All the VSC NOA1 folks waiting, i feel your pain. i believe i still have 4-6 months waiting. Luckly, i was able to go and visit my honey last week for 10 days. It was very refreshing and needed. I know that doesn't help most, but if you are able to afford the extra trip while you wait on the visa, i can tell you it was worth the few grand i spent for us to see each other. "just wanted to share".

I'm in the VSC and waiting almost 7 months for my NOA 2. Is there any end in sight to all this waiting? I am going to see my wife on Oct 30 to Nov 4th, so at least I have that to look forword to. :thumbs::dance:
