:dance: :dance::dance: APPROVED! :dance::dance::dance:

Wow! What a great feeling!!! I just got logged on and was checking my email and while I was reading a different message, in popped a new message from USCIS at 7pm! Who would think the are working at VSC at 7pm!! Obviously they didn't read my rant on page 16.

But what a feeling really. I immediately called Jocelyn but I was so emotional I found I hard to even say the words. Who would think that a simple little email could make a person feel so good. I last checked my email and the USCIS web site before I left work at 5pm and nothing, so I thought here we go through another weekend with no updates.

What a ride. I know we are not done but right now I'm the happiest guy in the world, or at least in South Carolina :) .

I don't know how it happened, but somehow a 105 pound Filipina found a way to destroy my defenses and enrich my life in ways I will never adequately be able to express to her.

Good luck to everybody else and thank you VSC. I will only speak your praises from now on (fingers crossed). Really I think they approved me because I compared them favorably to the CSC in my signature pictures. :lol:

CONGRATULATIONS!!

I just wanted to take a moment to share my joy. :dance:

I logged into my email this morning to find, quite unexpectedly, an NOA2! I called Aey this morning and surprised her at work. She started cheering, crying, and certainly had the attention of everyone in the office. I know how she feels! This is certainly I will be back in Thailand with her in about 19 days, and we really didn't think this would happen until closer to (or even after) my trip. Now, I can take her the paperwork she will need in person!

Congratulations to everyone else who has received NOA2! It looks like things are moving faster now :thumbs:

:thumbs: OH my GOSH CONGRATULATIONS... Frank & Rinso :thumbs:

I always get excited when I see someone approved... but NOW that it is SEPT. filers... everytime I read an approval, tears build up in my eyes (or as my SO says - my eyes get all leaky and we don't know why <grin>)... I think I am more emotional for the Sept. filers because it means we might be getting closer and closer... (well if we had filed in vermont anyway LOL)....

AGAIN huge congrats.....

have a GREAT day

Tracy

Especially from CSC! I must admit that every time someone gets approved I hurriedly check to see if they filed at Vermont or California and am always a little disappointed when I see Vermont! I'm very excited that September filers are being approved, but disheartened that CSC seems to have ground to a halt! ~sighs~
