Finally, after 6 months, we got our NOA2. Mari and I had just finished skyping and encouraging one another on the painful wait. We said goodnight and I went to check email one last time before going to bed and THERE IT WAS. I couldn't believe my eyes. I immediately had to call her phone as she had signed off of skype. She went back to skype (so we can save money) and I was able to tell her what I have been waiting to tell her for so long now... We are approved!!!! :dance:

After celebrating and wishing for everyone else to get approved also, we both said goodnight with happier hearts for a change.

May all of you experience (very soon) the wonderful feeling of receiving the approval for the next step of our journey.

After numerous calls to USCIS, my two Texas Senators and a Congressman, the latter got an "expedite" put through (if you can call a month and a week after ONPT an expedite). Just never let up! Even though mine took way too long, there were people who were a month before me and waited longer because they just sat back and watched. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease!"
