Me too. (Mailed my app in on Jan. 31st actually but thanks to the good ole' Canadian postal service, it didn't get there until Feb. 11th...)

P.S. ddobro2 if you'd like to update the spreadsheet by adding my actual app sent/received dates, go for it, though I think it might kinda throw off the overall data since it organizes by sent date. Up to you!

Thanks!! We are FLOORED :D

Anyone know of a good place to overnight in buffalo???
Not expensive but not a crapshack and close to where we need to be.

Has anyone ever gone with their PR spouse or wait in the hotel?

Congrats Shelley!!! There are a few hotels near the Consulate. Embassy Suites, Hyatt, and Comfort Suites. The Hyatt is reasonable and a free train ride to the HSBC tower where the Consulate is.

Good luck!

I'm still waiting,

13 months now.

Got an email from Buffalo that said our application is "actively being reviewed" and that "we shouldn't have to wait much longer"

I need everyone's prayers
