Everybody received their NoA1 in about 7 days or less. Chicago lockbox received my package october 20th. Today made it 7th day, iam hoping I receive the text message in the evening. I'm being so impatient. 2 days ago I called moneygram office to ensure the money was cashed by immigration and I was told it has not been cashed yet. I was a bit worried. My wife used money order and included it clipped with the papers. Is anybody used money order too?

Yes, I used a money order and it was no problem. Patience is the most difficult part of this process I'm learning!

I sent ours on October 14th. Excited to get the process started!

Hi! I just want to ask if you guys got married in the Philippines or in the US. My husband and I got married in California but we haven't reported our marriage here in the Philippines. Is it ok that I used my married name in the I-130 even if all my ID and passport are under my maiden name?

Rey11, Wow that NOA2 was so fast! Did you expedite your case or are you just one of the lucky ones that the rest of us get to be jealous towards? :lol:

Just filed normal, wasn't sure why sent to CSC which seem to be behind everyone else. I wasn't expecting anything until Feb2012. then I notice that the Japan members I'm following was getting approved in like 17 days. so it gave me some hope. I received the notice in 13 days :thumbs:

Hello October filers,

I am technically an October filer. I sent my application off on the 27th. Awaiting the NOA1. I think I will get the priority in November. Am praying for us all. Be patience and hold faith. This journey will be over before you know it.
