I know it's completely out of my hands, but part of me feels a bit guilty because I do think it's unfair that we've been approved when there are others with NOA1 from before ours that are still waiting. I wish so much that you all get approved soon.

Sparkle I understand where you are coming from. It wouldn't be like that if USCIS would process cases in the order in which there were received because as it stands now it looks like they don't
