Good job Aly!! Hope it was a breeze going through so that when you go back for the move you won't have to feel so stressed out about it!!

Have a great time with Jeremy

Between the two of you I think there was enough unnecessary worry to power a small city for a couple days.

Glad she's past all that now and can focus on the good stuff.

I thought I was a worrier, then I "met" Debz and Aly!!!! World class worriers!!!! They make me look relaxed!!!

Hey CBR - any updates on your status??? I want your NOA2!!!

[GeordieWife 1]

Hey Debz.....congratz on your interview! I know it's late, I've been packing. I'm moving this weekend!

Aly....glad to have you in the states for a bit. Hope all goes smoothly while you're here. You two have fun.

I'll be off the radar a bit because of the move...to update everyone on our case: Peter is waiting for the army to send him his discharge papers (they failed to send them since December...they posted them the other day with a rush on it)...then he can finish his packet 3 and send it off. I'm still hoping for a March wedding even if it's a courthouse one. Everyone cross your fingers but don't hold your breath! All for now.

Congrats on any Noa2's I've been away for a bit! TTFN friends....I'll post more soon!

Nope Julez, no news. I called uscis recently and was given the same line. It's in security checks, name checks, extended review blah blah blah. They all mean the same thing. I'm hopeful that it will be soon. It's got to be any time now. I sure hope they have foolproof systems so they don't have me confused with someone who has a record or something like that.

Now this is weird. I called USCIS yesterday and went through the prompts to talk to a "live human being" and she told me that my petition was being worked on. I said - no - I received a letter from the National Visa Center that says my petition was approved and within a week it would be sent to London. She said - and I quote - "Oh, someone must not have updated the system." (AND YOUR POINT IS?) So, she put me on hold and when she came back on the line, she said that they would mail out a duplicate NOA2. Duplicate? You didn't send me the initial NOA2.

Really, they don't know anything. CBR, I think that you should DEMAND to talk to someone who knows something.

When I looked on the USCIS site, they have updated it to say:

*** DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL ***

Has anyone gotten anything like this?

They really don't have their shat together.

Jeraly - so glad to hear that you made it to my side of the pond. Everything will go just fine. Deep breaths. Remind Jeremy to bend the knees (you'll know why) during the ceremony. Enjoy. Waiting for lots of pictures.

CBR - seriously - kick some a$$!

Mox - you've been very quiet. Are you sick? LOL

Good luck GordieLover on the move - looking forward to having you back.

given that it's pretty likely to be side effects from my vaccinations, no, it's not going to affect your standing on the list

in other words, you're still due in April

medical went fine... though feeling ####### didn't help; first blood pressure test in AGES that wasn't perfect

now I am at home, resting up in my bed; I went via work but they said they didn't want me and I should be at home, resting up in my bed, so here I yam
