Yes Trisha, my fiance and I filed August 14, and still nothing, my case hasn't been touched since Sept. 5 with the alien no. change and that's it...wonder why it's taking so long

Yeah i know how you feel as you can see on my timeline below!

I don't understand it either,..... Here are people on this website who were getting approved between 12 and 30 days(!!!)

Ô.o I don't know how all this can be possible but I'm that depressed and stressed already that my hair is falling out way to much as just 100 hair a day lol! :-/

And than you get just to hear "you are in normal processing time, stay calm" lmao LOL!

Yeah good & easy to say when you're already approved and one step further after already 12 or 20 or what ever how many days waiting!!

They also have maybe other private situation's, they work or whatever have things to do, that time is passing by faster! But what is with the people who really sit at home all day and have no job or even an own car!? Time isn't passing! :-C ?

Well Jadey I'm with you and starting to get things in order. That way when the embassy wants papers we are ready to go. We have also stared at the NOA1 too many times!

I understand how you feel, we were going nuts waiting for NOA2 with so many others hearing sooner than us. We just got NOA2 from TSC 90 days after NOA1, so maybe that's more typical...?

hahaha- it's great that you can maintain your sense of humor through this :) I know it's hard having to listen to those of us who've already gotten our NOA2s that you need to be patient. I, personally, didn't consider what it's like if I didn't have my job to help me past the time. I'd probably be way more anxious than you...

I hear that losing 100 strands of hair a day is actually normally :) I lose a lot, so I guess I'm normal in the hair losing department, but am one of those abnormal people who received a fast approval. But we are all at the mercy of government employees, so try not to worry about things you can't control and instead just pour yourself a glass of wine and wait. Good luck!!! Hope that you'll get your NOA2 real soon :)

Hi fellow August filer!

So my fiance' just moved to a new company last month. He already requested a certificate of employment from them and it states the hourly rate he's receiving and his job title. On the affidavit of support, is it okay to mention the hourly rate X 8hrs/ week on the annual income part? My fiance's handler said he can't give him the annual income since he just started last month. He's receiving above the poverty guideline and I already have his latest ITR, 1040, and W2. But we need to fill out a new affidavit of support since he changed companies 2 weeks after we file the petition.

Any advice please. Thanks:)

What is a HAV#? Is it the same as the case number assigned by the NVC?

Yes it is. HAV stands for the US embassy in the city of the country. Like mine, it is in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So, my case number will be KLL#
