No I got one 6/10 I think. I hadn't recieved my NOA2 hardcopy, and after several phone calls and a touch I noticed that I was touched. I few days later I got my NOA2 in the mail. Did you get your NOA2 hardcopy yet?

I am still getting touches from USCIS.. Am I the only one?

No NOA-2 hardcopy yet.. The last time I called the CSC was June 18 and I got email from USCIS informing they sent the approval hardcopy on June 19 and after that, got touches on 20th, 25th and 26th.. I hope hardcopy will come soon.. :wacko:

You were never a mistake. You were my realization.

Good morning everyone!!! Good news, our case reached the NVC on the 25, and left on the 27th. Thank the stars, we are London bound!!! I have to say, just knowing now that we are for sure out of CSC gives me assurance that our case will be handled more efficiently and in a timely manner!!!! I have nothing nice to say about CSC. I'm not quite sure which forum I'm supposed to cruise over to though??!!! Kinda funny that I feel this loyalty to January filers thread, and I'm not even a Jan filer!!! Splain that one!!!! I guess I'm just a sucker for change, ha ha!!! Well, I hope everyone is having a good day. Take care, Jen

Marlon has set his date for his medical for July 18. He got some shots yesterday and won't need to get more until he is here.

I need to be patient :unsure:

Dan&Tiffany - Hang in there, your interview will come soon but might I recommend a change in the wedding date? That is soon but perhaps you may be able to pull it off! *crossing fingers for you*

George - Wow. What a journey!

Dan&Tiffany, thank you. All of our stars are finally lining up!

Sarah, yeah, what a journey! But ya know, it was only 5-1/2 months from when the Nebraska SC received our docs to the K-1 visa being approved. This is a bit better than expected, I think. The worst part was waiting 3-1/2 months without a peep from CSC, while other filers were receiving touches and some approvals.

Of course, if it wasn't for the post January slowdown, we would all be at the current places in our process 4-6 weeks ago.

Just makes you sick, doesn't it?

And, yeah, FM, I'm sure we will probably have to reschedule. I can't stand to even think of all the people, vendors, venues we have to call and change bookings for. Makes me ill. Luckily, we knew this was a possibility (although we thought only a slight one) from the beginning so all vendors are aware that a date change is possible, and we won't be charged for changing dates. It's just trying to find a new one that is going to be tough.

On a happy note, bought a ticket last night to fly to the UK for a long weekend. I leave on Thursday. It was completely unplanned, but we're both pathetic, so what the hell?
