Congratulations to everyone! I can't wait until everyone has their NOA2 :) The rest of the journey is much faster, especially if you prepare ahead or as soon as you get the NOA2. We're still waiting on the police cert because my fiance had to redo his signature on the forms so that it exactly matches his passport signature. Hopefully we'll have it early next week, or we'll have to reschedule the medical.

It's okay Neetz... I have forgotten a few myself, there seem to be so many of us... I guess that's why we have the biggest thread in the history of VJ? ahahaha :lol:

I know there are quite a few early Feb filers also following our thread... would be interested in knowing how many of us Jan filers are still waiting for our NOA2's... I feel ours is very very close... keeping fingers crossed it is today or next week at the latest... :yes:

Good luck with the rest of your journey Neetz... and everyone else here! :D

I have sent a list of all Feb petitions (from throughout the month) I have found to a few Feb filers so it would be great if they were updating you guys... I wish I had more time to check the updates for each month but just going through January was a heck of a work and time consuming :) I do believe VSC is picking up (by looking at the numbers) so it shouldn't be long for you now

Seriously crying right now, first I read about Sabi, then Paul, then vosnmars!!!!

I knew it was so close for u all guys!!!!

And seems so surreal for me now, I just got an email from my congressman today that the expedite request didn't go through.... Can't help feeling depressed....

Stay strong my friend. Me and Paul got a reply from out representatives that our cases cannot be expedited and then the very next day ( actually 3 days after the date in the letter) we got approved. Matter of days for you, you'll see!

It seemed surreal for me, even an hour before i found out :) stay strong, any day now!

Thanks for your support!

Thank you Dare! It will happen for you soon!

You know I was able to put in a request for expedite, but I personally don't feel like it did anything for me. The way the approvals have been going, and getting notice at the same time as Sabi and Paul, it played out in the order it was always going to. That's just my personal opinion for my situation. I wouldn't do anything different and I would try everything I could because it helped me mentally to keep at it, so just hang in there. The only things that helped me was staying positive for my fiance, this thread and focusing on one day at a time.

Also, there are so many positive messages, I can't seem to keep up with them so thank you to everybody! Let's keep it up for those waiting with RFEs and on their Embassies.

I don't do it every day, but I usually run the numbers at least 1-2 times per week and add an update to the Feb thread :) I've also passed my numbers along to anyone who wants to run them for themselves!

January 30:

1 x approval (RFE 07/10, reply 07/23, approval 08/02)
