Natta, Khayat and Izzy,
Thanks for your responses, deeply appreciated. For the people who are current in October and are getting all documents ready and filling out all forms, there is the need to have a checklist to ensure that you send all forms and documents required so there is no delay in processing your petition, someone posted this checklist earlier in the thread and it has helped me get all my stuff together, hope it will helps someone too, so am reposting it, if there is anything i have omitted kindly input it. Thanks all.
