I'm finally back in the US from visiting my fiance and now officially wearing an engagement ring!? I'm catching up on the conversations and it's exciting to see all the updates from ppl with the same NOA2 date as me. Hopefully I get good news when I call NVC on Monday. The last few days were pure bliss...can't wait to have him here with me.

**I am the petitioner**

Thank you. :)

Now, I'm confused on what to do next. I'm pretty sure that I have researched everything, a step by step process on what needs to be done but I guess I'm still in a state of shock and surreal happiness. :D I didn't expect to get the news today since I stopped checking on the tracker. It was my fiance who told me the good news. I'm just so happy that the most stressful part is over.

The next step is NVC. Your petition will be forwarded to NVC and assigned a case number. For the Philippines its the MCN #. From what I've seen here its taking about 20 days or so to get case numbers from NVC. I called Friday and nothing yet for me with NVC but it's only been 10 days since my NOA2. Once you have your case number, your petition will be forwarded to the embassy in Manila. Should take a week or less for them to get it. Also, once you have your MCN you can start gathering all your documents such as your NBI clearance and your CENOMAR. You can also schedule your medical appt and your inteview.

Good luck :)

And congrats on the NOA2. That seems to be the hardest part!

God is good! Got our approval! Apparently, we're already approved since Oct 29th. We just didn't get any notifications though and were advised to wait for the mail instead.

For those still waiting for their NOA2 approval, just keep checking the myUSCIS site =).

So happy!! <3

Many of us who applied early September were expecting to have our significant others with us by Christmas or New Years. Is that still the expectation?

my application just arrived at the embassy, based on everyones posts most are right around there as well. But seems like most Embassies give interviews 2-4months from now!!

For anyone that is scheduling interviews in Manila, can you please let me know how backed up it is? If I schedule My fiance's interview and medical exam for the end of January in the beginning of December, I'm hoping that is early enough to get that date.
