Yeah you 2 got this. The wait to be together again really is the worst part of this whole thing. It sounds a lot like my Fiancée and i too. we started talking November 2018. I had planned to go to colombia in 2019 but i wasn't able to get time off of work, and then covid hit and shut everything down so we finally got to see each other in December 2021. it also took us a couple years to finally get to see each other hahaha. The anxiety is real though, i know the waiting and being unsure of what was going to happen really started to take a toll on us both. she was always the one who kept me focused and motivated. But like you said, if we can wait 700 or more days to finaly get to see each other, than this 400 or so days might seem like a eternity but i know you got this and i know you will be getting the good news super soon and then you and your fiancé will be togther again.

Gosh, it's crazy, right? Never thought I'd go through this. We also faced the pandemic, restrictions, cancelled flights, change of plans, immigration in a 3rd country, visa requirements, even TWO hurricanes... Sometimes it felt like everything was against us but we didn't give up and I'd do everything again. And we'll look back at this and see it only made us stronger.

To wait and endure all this just to be together, true definition of love. And well, I know we'll have so so many challenges ahead of us, but this is a great sign we will go through them together. I'm talking about you two as well! Not every couple has such a strong relationship that would endure all of this. I'm glad your fiancé has kept you strong, I have moments of weakness and he always lifts me up as well, and vice-versa. Guess this makes us all a great team! haha 

[BriannJacke 42]

Haha you are absolutely correct! I do believe that if 2 people are willing to go through so much endure so many heartaches and trails just to be together, then that is the definition of true love. and no one can ever question how real the relationship is. And i am lucky to have my fiancée who always makes sure that i try and stay positive because there were times i never thought it would actually happen. But one night i was just laying down thinking about everything, and i knew when i asked myself if all of it was worth it and i said hell yes. Because i can't imagine life without her and my step daughter  I don't want to be with anyone else. So i told her no matter what that we will be together even if I have to give up everything here and move to Colombia haha And like you said, i would do everything all over again and never change anything.

Today's numbers [April 6th, 2023]
Sorry, took too long today. CaseTracker kept having server errors. Maybe it has to do with the USCIS system maintenance, so take these numbers today with a pinch of salt.

Not sure, but I heard it’s a week or less to get the approval notice. It does take time for NVC to contact you though, no one knows for sure.
