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

How's everyone holding up? I was sick earlier this week and am still trying to get back up to speed. So sorry to see people still waiting. Depressingly, guess what comes after NOA2? MORE WAITING. And if someone complains about post-NOA2 waiting when you're still awaiting NOA2, you think to yourself (I know *I* did!), "Oh, that won't be so bad! Because at least at that point, things are HAPPENING! So I won't mind *that* kind of waiting: just THIS kind." But after NOA2, there's plenty more uncertainty and time spent in limbo with both of you getting progressively more anxious and feeling as though nothing will ever move forward again at all and there are still a gazillion steps to go before you are together or can even see each other. And all of this comes when you are too tired to handle any of it with even a fraction of the grace and patience you had buckets of lying around back in February. Chins up, everyone! We will make it! :thumbs:

Hi Joy, sorry your were under the weather but glad to have you back. I sure am glad to have your graph to look at 4-5 times a day. Tanya asks me every afternoon on Skype what happened last night on Joy's graph. So I sent her the link. She speaks good English but does not read it very well but she is an IRS Inspector for her country and understands graphs LOL We pasted the 6 month mark on Monday and I called on Tuesday. I was told that they were working on the 6th of Feb and I could not file a service request until they were working on 28 Feb. But as I said your graph is a small light at the end of a very looooooong tunnel. Thanks again for your work. Ron
