Congrats Annette!! I'm so happy for you! I'm still trying to be patient and hearing news like that makes it a bit better

Awww thanks so much u2rsobad, and everyone elese who was kind enough to reply, you guys really are terrific.

If only stupid USCIS could process stuff as fast as the NVC, eh? Then we could all be doing the happy dance together now... Well we will be doing that soon, so keep the faith and know that I pray for approvals every day.

COME ON USCIS! Get Movin' !

Ever Hopeful,

Annette

Its been time!!!!! I really wish i could honestly see what the reason for the waiting is..Im sure there has to be a reason but cmon, keep us a little better informed!!!!!!!!

I am going to try to reprogram my brain to accept that I will not see an approval until the end of this month. The operative word is I am going to TRY. I think it will keep me from blowing a gasket. Of course I am still hoping it will be sooner. At the end of this month I will be at 128 days since filing my petition. Hopefully the VJ timeline does not increase.

Were getting there!.

waaaaa jkfgh duj O meu Deus!!!! I've been patient, I really have. I stopped checking USCIS website daily (3x daily that is, lol) I even stopped having the May filers new posts delivered to my blackberry, I got a 2nd job, took up a hobby; all in hopes of easing my peace of mind... you know the whole watching the teapot idea.. mmm not working!

So now i just dont know what to do. I mean obviously nothing, just wait; that's the whole method behind this tourture, right. I broke and called USCIS today. I informed the man that I had been sent 2 NOA1s (you can only imagine my intense happiness followed by extreme sadness the day I saw that 2nd letter from USCIS only to find out it was just a duplicate NOA1...that was a bad day) and do you know what his response was..... "NOA, what's that?" I said, thank you sir, goodbye. Perhaps calling it an NOA is VJ lingo but I just assumed anyone who had any idea whatsoever as to what was going on would at least kow what i was referring to. and he did not and informed me that they were processing folks from Feb or something (i stopped listening at that point).

OKAY --> so let us channel good energy (inhale exhale) -- give them speedy hands to process our cases quickly. Congrats to everyone with recent approvals, it gives hope to the rest of us. And goooooooooo May!!! (I've got spirit fingers going if you could see me)

sorry for the rant, thanks for listening folks, luv you all

The average CSC approval rate is 120 days from time it is mailed, ours timed out at 135 days. So if you are less than 120 days, figure on waiting a touch longer. Be patient, it will come. Our petition was not the strongest, yet we did not get an RFE, and we received approval. So just hold on a little longer. I did call a few times, but it did not help, just gave me grief and stress because of the lack of care we received from CSC. Good luck

Congrats on all you fellow May filers that have received your approvals, for the rest of you, just hold tight!

*sigh* Friday will be the 135th day since I mailed our petition...I hope I hear something by then My estimated date says Sept 16th. I can't believe there were no approvals yesterday or today - what is up CSC and VSC??? We need some more already!!! You started the week out good, but let's get some more going! I'm sending out big huge super strong May filer approval vibes....

Approvals are on the way-----we must be patient ones. Think about this----we will look back on this journey---it will be a lovely memory and the anguish of waiting will have disappeared---kinda like childbirth!!!

Best rant so far.....funny wise. I thoroughly enjoyed this post really funny. Anyway, let us hope that CSC & VSC will crank out some more approvals before the week is done. Good luck and hang in there partner.
