To the Canadian gals, be jealous, cause my medical was in Edmonton and interview in Calgary 15 years ago however lol.............neener neener....

I just went on the immigration timeline, and was so happy to see your name on the approved list. Congrats!!! I knew that you were going to get it this week.

Wow ... so much anxiety right now ... just got a touch literally sometime in the last 15 minutes ... I got home from work looked and it still said 5/05/09 .. just looked after taking a shower and was just updated with 8 / 10 /09 ..... wow I really hope the approval is on its way soon ..

I can't wait to join the happy train in this thread ...

CONGRATS ALLIE ... I know you been stressing and worrying like myself and Jenelyn so it is awesome to hear you got the NOA2!!

PS: However it still says Case received and Pending

Wow, that is great news. It could be the final "touch."

All the other petitions that left the same day have already arrived at their consulates--all but those from Africa and one from Cuba

oh, Guangzhou China?

Not in my batch. Tanzania, Ghana, Senegal, South Africa, Cuba, and one to Singapore. Is that where your petition is going? Hope yours gets there soon!

I had a busy day at work. Went on USCIS to see if I got the lucky touch. No touch yet.

Starlight95, you have a bit to go being you filed late May. Maybe late August or early September may be when your approval's coming...so far its been average 3 months for alot of people...crossing fingers for you!

[Allie and Nigel 2]

Somedaysomehow-sure hope you get your NOA2 soon, being you filed almost the same time as me and a few others here...this week will be golden i'm sure of it! So funny, i was so obsessed with this week seeing if i'd get any approvals and I was dreaming last night that I had to do it ALL over again like a RFE and i was shuffling papers all over the place looking stuff over and over and over...............LOL. Tonight I just cant stop smiling! I sure hope i can get a hold of Nigel tonight when he has to wake up for his morning shift job (UK time).......we'll see...right now i'm bored out of my tree! Maybe I'll clean something.....stay tuned............lol

Oops I guess mine went with the others on 8/6 to Hong Kong. I am going now to call the USEM. "Loaded" means they have it electronically and "Open" means they also have the hard copy.

Yes, I guess I do have a few more weeks to go. I just hope its late August though. So, far everyone in this group is getting approved. That is a good sign . Thanks for the positive hope.

OMG!!! I got so excited when I heard your approval Allie! Hopefully that means I only have another 10 days... Last touch was 5-15, on the letter it's dated 5-12.... please please please let me be soon!! Riggs is just like Nigel with the whole, "lets not get too excited about things" and " I'll relax when I get through security at the airport, not before then!"... it will be so frustrating when he's not jumping up and down freaking out with me! Those brits... lol...

It's hard to keep up with you guys. All of you ar so way ahead of me...lol. But, I am sure the feeling is great to be speeding through this journey.

Wait until a couple months from now when you notice the (for the sake of this example) October thread and you feel so bad for all the people in there who still have so long to go. You start wishing that they has applied when you did so they could be getting their approvals now. I often wonder if the people who applied in January look at the April filers thread and think that.

Yeah, that's why the threads are split up by months so that folks with the same month NOA1 dates can share their experiences. I can imagine that people that had a January/Feb/March NOA1 date or May/June/July NOA1 date would feel more at home in their monthly thread and not in the April thread, but that is up to them. I agree that we have a lively bunch here so I can feel that many of you are here for the "action" and that is fine.

Well I just woke up to check the website again before going to work here ... still says Case received and Pending but still with the updated last touch of 08-10-2009 ... so like many others here I can expect to get the approval in about 2-3 days in my mailbox? I sure hope it is finally happening WOOT

Have a good day you all .. time for me to go make a penny or two

[attaya_girl 1]

SS, I bet that's your NOA2! That seems to be how it's going lately. I never got any touches around my approval time, no e-mails, and my case still says "received and pending." I think the fact that they logged an update means that your NOA2 hardcopy is coming soon!

In other news---they received my paperwork at the embassy in Dakar this morning!!!! Woot woot!

One of my bosses keeps laughing at me getting so excited and keeps telling me, "You are so obsessed." Well, yeah. I am obsessed. I didn't think anyone could fault me for that. Oh-and it's not like I'm walking around all day talking about the visa process-I just get excited when something new happens, then I try to go back to work. Just kind of surprised that anyone would expect me to be anything less than thrilled by the progress that's been made in the last two-three weeks.
