Ana I totally agree with you, this is starting to get on my nerves TIRED of waiting !!!

William you are right, could not agree more!!!

But we are getting close, in a month we should be getting approved!

Lets stay positive and enjoy the time that we have left with our family and friends

[Jenni and Bo 0]

Hello all my lovelies!

Greetings from the *entirely too* warm South I made it into the country alright on Saturday Had THE NICEST CO I had him back in April as well...I think he should always train them

Bo is going to get our couch and loveseat now....it's 2nd hand, but we went to see them today and they are in great shape. I am having a great time here, and I don't mean to sound like I'm rubbing it in...I really hope we are all with the people we love very soon!

I just wanted to say hi and it's good to see everyone is alright

Will: I am sorry to hear about Lara! I hope she is alright!

Alex: I know that it sucks to see such a long period to wait for the interview...Im looking at the same thing for Montreal, but there will be SO much to do in those couple months, I really think they will fly by!

I will have to go take a gander at Igor's list when I'm done here...Haven't checked in about a week

<3 Jen

P.S - holy #######! We got touched today!

Congratulations on your touched ! It would be nice if we could start seeing some approvals

USCIS you bunch of :ranting:

Just what I was thinking. Is it normal to view USCIS as center of all evil in my life???

Unequivocally YES

Jenn, don't u worry bout "rubbing it in" . I'm so happy u are enjoying ur time with Bo!!! And congrats on that touch!!!

Alex, I so hope for October. Though, judging by the timeline, you should be there before me. Hm... I am still full of hope!!! How is Portugal, still sunny? Well, I just found out my close college friend is getting married in two weeks and I have to make a trip to Kiev, Ukraine's capital. Plan on taking ur advice and turning it into a weekend with all the friends I have up there and of course been there for her special day .

Dairy, looks like there's been some movement on the CSC side!!! Well, it's about time they start doing their job!!!

William_wallace, how is Lara's back? Hope she is feeling better!

Hello everyone. She's still in a lot of pain Ana. She got admitted to hospital 2 days ago as the pain has spread to her neck, arm and leg. She's had 2 MRI scans and a CAT scan to find out where the pain is coming from.

She's seeing a neurologist this morning, so hopefully find out more today.

Thanks for everyone else asking for her.

Good morning May.

Us April folks are trying to clear things out for you guys to move on through but the uscis isn't helping us much right now! Hopefully we'll see it speed up again and you wont have to wait as long as we are.

William, so sorry to hear about Lara. It must be very difficult for you not being able to take care of her. I hope she is all healed up soon.

Cheers Kim. I have to say it does suck being 3500 miles away and not being able do much but be here for her on the phone.

Am so sorry to hear that!!! Hopefully they were able to figure out what is causing the pain and start the treatment!

Good to see more approvals ... Keeps me positive and smiling, though I can't deny that the waiting is driving me mad.

Just out of curiousity ... where's Igor's legendary list? lol

Good luck and fast approvals to everyone!

Here you go: Igor's List - VCS

Thank you very much! Looks like we still have a couple of people ahead of us

I try to stay as zen as possible, and I must say it goes surprisingly well this time. Times before, when we actually had a date to look forward to when we were going to see eachother again, it seemed much harder being apart. Now we know that at the end of this journey we'll be together and we don't have to go through hello's and goodbye's anymore ... That's what makes me smile But of course there are some days when it's harder and a couple of tears are being shed. Just keep hanging in there VJ-ers, look forward ... Only a couple of months from now will be wonderful, and us May-filers are probably halfway our journey already. Good luck to everyone and a NOA2 sooner, rather than later!

Does anybody know if there's a good thread on the board about taking personal belongings with you when you move permanently to the US? What the cheapest way is to ship your stuff? Which the cheapest company is? Thanks!

w_w, sorry to hear about Lara ... I know it's frustrating!

There are heaps of them. This one is from the UK but might give you some starting points.
