Why not? Its not a federal holiday.

Well in the Holier Than Thou State of Arkansas all children are out of school. This is why I asked the question.

They're out for spring break because that's when the school district and/or state decided to give the break. They didn't give it FOR Good Friday, I assure you. Clever timing? Yes. But common in areas where there's a concentration of any particular religion. Schools often schedule days off for breaks or whatever else on days when students might be absent anyway for family holidays or religious celebrations (like Jewish holy days or around Easter for Christians, etc).

I'm afraid you did not address your message directly to your subject.. We cannot guess whom you were speaking to with just simple HI. :D But I hope you can talk directly to that person so you will have someone to go with on your seminar. It would lessen your boredom for sure. God bless.

From PH too.

I didnt receive any touches; Good luck everyone!

So when you checked your status online there was no change in the date or do you mean the date changed to reflect your NOA2? You received an email right?

No touches, just the approval.

I followed the 129F packet word for word and provided everything suggest off VJ website to be sure.

I waited and waited and waited. Then finally, APPROVAL.

I used the timeline and input my own dates so I would know when to look for any approval.

Keep the faith! We all are on similar paths! I just takes time to get there.
