The visa process was so stressful for us, and has at times made our relationship feel as if it were strained due to work and other pressures. To see so many people being approved makes me wonder if it could be us quicker than I imagined. I almost can't imagine finally getting our NOA 2, because its caused so many hard time in our relationship that it almost felt like something that would never end and be a happy reality for us. I offer sincere congratulations to everyone, and am keeping up the faith that somehow it could soon be us. I haven't had good things happen to me recently, so to get the NOA 2 almost feels impossible. I want it though, and I will try to pray even though my faith seems lower than it's been in awhile due to stress and strain. I am THRILLED for everyone! congratulations smile.png some of you I was following in timelines, and woke up today seeing timeline changes and then saw the amazing Igor's list updates. Have an amazing day to everyone that got their NOA 2, and to the rest of us lets hang in there! I need all the support I can get.

I hope we get our NOA 2 this week, or even today and that the others waiting here do as well. *crosses fingers*

I know this process can be so straining on a relationship! Remember though that you can get through this and God doesnt give us anything that we cant deal with ;)

there are 17 petitions before and after us who don't have the noa 2 yet.we are in the middle..

if csc will continue to be like this, then we would really get the noa2 this month..

I hope everyone will get their NOA2 in the next few days... knowing that the others got their noa2 already, which means that the adjucators work load were lessened already..so more time to process the others petition.:D

Layla, I know how you feel. It felt like NOA2 would never come or at least I could not grasp how and when and what it would be like.

Honestly, that NOA2 came right in time for us because the past few weeks have been extremely hard and emotionally exhausting. I felt that something would have to happen soon, he would either have to fly out here or that approval would have to come...or else I would go crazy and become seriously depressed, .....and here it is, completely unexpected!

Stay strong, just a little longer, it will come! heart.gif

I'm started to feel really hopeless looking how behind VSC are and getting farther behind all the time, while CSC filers are on January and are pretty much done with 2012. There really shouldn't be this much imbalance between two service centers for the same government agency.
