Hello everyone, we were a Feb. filer too! My fiance just finished her medical appointment today and we're just waiting on her long form birth certificate to come in the mail and it's interview scheduling time for us. I never bothered registering on this site during this whole process, but I wanted to take the time today to do it and say thanks, this site turned what was a fairly intimidating sounding process into a piece of cake and I'm very appreciative for this site and its community! Good luck to everyone still in the process!

Congrats to your NOA2. We cannot schedule my fiancee's medical. There seems to be a delay in getting her passport and I believe she has to have her passport to schedule the medical. Either way she has to have passport for her interview too. We are now in a holding stage until we receive her passport. And yes this site has been great on understanding the whole process. :thumbs:

We filed in February as well. We received the NOA2 on June 23, 2011, but the NVC has yet to receive our petition from USCIS. I have called NVC and USCIS multiple times and e-mailed the approval form for NVCresearch. I wish they would hurry up as I have been reading some horror stories about petitions being lost. Will let you know what happens....

Got an email from consulate that I can picked up my visa from DHL soon. The last week has been a wreck waiting for the consulate to approve the visa/print it off. Worse then waiting for the noa2! Crazy.

ChiGlas, I am sorry to hear about that delay :( hope you hear back soon!
