Don't expect it to change much.. most offices don't make any changes .. some state medicals received.. some state decision made when the visa is issued .. some dont change till someone has landed

It is a gruelling process unfortunately and we are left waiting

best wishes to all of us

thank you for all your kind wishes, Boncuk. Luck is the only thing we definitely need now as well as patience.
you think that the only way to have update about the application is a letter from the local visa office?
