It means there are 0 cases in "Case was Received" status. I checked the spreadsheet and there are only 2 cases that day, and both are withdrawn petitions. So it's essentially an empty day.

Thank you everyone! Jim, thank you so much for setting up this thread. I called her at work and she was just quiet. She said she was happy, but other than that was just quiet. She said she would call me later. Maybe she is in shock. I am very happy. Not shocked at all!

 

Congratulations to everyone who was approved today! 

 

We will be part of this thread for a long time. First step down, lots to go!

Hello VJ family! Finally got my approval today when I checked the USCIS app. It was a busy morning at work and wasn't able to check the forum and app right away. Can't contain how relieved I am! Just couldn't share it with my fiance though because he just fell asleep :/

 

Hope everyone gets theirs soon too! It was an 86-day wait!

No need to wait for NVC #.  You can use your WAC number from USCIS. We already have ours filled out and we don't have our NOA 2 yet.

Get busy:thumbs:

Thank you everyone! Jim, thank you so much for setting up this thread. I called her at work and she was just quiet. She said she was happy, but other than that was just quiet. She said she would call me later. Maybe she is in shock. I am very happy. Not shocked at all!

 

Congratulations to everyone who was approved today! 

 

We will be part of this thread for a long time. First step down, lots to go!

She probably wants to shout but not make a scene since at work. You know how it is there.

Major hurdle for you both complete. 

Now the REAL fun begins.

 

Jim
