So I’ve just dropped Will back to the airport, hence why I have been quiet on here, and missed a lot of posts. It was his first time to the UK, so I wanted him to enjoy his time here. Not sure if I we will see one another before I move. 

 

I am so eager to see more approvals!

Well, I haven't been on here in a few days. So much so that I'm not sure I'll ever get caught up on all the pages of convo that I'm behind on now. :P

 

Anyway - both my fiancé and I have had some stuff going on that's made things tough lately, and it was hard to focus on how slowly things have been dragging for us all with this part of the process. The holidays are tough this year due to some recent losses within my family and social circle this year, so I've been relatively blue for a little bit lately. BUT.............

 

Saturday morning, we got the biggest surprise ever. WE'RE APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!

 

Paul actually found out before me and called me. I expected to be the one to tell him. :P He has the Case Tracker app on his phone, which notified him immediately; we were approved on the 1st and the app notified him Saturday morning (the 2nd). I never got my email or text notification, which I sent the form for, so I recommend downloading the app if you haven't already.

 

I almost wish our convo had been recorded, because it went a little something like this.... *clears throat dramatically*:

 

*my phone rings early Saturday morning before I've finished my coffee*

Me: Hey...

Paul: (before I've finished my greeting) BABE. BABE!!! MALLORY!!!

Me: *jumps from couch in a panic because he sounds freaked out, nearly spills aforementioned coffee* WHAT?? What happened??

Paul: WE GOT APPROVED!!!!

Me: .......................

Paul: Hello?

Me: That's not funny.

Paul: I'm serious!

Me: ........... *looking for coffee*

Paul: *groans* HANG ON.

Me: ............

Paul: ............

Me: *receives text message with screenshot of the Case Tracker app* OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD.

Paul: SEE.

Me: ..........

Paul: What???

Me: Are we sure that's our receipt number? What if you put the wrong one and this is someone else getting approved.

Paul: ............. hold on.

Me: *digs around for our NOA1 hard copy* We need to match the numbers. *reads off number on the NOA1*

Paul: IT MATCHES.

Me ........ Look it up online.

Paul: Babe.

Me: DO IT.

Paul: *logs into USCIS website and enters receipt number manually*

Me: *receives screenshot of his computer screen saying we have been approved* OH MY GOD WE'RE APPROVED. *immediately bursts into tears*

I'm just going to make a quick scan of June 12 cases only.

Cause if that 's the received date, it would mean they actually updated some 12/1 s in the weekend

My sweet darling @Naes

Can you please tell me what number starts for June 5 and I will run those scans?

The one I use is actually called Case Tracker.  There is another one called USCIS App but I like Case Tracker better.  I'm on an iPhone.  Not sure is Android uses the same naming conventions.

NOA1: June 23

 

If you have an Iphone, search for USCIS and there's an app called Case Tracker.

 

If you have Android, search for Spinach
