Oh my god!!!! I was driving home and my phone chimed that I had a text. I was just going to ignore it, but I took a peek to see who it was from and it was those infamous digits that come at the top of a USCIC text.

I almost wrecked my car!!!! I got to the stop light, clicked on my mail, and there it was APPROVED!!!! I started bawling, crying.gif the car behind me was honking at me to go, oops8rh.gif I forgot how to drive for a minute!!!! I have never felt happier in my life. I called Ray from my cell, and he knew as soon as he saw me calling because we never call, we text or skype....

195 days!!!!!! Thank you all for being so supportive. I need a drink, or a hug, or something... not sure..... kicking.gifkicking.gifkicking.gif

Now all I can think about is you Texas22... Please say you got one too....

Congrats, im soo happy for you. Hope Texas22 get her's today too :dance:

From what's been said on the site, USCIS mail does not forward, but yes I have. At this point, I've done all I can from my end in hopes that I don't have to spend months chasing down my NOA2 or an RFE or fighting not to pay just to get a copy. A least I have a paper trail a mile long! star_smile.gif

Y wouldnt they want to forward the mail from the post office? i cant understand but we are here hoping we see it pop up in the mail at the new address via mail forwarding :(

i think USCIS needs to give USAIN BOLT the approved petitions so he can run them to NVC. Would definitely help with the slow delivery, maybe i would have had the Case # already :rofl:
