Hi my beautiful lady has 2 kids also. Is good to know someone else here is applying for 3 people. (I think is what u did rite? ) I was a little "worry" about it, cuz most people in here are applying only for one person and didn't know if for me (us) that could have been a problem or take longer than most applications. I haven't seen my woman in 8 months =(. Airplane tickets are too expensive. Good luck to you too !!

I'm working on a Brady Bunch, I have 3 and my fiancee has 3 also. Will see them all in just under 3 weeks however it will be a short trip.

Another day of disappointment.... :(

No offense, we´re all in the same boat, but I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

Do you seriously expect to get your NOA2 now, taken into account you´re an end of January filer?

They´re working on September and October right now.

I think us January filers still have a couple of months ahead of us. And that´s only if CSC is keeping up its current pace. If not, who knows... :(

Even though its early days I think all of us have a little hope in our heart that we may be one of those "lucky" ones, especially with the seemingly sporadic approvals from CSC.

If you can do, its best to try to forget about it and set your sights on this time next month if you can.

No, i dont expect to get NOA2 at all at this point. But i would wish that at least one with NOA1 from the beginning of january would get answer so we would know that 2013 filers are not just put on hold until all 2012's are finished up....

I agree, that would be a great relief.

I hope they won´t skip several months (including ours) like they did when they started approving Dec filers. That would create another "black hole".

I am hopeful though that they won´t let such a backlog occur again right after they put so much effort into clearing the recent one.

Trying to stay positive.
