I mailed everything off yesterday to Vermont...and the waiting game begins. Funny thing is, rather than being excited, I was rather down today. Perhaps it is the roller-coaster effect.

CONGRATULATIONS, Patty&Paul. Looks like VSC is actually on a good roll FINALLY!!!! There should be many more NOA2's coming now.

I called NVC this evening and was told our case was received there on 1-4-11 and was sent on the the US Embassy in Manila on 1-6-11. We are very HAPPY!!! At least this part of our journey is going fast. However, I read that the Embassy in Manila has now gotten very slow in printing the actual visas after the interview and approval. Just my luck!!! But maybe they will get that delay solved before time for our visa to be printed.

I-129F mailed to VSC June 18,2010.

I-129F delivered to VSC June 21,2010.

Waiting, waiting for NOA1.

July 12, 2010 VSC states petition was rejected (no reason given) and was being returned however they did give me the case #.

Waiting, waiting, did not get returned petition instead got hard copy of NOA1 in mail on July 26, 2010 with

different case # (very strange!!!) I have not seen anything like this on VJ.

NOA1 dated July 20, 2010 (way too long) 29 days since delivered.

Check cleared July 22, 2010.

Received NOA1 hard copy July 26, 2010.

"Touch" July 27, 2010.

"Touch" Oct. 3, 2010 Yeah!!!!, at least something.

YEEPEE!!!! Finally NOA2. Dec 30,2010 got cell text at 4:04pm, and email notice at 6:00pm that our petition has been approved.

Now for the rest of the process, should not be so long now!!!!!!

This long wait has been very stressful for both of us, now we can make more plans for the rest of our lives together.

NVC got our case on Jan 4, 2011 and was sent to the Embassy on Jan 6, 2011. Thank you Lord!!!

We now have our MNL case number!!!!

But maybe they will get that delay solved before time for our visa to be printed.

You got that right! I was approved December 20 and I only got my visa today! But its okay, I think the delay was caused by the holidays. It should be back to normal by now :) Goodluck with the medical and interview!

My Journey:

We met through a study-abroad program in Shanghai, China in August of 2009

We got engaged March of 2010

I received my K1 VISA in 6 months (June-December 2010)

We were married 04/02/2011
I received my conditional 2-year greencard (AOS) in 2.5 months with no interview (April-June 2011)

Our son was born 02/03/2013

I received my masters degree in Speech-Language Pathology 04/17/2013

I received my 10-year greencard (ROC) in 3 months with no interview (March-June 2013)

My husband returned from deployment 06/20/2013

My naturalization journey took 4 months (April-August 2014)

I became a US citizen on 08/01/2014

Received passport in 3 weeks (regular processing)

Thank you, VJ! smile.png

Okay so i hit the 5 month mark on Jan 2, 2011 and all i have is a collective touch from October 3rd. I think just like everyone else im gona call them on monday and they are probably gona give me the same story that everyone else has been getting. Any idea how i can get in touch with a senator (like how everyone else is doing) i live in florida. Any help on how i could go about contacting the senator would be highly appreciated, i am sick and tired of waiting...arghhhhhhhh :(

Ps: Which number do i call the USCIS to check on my case status ?
