Good morning everyone.
 
Thursdays are good days for mail
Looking forward to a day full of good news!

I'd probably be lurking/posting more because I think I'm currently obsessed with getting our NOA2. It's been 127 days for us since NOA1 and it's getting to me. Didn't know this waiting could be that big a deal. Sorry for venting out, but I'm sure some of you feels the same way lol but still gotta stay positive!!! 

No NVC yet. We just got approved two days ago.
 
My fiance' lives in Bryansk so, Moscow is much closer

Country: Angola 
NOA1: April 2nd 
RFE

Hi there everyone! I am new here and had been reading the updates lately of all the approvals. I am happy for all of you who got your NOA2.
I am filing for my fiancé in the Netherlands. My NOA1 receipt date is April 6 and notice date April 12. Still no NOA2 :(. We are feeling really discouraged. Cases around us keep getting approved though not us.
 I read that some of you called and asked to speak to tier 2 and had luck getting updates on your case.  So I took a chance and called today and asked to speak with tier 2 and requested for expedite. The tier 2 person said the only update is that my case is pending, has not been assigned to anyone yet. And that I didn't qualify for expedite. Idk what to do! I kind of feel helpless. Any advice on what to do? Of course trying to patiently wait. But the fact that he said our case has not been assigned has me so worried and uneasy. 
I would appreciate any advice you can give us.
Thank you! 

Haha yeah good luck to everyoneeeee I feel so full of happiness and joy, I just want to send the most positive vibes to all 😁😄  I keep my fingers crossed for everyone who's still waiting, good news are coming, and the end is right around the corner! 

Thank you so much! Yes you're right I haven't been as happy since my fiance left 7 months ago... Today is a greatest day so far! I wish to all of us here to be as happy ASAP!!! God knows how much everyone here needs that. People here are the most strong and patient ones by far 😀 and great news are coming every day, I am so happy for everyone who's getting approved too, like I can finally feel what they feel. In a couple short months all of us will be with our loved ones, and that is like a happy end of a fairy tale. I'm amazed by how strong can be love, in relation to every couple here, when two loving hearts are separated for so long time - nobody can really understand how hard it is but us... How strong that love is to overcome hard times like this damn endless USCIS process... I wish endless love to every single couple here, and may our patience be fully rewarded!!! We deserve it.

It's highly likely that there's more than one or two approvalsa day. The app only works based on people who have the app and registered their case in the app.
 
But I'm confident the approval numbers per day is a lot higher than what the app tells me.

I post approvals from the USCIS tracker app as they come in.
 
I don't havea way to differentiate between VJ and non-VJ members. But when I post it, it tells people ti check the status of their case.

You know It really doesn't matter, it gives some hope when you see that things are moving, no matter if they are VJ member approvals or not... Some of us are not able to do the tracker checks so these updates are just keeping the faith up

Good luck to my Ukrainian friends !
  

Congratulations to everyone who had some noa2 news today! 
 
Ive tried to keep my mind occupied today instead of obsessively checking the app, feeling very down and fed up of waiting! Fingers crossed for some good news soon.  

So, I checked my case status today. I have deliberately not checked for a while and deleted the app from my phone. I think I was getting a little obsessive about trying to glean whatever information I could from various sources. I am an engineer. So, it goes with the territory. In any case, the USCIS site said my case was approved two days ago, 14 Aug. Hopefully the hard copy will arrive soon. 

me  too... i spend my first two years with my grandparents near Kiev...greatgrandmother saw me, so my first words were in Polish, because she spoke her native language )) so then my parents have had to teach me Russian ))) ... i love Ukraine

Been to Kiev twice to visit my fiance when she was there - May and July 2017.  I really like it there.

Congrats!!  It is the best feeling in the world when you see the approval!!

My fiance' is from Ukraine as well. She now lives in Bryansk due to all the troubles in Donetsk (her hometown). I've been to Kiev and found it to be a lovely place. I really enjoyed my time there. All together I have been to Ukraine once and Russia three times. We are waiting to see which embassy the NVC will send our application to. Moscow would be the most convenient for her. We will see.

Good Morning to all.
 
I want to congratulate all that have gotten their NOA2 in the last few days.  I am happy for you and very jealous of you.  I hope the rest of the journey for you and your loved one is a smooth one and you get to be together as soon as possible. 

Very well said!
This site and process prove that people are just people in the end, no matter where you are from.
When I'm talking to any of you, I don't care if you are from the US, the Philippines, UK, Jamaica or Timbuktu... We all have the same problems and concerns... Well, except for things that are country specific 😝
 
Hoping for another good day full of good news here. Who knows? Even Tracker might be fixed

Congrats to all that have received approvals! I am so happy for you all and wish you the best of luck in the future!
