I have hope and faith when God see it fit he will appoint my NOA2... Nothing one can do but be positive and productive while on this journey good luck to us all. Let us all keep our head up and support each other. :thumbs:

Timeline

We filed August 24th, NOA1 August 30th aaaaaannnd...

NOA2 Text / Email came last night! (64 days, omg). It's very, very surprising. I can't quite say why ours came so fast, but, would say that we do not have any expediting factors (I'm not in the military). I've heard rumors that Japan is being expedited in light of the tsunami disaster which occurred last year, although those are just rumors.

Immensely grateful and hopeful that ours arriving is a sign that everyone will be getting the great news soon.
