Yes, for the same beneficiary. So technically, we have waited over a year for a NOA-2.

I am so sorry. That is exactly why you should post when you receive your NOA2! You have waited a long time too and it will be eventful when you receive your approval. Do you mind me asking what happened the first time?

I think I kinda went into it briefly in the 'no nothing' thread. I don't think this process is going to be easy. My SO is from the ME, so we are looking at slowness, AR/AP and maybe a waiver.......that's IF all goes accordingly. BTW, my real name is Wait....lol.

Don't worry yourself, you will be approved .

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.

I think I remember reading it. Yeah, I guess everyone from the middleeast is stereotyped now until proven innocent. That's sad. I truly hope you will receive your approval this time. More than likely, you will receive a different adjudicator this time. I'm in your corner. BTW...my real name is 'Worry'..lol (actually it's Veronica)

I don't even want to think about having to do this twice...you must be on your last nerve brother...I know I would be...

It's unbelivable... How could we ever thank God for this...?

We've got our approval, saw it today on uscis's site... thought I should give it a try since my fiance is in the plane coming here :) And there it was:

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On May 4, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

Logged out several times to be sure I am not dreaming... I'm laughing and crying in the same time...

What better news to welcome my love on the airpport then this?! What better present for his birthday coming on May 10th?!

:dance::dance::dance::dance:

Never cease praying God... there's NOTHING that He cannot do, if this is what is meant for you. And it does help taking a break from uscis site as much as possible, until time is close. I have been checking it only once in a while... :)

And btw, the approval came one day earlier than my first projected date (May 5th). Lately it was showing May 29th...

I will be keeping you all who are going through this process in my prayers... it's the hardest thing we've done so far, so I know what we are all going through.

Congrats to you Sapphire and your So...good luck with the rest of your journey... :dance::thumbs::dance:

Call me Sister! ( ok, Im not a guy ) I cannot say one gets used to it, but what can we do? I pray a lot, and thanks to all those who pray in agreement with me. I do the same for foe and friend alike here. I do not see how anyone can manage this process without it.

It's good that you haven't gotten discouraged. Everyone's circumstance is truly different. It's sad that immigration has come to this, but I suppose our government has to do something to get a handle on it. Not that I agree this should be the answer. Maybe they should concentrate on the guys doing it illegally and give us law-abiders a break..?

Thanks hmm1 !!! Well, who said life and the government is fair? And yes, I do get discouraged, but then I have to remind myself I have to fight and fight and never give up. This unseen enemy is strong, but I have a big God beside me, behind me, and on both sides of me. He does not have amnesia and neither are His arms too short. What He started , He will finish.

As usual, I'm trying not to obsess, :blush:so did some checking on the 'numbers'. Here they are, for those interested.

January Filers:

Total Petitions ----101

Number w/ NOA2----72

%----71.29%

Avg days NOA1 - NOA2----88.875

February Filers:

Total Petitions----103

# with NOA2----19

%----18.45%

Avg days NOA1-NOA2----76.11

The average days between NOA-NOA2 is less for February, so far....so as long as they keep the approvals coming, we're in good shape. :)

Hey, that is some good work...hopefully we get out NOA2's soon, seeing as we both have the same NOA1 date.
