She shouldn't really have anything to worry about with her history. Last I remember on this thread, the typical times seemed to be around 1-2 weeks? Anyone know if that has changed.

On a somewhat related note, I did have a friend tell me about 3 weeks ago that she got and accepted an offer to get a faster approval process - I think she said $50, and believe this was through GOES (SO did not get this option). Have not heard that mentioned here. If it makes a difference, friend is a Canadian citizen/resident.
Interesting, because my SO and i applied 16 days ago and we're still 'pending review'. Before we applied I heard of many mentioning a ten day period before approval for an interview was granted. Not sure why there should be any delay and I'm also wondering if something has changed. We're both US citizens.
