"Assumptions" is our family name in VJ 😂😂😂

 

if i I see a lot more of weirdos happening it can mean something. But because we cleared all of April, I don't think it will affect much.

 

@The Squirrel

and the silent noa2 cases won't affect anything in a bad way if not in a good way of jumping maybe a 5% (cause only a little part of that maintenance day could actually show an affect with most likely having 150s unupdated) would only affect a day or two toward a good way of the review and that wouldn't much affect the result as long as we don't see it getting worse in the future.

i think we need to start a dictionary with all the words we use here and the actual meaning hahahaha

I was out for 2 days and feel lost and will have to catch up a looooooooot

I saw a girl on Instagram from the UK (same as my fiance) whose application was sent in mid June and her case was accepted in late September. And her flight is booked and everything and she's moving here shortly. Whaaat?! 

 

We got our NOA1 June 20 and still nothing yet. No word. Makes me wonder if I should be worried? I've been struggling with feeling bummed out a lot lately since it seems like it's dragging on. Watching the estimate go from September to October, November, December... Every week that passes it jumps out a week. Makes it feel like it's not moving forward. It has been even harder than I imagined it would be. But it looks like most people are waiting still so it's not just us? Sorry for like rambling, I was just so shocked! Hoping we didn't do something horribly wrong to make it take so long just to hear something... Anything. She is so lucky! Jeez! 

Was this case expedited?

Yes, it is an expedite. Either her fiance is currently an active duty personnel going for deployment or he has a medical emergency. 

 

A handful of the June filers were just approved mid November.

 They're leaving in december 22nd they have all the expedite and cost me as much as my own medical exam... per cat...

 

I look at them and whisper : if you run away now, I'll charge you...

 

also adding: California doesn't ask for anything from the cats! 

 

I think because I'm not neutered they're more concerned about me... (see it's always about the babies) 🤷‍♀️

What company did you use??? 

I have 1 cat and they are asking for £1000+ 😐

That includes pick up to LHR, 1 night in kennels, custom crate, preflight medical, passport, flight, and handling at BWI.

At this point I'm like, does it even matter if one case was approved each month? 

 

What are we going to say, hey dude you approved that.. I mean we know 3500 others aren't approved... and this thought gives me a good nights sleep every night..

We are carrying them with us, two cats in cabin. Delta let's up to 4 animals per flight in the main cabin. 

 

I think I'm going to pay 150 or 200$ per cat  for the flight.

 

and for the flight I just need a health certificate and microchip certificate. 

california doesn't ask for anything for cats but it is better to have rabies shots, cause it is mandatory for dogs and some animal inspectors ask for cats too.

May be cheaper if you go via Dublin or Paris. You should be able to take cats in the cabin from those airports. In UK, they treat all animals as Cargo. Ireland you can also do POE pre clearance.

Are they making you have a titer test for rabies? Cause UK like Japan is pretty hard to pass that and take extremely expensive, however I didn't do it cause my cat is not coming back to japan and after I explained it they said it's ok.

I didn't know that... I'm really lucky about this cat issue then !! One my cats is Scottish fold and they don't let them in cargo!

I mean, I wouldn't be so mad if I didn't send my other half the application and some treats in a care package back IN APRIL. He mailed it on June 28th. 😒

I've been waiting aaaaaaaaaaaaaaages. 😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒

 

I'm gonna throttle him when I see him... Then hug him, I suppose 😂
