Thanks. I thought so! The whole idea of having to put in a "service request" is absurd, anyway. I "requested" your services when I filed the damn application. And you agreed to provide that service w

I just ran about 150 receipt numbers and it is at least conforting to see so many "initial review" status around our number. At least we are not the only one left behind. About 59% of the batch are approved. Just need to keep waiting.

Are you at Vermont or California?

Hey guys,

I'm filling out my RFE and it appears that they assigned me an alien registration number (A#).

I think I may have read somewhere that they assign you an A# if you're approved. But like I said I still don't have my NOA2. Any of you out there in the same situation as me?

Last year when we received an RFE it also had an alien number and I was told that that would have been my alien number later in the process IF we had been approved. We were denied so it was dead in the water.

Hi Maria

Our NOA is February 9th, still waiting for NOA2. It now looks like they're processing February, certainly the last few for VSC have been early February ones.

I hate that desperate feeling, I was really hoping to be joining my fiancee by end of August or first week in September. It's now looking like the end of September by the time the interview would be done.

They will get to it, have faith :)

For me in the UK I think the average was 66 days from NOA2 to the interview. The US embassy for you might be quicker than the UK to process it and set the interview date.

Although it's easy to think about how many months we've been waiting, I kinda found peace lately by thinking that it won't take more than a month now to get our NOA2.

I know that I'll be with my Kim in October/November and that all waiting will be over. I really like that prospect: in 3 months from now, we'll be together for e ver!!

Just finished the wedding registry the other day and my fiancee is gonna go view some houses this Friday. Also we've been lucky to have a very flexible venue that was willing to move our wedding to several other dates with a 30 days notice. Not getting married on October 6th is a bummer but the knowledge that we're way over half of the waiting time is really comforting. Also to think about all the blessings we've received from God last year... I think this goes for all of you. How big was the chance you met your soulmate? I mean, it's astronomically small!!!

My fiancee came to the Netherlands to work in a Christian Youth Hostel where my brother used to be one of the managers. Every now and then I would visit him there, because of the nice atmosphere in that hostel. When Kim and I met, there were no big sparks but we started to hang out on a friendly basis. I was planning a trip to the States when she said: 'If you're in the States anyway, you should come visit me and I'll show you Virginia'. Little did she know that I took her invitation serious. A couple of days before I flew over to her I got an abbess in my throat which kinda purged my wallet and so I didn't have the money to fly over to DC but a friend of mine heard it and paid my ticket. The moment I arrived the sparks of love flew around us and we knew that we wanted to be together forever.

If I think about how different this story could go! What if she never came to work in the Netherlands? What if I never visited my brother? What if she never jokingly invited me? What if my friend didn't pay for the ticket? Not to mention that the chances two people like each other at the same time is already a slim chance. I reckon all of you have similar love stories with slim chances of success, yet you are all engaged. Yes, I do believe God has something to do with our story. Even if you don't believe in God, finding our soulmate abroad is a spectacular miracle!

I just feel this rest over me now. Like the end is neigh and all of us feb filers will come back to this forum to hear about our wedding process.

You guys are still in our daily prayers and most of all we pray for a reduction of anxiety. I feel a special connection with all of you and I'm excited to see the first wedding photo posted!!

Also, congrats for the approvals!!
