Thanks hon! I really hope for the rest of us it comes soon.. As happy as I am to see other people getting on with their applications, it makes my stomach so tight in knots when I see how everyone else has progressed except us. Please don't take that the wrong way everyone! I truly am happy for everyone else!! Just annoyed that it's not happened for us yet.

Having said that! Looks like we've been touched today! No word as to what that may mean.. I swear I will SCREAM! if they come back at me and say that they are now missing something else!

Fingers X'd!!!!!

Halle, keeping a happy face, as ever! :D

It's really hard to try to keep optimistic, believe me, I know! Just hang in there.. I'm with VSC as well.. I have now rung them like two times - perhaps giving them a quick call might help just to see what's going on? Explain that others filed after you have already had notice, etc. Might get them to investigate why yours hasn't moved at all. Good luck, at any rate!

I know what you mean. We were among the earliest CSC October approvals (even now, I think nearly half are still waiting), but at least for people who filed in the first week of October, we were one of the last to get our NOA1. And that was when Southern California was having those wildfires so I was panicking wondering if our petition was lost in the ether! At least the touch means they are working on it and it is not lost in the ether. It may well be your approval, and if it's not, it is probably coming soon.
