Thank you for this thread! While its lovely to see all CSC people getting approved, its a bit annoying to know we'll be waiting for our NOA2 around April-May unless some miracle happens! -1 month dow

I'm glad you said this out loud lol It makes me sad seeing the CSC approvals when I know ours will take forever but I love the November board

I've heard this rumor as well, but I'm taking it with a grain of salt. I'm only going to assume that things will speed up in January only because the holidays are over and most federal employees will

November filer (Nov 17th) here.. We also waited painstakingly long 10 MONTHS... to get NOA 2. :ranting::crying::crying:

My visa was approved today!! finally.. The interview was not hard but maybe it was because I over prepared for it:)) They can't stop you because whatever the reason they might have against you. I proved my love and commitment. My poor baby had to suffer through my emotional ups and downs as well as my frustration.. Now I feel so excited that we can start our life together..

So many things to do.. I need to buy one way ticket to New York!!!

For some of you who are still waiting.. Don't give up because there is light at the end of this journey. :idea:

Congratulation to you

I'm passing the same situation with anxious days and heart beating every moment I bring the interview in mind, but I believe in the truth and the strong relationship. I believe they are able to notice a true relation from a face one.

Wish you all the best

  • Placed on Request online for RFE hardcopy to be sent by mail on September 14, 2016
  • As of October 4, 2016 Still waiting for RFE hardcopy to come in the mail, called USCIS on September 30, 2016 no help.
  • As of November 3, 2016 We received an email in regards to not receiving in the mail the Request for Evidence (RFE) , come to find out they really didn't need any additional information. So now the have to wait another 120 more days before we can get an interview or approval. This is some BS.
  • As of February 7, 2017, We received in the mail Interview Date for AOS on March 20, 2017

To anyone from Nov 2014 filers still waiting for NOA2, do not lose hope and be patient. It WILL come.

Thanks all for the support, we could not have got to this stage without you all.

Congrats!

Hello everybody! This is my first post on Visa Journey, however, I have been reading and using this site for information for a long time now.

I am a November Filer. My NOA 1 was received on November 14th, 2014.

We are still waiting on the NOA 2.

Everytime I call, put in a service request, I get a E-respond saying that the case is still in security checks.

It is just about to be one year of waiting for us.

My fiance is in Bangkok, Thailand. I just spent a month over there living at her place. And now that I'm back to the US, we're just stuck with this hopeless feeling and never-ending wait.

12/14/2013 - Met in Virginia

2/2014 - Fiance left the US to Thailand on bereavement
09/23/2014 - Got engaged at The Temple Of Dawn

11/2014 - I-129F send

11/14/2014 - Date I-129f Received by USCIS

11/18/2015 - NOA1 Received
......

.....

....

....

...

...11/13/2015 - Still waiting for NOA 2



Visits to Thailand.....
Visit #1 - September 18 - September 27th 2014 (Mission: Get Engaged)
Visit # 2 - January 20 - February 4th 2015 (Mission: Tour Thailand as a couple)

Visit # 3- October 12 - November 5th 2015 (Mission: Live together overseas as a couple)
