Hi Josie. Thanks for your input. I'm actually filing my first appeal.
From what I understand at this level, only a teeeeny % get approved.
I filed my initial app by myself and got my denial within 2 months. not sure if that was a good sign or not?!
That's wonderful that you got approved so fast!

Now ain't THAT the truth! I've had many breakdowns by trying to do too much on my own....and the pain. forget it. I can't handwrite for very long, so I type. Just the initial application forms took me a month of sundays to fill out. (or so it seemed)
