You are officially refiled... but is it expedited too or do you have to wait to find out about that?

I'm king... so I guess well, it's time to start demanding NOA1... for AOS!... or maybe approved visa's... it's kind of a mess.... it's hard to know what to demand...

I would just go with demanding whatever for whomever ;)

And good luck to all ... I agree it's hard to keep up these days :)

(Edited: OH, it looks like I'm Dungeon Mistress again so I DO demand whatever for whomever!!!!)

Awww.... the weather has gone rotten, the trip to st louis is going to be about 55 degrees and a 50/50 chance of rain... we'll still see the arch but we don't really want to spend 5 or so hours hanging out outside if the weather is going to suck. It could still turn out decent, but I have a feeling we'll be hunting for some kind of mall or flea market or something to kill some time checking out.

It's been 8 months and NO NOA2! I called them today and they're putting in a service request. Since they wanted RFE (color pics) it restarted a separate 60 day clock which ended yesterday or so so at least they took the call rather than politely (or not so politely) putting me off like the call center's purpose fulfills.

VERY frustrating seeing people 1-3 months later than our application with their spouses here already. I just got back from a month in Thailand...did the ceremony (medieval old fashioned one with the India looking baggy pants wrapped and tucked between the legs, etc). It was about 100 degrees all dressed up. Ceremony took a few hours then we headed to a river front beach for innertubing and renting a thatch roof dock/cabana to hang out in. Had a great time but the wait is killing us. I really needed to see her again but the wait is wearing us down to say the least.

We only wanna be together but the US is incredibly incompetent compared to other developed nations.
