whoa. o.o I will honestly say that while I understand how frustrating the wait is, and how stressful on relationships it can be -- we all have our trials and tribulations and we all decided to take t

I think we should be the first group to try and not complain about the rate both centers are moving at! We all know we have to wait. It's so discouraging coming on here and half the posts are people

I feel like I've already done the bulk of my waiting. I was waiting 8 months for my divorce certificate. For a very long time I was misled as to when I'd be receiving that document. So since I have on average 9 more months to go through, (please, please, please be less!) it's not so bad. It sucks on every level this wait but I feel like true love gets tested. This is a difficult ordeal being away from your loved one. But it's all working out. Got that stupid divorce certificate and here we go...the countdown has been going for awhile so when I read posts of the waits, I think "well, I've already done that length and my character has gotten stronger because of it"! So everyone, it's not so bad. (Chocolate, wine and some good Netflix helps pass the time :P )

Hannah, I feel you. I also had to wait for my divorce certificate, had to wait for my fiance to get his certified as a true copy... it is a never ending cycle of waiting.

Cathy, not to be negative, but don't put too much stock in those early approvals out of CSC. I have heard that they will go through spurts of random approvals. But we can all hope for the best, and I wish us all a speedy approval. Who nows, maybe we will all see NOA2 in August or September rather than November or December.

I know not to get my hopes up as I think this is the new standard. My case has been updated: "On April 11, 2013, your Alien Registration Number was changed relating to your I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)." I have read a bunch of posts to see if this is good news or not. And the answers are about 80% this is standard and the other 20% say I could be getting an NOA2 soon. Please let me know if my fellow April filers received this notice.

I received that same message last night at around 9pm pst. I was on Skype with my fiancee and we got too excited. Not really sure what it means but at least we know our files are alive and it's being touched.
