Well, a good bit of news for me. My NOA2 approval email notification arrived last night, Nov 2nd.

I logged onto the USCIS site yesterday to see that I had been touched. WOW! It was the first touch since my NOA1 notification date. When I checked my email this morning, there were 4 emails waiting for me, announcing the approval of my case.

I’m ecstatic right now! I’ve been lurking on this site now for a couple of months, quietly experiencing with some of you, all the highs and lows of this grueling process.

Hopefully, many of you that have been waiting longer will get the good news you deserve very soon.

I noticed that CSC has been picking up their pace lately. I actually was expecting SOME type of news, because I’ve been seeing some of you with NOA1 dates approaching mine, begin to get your approvals.

One thing I would like to say to anyone who hasn’t yet filed: if you are planning to send in your airline boarding pass as proof of your visit with your fiance(e) in the last two years, some boarding passes do not include the YEAR of travel, just the month and day. I noticed this on my old boarding pass, so I included my frequent flyer statements and hotel receipts from my trips to visit my fiancee in Manila.

Anyway, good luck to you all, and I hope you get the good news you are waiting for, very soon.
