My husband and I also filed in November. We sent it in on the 11th, and recieved our NOA1 on the 17th. Since then...nothing. I'm trying to be patient, but it's so hard!

welcome to the circle.

Wishing us all, a good year of full of luck!

Happy holidays to everybody.

Still no news for us either. It's been so tough for us especially during holidays.

I guess we just need to keep praying.

Hi and Happy Holidays to you all.

I see so many of us are feeling the seperation anxiety and frustrations with USCIS but let me tell you I know it's hard but we must be strong and keep the faith that all will work out and we will prevail.

I had spent every day of the last 2 1/2 years basically with my wife in the Phils. We have a son who is 15 months old now and we decided that it would be too much of a physical burdon on her to bring him with her when she travels to the U.S. I had left in september I brought our son with me to the states.

My wife is sad that we are here and she is there basically alone, she has friends and some relatives but it's not the same as being with us. Being strong is definately getting hard to do as the days or months are passing by. We have been in the system for 2 months now and we know it's going to take longer. The lack of info from USCIS is the most frustrating but we look at it as hurdles, CSC is one hurdle then NVC etc, we just have to overcome and keep pushing along.

We do the web cam and skype thing a few times a day every day but it's still not the same. My wife had a mini meltdown today of sadness and after calming her I told her that thank god it's not 25 years ago when we would be only snail mailing each other and the I-130 process toook a minimum of 2 years to accomplish.

Shes better now, and I hope you all please reassure each other that it's just part of the journey that we have to endure and when we are together as families that's when the REAL journey begins. The journey to always make our loved ones feel just that...Loved.

To all of you I hope you keep the faith and always be strong, don't worry about your cases just worry about each other and reassure each other every day that sooner or later this will all be a memory.

Thanks

My heart goes out to you all with a young family. Not that it is any easier being in love when you are older, but for some of us we are not missing the precious beginning years of our child/children's development. Here's to speedy approvals in the new year.

GOOD things comes to those who wait upon the LORD.

Happy New Year everyone. For sure, this year our papers will be approved and we're gonna spend our Christmas and New Year's Eve with our husband and wife in USA...

I claim that in JESUS NAME!

Hi all,

Hope you all had happy holidays. Happy new year.

I have a question regarding the last post. What do you mean that "I noticed that my timeline changed.. before it was June to Aug and now its April to June... "?

I am going to China to see my wife in 2 weeks. She is so excited. We are going to celebrate Chinese New Year together at Shenyang China.

We kept discussing when we will get NOA2. I heard the processing time should get faster this year.
