I went to check the website like I do every day, more for processing time updates than approval, since my NOA 1 was February 6th 2013. I was so shocked when I saw "Post Decision Activity" May 15th We were approved!! I know there are so many who have been waiting a long time. I wish you luck. Thanks for all the help. I did this myself with no attorney. Just followed what I found on the site. I am caught so off guard, I don't even know what to do next....just sitting here in shock.
