I think I have come to the end of my rope... I do not have the patience in me anymore to wait any longer over this long. I am very tired and exhausted over this process.

You've only been at this for 5 months. You're already married so I don't see how you can be at the end of your rope. What are you going to do just quit?

What was your expectation when you first filed? Didn't you know it takes at least 6 months for K1's and even longer for CR-1's ?

Just hang in there. This too shall pass...

I just received 2 e-mails from NVC one is the choice of agent and the other is telling me to pay the $88 AOS fee, but I didn't receive no e-mail from USCIS saying that the case was approved. I am so excited because I didn't expect to get an approval until April or March the earliest. If NVC set me those e-mails that means I was approved right? silly question I know. Aaaaaaah! I'm so happy :dance::dance::dance:

Based on other VJers timelines who list Haiti as their country it looks like their average processing time between NOA1 and NOA2 is a few weeks. I'm guessing that USCIS automatically expedites requests when the beneficiary is residing in Haiti due to humanitarian reasons caused by the earthquake 2 years ago.

Sure, it is a long and arduous process. You are not alone, there are a lot of us doing the same thing, sometimes having similar feelings. This whole process is a marathon, not a sprint. Hang in there! The end result is worth all of the effort.

Good luck,

YMMV.

Completed: K1/K2 (271 days) - AOS/EAD/AP (134 days) - ROC (279 days)
