I am happy for you but at the same time I am very frustrated. My NOA1 was April 19, and I was transferred to TSC on November 15th. So I should have been approved before you. I know they are expediting

Hey -moanette90210! Got an answer for you! What do you do if a receipt notice or approval notice has an error? The immigration application and petition processing at times can be long and arduous. B

Hello guys, I would like to share my happiness with you because our petition has been approved. I'm a July 29th filer and was transferred to TSC last Nov. 21. Just this December 3, my status has changed to post decision activity with approval notice. Miracles do happen when we believe and pray for it with all our heart. I'm so overwhelmed that waiting for NOA2 has finally ended and now commencing to the next stage. Thank you Lord for this early Christmas gift! smile.png

God is good all the time!!!

I am happy for you but at the same time I am very frustrated. My NOA1 was April 19, and I was transferred to TSC on November 15th. So I should have been approved before you. I know they are expediting apps from the Philippines, but I have been waiting longer and I feel like I should have been approved earlier. I will be pretty furious if I don't hear something by Christmas.

Thnx! Sorry to hear that but don't lose hope. God will grant yours in due time.Maybe this fast adjudication is part of immigration relief measures to the Philippines because of the typhoon. Praying you will have your NOA2 soon too..
