@Estibaliz Enhorabuena!!  I was hoping you would get approved today. :)   But going from España to Salt Lake City?  You will have a very difficult time finding Jamon Serrano, Mantecados and Polverones at Christmas time.  :jest: Not to mention they don't celebrate Reyes.  But los magos already brought your gifts early this year.  Best Wishes!   

Thank you! I loved this message :D But it's polvorones :P

 

@dee-ar Thank you. I'll still be around, so no worries.

 

@Jasmayne Definitely call them, because I remember we had the same timeline and we got the NOA2 in the mail today, so maybe they just sent the wrong NOA and you are approved. Hope so!

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 :)

WOOHOO congratulations :D

Coooooongrats to you, I'm truly happy for you. Yeah, we keep trying, but all this waiting surely drives me crazy, well even more than I'm already am that is 😜

I hope and pray you're right, I was thinking the same thing but trying to forget about it since it's wishful thinking at this point. Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it

It's called putting something up on a public forum that COULD BE MISINTERPRETED.  I think we all agree it wasn't meant that way but again that's not the point.  Thanks for admitting it's a bad idea, even though no one (even me) took the idea seriously.     

 

 Thank you for not putting words in my mouth as the other poster did and being respectful after the fact.  I apologize for calling you classless earlier.  That wasn't cool and I admit it.  in the end however we will simply disagree on this one, but I understand where you are coming from.  Whether you posted the picture or not you used it in your post and used it as a prop.  But point being again I never misinterpreted your post.  I simply stated it was a poor idea to put a suggestion like that on a message board joke or not.  And then the other poster decided to swoop in and really make a big deal out of my well thought out comment. 

 

That was my original post. My whole point was 1. I get its not a joke.  2. Joke or not it's not the best idea to post stuff like that.  We need to show these guys at USCIS some love for the hard work they have been putting in.  THAT WAS MY WHOLE POINT.  I wasn't offended in any way shape or form.  Not so much in the April thread, but in March there are countless knocks on USCIS and conspiracy theories with no basis ect. and it gets tiring.  Personally I wouldn't have vented and stated my frustration in the same way you did, but that's ok.  To each his own.
 

This was the other poster.  He CLEARLY puts words in my mouth TELLING ME there is no need to get offended when in the FIRST PLACE I WASN'T.  And then telling me this is a place where people can vent and express their feelings.  HUH?? Really??  I never said that LabOz couldn't express feelings.  I simply DISAGREED which does not equal being offended or "making a mountain out of a molehill".....sheesh.  I guess this poster MISSED the whole point about the golden rule.  *sigh*  

 

I admit I should have just ignored the poster as he/she misread my whole post. (Saying I was offended, making a mountain out of a molehill. *sigh*)  Point again, (and perhaps that was my fault for not being clear enough) things can get misinterpreted on a message board whether we like it or not.  That is what really irked me, not your original comment.  It irked me that I couldn't just make a well thought out comment without someone coming in and THEN MAKING A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT.  That's the last I'm going to say about this whole incident.  Hopefully we can all learn from this exchange and just be happy with our fellow thread mates who are getting their approvals.          

You need a hug Cruise77?  You cant let sleeping dogs lie huh? Haha 

Relax before you have a stroke, it isn't serious enough of an issue.  

You keep getting excited about the poor girls comment when there is no reason to get excited.

Let it go and let this die already haha.

Technically yes and no. We got informed mail today that looks suspiciously like an NOA2 so I am gonna say yes we did get our NOA2. I just have not updated our timeline until Chris goes to pick up the mail and we know for sure. We are still waiting for the mailman to deliver mail. Waiting Waiting Waiting it is what we do best is it not.......LOL

Fingers crossed for you!   You've been waiting soooo long!

3 words, a wonderful feeling : 

we got approved today 😍

Just got a call back from a tier 2 officer ( luckily we didn't have to wait 6 more hours) and he told us we got approved today. 

It still makes me wonder why we got a second noa1 but at this point I'm just happy beyond measure! 

Thanks to everyone who tried to help me. I hope you all will be with your loved ones soon.

Congrats!  Our received date is April 7th...hopefully we receive ours soon.

Aww, sorry, just pulling your leg. You know I think your Spanish is awesome :)

 

@Jasmayne Yay, congrats! :jest: Really happy you got good news. Who knows? Maybe they noticed they had screwed up and were like "Uh oh... Hurry up, grab their case and see if we can approve them ASAP" :lol:

Ouch you called in the middle of the day it sounds like hence the long queue.  Hope you get some good news!

They called me back.  The wait was about 90 minutes.  Could not help one bit.  Kept telling me about the wait times etc... Said it could take another 69 days with a receipt date of April 11 and NOA1 of April 15.  Spoke to supervisor and got the same.  Almost lost it.  They said they will send request to CSC and I will hear from them in 15 days or less.  I also wrote one of my Senators.
