I got my hopes up for nothing

[Rodgiegirl 0]

Okay, so the last week, CSC was touching my application!! Yeah, I thought wow, I'm getting our approval! I got so excited and started telling my family and everyone that I thought our approval was coming within a week. Maybe I was too hopeful, but turns out they only touched it becuase the NOA1 that was supposed to be sent months ago never came, so they re printed it and sent it out. Bummer, I'm so depressed right now, I feel the big cloud of hopelessness taking over. Is is normal to feel this way? Sometimes I feel lilke I will never get to the day when the approve it. And even more people keep asking"so when's the wedding??" I don't even know what to say.........."ummmm I'm waiting on a visa!" What is this world coming to!!! That people who are in love can't be together with out the government allowing it!!!! I'm just venting of course, but really though!

I need to see the light at the end of the tunnel soon, because I feel like I'm going into the big black hole.

I know exactly how you feel. I never received a touch but I did expect to be approved in 90 days. I am trying to keep from getting depressed because I do not want my fiancee to get depressed. Having both of us in a funk would not be good for our relationship.

It is hard having to wait when you have no idea how long the wait will be. My timeline is very close to yours. Let's just hope CSC starts approving the rest of us May filers within the next couple of weeks.

Try to stay strong

many get the application approved and never see a touch, this is not a speedy journey u can not go to far in planning a weding because u might get disappointed in the timing, its a noted fact no one has died from waiting for the visa so hang tight and hope for the best. Use your time now to prepare for the interview. Also there are others far worse than yours, some have been working on this 2, 3, 4, years.....

I can totally understand the feeling of being touched. Sometimes I feel like I am being touched to death. Then like now, I have not been touched in 23 days and I wonder what happened....I feel like I am losing my mind. It does not help that it has been 181 days since I last saw Dris and it is the beginning of Ramadhan. As much as I wish he was here with me, I also wish I was in Morocco during Ramadhan to share it with him there. Sometimes I think that touch we wait for is worse then not being touched because just like you, we get our hopes so high. Then, they come crashing down. But on the bright side eventually hopefully we will all get that one touch that is our approval.

Good luck and I hope your next touch is your approval

Although it is hard, try not to worry. I was "touched" about 9 times while we waited for our petition to get approved and some people never get a touch and get approved. Hope you hear something soon!

It can feel like forever. I felt the way you did when I was waiting for the I-129F to be approved. But it did get approved, and then the K-1 visa got approved. It'll happen, but it takes time. Hang in there.

Thank you everyone for your encouragement. It's nice to know that there are people in your same shoes. I was trying to figure out how many day's it's been since I sent in my 129 F. Does any one know how I can get that little count down thing?? Thanks

Hi Rodgiegirl!

I think most everyone gets their countdown timer from this website: http://smileygenerator.us/t/countdown/

Not sure how much it helps...I look at mine and see 138 days today - OMG!

I hope we all see some approvals very, very soon!

Hey thanks so much!! Yeah, I was counting today and I think mine is 117 days! Oh well, this is the longest part of the process so I hear. So as soon as we get through this everything should be smooth sailing. I pray! Thanks again!!
