Hi everyone!

So happy to hear that in many cases it's going fast!! Our time from NOA1 to NOA2 was just 24 days (California Service Center) It was approved the 27th and we got the NOA2 hard copy on February 3rd. Now waiting for NVC... I was going to wait the 30 days that the letter mentions but I can't!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to call on Monday although I'm not sure the beneficiary can call... If it's a problem I'll have my fiance call but he won't be able to until late evening (the middle of the night for me) and the suspense is killing me! I was ready to be patient (I thought we'd wait 3-5 months until NOA2) but since the first step didn't take long I got too excited! :-P I just want to know whether they received it or not... I saw on the forum that many people start calling only a week after NOA2 and it's been two so maybe I'll be lucky and they already have it.

Good luck everyone!! This forum helps so much... It's not just the information but the feeling of support. There's so many people going through the same...

WOW, it's usually automatic, and very quick! For me, it only took 6 days.

My NOA1 took about a week and then NOA2 took 17 days from the date they received it. Now I wonder how long tell it takes till it goes through the State Department and on to the Philippines! Soon I will need my paper work to my fiancee to have for when she gets an interview! I haven't started to look for prices and best way to mail it there. I would hate there to be a problem with the mail!
