Every morning I wake up I pray that it's been approved and so far I wake up disappointed but never less will I give up hope that soon I will get that noa2 I'm sure ALL of you know the struggle it is to be far from the one you love the stress the pain the unecesary fights the agony of the wait but this is all worth it at the end of the day when I dream of having him here by my side :) so to never giving up hope and to all of us receiving a noa2 :)

For us (UK embassy) im guesstimating around 3 months from NOA2 to visa in hand

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/monthly_filers.php?form=1&visa=1&scenter=1&option=2&sortby=2

Save this link to your favourites. Its where people update their NOA2 they receive.

I hope not! Just to cut down any time (if any), my fiance has already requested his police report, replaced his water damaged passport for a new one and already received it, and I'm getting my documents in order over here to send them over for his interview. We're trying to be prepared to get everything done quickly once that day comes!

I have a feeling we might all get our noa2 may.

I would be extremely happy if that were the case ... but that would fall into the 4 month range. I'm guessing June.

Thought I would subscribe to this thread to see how other January 2013 filers are doing. I really don't know what to make of the recent Nov/Dec cases being completed while Aug-Oct waits and waits. I hope that for our sakes that January is next but I feel bad for those waiting much longer than us. This whole thing puts our lives on hold too as we'd originally planned on her coming to the US in July or August at the latest so her son could start the school year in September. Now I am really not sure what to expect, will it be September or October or even, god forbid, December or later? I'll see her again in a couple of weeks and I am not sure what I will say about the possible delay as I really have no idea what's going on, sigh...

It seems that California has sped up a lot recently, while Vermont is now lagging behind....

I love how everyone thinks CSC is now ahead of VSC. They're not. They're just skipping 3.5 months worth of applications that they should have processed long before Nov and Dec!!! It's just appalling!

Truee because the last few applications were from december which would put those people at only 4 months to NOA2..
