Well its just a crazy process, in my humble opinion. Way too much red tape, way too much nonsense, and its because of all that red tape and nonsense that we all have to wait 704 years just to get some

Thanks JeffinMX! I don't know how I got so lucky! I really don't. I'm super grateful for whatever stars have aligned though...because we have a 3 year old son here and my hubby is in Europe...so the sooner I can have him here, the better. I hope everyones case goes super fast! Hopefully this is an omen for us all!!!! Now, hopefully USCIS moves this into their system quickly...that's my next step. And then to get it over to Amsterdam!

Still though...I'm so excited!!!

APPROVED 2/13/2014! dancin5hr.gif Day before heart.gif day. rose.gif

Thanks, Samni! I actually ended up calling the USCIS customer service yesterday and speaking to a Tier 2 representative and they told me that my NOA1 hard copy was sent out on September 26. I currently live in Mexico so maybe that's why it is taking so much time to arrive. The mail system here is not that great. :/ Hopefully you receive yours soon as well! :) good luck!

I'm on this September train, filed 09/13 and received our NOA1 on 09/17 (my dads bday). Praying God is showing us a sign with that relevant date. Let's keep this train rolling, I know it's a long journey and I'm ready for the ride ;)
