Hi Everyone,

Looks like CSC has issued a lot of approvals this week. Many October filers, but amazing to see some November filers get approved too. :wow:

I hope this improved pace keeps up until all of us have our approvals.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Yes, they seem to be crankin' them out pretty fast as of late.... It still amazes me that some people are getting approved in a matter of a couple of months, while others are pushing 5-6 months and longer...

Hello!!!! Wishing you guys lots of luck on your journey. You'll receive your NOA2 before you know it. I know it frustrating to wait. We're also November filers with CSC. CSC received our packet on November 10, 2008 and we were approved January 9, 2009. :dance: :dance: :dance: Now we are waiting for the packet 3 from Madrid. No word yet. My honey is also from Colombia. From Cali, Colombia. Currently living in Spain.

Keep us posted on your process. We'll be praying for you and everyone. Good Luck

Congrats!! I hope we're not far behind!

Which Igor's list are you looking at out of curiosity? I frequently check out the one on the timeline link above but there's another one I know of but can never find the link back to it. Any link is appreciated!
