

We found out yesterday that our immigration officer has issued our I800 approval... the first of the many steps we have to work through. However, as expected, she still needs the updated LOA before she can forward our case onto the division which handles cabling (transmitting) our information to the US Consulate in Guangzhou.

Unfortunately, three weeks after the fact, there still is no sign of the LOA... our agency requested the updated LOA the very same day we received it. Hopefully, it will be arriving any day now and I can get it off to my officer. Until then we are stalled completely, and that's an unpleasant feeling...
