Hey, I definitely know how you feel. I'm a June filer at CSC and this last week I have been checking my status like crazy. All I want is for my fiancé to be here. :-( It is hard to be optimistic because the VJ stats for CSC show that only about 20% of the June filers have received NOA2s. Yours should be coming soon, it seems like VSC is moving faster than CSC, they show that over 50% of June filers have received NOA2s. The best of luck to you. :thumbs:

Surprisingly the USA doesnt seem to see fiancee and spousal applicants that way. If there were lots of fraud indicators how come denials for these visa types are rare and applicants are given chances to submit documents in order to meet the requirements.

Best of luck and im sure good news for you can happen anytime just like everyone here:))

Thats great, really shows that every case is indeed different! Again just to know that they are working on June Filers makes me feel better. From that all i can gather is that my case is diff and not that im forgotten :)

Great that you'd be able to go that interview. I wanted to do that but because it was going onto 2 years since i last say my baby I went home for 2 weeks and im afraid I'll leave him to be his radiant self and show that "person at the little window" that our relationship is nothing but real! I really hope I can get him for Christmas! keep your fingers crossed for me.

Best of luck to youuuuu!!!

I'm glad they dont! its horrid that real couples have to be punished at times because others take advantage of the system! I'm just injecting what I've been reading from VJers and what someone said to me after i was apparently "too" optimistic for them....

BUT Happy for yuh !

My received date is May 12, 2011 and I am still waiting for NOA2. I called to put in a service request for VSC and the USCIS call center told me they are behind schedule, running at more like 7 months than 5. She pointed me to the USCIS website, which I now see has been changed over the past few days. Instead of now saying "5 months" it says they are processing applications from "March 15, 2011." So, I am losing hope on getting my NOA2 any time soon.

NOA1: May 16, 2011

NOA2: November 16, 2011

Interview: February 1, 2012 - APPROVED

Visa in Hand: February 9, 2012
