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.

Ok so are you saying you had their petition numbers and all other info to tell to those people so they are approved faster? Sorry but total BS! Or are you saying they came here to this thread, READ i

Good Morning one and all!

Well, TSC made a good attempt at decimating this thread last night (in a good way!), and I am hoping for more fun and excitement tonight!

The weather seems to be cold and sunny with a zero percent chance of rain/snow, so we should be OK.

Once again, CONGRATS to all those approved last night, and I am, personally hoping for an email saying our case was shipped to NVC - there was a few of those last night!

More than anything, I'd like to see very early July and late June filers approved. I know some of you lurk on the thread and say little. I admire your patience, you deserve approvals tonight! good.gif

A quick look tells me it's around 40 to 45%, maybe even up to half. I need to analyse it better.

I gave the NVC a call last night, and noticed they have changed their phone procedures. No longer the Haitian refugees. They have put the Egyptian crisis on button 1. When you press 2, it goes straight to an operator. No more 1 hour wait times, and busy signals. That is a BIG change from when I was calling them 2 or 3 times a day back in December.

Hey Sara.

No, but Texas are sending emails out to us to say our cases have been shipped to NVC. I imagine a case number will be allocated within about 3 to 5 days of shipping. We were told by TSC that they had already informed NVC of which cases were being shipped, so maybe, NVC are allocating before they even get the papers. I called last night, but nothing yet.
