Hi Everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone who had gotten the NOA2 had their USCIS account touched or updated right before they got their NOA2.

Dec 6 will be 5 months...

/amro

Well Im sure you have all the answers you were looking for by now but I got my NOA1 June 17th and although I still haven't got my NOA2 as to yet, I heard back from them getting my RFE just before my 5 months. Waiting for you NOA2 is like being in line at the grocery store, some lines are longer than others, patience is the best thing although we all know its hard

This is good! One thread where people complain about being touched and then this one where it is a happy event. I know, I know, there is a big difference between the two subjects, but I am desperate for something to keep my mind off waiting.

Patient is virtue Geode. It will come faster than you thought. Goodluck to your journey and Godbless! :thumbs:

Congrats!!! Hope we get our NOA2 soon.. We'll be 5mos on Dec 9.

Hang on there! It's on the way! Don't rely too much in USCIS website. I received the NOA2 without email notification and no changes made on my account online. Goodluck and Godbless to those who are still waiting. :star: Be patient. Keep on going!

I received a text & email saying to go to the USCIS website check my status on Saturday 11/20/10. Status on USCIS website said I129F is approved. I haven't received the NOA2 in the mail yet. I updated my status so people could see progress.

Yours will come soon. They can't let us all be alone for the holidays. I'm not sure we'll get everything done in time... but.. we will try. Good Luck! :thumbs:

Congrats Ken&TJ! Well, I got touched on 11/15 and no email notification and heard nothing then just lastnight my fiance received the hard copy of NOA2. Goodluck and Godbless to everyone! To those who are still waiting just be patient. They are working to reach their 5 month time frame now unless the case is complicated. :star:
