hahaha thank you so much, Holly! :D

Np =) and thank you for letting me know about your 2 week wait. I just get so frazzled when I see many others with NOA1 dates that are like 4 and 5 days after their mailing date.

I didn't count weekends, I don't believe they work on the weekends so that's why I didn't count them.

I did notice that the notice date for my NOA1 was after my check had cleared the bank. The receipt date for me was the 28th. I noticed they deposited my check on the 31st (a Friday), and on Monday the 3rd I received my NOA1 text, but no e-mail. My check also moved from pending status in my bank ledger to paid on the 3rd. That may or may not have something to do with notice dates for those of you who are still waiting as the NOA1 hardcopy also serves as a receipt of payment. If for some reason your check were to bounce, you would receive a different notice.

Great words! You all will need more of them over the next weeks. 

Stay together and cheer up each other for this journey.

The process of waiting is hard and will ask for a lot of patience ... but yes it will be all worth it in the end.

We have to fight hard to be with our loved ones ... but what could be better to prove how much we want to be with the person we love.

And yes ... to know others, doing the same for their love, and not to feel alone ... that helps more as I could imagine before!

Stay strong, try to be patient and never give up hope ... all will be as it should be in a bit ... It's just a matter of time!

Hey guys. Me and @AkesAngel are working on getting the scans together. Just wanted to give y'all an update. I should have everything ready and can start doing daily scans within the next week. There probably won't be any movement on our cases for another few weeks, more or less, so it'll be right on time for us to track our updates.

Hi, girls.

 

April filer here (well, the petition was sent the 30th, but USPS thought it would be fun to have it on hold for five days before delivering, so...:huh:). I know it's too early for being talking about scans for April (we are still waiting for our NOA1), that I don't know if I can commit to do given I'm not IT expert or anything.

 

Still I'm very curious about the process, and specially wondering where you get the base data to start with. Is that something you can access to once you have a receipt and case number? Because I would really like to be able to know how many cases there are for March/April and every day.

 

Thank you! And of course, good luck going on with the process.

We will work on getting to know how many there are for March ... it makes no sense to start with April before the month is over, but pretty sure it will come :)

Wow, I wasn't on here for a little more than a day, and I found so much to read!
It's so great to have you all in the same boat!

No progressing here; I'm still trying to find time to sell stuff on eBay. 
Work week was rough, in that case I can't wait to leave. Things happened that will make it easier to disappear after 10 years!

Thanks to @AkesAngel and @Rev for figuring out the scans!! :))

@AkesAngel are you the petitioner or the beneficiary? I'm the beneficiary and from the nation of Sauerkraut as well! :)

Have a fabulous Sunday, my fellow Anonymous Whiners! :)
