I guess it is awfully quiet today since no one is working in USCIS due to Veteran's day, huh?

So ya'll doing here?

[adiiann 163]

Yeah... kinda quiet..

I guess I'll be busy starting this Friday because of my class. I have only one subject this semester because I need to give more time for my work. I feel like I'm getting paranoid for this waiting game. Anyway, I'm happy to see that the July filers starting to get NOA 2, which mean processes are moving now. I hope by January, we will see progress in our petition. B)

Guys!... Do you check your timeline here in VJ? I just noticed that my adjudicated time is between 02/20 - 02/28, then it was change into 02/02 - 02/08. Kinda happy to see that it is stepping ahead of initial time. Is your adjudicated time also change?

At this moment. I'm not yet sleepy and I enjoy reading some postings here. I wonder if you have sleepless nights too? I do have, and I wait for my Bebe ko's call before I sleep. It's kinda late for me now coz of daylight saving.

I wonder how did you cope up with all the missing of your fiancé? Sometimes, it is really getting into me esp when my Bebe ko is complaining how much he miss me. "sigh" I feel so helpless and making myself so busy is not enough to ease the misery. But we need to do little sacrifices for our ourselves. It's impractical if I will let him see me because not missing him is just momentarily and once he goes back again, I will still miss him evenly. We better save our money for more fun once we're together.

I will not beat around the bush here but I tell yah when I came back from seeing my SO last August, shoot! It was very difficult, I hated the month of August, I was stressed, taken to the hospital twice. But then when Septermber rolled along I was ok, why?

1. Coomunication - Always commnunicate with your SO, emails, text, whatever just keep in touch! makes me feel like they are just around the corner.

2. Keep busy, distracted, makes time go fast.

3. STOP checking USCIS, processing times, this WILL KILL YOU!

4. Be strong for you and your SO, be faithful.

5. Keep posting, VJ is a great place to vent and just hang out online.

You will make it my friend, I did, just look at my timeline and you will see what I am talking about.

Take Care all of you GODSPEED and fast approvals and good journey for all of us here!

I just got back Monday night so I am going through the typical, no sleep, no eating phase which usually takes me about 4 or 5 days to pull myself out of the slump and then I am back to normal. During these 4 or 5 days I get absolutely nothing done, and I start counting the days til the next trip: 26 days and counting

Hopefully with the election over we will start seeing a big number of approvals this month.

I tell yah! this is an absolute test of your love to see how strong we are in hanging on, THANKS USCIS! hahahaha!

Hang in there!

I checked, mine moved up about a week. it now says 1/21/09 to 1/26/09. Thanks. I try not to check so often, just makes it seem like forever. But when the news is good, everyone should know.

I assume most people are chatting on-line with their SO, but if your not, I would reccomend it. If your SO has access to a computer also, and a web-cam, Yahoo Messenger, Skype, etc work great. and you can see your SO as well as talk for free. If they dont have a computer - and you have the means, I saw a cheap computer with built in web-cam at COSTCO the other day for about $350 - main purpose is just email and internet, but that is basically what you need.

My Fiancee is currently back in the Philippines, and her hometown is in the provinces, so internet connection is not great. Under this circumstance, Yahoo seems to work better than Skype (less bandwidth I think). I miss her being in Japan where she had a great internet connection and I could see her just about any time of the day.

[Fred N Emilia 0]

YES! That's what me and my SO uses, Yahoo!

Keep track of your chats, log them, your webcam log them with the dates (screenshots), as much tracking and logging as you can do for evidence when it comes to interview time. It's best to be ready than corry.

We are Sept filers as well...patiently going crazy waiting for some news! Here's our timeline thus far:

Feb. 12, 2008-I met Aldo while vacationing on the Riviera Maya in Mexico

Apr. 2008-Aldo moves to Louisiana on a temporary six month work visa (something he does annually)

Apr.-Sept. 2008-Numerous visits between Utah and Louisiana for Aldo and I

Aug. 30. 2008-K1 application filed by our attorney

Sept. 2, 2008-Application received by USCIS

Sept. 4, 2008-Check cashed by CSC

Oct. 20, 2008-Aldo returned to Mexico

Oct. 29, 2008-I joined him for 5 days to meet his family

Even though filing the app, the receipt and the check cashing all happened within a few days we haven't heard anything since...how do you know when they've "touched" your application??

PLEASE FILL IN YOUR TIMELINE

[AaronLV 12]

I bought her a computer Asus EEPC 1000H, small, very portable, plenty of power for everything she needs to do. I ended up buying a separate webcam though cause the one with the computer was really dark most of the time. We don't chat on the computer as often as I would like. But we do text message and talk on the phone most of the time.
