What are you insinuating about the December K1 Filers at CSC? That they're doing ours and stopped working on Dec I-130s? If so, I would appreciate you not use the Dec K1's as an excuse for your wait

Its not like the USCIS sets out to discriminate against certain types of applications. As we've read in countless other postings, they play catch up with all of us at some point. They are not stupid e

Hi all,

Just came back from Nigeria, was blessed with the opportunity to visit with my husband for 16 full days. We had the chance to just bond with one another. We feel so close to each other more then ever before. Unfortunately on my way back home I became very ill. It was thought to be Malaria but now the doctors are say it could be Dungue Fever. Whatever it is it had me down for a while. My studies has suffered in the meantime but I am trusting God to bring things together. We are so excited, time is coming for those NOA2's. We are so hopeful that we will get ours soon. We are now just crossing our t's and dotting our i's just to make sure we have everything in order. I am praying for each and every one of you that your NOA2's will be received in Godspeed. Keep your faith and hope in God and it will all come together soon. Grace and peace to you all...

I hope you get better soon. Trips to Africa are serious business, I gather. But at least you had a wonderful time with your husband and that's the most important thing.

Good luck to us all. I also pray for our quick NOA2s.

Yeah, I know where you're coming from... I've been to South Africa and didn't get malaria prophylaxis beforehand... And I got a real bad fever and chills a week or so after the trip. A doctor checked me, because he said these might be malaria symptoms, but thank god it was "only" a serious flu...

Keep the moments with your husband in your heart and mind and they will keep you warm whenever you feel lonely...

Actually, I'm kind of glad I could make this long distance experience. It shows that if a relationship can survive something like this, then every other problem or bump in the road should be a joke. And it also made me more patient, since I've probably been the most impatient person on the planet before...
