You know I'm one too, Tonyeck! Sorry for the compulsive PMing, but I'm just so frustrated seeing petitions that were sent a full two weeks after me getting approved!

Aww, No, I wasn't in any way talking about you moaning. Trust me. I was just reminding you of other things that you should focus on more ;) Like your girlfriend (edit to say: Fiancee hehe) especially since you guys are so lucky to be with each other right now :)

Plus, thinking of things like that really helps to make the much more difficult/agonizing process a bit easier :)

I'm sorry if it seemed like I was implying you were constantly complaining. Trust me, I would be too, heck I think I'd do like 100x more complaining than you do, and mine would be annoying too ahha!! :whistle:

But your approval will come soon!!

How many days after the check clears in your account do you usually get the NOA1? And does it mean anything if the NOA1 takes longer for one person than another? I can't read the number on the back of my check and I am just getting worried since I haven't heard anything. I hope I didn't mess anything up.

Don't worry. You should get the NOA-1 soon. It seems there is no thyme or reason to this process. I see you and I have the same mailing dates, NealandCari .

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
