We, however, were approved before the estimated timelines. NOA2 comes in the mail today and our approval is dated August 10th, so 121 days since NOA1, 126 since received date.

 

Since it's a Monday, Gary telecommutes today, so I'll tell him to keep an eye on the postman when he wakes up :)

 

 

Oh my God! I almost missed that too. Congratulations esti! I feel ecstatic for you and gary I am getting more and more excited for our Noa2 for the rest of us this week. So you were right after all your approval could have been in the mail last Thursday.

The only good thing about today is it's one day closer to the NOA2, lol.  

 

Question?  Does anyone know what the receipt number translates to?  I've googled it; but mine doesn't make sense.  The first 2 numbers are the fiscal year.  The next three should be the calendar day of the fiscal year they they received my payment.  But mine is 902, and the calendar days end at about 280...

@Estibaliz Omg girl congratulations!!! 🎉🎉🍹

 

I am soooo happy for you I almost cried!!! 

Such amazing news! 😀

 

@Keith & Monica Any news on what your RFE is? I'm about to try and call Uscis again in a moment thru Skype. I know we have an RFE I'm wondering if it's the same as yours and delayed in the post somewhat... did you ask Uscis to expedite yours? 

No news yet.  Still does not show online that we have an RFE.  Nothing yet in the mail either.  I have asked for the expedite, but have not heard back from them yet.  They said that it would take 5 days or more.  Hopefully will hear about it soon.

@S*UK Sorry for being confusing :P:)

 

@rachied26 Aww, thank you. I'm really hoping you get news about the RFE soon, because your personal situation asks for it :yes: I'll be very happy when things start moving for you too.

 

@JeniandMatt Thank you, Jeni! I was having a good feeling lately, yep. I might have seer powers now... Would be fun being rational me :rolleyes:

 

Language, @KeriAn! And another aww for you. I didn't know I was that appreciated for everyone, lol. I will be equally happy for you very soon ;)

 

@JOA AND ROBERT LOL, so now I'm going to be known as the sneaky crafty Spanish girl :P Thank you!

 

Thank you @mcs too for your nice words. Focusing on facts, information and helping others out has helped me with the waiting. Though I can tell you, I thought I would be waiting longer :o

 

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR SHARING THE HAPPINESS WITH ME. Gary is still sleeping, LOL

But I said it already this morning. I want to see more good news coming in the mail today. Don't disappoint me!

I wish they would just hurry up with it for you... First Tcovington , now you. Already sucks to be in limbo and then waiting on something that possibly delay it even more. Jeebus!

I haven't been on to read over the weekend so I was pitchforking though 10 pages this morning to catch up on the approvals, rants and other news!:lol: After seeing everybody call the USCIS on Friday and tell the news they had hear I decided to call to! The lady I spoke to was very nice and polite. She asked my Case # and if it was the first time calling and reason I was calling. Of course she went though her script of February 1st all that jazz so I asked to speak to a Tier 2 Officer and they said I have to demand to talk to one so I said okay I politely and respectfully demand to speak to a Tier 2 officer :lol:. Of course I had to wait for the call back (about 20 minutes)and then when they called back I had to verify it was me with all the questions. After that they said your case is at the CSC and then I lost signal on my phone! So I called again and go though all the steps again wait for the phone call ( this time about 30 minutes) it was a different officer this time. I ask several question about has my case passed the "preview stage" He told me my case has not been assigned to an officer yet and said it may be "2 or 3 weeks"  I have a received date of April 19 so I wasn't really expecting but wishfully hoping for an approval answer. Just wanted to share my experience 

 

Congrats to all you Approvals out there! @tcovington I think everybody is excited to see @Estibaliz get the approval! For the rest of us ... you can fill in an inspirational quote works best for you but stay positive and best of luck, blessings and favor through the rest of this journey! 

 

Special hello to all the lurkers :ph34r: :lol:
