:dance: Congratulations ! :dance:

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Thanks! hmm1, I noticed that the NVC received your papers about a week after your NOA2. Did you contact them, or did they notify you? I'm curious since this is the next step for me. I was reading in the Guides section to wait around two weeks before contacting the NVC about our papers. Also, I read somewhere on the NVC site to wait about three weeks ( I think I read this in the FAQ section).

Thanks so much everyone for the congratulations postings! I'm so glad I found this place!

Hi there! When we got our approval, we started contacting NVC (thru phone and email inquiries) a week after. Your case won't sit very long at NVC stage unless they need to run a name/background check or something. Exactly two weeks after, NVC replied to my e-mail inquiry about the status of our case and they informed me that it was already forwarded to Manila consulate. And oh, my fiance also received a letter (snail mail) from them and informed him when they got our case.

:thumbs: You're almost there!

OMG! Earlier today I checked the USCIS site for our petition status. I finally saw a touch. Then, later this evening I checked my e-mail and got the NOA2 approval. Seems like CSC is really moving on the March folks. I'm SO happy right now. Just called my fiancee and she's also elated! Thanks to all. Good luck to everyone here with their petitions as well!
