129 days later, I have my NOA 2. Thank You GOD!

Adam & Yesenia

I-129 submitted on 5/26/06 (on OLD forms because the new ones weren't out!!)

NOA #1 with receipt number dated 6/12/2006

Nothing else has happened after that as far as I know... No RFE's, Nothing?

touched on 9/7/2006

Email notice on 9/11/2006 that my question would be answered.

Email notice on 9/12/2006 that the RFE is in the mail 3 months after my WAC number

Next trip to see her for a week on 9/23/06...

Went to Colombia on 9/23 returned on 10/1

I never received my RFE but my attorney sent me his copy which I filled out and overnighted on 10/3 RFE delivery confirmation on 10/4 but nothing from CSC yet...

CSC Email saying they have my RFE on 10/11/06, a full week after they got it.

Note that to this day, I've still NEVER received my copy of the RFE they said they mailed to me! I've seen lots of posts about lost RFE's and other documents from the CSC! This concerns me greatly!

NOA 2 on 10/18/2006 Woo Hoo! 129 days from NOA 1.

Yesenia arrived in the US on January 18th, 2007

We were married on 3/17/07

Filed for Green Card and Employment Authorization right away.

Green Card was issued (with EAD card) on 6/15/07

We'll be filing for AOS pretty soon.

129 days later, I have my NOA 2. Thank You GOD!

:dance::dance::dance:

Now this is something to say congrats to.. something to celebrate... because these two people have waited and waited and waited for soooo long for their approval. I'm sorry that it took so long for you to get it. I know you've both worried and been stressed out. When I see an approval for someone who's waited so long it makes me happy that they finally got their N0A2. But when I see someone from Vermont post their NOA 1 date and then they're all happy and giddy about getting their N0A2.... often as little as 2 weeks later, I'm sorry but I find no joy offering congrats to them. 2 weeks of waiting? Oh wow.. poor babies had to suffer so long. 129 days... now that's long suffering and fully due all the cheering that can be given to them. So call me a bad person for feeling this way. I don't care. I don't even know why people from Vermont post their N0A2 dates after waiting only a week or two. It's a slap in the face to those of us that are waiting at California. Sorry, just the way I feel about it.
