If you are still waiting I highly recommend Immifairy website. Hannah has done a bunch of work to get all of the 129F captured and you can really see where you are in the data

I can't believe how lucky we were There were a block of 11 approved yesterday with NOA1 dates of 3/2/2015 and SRC159021 prefix. This is out of approximately 126 that share the same two pieces of data.

This website really shows you the blocks that are going.

Good Luck to all. May your journey be swift

I just can't believe it Kyle!! congratulations!! I can remember how we were talking about how we crunched our numbers a couple months ago... and I'm gladly surprised that you almost hit your prediction!! I had predicted mine for late August but as yours came in almost one week late, I'd be really happy to receive the good news within the first weeks of September.

Thank you very much for keeping us posted and big hugs for you and Linh. :joy:

I have a question about the police certificate. Actually two... is it okay if it was issued over a year ago and does it need to be translated to english?

I am Romanian but currently living in Japan, I had my romanian police certificate issued last year, can I still use that one or do i need a newer one?

I haven't been to Romania since it was issued, does that matter?

Also, do I need to translate my birth certificate to English?

Thanks

Micky2014 thanks for responding. I won't interview in Bucharest, my interview will be in Tokyo where I live right now. So I guess I'm gonna translate all my romanian documents just to be sure and get a new police certificate.

Thank you
