ATTENTION JULY FILERS!

[a-jeanne 2]

Thanks for the well wishes for Cassie.

CONGRATULATIONS English Muffin! I'm so happy for you!

wishing your daughter a speedy recovery!!

Thank you. I am taking her in for another chest x-ray this afternoon. I am praying that her lungs are starting to clear. They have her on two of the strongest antibiotics possible which in turn is causing her much stomach upset. She is only 9 years old. I hope that we have been through the worst and that she will show some signs of improvement.

Thanks again for your well wishes!

Mini suggestion for Debz:

On the spreadsheet would it be an idea to have the total days be from NOA1 or have the NOA1-NOA2 days to be from the received date? If the two can be cross referenced then those of us who are still waiting can see how our total number of days compares to the number of days taken for those who already got approved...

Did that even make sense? I hope so!! Or at least I hope you can figure it out

[Rob & Jin 0]

makes sense to me, noa1 recieved date - noa-2 received date( as printed on hard copies) days in total to get it.

[Jeraly 4]

Yeah - just one way or another so it is easier to compare Of course that might not be such a good thing...

suggested changing total days as calculating from NOA1 date before but was told to leave as it is. Which would you prefer changed. Would be easier to change "noa1-noa2" to "day recieved-NOA2"

You may already be aware of this. But, you can see the type of information you're referring to by refining the search parameters in the VJ K1 statistics.

A very handy device!

[Jeraly 4]

Ummm... to be quite honest I am not that fussy - I think the general consensus of opinion is that the service centers go by date received so that might be perceived as more accurate... either way though I think the days should be consistent just for ease of comparisons (and so I can cry myself to sleep when I realise how far behind I am!!!)

[Ursa Tripudio 2]

excited for all you guys whove been touched nothing on ours yet , come on USCIS give us our approval before I leave for China tomorrow

Have a good trip and a wonderful time.

I envy you. Work prevents me from returning to China until May.

There are so many things I miss (especially Li, of course): Like; family events, real Chinese food, the culture, and the natural beauty of Liaoning.

Next spring, I will go with Li to Guangzhou. After the interview, we will do some traveling in Schezuan province. It will be a great summer and this time, I will bring her back with me!!!

Awww. Don't cry.

Seeing people getting the NOA2 in this forum is very encouraging.

It makes me feel better (and we're 5 days behind you).

Keep your chin up, it will happen for you very soon!

Are any of you planning to go through JFK to get a temporary EAD? Ny NOA1 was issued Aug 1st, so I expect my interview around end Feb/early March (hopefully). Our wedding isn't until May 31st (Debs, now we are date twins!), so I am thinking of going out for good straight after the interview. If I get the temp EAD, I am hoping to pick up some waitressing work, even if it is only for 8-10 weeks. I know that the temp EAD will run out before the 1 year EAD arrives, but I have some connections with a couple of restaurants, so hopefully it'll be ok, I can have a break, then start again.

Does anyone know of someone going through JFK and getting refused the EAD? I would hate to go out early, then not be able to work for 6 months, when I could have been a bit more patient and waited until closer to the wedding.

We are going to try that route too! I hope it works. I have heard it is the only airport that can offer a work permit, but I do not know much more about the process.

Yeah, my SO is coming through JFK. My friend just had her fiance come through last month and he said no problems with getting the stamp! She says waiting for the SSN is the problem!
