[Richard-Joanna 1]

Well according to my math, there are 74 couple left in my March family that are pending approvals... that is too many!

so this will have to suffice...

* 74

It's hard to believe that there were that many of us!! The bar graph at the top of the Igor's list page shows us almost 50% complete.

Ya'll all cross your fingers that I get my hard copy of the RFE today. I'm feeling like I am losing my grip here....

MISSY! I wont let you do that... so please dont make me slap you again

Yeah no letting go now! I'm sure we'll just have to tie your hands, don't make Richard take out the stapler...

Plus, the RFE will be there and you can get that out and continue on again

I seriously, just now when I read that laughed so hard! I have passed your slap around several times to others that needed it. I'm fine now, I needed that laugh!

I feel like I am losing my mind in addition to my grip lol!

I am really hoping to have my sweetie with me for Christmas! Last New Year's day I asked my dad if he would marry us (my dad is an Episcopal priest), but we decided to hold-off until Sean's family could come . . . That was when we had no idea about the Visa process!!!! I thought as Canadian he could just drive on down and live here! Ha!

On New Year's Eve last year we broke a chicken wishbone at midnight and we both made our wishes. I wished that we would get married in a year. We didn't tell each other what our wishes were of course, but we both had an idea that we wished for the same thing.

So this New Year we want to be husband and wife!

That is a very sweet story.... and you should have no issue making it come true... tie a knot onto the end of that rope and hold on tight... just a little while longer.... we are all here to help support each other... and the VSC is on crack as compared to just a few short weeks ago... so the good news is they are coming and we can see it!!!

Missy will slap you if that will help

stephen and elisha,,,,,,,did you hear anything yet??

Nope, not yet, no touches or anything. I might give 'em a call tomorrow anyway just to see.

Congrats on yours! You guys can celebrate together, how awesome is that?!

I called. Useless. The girl was very polite, and said they couldn't do anything until 5 months and a day—which will be the 28th.

strega (or anyone else who found out they got their NOA2 by calling), how did you get past the first-line operator to talk to someone who actually knew something and could check the status beyond what's posted on CRIS?

HOW DO U EVEN GET THEM ON THE PHONE???? I JUST HEAR RECORDED GENERAL INFO.....

[Arabella 4]

I've been very patient since starting this process, but now that people from March are actually getting their NOA2s I am going crazy! I am checking my email 10 times an hour and checking the USCIS website constantly.

Not even a touch! Aaaaahhhhh!!!!!!

Your file is dated around the time of the 2 (that I know of) that did not get an update or an email... perhaps you were in that batch as well... I know how hard it is to wait and how our patience is tried... but really... it is just a little more..... A week or so ago I gave this to Sense... and the next day they were approved... maybe it will work for you as well??

I am not sure what you mean here . . . could you please explain? My file date is around the time of the 2 that did not get an update or email? What does that mean?

I am pretty sure that there were two people that did not get an update or an email with a NOA 1 date of 3/12 (and then Strega which was a NOA 1 of late march) so perhaps your file was entered and worked on around the same time... so it is plausible that you are also already approved and don't know it.

I'm Episcopalian too!!! I am sure he will be here with you at Christmas! We are supposed to get married at Thanksgiving.....I'm not feeling it right now though....guess we better start praying for a miracle with the Congolese embassy people!

I know it's not very romantic but one of my reasons for wanting to get married on January 1st is so that I don't have have to file taxes with him. I am thinking it will be very complicated to file taxes with his income being out of country in 2009, and could delay my return. Also I am a single mom (head of household), so I think I get more of a refund as "head of household" than as married. . .

Well that makes me smile to think I could be approved and not even know it. I doubt it . . . but it makes me smile!

I called NVC on the off chance that they had my petition.

They don't.

Oh well! Guess I'll just keep refreshing that CRIS page at USCIS!
