Hopefully we'll get a bunch of approvals today. It's pouring rain in so-cal right now.

I hope the adjudicators stay in their offices and work hard!

Is it unusual to get "touched" again? I got touched today 4/20.

This is after my 4/19 touch and 4/19 email about the NOA2 Approval.

Yay!!

No action here yet, but I bet us Jan. 29ers will hear something next week.

A question - I have everything together to send to my fiance (I-134, proof of ongoing relationship, etc.) will he also need a copy of the NAO2? Has anyone who's had their interview know if this is necessary? Thanks.

6/1/06 Met in Rwanda

11/21/06 My parents came to visit and we're officially engaged

11/30/06 Returned to USA

1/26/07 I129f Sent

1/29/07 NAO1

5/1/07 Touched!

5/2/07 Touched again

5/16/07 Learn from my senator's office that petition was approved two weeks ago. NVC says case was received 5/14 and should be sent to the embassy today.

Yeah, I compared the NOA2s with December 2006 NOA1s(a month earlier than our January NOA1s), and a year ago NOA1s from January 2006. The NOA1s from January this year are lagging weeks behind previous months and a year ago. Reasonable speculation is due to a sudden load of HB-1 work visas.
