Dude, you don't need to keep posting back-to-back like that. This isn't an instant messaging program, it's a messageboard forum. If you need to post more within a few minutes, use the edit function un

I would, but I don't know who I would pray to. The only religions or deities I recognize is Rugby, and Santa Clause. I don't think either of those accept prayer. how about I wish you luck instead

oh right ok, that makes sense then. next question, do you have 'decision' and 'post decision' activity tab/circle? hmmm. well, at this stage, I wouldn't be too concerned, CSC are all over the place with their approvals, they are mostly approving March, April and May filers, a trickle of remaining Febs and the beginnings of June. So its not going in a particular order. When they update your case, I imagine you will see the 'decision' tab/circle.

hey.. I thought you said I would be next?!! :P hehe just kidding.

yep.. my 2 weeks till Hawaii seems like ages to wait and I'm clearly going a little nuts, I'm up and down like a yoyo.

I'll be in Hawaii in 2 weeks with my man too!! What island?

Congrats to all who were approved from May.

I really think I need to quit my current job. It's very stressful especially with this long distance and other responsibilities in my life. I am very wary of doing it as I know how expensive the next year will be. Mental health or wealth, that is the question...

OMG OMG OMG! I just got APPROVED!!! :dance:

I'm shaking, I'm crying!!!! Cannot believe it just happened!

Yes, CSC is in the mid-point of May, so they will begin processing the rest of May quickly and start processing June. :dance::thumbs:

VSC are working on February at the moment, they appear to be picking up the pace, though perhaps a slow Friday for them. things will get faster there, you'll see. when I first sent ours, CSC was running way behind VSC, they really turned it around in the last 6 weeks or so, there are ebbs and flows between both service centres, and VSC simply cannot last at this pace for much longer. I think it makes it worse that CSC are approving at around 3 months, so even the expected 5 months makes it seem like torture. (F)

Today is the hundredth day since we received our NOA1.

It sucks to think that whilst people are getting approved from CSC with only a third of that number of days, we're probably only half way through.

Oofah.
