I am getting concerned people. My approval is still at NVC. I really hope I am not a chosen one for AP. I'll call again tomorrow but its been there for almost a week now.

Sometimes it takes a 7 to 10 days. It does not mean that there is an issue.

wow i am batting a 1000 tonight with you jawi. sorry about that. i wasn't even thinking when i wrote that. once again sorry.. lol . good luck to you both.

No problem babes....I know you've got love on your mind...*singing in my best Natalie Cole voice* and there's nothing particularly wrong....

I assume everyone's noticed already, but is it just absolutely cray cray that only about 3 VJ VSC K-1 people have gotten NOA2s since last Tuesday? A week and a half ago??? Please Vermont. Please. You're really, definitely hurting the team.

Hang in there...a lot of the NOA2 are arriving after the NVC letter/notice...so Igor's list is a little slow in getting updated I think.

Jawi... you are always welcome to come sit on the back deck for a BBQ and Mojitos! As is the rest of the Feb-Fam

Maire... NO.... not for stripping!!!

Vows in your SO's language... that is soooooooooooo cool... and thoughtful!

I absolutely love the idea of vows in the SO's language...maybe I should get A to learn a new language before we say I do. Which language is the sexiest?

congrats zambo on your approval :star:

just a side note for everyone else in this thread, ive been going back and reading the last few pagesa nd it is the craziest thread af all. its good to see that everyone can still joke around and be encouraging to those of us still left waiting. :star:

to those of you still waiting like me, our time is next, head up and keep busy and then it will be our turn to do the encouraging. :star:

thanks guys :D

We are a tight knit group...stick around and join in the convos...we are praying/hoping/wishing/cheering for you all still waiting.

Good morning my friends!!!

Patrick received Packet 3 yesterday...scared me half to death though..lol! He called the house at like 8pm my time (3am his time) to tell me he got it...not used to him calling so late..LOL! It took a while to come down of that high... :dance:

JAWI - GOOD LUCK!! Let us know how it goes!!!

Zambo - :dance: Congrats!!! :dance:

Everyone ok today???

I'm on pins and needles right now. I forgot that Jamaica is one hour behind me...so I'm sitting here counting down and saying okay any minute now the phone is going to ring...it's only 8:21 in Jamaica and his appointment is not until 8:30 AM so he hasn't even gotten started. *sigh* I have been up since 6 AM.

Good morning my sunshinessssssssssss....yesterday my SO go the first part of Medical completed wwohooooooooooooo

Hey lady! Woot! Woot! Isn't that a load off? Each item checked off makes you smile a little wider.

Good Morning Feb crew!!!!

hey guys,

after reading in a thread yesterday that NVC had some applications even though NOA2's had not been sent out, i got very VERY excited thinking ours may be one of them. i rang and wishful thinking, we were told to contact USCIS, they ahd not received our file yet. ah well, now i know there is someone on the other end of the phone in NVC i am going to plague them with calls until i hear those delightful words, "yes ma'am your application is here".

hope everyone has a good day

I have already gotten everything prepared and I have to keep my BH happy all the time. We got the approval and she is happy. She is the pessimist so I have to tell her everything is ok all the time. She thinks bad luck follows her. If this goes to AP i will have to convince her its not because of luck or any mystic reason. And we will have to stay apart for another 50 days, on top of the rest of the process.

Ap is Additional Processing at NVC. They randomly choose files (or so they say random) to look deeper into. They can last up to 3 months but on average its about 50 days.
