I need some encouragment!!!!

[nurse1967 287]

I mailed my I-130 on February 10th and they received it at the lockbox on the 23rd. So far I haven't received a thing from them and they have not cashed my check. I am having a meltdown!!! I called USCIS and they politely told me to call back when it's been 30 days. By then I will need meds. LOL can anyone else tell me if they have had to wait this long??

Thanks!

From what Ive seen with the ladies going thru Egypt, is patience has to be a learned skill, there will be plenty of waiting along your journey. look at some of the timelines for people that have do or are doing K-3's from Egypt and u will get an idea of what kind of wait u are in for.

Goodluck, and remember patience.

You're getting upset already? It's only been at the lockbox for a week. You better pull up those big girl pants and have some patience...you're in for a wait. I wouldn't expect to hear from them for another 2-4 weeks.

Mine was a long time ago now but it seems to me it was about a month from the time I mailed it until I got the first NOA. and yes, I will echo what the others said, you have a long wait ahead of you - several months at least - so its better if you can find your happy peaceful place and settle in for the long haul.

good luck and take care

Thanks for everyone's support!!! I just needed to get that first contact with USCIS and my Noa1 came today. I know I have to be patient and I will no matter what!! Thanks guys!

Hi Betsy,

Cairo is slow, but thankfully you won't be doing 100% with them, I hope. Be patient with them, but consistent. And please please don't look at my timeline and freak out. Look to the others who DO have the K visa's who went through the same process. (I saw you checked out my profile page thingy and I don't want you to think yours will go the same way as mine, so wanted to send that encouragement).

Oh thank you so much!! I wish that everyone's case could be quick and speedy. It is so hard to be away from the one you love. What else can we do but wait???? Thanks for all your support.
