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

What I've heard and read, it seems to not be so horrific. Fingers crossed!

Congrats to all the new approvals. It is so exciting to see them all. I am one of the last pettitioners in our group so all of you will probably be in the NVC stage once I get my NOA2. I am excited about it but terrified that I will get it while i am in Serbia and won't be able to do anything till i get back from over there mid July :(

114 and counting...

In that case I should be expecting an approval around May 6.

But I have a feeling it'll take longer for me :( I lived in the USA for 2 years while I was a student. They have a lot of background checking in my case.

I just hope I get my NOA2 before I fly out on May 28th.

Hubby is in the fireworks launching team and he wants me to stay until July 4th. My best friends wedding is July 9th here in Warsaw so I have to be back by then. So I'll probably stay like 5 weeks.

If they let me in.
