Hi all, congrats to my fellow refugees who have received their NOA2.

For the sake of our friends who are still waiting for approvals, please consider asking your NVC-related questions in the thread titled "CSC to TSC to NVC: the Saga continues" thread.

As you know, prior to approval it can be extremely frustrating to see other people getting advanced to the next level and you're still stuck in the black hole. Repeatedly asking non-TSC-CSC questions here, specifically regarding the NVC, AOS, etc., in my opinion is in bad form, and inconsiderate towards our friends who are still waiting.

Please do think about this and take your questions to the "CSC to TSC to NVC: the Saga continues" thread.

To those of you still waiting, we're all rooting for you, keep the Faith!! :thumbs:

Thank you so much asking people to do that! It is very frustrating to wait specially at 7 mounths and don't know what is going to happen.Thank you again.

Put it on your fridge! :lol:

I just got my IIN and Beneficiary ID #...and i'm going to be totally honest. I feel so lost right now. I've read up on the NVC process, but I just feel so out of it. I'm overwhelmed with things and my brain is about to explode.

So now I just wait until I get the AOS bill invoice?
