Some GOOD news...

I know what that probably sounds like. It sounds like we got a match. Well, that's not quite right. They are still running about 20 months right now, still expected to go to as much as 24 months. However, we did get some news that we won't have to pay again for our immigration documents. Our current I-171H will expire before we get a match. That was a catch/22 because in order to get approved, we needed the I-171H which is only valid for a certain amount of time, but the wait is LONGER than that time. After we got our I-171H, the USCIS raised their fees for this document. We thought we were going to have to pay this new fee for the document, but with the new developments, we won't have to pay for the second filing.
Now, the bad news, still not going to get a match THIS year.
