We got our NOA1 on June 17th. This may be a stupid question (as I am obviously new to all of this), but the NOA1 is just the notice of action saying they received the application and they will start processing it, right??? I feel dumb for not knowing all of this, but it's just crazy how many hoops you have to jump through for all of this! :(

Yes the NOA1 is the notice of receipt. The NOA2 waiting time is approx 5 months from the date fo your NOA1. Some people get thier NOA2 quickly, others go beyond the 5 months. There is no way of controlling it, no way of knowing when yours will be passed through.

Its now just a long waiting game :wacko:

bummer :( me too, although you're about a month ahead of me so I'm definitely not expecting anything for awhile yet.

p.s. I read the latest post on your blog after you posted it in another thread. I laughed so hard, well said!

Haha aw thanks! If anyone else is bored and wants to read my fiance and I's frustrations during this fun process, the blog is called A Waiting Room and is located here: http://transatlanticboogeymen.blogspot.com/

Yeah it's been just over two months for us with no updates. I realize it's not much compared to some others but it's still frustrating nevertheless. Us UK/US folks need to band together! :yes:

Hey at least you're at the VSC. You'll probably get through it a lot quicker than us.

We have pretty much the same timeline - would be good to keep an eye on each others as you never know :dance:

I hope all of us who have our NOA1 from June (mine is June 2nd) receive an approval and the NOA2 SOON!!! I wrote some things and have no idea anymore what is right and what is wrong.. I've read things on this site and another that confuse me to no end.. Know that all of you are in my prayers! My Senator contacted USCIS (California) and maybe that put my papers on the bottom of the pile - Who knows with immigration anymore! I'm anxious for all of us, but it does help (a little) to know that I'm not alone in the wait.. Everyone have a great weekend!

hi guys,

the waiting time for NOA2 seems to be very random: my fiancé and I filed on june 21st, we received the NOA1 on June 25 and our NOA2 - approval notice, on July 15th, so 3 weeks after... we were actually very very surprised to be approved that fast, as we were prepared for the 5 month waiting period!

good luck to everyone.

Oh yea, I heard about a number of people who filed in June and got their NOA2's in around a month or less. Someone mentioned it might have had something to do with the TX switch but I'm not sure. You must have been part of that lucky group! Lucky you!!
