Awe finally. It has been such a long road. I thought of every miserable thing that could have happened. I hope you get yours soon too Vylex! If you e-mail them, they will let you know if you are approved and you may get a notice of NVC receiving it without your NOA2 being issued yet so keep an eye on your mail. The website has not been updated to reflect our approval.

Vylex- I called and checked to see if mine was at NVC just this morning and the machine said that they did not have it on file. So keep checking your mail because obviously they are behind in updating the systems or something. *hugs*

Aww thanks everyone, we appreciate everything you guys have done for us and please know that our hopes are with you all as you travel your own journey, whether it be waiting for approval, getting everything in order for interviews or finding work on the other side of the pond etc...

Does anyone know who the USCIS approved doctors are in Melbourne? I'd like to try to book my medical asap as that seems to be the one thing that could cause delays.

I just booked with Dr Charles Okraglik at Monash for 9 am on the 16th July.

Just an FYI for anyone else, he is away from June 28 until July 13. Mid-July looks reasonable for us as it allows time for the approved petition to be forwarded to Sydney and for the forms I will need for the appointment to get out to me. I'm not sure about Dr Poppenbeck, but I know someone else posted in April that he was booked until the end of May so it's probably fair to assume he's reasonably busy at this time too.
