Hi everybody!

Found this tread like a fresh breath of air, my SO and I have been waiting for 7 months for our NOA2.

He called on Wednesday, the vocal machine said the I-797 was sent (nearly burst crying), he called back a couple hours after and talked to a tier 2 officer who told him they were treating August cases and to wait another month (because that's so easy to do). So right now I'm a mess, I don't know what to believe and I'm in a constant stress.

I feel bad for feeling jealousy towards people who have their case in CSC, I feel stressed because we are supposed to get married on September 26th, I feel mad because of all the false hope.

Like all of you I hope we will all be approved in the next week or so.. Best luck to you!

I know how you feel,when they get approved the little monster just shows his green head.I've wished so many times dat i was at CSC.Another month is pretty hard but i honestly don't think we will be there that long.Just hold the faith,i know its hard to do right now after seven months but i believe our approvals are coming soon....Just wait on it :) Being positive is all i can do to not go crazy
