WE GOT IT, NOA2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance: Approved October 13, 2006!

It arrived today via snail mail... no emails.... no status change other than touches....

In less than two hours I will be in court to finish a custody trial which has gone on over two years.... I told J two days ago I had a feeling both would be resolved the same day... today! :dance:

She has been the biggest reason I have survived the trials and tribulations my x has put me through, I am feeling so fortunate. I will follow up this post with an update on the custody decision later today.

To all who have been so helpful and supportive, THANK YOU! To all still waiting, good luck, your time is coming too! This is such an amazingly emotional moment for me... WOW!!!

J I love you so very much! (L) Mahal na mahal kita! (F)

I went through the same or simmilar thing to you with custody, I have never met anyone who had to go through a simmilar thing.

My ex wouldn't sign the petition to let my daughter move with me to the US so I could get my K1 visa, yet he didnt' visit her or anything. 10 thousand dollars and 2 years later, i'm waiting to find out if i've been approved. I did have my interview but because of the long wait, all my medical certificates, police certificates etc were expires, so I was sent home to do it all agian. I hope now to be approved. Good luck with yours.
