i just called uscis a couple of hours ago and i spoke to and officer he told me that they are working on october 22 now that when they have a decision in my case they will send a notice. but i know its not october because some early and late nov 2012 fillers have gotten a reply. this is frustrating knowing that others are being approved and others that filled before or after are still waiting. but on a positive note congrats to all of u that got a noa2;)

My Noa1 is November 23rd, 2012 and I just recieved my RFE notice today (May 21st)!!! Never thought I would be so excited over an Rfe, but atleast I know our case is being reviewed :) I had been losing my patience too, just like many of you. I hope, the ones of you that are still waiting for your case to be reviewed, will hear something soon. And to those of you who have recieved your Noa2, Congrats!

Hello November filers...!!

My I129F was received on October 26th, however, my case status shows Nov 6th as the NOA1 date....This saturday would be 7 months waiting :(
I am so sad and stressed out, i find myself checking the USCIS site several times a day, i contacted my congresswoman already and just today i spoke to a tier2 agent on immigration who told me they were currently processing October 1st.

I really wish im next, i mean, im sincerely happy for all of the couples who have gotten some sort of reassurance on their case receiving the NOA2, those that are getting near the final line, and those who even got lucky enough to be together at this point....but i can't help but feel depressed since i have been waiting for so long i just need to be able to smile again....On the bright side, while talking to the agent he mention my case looked good and there was no indication of any further information needed so far, so i'm really praying that would translate to zero RFE for us.

Is anybody out here on the same boat? are you still waiting for your NOA2?......some days i come across stories that would lift my spirits up and will get me through the day....whenever someone was about to loose it and all of the sudden there it is....the magic words that keeps you going!!....and other days like today i just feel hopeless.

My poor fiance is desperate and depressed as well, he has a little girl and so do i. It is very hard to think leaving any of our kids for the sake of the love and the relationship, and its even harder to forget the love of your life for your kids as well. At times i feel like quitting and just dissapear but its the positive words of encouragement on this site that keeps me going. Thank you all for sharing your stories.

I just pray for a happy outcome for me and all of you as well....you are all in my prayers!!

I'm absolutely right there with you! it's so incredibly heartbreaking :( I'm too the point where i'm anxious and scared and crying frequently..I can hardly eat or sleep. If I have to wait, it's okay..i just want to know if my petition is okay. While I'm happy that people are getting approved, a part deep down inside is angry (not at those approved!) but rather the service centers for their lack of organization. It's not fair that someone waiting since october or november is still waiting while others are getting approved after only 2 or 3 months. It's just not. It should be on a first come, first serve. This picking and choosing who to approve next is inconsistant and not fair. That's what upsets me the most. They have these guidelines and processing times but the truth is, you don't know WHEN you are getting approved because they way they have things set up now, it really is the luck of the draw. It's like the lottery. If you are the lucky petition they pick, you win! I'm completely heartbroken and actually crying as i'm typing this. You have said everything I felt as well. We have been apart for almost 3 1/2 years and we are just so sick from being apart. I have kids so moving there is not an option for me either or i'd be there now.

Our NOA date is similiar. Ours is Nov. 16th. so i'm not far behind. I couldn't even get an answer from USCIS when i called! I was told i couldn't even put in a service request because i was still within the time frame. They gave me heck for demanding to know where my petition is..All I got was "wait up to 60 days and if you don't get anything, call us again" REALLY!? That's the best that they can come up with?? I wonder how they'd feel if they were torn away from their family? How would they like to wait?

I just wrote my congressman and I pray to God that he can help us..anything at all..I'm so scared and it's the uncertainty that is killing us the most :(
