Tranquilo/a... relax.. The more you focus on not "having it" the more "not having it" you get...

Instead think about and imagine how awesome it will be to read the words "Approval Notice - Valid from XX-XX-XXXX until XX-XX-XXXX.

Imagina te comprando tu pasaje y el pasaje de tu marido/a... Just focus on the positive events that are coming and it will arrive. Also get busy doing something OTHER than worrying about it..

Worrying about the future robs you of the beauty of today...

On the USCIS Website, mine still shows as pending but I received the Approved copy IN MY HAND on the 22nd and we were actually APPROVED on July 18th.. It's coming...

~ Jan ??,2013 ~ Service Center ~ Vermont I-129F Packet sent

NOTE: Actual sent date unknown due to lawyer negligence - I delivered ALLForms and PAID Lawyer on Nov 7, 2012 - Lawyer kept saying he sent the packet and USCIS must have lost it. When in reality he failed to send the package and only a new copy to USCIS after I made a legal written demand giving him 10 days to perform or return ALL monies paid to him, due to "non-performance".

(IMO it's better to save your money for visits to or from your Fiancé and just fill it out yourself using the K-1 Guide on VJ and Senior Members... They Rock!!!)

I believe it was an RFE not an approval, but anyways this happens all the time. You can't let that get to you. Just be happy they did get approved if they did because that means you are coming up soon. Girl, many people pass you by with and Noa2 and then you catch up and your interview is first or after but its always in the same time frame. Remember different officers have their own load of cases so they don't work at the same time. The Dominican couple today had the luck of all luck approved in 5 days and interview today? So don't let it get to you. I would be happy because I know my application approval is coming soon.
