I got my NOA1 on 4/12/07 and the check was cashed on 4/20/07. Nothing after that... No updates, no "touches", nada. Fortunately I am going back to Brasil again in August to see her, I cant wait for that! But, my god, this process is painfull!

Funny thing is, I kept telling her before we started our papers as that its a v e r y long and painfull process and it will be difficult. Now, Im the one freaking out! haha

Oh well, I guess I am just venting... ;)

I think California is a bit slow these days...sorry for the wait.

We had to wait 72 days for our NOA2 (our case was transferred to CSC from TSC after less than a week).

Try to relax...

My visa took 11 months to be issued...

The problem was not even the NOA2, it took about 80 days

The problem was: they lost my papers so NVC never got it and USCIS didnt have it anymore..

So, relax and plan your things, talk to her a lot, everything is gonna be fine...

Visa Approved!

Removal of Conditions

21/03 - VSC Received it

24/03 - NOA 1

27/03 - Check Cashed

08/04 - Biometrics received

July 8th - Approved

Welcome to the infinite parking lot that is CSC. Current processing times are 108 days (average), so a bit of waiting yet. It is the worst feeling, though, because you're basically afforded no information on your case.

Same w/ us. No updates, touches, not even a kiss after they cashed our check. Hang in there and good luck.

10Yr GC arrived 07/02/09 - Naturalization is next

The drama begins - again!

And now the drama ends - they took the Green card . . .

Thanks for all the encouraging responces!

Well, we are now at 90+ days. So yesterday, I sent a snail mail to my congresswoman. That got me even more fired up, so I called her also. Of course I got some call center flunky type who said she would call me some time this week or next week.

The waiting continues!
