Do you think that VJ Timeline Processing is accurate now?

Nope

 

Timeline processing is just averages.  Seems like none of us are doing average times.  But, I do think you will have an approval very very soon!

During our medical, we hid some fruits on our bags. :)) We were eating while waiting for the clinic to open 😊

Nice!!!!

Healthy choice

Can't wait to hear of your review.  You know I prayed for you several times that day.  Sounds like you had a hiccup regardless......  Back again on Monday, sorry you have to go back again.  You say bus trip is 6 to 7 hrs?  What province are you from?

I called them, They do not have mine yet.. I am planning to call them all this week. After waiting 152 days for USCIS to mail NOA2, the last thing I want to do is wait for the NVC.

Well called nvc trying to get our number so we could track it... they said they just recieved it today...call back in two weeks...lololol.. um that means call back monday with my fingers crossed lololol...

 

 

 

I called NVC on one day and they said they did not have my case. Literally the next day, I received an e-mail from NVC saying my case was forwarded on to the consulate. I wonder if the person on the phone mistyped our case #...

Another day, another informed delivery e-mail, and another day of there's being nothing exciting in it Officially hit 4 months of waiting today and counting...

Yep, we feel ya.  Having others in the same situation seems to make this seem a little more bearable.  The 'not knowing' is the worst thing.  If I was to learn that Dec 15 I would be adjudicated, I'd be happier than wondering every day until Dec 15....... So they really have us over a barrel.  For me, it seemed to get a little bit easier when I hit 4 months.  I have concluded that I'm either in a backlog room somewhere with 6 other 129F's - OR - I'm on someone's desk and just around the corner from being touched.  Either way, I can't control what happens, but I know that 4 months gives me seniority and I have to be closer to approval than from receipt.    Who I feel for is the Apr May Jun filers.  It appears their wait is going to be 4 months minimum to 6 months.  Ouch!

Well, I did my usual morning ritual today, which is to sit down at my desk, start working, and wait for informed delivery to show.

 

When I shows up I close my eyes and visualize an image of a letter from USCIS with the NOA2 in it.

 

So I did that this morning, opened the email and... nada!

 

Day 135.

Nothing in my fiancés informed mail either but he stops by the mailbox on his way home from work everyday to check. What worries me is he lives in a huge complex of apartment buildings so there is a huge row of mailboxes. What if our noa2 is put in the wrong box. I guess though if that were the case we would eventually hear hopefully from Nvc. Sigh Day 135 and tomorrow is another day.

My thoughts exactly! 

Not knowing is the hardest, feeling like you're in a limbo and your life is on hold. It's hard to plan your short-term future while you're waiting too. Like, I can't really plan any trips, or take on any projects that would require me to stay in one city, etc. So frustrating.

I'm still assuming it'd be in your informed delivery e-mail, and you'd just be able to report it not being delivered, if it gets misplaced.

But what scares me are those "a piece of mail that we do not currently have an image for is included in your mail today"  LOL

Yeah I work everyday now no breaks 2 jobs. You would think that would make me too busy to think. Sadly no. Lol

Yes but several people did not get informed mail showing the USCIS letter so even that fails.

Oh gosh, that's probably even worse! So much stress at once.

Day 125 

[AfricanQ 241]

Called USCIS yesterday n was told there's a 7+ month wait. Basically I have to wait over 7 month before my case can be touch.   my received date is March 15 notice date March 22. I really don't understand.
