So I guess this is my official introduction.

Today we finally began our visa journey. I sent the documents after much deliberation and mulling over the documents. It didn't matter how many times I looked at the documents I continued to be a little worried that I didn't have everything correct.. Ahh.. So anyway, The only thing I could do was just send them and hope that nothing returns.. I've read this forum over the past few months and it has helped to answer a lot of questions.

We are just happy to finally start this process. So, I'll be keeping my timeline updated and join the ranks of all the other journeyers that are waiting on their NOAs...

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words.. It definately helps.. And even better when you have a community of supporters that can sympathize with you..

Yes... it makes a big difference, even just cruising the forums helps you feel more connected and makes the time go a little easier. Best of luck with your petition !!

Mar 2011 - After 5mths denied for lost docs - Attempts to follow up failed. Mar 18 2012 - I-129F sent - No sign of NOA1 but they have banked the check...Jul 24 - Update - USCIS has located our file
Infopass Apt - they sorted through everything - our 2011 and 2012 file keep getting mixed up - getting us a Case# (still waiting) Dec- Infopass Appt- expecting to get a case # in about a week ..Still no Case number
Mar 2013 Infopass - advised file was in a box somewhere,and it would be quicker for us to refile. Life gets in the way... New petition submitted July 2014 .
