Good luck indeed!

It's getting frustrating! I try to keep in mind that it could take up to 5months based on USCIS website. But it was really fast the past few months.. people getting approved within 60days!

Last week, there were only 2 approvals. Maybe people not just updating??

2 weeks ago, 10 got approved for the week.

Some people don't update but also the USCIS is processing H1b visas so it has slowed the rest of us down. At least the time lines are looking steady. Do you have everything ready for NVC triaxxx?

Do we need a copy of the birth certificate or original?

Both. See http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3190.html review all 7 pages. Contains definition of 'certified copy' as well.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Hi TeyaValentina

Yes, I finally got with the program and joined the group! I debated joining the February group, but I guess all that matters is when your NOA1 date is.

Hopefully we start getting some approvals in the next month!

FLPilot, we have identical dates.

Correct TomD. The March Group. The weird thing is that we are here in the inital stage but some of us will get split up or sent in with other members during the NVC stage due to when we are able to get all of our papers together. It seems like the NVC groups are more united than USCIS groups and then the Interview groups are the most united. I hope you have fun kayaking Tom.

I agree with you about the unity between groups. But i think this group will keep in touch even after the NVC stage, and interview stage. We should keep each other informed as to what happens.

Teya, I initially believed the delay was due to h1bs. However, looking at historical trends and even the line graph alone in the processing times page show otherwise, last year around June was when it started slowing down. Anyway, no use getting stressed over this. I just hope USCIS gets it goin again.

And to answer your question, yes, I'm ready to move on to the next step! :)

The May interview group has a FB page apparently and plan to meet up in Vegas. That seems like dedication to me :P. I find it funny that there are adds on VJ for "plenty of fish in the sea". Isn't the main point that you have someone already that you are bringing here? I know there are other visas types on here as well...but I still find it funny. I wonder if anyone has left their spouse b/c they fell for someone on VJ.
