I just got off the phone with a USCIS customer service rep at 800-375-5283, he gave little new information. Just that there was a large workload increase after the first of the year.

LOL, do you think it's strange that there is not even ONE additional NOA2 entered in the timelines for Mon23 and Tue 24?

If they were actually by Randy's donuts itself, I might give them a pass . . . But since it's the OC, must be a new juice bar or fitness center. Plastic surgery? (how many stereotypes can we get in one thread! NO! that wasn't a challenge, please!)

What have we decided, Wed-Fri are the action days? Okay, we'll see what happens. I was expecting to at least get touched last week. But not so much as poke yet.

I did have to change my password on the egov page because the 90 days were almost up (I'm past 100 days waiting under VJ stats and over 90 under fwaguy stats).

Then I got an email that flashed up as from "CRIS" which is what USCIS emails say (at least ones I've received for registering at the site, etc). Only problem was I forgot for a moment that I had changed the password (about a 10 min lagtime between changing it and getting the confirmation email) and I allowed myself to think . . . .

I wanted to smack myself in the head when I opened the email and went "oh, right . . .barsts!"

I-129F/K1

1-12-07 mailed to CSC

1-22-07 DHS cashes the I-129F check

5-20-07 Packet 3 mailed

5-26-07 Packet 3 received

5-29-07 Packet 3 returned, few days later than planned due to bank holiday weekend

6-06-07 Medical in London (called to schedule on May 29)

6-11-07 "Medical in file" at Embassy

6-14-07 Resent packet 3 to Embassy after hearing nothing about first try

6-22-07 DOS says "applicant now eligible for interview," ie: they enter p3 into their system

6-25-07 DOS says interview date is August 21

6-28-07 Help from our congressional representative gives us new interview date: July 6

I just got 2 emails from CRIS!!!

Got our NOA2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally, I'm so happy!!!

Everybody else who's still waiting, don't worry, seems like they started working at CSC now!! :thumbs:

The world around you gets hazy and the only thing you focus on is you and that person. And for that one moment you've been given this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry at the same time because you're so lucky you've found it and so scared that it will go away.
