:dance: Congratulations!

When we were waiting to get through the process it always made me feel better to hear good news from other filers. At least I knew things were moving and that eventually they would get to us.

Good luck at your interview!

Hi Guys! Great news: this morning at 2am I received a text from USCIS letting me know there was an update. I checked and our application has been approved. I am so happy, especially given that it took them 3 months and my fiance and I agonized and checked the website every single day.

My NOA1 was May 10 and NOA2 was July 31.

Can't wait to receive the letter and send in whatever else needed in order to be together soon.

Good luck to all of you guys waiting- they are moving...slowly, but it will happen. Once you are approved you will see all the painful waiting will immediately go away and be forgotten. Now, next step. I hope these steps take no more than 2 months!
