Congratulations Glock19springtx. My anticipation is driving me crazy. You would think at my age I would have more patience. Let us know about your WW whenever possible. Again, Congrats.

You should be really close! Hang in there, I know it is tough! When the status never changes you don't know if you are making progress or if you are stuck and just don't know it.

Congratulations on the status change. Several of us had hoped that our status would have changed over the last two weeks. Guess it just depends on who is processing your app. Be sure to give us details of your WW.
