Waiting for a NOA2 from CSC for your I-129F?

[Jeraly 4]

Seems it doesn't apply with delta either if she is in the cabin... booking my flight in the summer is going to be a nightmare..

Thank you, STP, for the list again

The Chinese website is running pretty much true to VJ. The ratio is about the same...There were eight VSC'ers, August /September NOA1 dates and two CSC'ers with July NOA1 dates, posting approvals this last week that we could see.

Congrats to "LB & DR" - they got NOA2 approved by CSC - so that's 13 this year so far!!!

Interesting to know that. On the Vietnamese language website, there seems to be an disproportional number of VSC filers, who are moving somewhat faster than CSC filers. This is causing a slight amount of tension lately, but we are working it out. I feel we are so lucky, we can understand each other very well (both linguistically and personally), and don't get into a full-blown argument over this, as other couples have had the misfortune of doing.

I can't give you such specific numbers, unfortunately. Hang in there, everybody! Like the song says, "Our day will come!"

At least on United (can you tell I fly United a lot?) the pet embargo does not apply in cabin.

Oh, I'm glad to know this, thanks for sharing. Definitely puts to rest any thoughts that VJ just has a bad sampling of filers. Something's definitely going on at CSC.

Thanks for the new list STP - but sheesh <lol> at 5 CSC approvals for the week, and me sitting at number 195 - that would be like 39 bloomin' weeks from now for an NOA2... I really hope that they pick up the pace (back to the 20-30+) they were doing pre-Xmas, or maybe they have and just a stack of peeps haven't updated their timeline (the ones that think us number crunchers are nuts LOL)...

I STILL have my thoughts and fingers crossed that everyone who filed up to the end of September will see their NOA-2 by mid February....

have a GREAT day folks

you're all welcome

and I am SURE that CSC will not continue at this pace... don't get discouraged, people; it's demoralising, I know, but so far it's a TEMPORARY slow-down, and I think we have every reason to be confident that it will not continue for long

*praying that I'm right*

I hope so too!! I need good news and distractions at the moment!! My chilled out nature while waiting for NOA2 has diminished and now I am sat feeling ansy all the time about the wedding, about the move - I feel like I am going crazy and I just don't know how to make myself feel better - I know I am making the right choice and I awnt to move to the US but I just feel really lame and stupid!! I think maybe post-Feb once the wedding is out of the way and we can start looking at building our life together (getting a place to live etc!!) then I might settle down a bit as I will have somethign to focus on but in the meantime... I don't want to feel this nervous for the next five-six months!!!

Thanks for keeping us all up to date with the list, STP. I appreciate it. I'll be happy when you can take our name off (if only to give you one less to keep up with....hahaha..... ).

Uh I don't know how to feel about being # 1..... I'd rather be # done, but that certainly isn't happening very quickly.

I've called but I keep hearing the same story...."on an officer's desk."

I'm thinking maybe they should try looking up his butt....maybe that's where it's been misplaced....

Of course I didn't suggest that....I get the distinct impression those people don't have a sense of humor..... Is it because they live in California? (just kidding.....)

I certainly don't want to hold the record for the longest @ # 1.

Maria's ready to come home....

Ding ding...opening bell for CSC, who just arrived to work 15 minutes ago. Let's hope that all those approval stamps that were eaten by wild hyenas last week have been replaced.

They were eaten by pancake-bunnies.

John (just above), when you call and talk with one of the ImmigOffs, be sure to have them send a polite-yet-insistent e-mail to the officer up whose butt your file has been... uh, on whose desk your file purportedly is. The rectums at CSC should be not for files, but for wildcats -- hungry, and never declawed. Si, man.

Haha - yeah well my OH is from Cali and seriously - he is fine but have you ever dealt with Immigration at LAX?!?!?! They are the worst I swear... no sense of humour, like robots... have really scared me about going through immigration next month :/

Not a California thing, just an immigration thing.

I think you'll find Californian's pretty laid back, especially the more you get out of LA. Come on up north some, we're all downright chill.
