Thank you guys so much...your support is what is literally keeping me going..someone said my email could still be a stock answer for being past five months they have to come up with something and I could still get approved anytime..I hope so..Im trying to keep faith but is so hard ...

You know you should watch out your tone, i am not mean but you sound extremely rude. We all are well aware that it take approx 5 months and maybe more than that but we all are here to support each oth

There seem to be a lot of people here who see the view the more recent filers who have gotten approved before the 5 month timeframe as the "enemy". I'm sure there isn't a single Sept/Oct filer that is

Just got my NOA-2 Hardcopy today! Its nice to actually have it in hand, it makes it feel a bit more solid and real. Still praying for everyone who hasn't gotten their approval yet! Thanks for everyone's support through the USCIS process, it was definitely the most impatient 144 days of my life, and I'm quite sure I would have lost my mind had I not had VisaJourney here to help me through all that, not to mention all the help figuring out what forms to send then and now!
