July '08 filers

[kiwiana 2]

I'm really happy for the sept filers at vermont who are already getting their noa2. I mean it must be such a wonderful feeling to receive it all ready.

As far as vermont goes. I was wondering if maybe someone at the centre got the files mixed up and somehow started processing recent applicants pile by mistake? If so, I just WISH that CSC could make the same mistake!!

I don't want to criticize csc too much as i am sure they are snowed under with petitions and all the other visa forms they have to deal with etc but some days i just wish that someone could wave a magic wand over their asses and get them moving a bit quicker!!

I know! I know! i am just being impatient here but can't help it. What i was thinking though is with the upcoming elections in the USA in November ( is it?) will this slow down the process do you think at csc? Sometimes when a govt changes leaders/parties it can throw some govt dept out of keel kind of thing.. I hope not..

Anyway, hope everyone is doing fine!!

I'm so glad that you guys are expressing all of the same frustrations and feelings that I do. It is def nice to have people to know what u are going through!

Tomorrow morning it will be 106 days since i have seen Johny. I cannot even believe it has been that long and I have survived it also...Over 100 days...and still is not any easier and the waiting just gets worse and worse. I really hope we get our letter in October even though the timeline shows November. I am sure there is a reason that these September filers are getting theirs already. Maybe their loved one is is giving birth or something, I don't know.

Just in case you don't know already, I wanted to spread the word that June filers HAVE begun receiving their NOA2s. Here are two results from Vermont filers. I have no clue how California is doing because I have been keeping a closer eye on Vermont since that's my USCIS Center...But this is good news anyway

I-129F 6/5/08, NOA1 6/23/08, NOA2 9/18/08 (105 days)

I-129F 6/2/08, NOA1 6/6/06, NOA2 9/5/08 (95 days)

I know it's crazy waiting and everybody is sick and TIRED of it...but our time is coming

I just get fustrated that Vermont is SO much faster and I can't understand why. I did some research and Vermont gets about the same amont of visas as California, yet we are what, 1 to 2 months behind them?? It is SO crappy that we have to wait THAT long compared to Vermont. I have been keeping busy though soit is going FASTER!! LOL

I'm not sure why you think VSC is faster...it was at one time, but it isn't anymore. This morning from the list there are 4 approvals out of CSC and 2 out of VSC, all on the 26th. All May filers.

Because Vsc has JUNE approvals...WE have only may...so therefore THEY are faster:) that is why:)

YES they have slowed down but not enough to be where CSC is:)

A year is tough. The longest I've ever gone without seeing Jeremy is 6 months. Keep your head up and get some rest . I'm thinking we'll see some approvals of our own in November...hopefully, hopefully!!

We are just coming up on a year. If we didn't have the webcam, I'd be a raving lunatic by now...

November. Seems like an eternity away from now. This last week has dragged on for ages. Studio and internship job are pure stress atm (ever design an entire magazine in a week? that's what i'm doing. ugh!), and Andy's been too sick to get out of bed for several days. Two more months before I have a shot at an NOA2 is... yeah, I'm not going to start on that tonight.

Trying to keep busy, and I'll be an aunt a second time soon so that'll distract me a bit.

I had a dream today that someone from VJ told me my case was touched. I laughed in response at them, then checked and I'd gotten my NOA2 and was relieved and excited. Then I woke up.

Thank you Cham, your posts always cheer me up somehow. I had a good chuckle and smile from your tiara post. It's good to see you picking out items for the upcoming big day. I don't think I could put on a crown or I'd be the living portrait of what some people in high school said to me (that it's my way or the highway). Besides, Kira is the pretty princess of my house!

[kiwiana 2]

Yes, I agree a year is very hard. I too, only see my SO (physically in person that is)once a year

Like Cham, i try to keep myself busy and try not think too much about it (which of course is impossible some days) And of course coming to VJ and being amongst others who are going through the same as me helps a great deal too!

I don't think it matters if ones petition is at Vermont or California, we all have to wait (to what seems at times) like an incredibly LONG time for the forms to be approved. But like Koakland said, i too have a feeling that we may start to see some approvals in November (touch wood )

And when they do start rolling in, I can imagine the flurry of activity here, with questions asked about so and so form and what to send in etc. I know I will probably be at the front of the queue with my list of q's

Hope everyone is doing well!

Hey everobody, I'm a july filers too so I thought that it could be cool to be a part of this topic. How are you doing guys ? For me it is not so bad for now cuz' I am still in the US with my love, but I'll have to leave in 3 weeks cuz' it will be the end of my 90 days waiver visa. I can't stop thinking of how hard it will be to leave him without to know when I will see him again

I hope that the NOA2 won't be too long to get, I don't want to stay in France during months and months.

Anyway, I wish you the best !

Hello Juliette! You and I are both July filers, filed at CSC and will go through the embassy in Paris. Maybe our touches, approvals dates etc. will be similar???
