Thanks everyone for your kind words. Everyone has been a great support and I enjoy logging in everyday to read your posts.

I wasn't expecting to be one of the first Dec. filers to be approved...I just wanted someone from the SS Rumrunner to be approved. You won't believe how much pressure is lifted when you receive your NOA2. I'm really looking forward when each of you are approved. I will be celebrating right along with you!!!

This is our month and I hope & pray that all me mates are approved pronto.

Good Luck to all...We to are December K-1 Filers...Hope they start soon on December it's been 3 months now for us. NatPatBen that was very good advise for everyone Thanks alot :thumbs:

Hi, Decemeber 2009 VSC filers! I was where you are a year ago.

While waiting for NOA2, I HIGHLY recommend getting everything together for the interview, especially since VSC is currently moving way faster than it was a year ago. It took me 6.5 months for NOA2. During that time, I gathered all the paperwork and evidence for the interview. Then I filled out as much of the AOS/EAD/AP paperwork as possible. Then (since I had so much time), I found out all the details for getting a SSN & getting married in my state.

Doing all that made the wait time productive.

By the time he got here, some of the forms had been updated, but it was easier trasnsferring info from one version to another than if I had to start over. Also, I updated the forms when he got his A #, SSN, wedding date finalized, etc. That made it easy to submit the AOS paperwork a few days after getting married.

Best wishes for a smooth & quick journey for all of you.

If yours happens to take longer than planned, remember that everything happens for a reason and in His time.

Thanks for the congrats Matt!

Just wondering if you went to check your case status by putting in your case #. The reason I ask is because after I got the text I logged in and all it said was last update 3/16/10 but nothing about being approved
