I'm certainly happy for those who got their NOA2s the past couple days. I'm glad you're on the fast track now and that you will be together with your loved one very soon.

Behind my smile I look at my situation and can only wonder why I feel so left out and that my petition has not been touched since the 19th. So I called earlier and finally got through to an actual person only to be that much more frustrated than I already am. They said that because "they received my IMBRA RFE on Jul 18th, that the new processing date would start on that date". Confused as always, what in the world does that mean?!?! If I filed in March and they received my RFE in July, does that mean I have to wait another freakin four months from July just to hear something? Has anyone else heard something similar to this? I've been watching everyone here especially those with a similar timeline and fiancee's location as mine and I am happy, I truly am happy that they got approved. I know I should be patient still and that my time will come...I guess after talking to whoever was on the other end of the line, I can see now the true frustration that comes out of USCIS.

Anyway...off my soap box now....I just wanted to blow a little steam so I thought I'd write it here since I know we're all in the same situation.

Given my timeline below, I'm just wondering why nothing's been going on with mine...not even a tap (as opposed to touch). *sigh*

Anyway, congrats again to all who have received their NOA2s. I wish you the best of everything of things to come! (F)

I just want to let you know that there is hope out there. I hadn't been touched since July 6, which was an email that they had received my RFE on July 5. I wasn't touched again until July 27, and then nothing until I was approved this morning! I know it may not make you feel that much better, but I wasn't touched for three weeks after they received the RFE. That means, hopefully it's coming soon! :)

Thanks, I sure hope so. It's just that whatever that lady told me when I called her didn't make me feel any better about what was going on. I guess I'll just have to stick to our usual routine online. Thanks again Amelynn!

We are almost in same boat as you, except we havent been touched since 6 Jul right after they got our RFE back. The word that is out is that the RFE return date would be used to process all petitions. It really sucks for everyone from march as the way they did the RFEs was hosed. People from Apr, May and Jun should not have gotten their RFEs until all those in Mar had received theirs. I dont know how much of a delay that is going to cause you or me. All we can do is hang in there and hope for the best.

Believe me both myself and fiancee are going crazy. We have tried to be supportive of those getting theirs, but is getting harder and harder to be happy for those who have only had to wait for little over 30 days when we have been in que for 139 days today.
