Hi everyone!

This is my first post on VJ. Nice to see many of you receiving your NOA2's... Good news!

My question is this: How many of you August filers are still waiting for approval from VSC? I'm seeing more and more people from September being approved each and every day, and this is quite frustrating. I don't mind waiting like everyone else, but if I have to wait, everyone should have to wait. I understand that some people will get approved before others, but it's getting a little rediculous seeing the floodgates open for September files. Again, I'm speaking about VSC specifically.

Here's to a happy and joyous 2012!

We are still waiting

I wish my fiance would return packet 3 already! He's had it for a while now :bonk:

also, I suggest to everyone to start gathering stuff for the I-134 ahead of time. I'm an idiot and procrastinated- thought it'd be super easy... and then I find out I don't have copies of my tax returns and my employer refuses to write a letter. :ranting:

I already filled out the form, just received the letter from my employer (just need to get it notarized, and get my taxes done next month.

Well...after 161 days of waiting, just got a text alerting me that we have received a lovely RFE. I have checked and re-checked my application several times and I can not for the life of me even begin to imagine what exactly it is that's missing. But oh well, we shall see in a week or so when it arrives. More waiting, more agonizing, the fun just never ends.

I was so excited when I got the text and so hopeful, should have known better. :(
