Many congrats!

Approval ! ! ! ! ! biggrin.pngyes.gif

NBC received my case for my husband's i130 on April 22nd of 2013, and

on October 29th of 2013 I opened my email and saw it!

Then I checked the USCIS website to make sure I wasn't going crazy and starting to see things.

When I realized this was true I had tears of happiness streaming down my face and I was at work so I couldn't post then but as soon as I got home I came to let all of you know that they must be working on April filers more, and that it seems like April filers aren't being transferred.

My case was at Lee Summit, MO and I never had a transfer.

I'm honestly in shock, I was preparing to wait a few more months from what I have been reading.

This gives me hope that all of you will get your approvals soon also!

Don't give up hope yet!

So if a MAY filer is being told they should see NOA2 around December/early Jan, April filers should be flooded with NOA2s around now. Ugh I'm kind of tired of every week something like this which gives so much hope and so much disappointment as the months roll on.

Thank you though LoveMyTico, very interesting for sure.
