I just confirmed with CSC that both of my CR1 + K3 got approved on 05/08/2008. On USCIS's website, it still shows pending for both, so that's why I needed even get an e-mail notice.

I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo HAPPY!!

I just updated my timeline here, but I was only given a space to put in my K-3 approval date, what about my CR-1? Does anyone know?

I got touced on both 5/8 & 5/9, but my status showed still pending. Due to the confusion address (2 same house # on the same street) I have in my neighborhood, I decided that I will call USCIS using RFE to confirm my address and make sure that they didn't send letter asking for more documents. The lady at CSC said, " Why you call? What do you want to send? Don't send here, because you are approved and your case will be send to NVC soon. I said, the status still shows pending and I don't believe you, can you please double check for me, because my further is in your hand now!" She said they don't have enough people doing update, because of the heavy load. To me, that's fine, just get all to work on approval sounds good to me.

Thank you to everyone here and those who helped me a lot. Also, I have just updated my timeline for both I-130 & I-129F now. Thanks again!

Today, I recieved an email notice that both I-129F and I-130 were approved! I know this is just another step, but I could not be any happier at this moment. We did not have any touches prior to this. The online case status was changed to APPROVED on both applications.

After reading the email that said the notice was mailed May 9th, I rushed to the post office to see if by some miracle the postal service had delivered the hard copy, but no luck. You can bet that I will be checking several times a day for the next few days.

Congratualtions to all the others who have recieved thier NOA2. For those of you who are still waiting, please have faith, do not lose hope!

My thoughts and prayers go out the victims of the earthquake in China. I pray that the loved ones and families of all those on VJ are safe.
