April/May? Seriously, what the hell do you know? You sound like a complete a@@hole for posting here. With all due respect, I'm tired of people who got their NOA2 in 86 days but did not file until 2

If my sister was working at DHS, I wouldn't wait 6-months then send an email to somebody at USCIS in DC. That's just me though. I'm not buying any of this tomfoolery.

CONGRATS to all who were approved. Let's just hope all the emails and phone calls are finally working. I'm going to call right now and request that "military expedite", although I'm sure it means NOTHING to them. Stay positive.

And also, you got your approval in less than 100 days while others have been waiting twice that long, so you really shouldn't be bitching about it. Just my two cents.

That hurt. First i wasn't bitching just letting everyone know just because your approved doesnt mean you will get to NVC any faster. I am sorry for you and all those who have waited so long and if you think that in 15 days your status will change then your just fooling yourself, because as you have seen there ar many problems at TSC. My two year old daughter was just released from a hospital in the philippines from water infested with amobea my bigesst fear is she will die over there from either the food or the water. those of you who have been to the philippines small towns know what i mean. This Vj has made you very bitter. I actually applied at the very beginning of august and to all those still waiting from what i have seen in the past few weeks i believe TSC is finally getting the hang of approving I 130s now if the can just get the hang of forward the approved cases to NVC. Jenny I pray that you don't have to wait as long as many of us to have your case forwarded to NVC. JUST MY TWO CENTS WORTH

I'm guessing my case is lost or assigned to somebody on vacation. I was told on January 14th it was "assigned to an officer". This time I'm emailing them, I want to know if somebody has actually "seen" my case. I fear it could by now be lost for months before they realize it.

Yes, I just sent another one.

I'm laffin cos we just got the same Officer Garza email that you did, and we were approved yesterday. I guess Officer Garza doesn't know that until she checks the files.

I'd say we're in for a large batch of approvals very soon!!
