Thanks.

Thank you for doing that, Yoel, I'll see you over there! :dancing:

October 2011: Met in Spain

2012-2014: Video chat + visas + visits and vacations = we made it through!

June 2014: Moved to Spain, got engaged 

December 31, 2015: got married

April 20, 2016: sent I130 package

May 2, 2016: package received in Chicago Lockbox - - - 12 days for delivery!! Don't use TNT couriers!! 

May 2nd or 5th, 2016: email NOA1... accepted and sent to.... NEBRASKA 

And now.... breeeeeeathe..... be like water my friend....

October 26th, 2016: NOA2 [We had waited almost 6 months. Received notification from the phone app, never got an email.]

November 9th 2016: USCIS sent the petition to NVC (app notification) [waited 2 weeks after approval for this]

November 25th 2016: NVC received and created account for our petition [waited 16 days after USCIS sent it, for NVC to acknowledge receipt]

Dec 1st 2016: Chose agent online DS261 [a few days later than it could've been since the above NVC email went to SPAM!]

Dec 6th 2016: Case available for paying fees. That was fast, I think! 5 days!

April 28th 2017: CHECKLIST. Moroccans are required to send a Court Report regardless of Police Record status. My husband had to go back to Morocco to get it in person. Also, NVC wants a 2016 tax return now that is 2017. My bad.

SabrinaJerome they go by your submission date not your NOA1 date. So you really are a April filer. But you and should start a May filer forum thread.

Well, if "submission" means that it was received at the lockbox, then yes, believe it or not, it was May.

May 2 to be exact.

The envelope left my hands here in Spain in April, and didn't reach Chicago until May.

Like I mentioned before, my advice is don't use TNT couriers, as they promised 2 days, and I waited 12 days.

Reminds me, got to get back to complaining to get my 27 euros back :ranting:

I looked before and there was a 5 month processing time and today when I looked it had a date. I know it says that if a date is shown it is because they are experiencing delays but from what I calculate, it seems to be the same as the 5 months time if that makes sense.? I see people are saying that dec fillers are getting approvals, how are people seeing these things?! I'm going to have a mental breakdown ! I didn't think it would be this hard being away from my husband :(

The beginning is always the hardest because the road seems so long. Get into a routine, keep plugging along and you'll make it. The times they have are (I think) the absolute last one. Like when I filed in November, by March it was saying they were still working on September, so I figured I had two more months. They approved it at the end of March. So you probably want to pay more attention to the times here.

Keep your chin up! It's tough, but it'll be over soon and we're all going through the same (or at least similar) thing!

If you go to the menu bar on the top left corner of the page and goto "IMMIGRATION TIMES" they tells you what dates their working on for the service centers. Nebraska is working on Dec 28th ppl.

No on here the menu box in this corner↗↗↗↗↗↗

Okay, yeah I've been looking at those... but can I ask a question that I should probably know the answer to by now...?

If my husband is a Moroccan citizen who has lived in Spain for 15 years and is a long term resident, and we live here and are going to interview in Madrid... then which country am I indicating here on VJ, for example, on my profile, or wherever it says "country"...??

Am I looking at the NOA1-NOA2 times for "Spain" or "Morocco"??

I mean, we are here in Spain, but I'm pretty sure that the US government is looking at him as a MOROCCAN!
