Just checking in.  Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day and hopefully this is the last Valentine's we all have to spend apart from our loves!  It looks like there was some good movement in the November filers.  Hopefully they can clear them out in the next few weeks and start working into December!  Hope everyone is hanging in there!

As a January filer, I'm really looking forward to you December guys getting some movement behind your applications! If my maths is correct (based on November movement), it's looking hopeful for December to be started in March. Fingers crossed for a big increase in speed, of course. Good luck to all of you, and here's to Valentine's Day 2018 with our loves.

Happy Valentine's was great for you all regardless of time difference. We had a pizza FaceTime and made plans for 2018s Valentine's Day!!

 

be patient and remain positive this wait will be more than worth in the end!! 

 

That being said im positive march will be the month for the vast majority of us and looking at approvals it's averaging out at about 82 days. Unfortunately some people have waited/still waiting over that but then others have been approved in less.

 

if you think positive and put it out there then that's what you get back in return.

 

meanwhile I'll see most of you in the November forum "daily report is like a news fix lol"

FaceTime dates are the best.   They definitely keep us going.  My favorite is syncing up and watching movies together while on FaceTime.  Gives you that little piece of connection even from 4000 miles away.  Next Valentine's Day we will definitely be going all out.  We all have a lot to make up for!  Haha. 

 

Still keeping close tabs on the November filers thread.  It is exciting to see the movement in there.  I cant wait to see the first December filer post that they got their NOA2!  I am keeping my eyes open for it!

Yeah exactly we normally just position our phones and have 1 of us stream the movie or tv show. But right it's the little things that make the miles feel like they have evaporated. We also kill

a lot of zombies on old school ps3 lol! 

 

Yeah missed 1 Valentine's Day and I'll miss her birthday it's next Friday  but the positive in it is that this will be the only one I miss in our life together ❤️ And just maybe we might get an approval (count all my lucky stars as we will be officially on day 70)  or at least have uscis starting to look at December. 

 

Yeah im watching November like a hawk. Did you join on the part 2 group?? 1st got closed from admins for to many posts lmao!!

I still don't understand in what order USCIS works their cases  but it will be so nice to see them working December cases haha let all of us be lucky just like that person whose case got approved today!

It's really hard missing special events/holidays.  We were lucky to get to spend Christmas and the New Year together but we too will be missing another birthday (his is beginning of April).  We are really hoping that we will get our NOA2 as a birthday gift this year! haha. 

 

I am following the new November thread.  It is a lot of positive right now which helps make the wait a little better.  It is exciting to see all of the November filers getting approvals!  What is your NOA1 date?  I can't wait to see some approvals from December.  Looks like we are starting to get close!  (We are a late December filer but our receipt date is Jan 5 so we still have a little while to go )

Unfortunately it looks like the December approval was in error  But it does look like a lot of late November approvals are coming through so that is definitely a positive!

Looks like things are moving along at a good pace in the November thread. I think we might start to see some movement here within the next few weeks! 

I'm going shopping for my wedding dress tomorrow, and I'm really nervous! I don't have a lot of wedding experience (only been to 2 weddings in my whole life), so the stress is really starting to hit me. At least it is distracting me from the NOA2 wait for now!
