You are scaring me !!!

But I dont blame you, Melannie's way cuter

Poor Sarah hasn't ventured on here much

Perhaps i should send her Melannie and Hannah's way

Guys, u just crack me up. Feels good to have such a group along for the ride!

Mellanie, u did say it all! Not only they are not approving us fast enough, now they don't even bother to share the "official" processing times... Which are bogus anyway
Let it out, sister, don't hold it in!

Tarantula I read your reply and had a flash back to Dave's B-day. He spent half of it Skyping with me... Oh those special moments in the cyber space. Hope your package will get there soon!

Nat (Natasha???) welcome to the waiting room . May I ask where in FL are u moving to?

did you read the other thread about the slow down, someone phoned and found out they are approved but the system is wack and its not sending out or updating approvals?

Are you kidding?? This is awful … Maybe we are already approved and no one is going to found out until the system is back to work?!
Well it could be worse, at least they are approving people!

Hannah, thanks for the info! I missed that one.

Still up sweetheart?

And here I was checking Igor's all day and wondering why there were no approvals reported. It must've happened today!

Aha... like a zombie... I'm telling ya, with this time difference thing I pretty much live at nights. At least I work from home so can have a luxury to sleep in in the am. It's almost 3 am here... What time do you have?

Hi Hannah+Vito
I am delighted to see this message, which thread were you referring? I hope that's the case and they did not really stop working on our cases... thanks by the way I am on April thread haha... (but I wish they can make the system work again...)
Cloe

~Ana
just got off the phone with John, and the only thing we ware taking about was the small amount of approvals from this week!
now we got the answer to our questions!
Oh my God Ana, I’m praying to God that we already are approved… it would be a dream!

~Hannah
Forgot to thank you for the info!
Thank you so much!!! Made me calm down a bit!

~Ana
Its 01:49 am here….

You guys are so cute . I certanly hope that there is the approval for you two stuck in the malfunctioning system! I guess we'll find out tomorrow. Am going to bed now, so good night

Sweet dreams sweetheart !
See you tomorrow!!!

Here Ana;

OMG

I hope this is truly the case for some of us!! I know we're getting an RFE, but even seeing that would make me feel 10000 times better. I would LOVE to get the actual approval while I'm in NC again - I'll be down there for almost 3 weeks in Sept, so they have no effing excuse

I really hope some of us are jus glitched in the system guys! Here's hoping!!

<3 Jen

you are welcome guys, it made me feel better too!

Hey Ana, hope u guys get approved soon

Thank you, John . And I hope you guys get an early interview date! By the way, we'll be going to Olenka's home town sometime in September while Dave is here .
MAY!

Morning/afternoon May
Well its Friday already and still no NOA2 for any of us!

Gordon do you remember what you said last week? I think it had something to do with dance moves!

Melannie
How are you feeling sweetie?

Morning Ana!!!!!!!

Hey Everybody!

This week was terrible , i am glad to know now that there is a reason for the slow down. Jason wanted to call today anyways, since it has been quite a while. Just to make sure that our file didnt get lost, that is the only thing i am worried about.

I wish i would have more time to participate here . I get a chance every once in a while to read and post a quick hello, but it helps out a lot seeing other people who go through the same s....... It always makes me smile to see yall not lettin your hopes get down. So keep it up and i will try to participate more here.

Hopefully everybody gets approved soon.

Good day !!

I have just read the news that the computer system doesn't work okay. It's not good. Hope it starts working next week.

How much is this going to have an effect on our petitions, Do you think we will have to wait even longer???
God this is torture? It’s hard to stay positive when something like this happens!

Dance moves. I can't remember saying anything about that lol.

Remember this ?

Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between September 5, 2008 and September 13, 2008.

All I can say is

Number 72 on igor's list. I was at 71 this time last week. Is someone pulling pi$$?

I’m so sorry Gordon !

It's very common for California's system not to be working or updating. Happens all the time.

I've not seen or heard of it happening with Vermont tho.

Just remember there are LOADS of petitions out there that we dont see here. When we had a week like this, I used to tell myself that there was at least 20 approvals that day even though we didn't see them. Then i'd go searching others EAC numbers around ours to see who was getting approved.

this is the hardest time for you all. Stay strong.. it's coming!!!

Howdy all. I just found this forum recently and apologize for not saying anything but just did not have anything really to say till now.

I am also a May filer and got the receipt of I-129f from Uscis on May 6. I just got a email sent and went to the uscis website that my I-129f has been approved. I thought I would let y'all know thart they are now doing the May filings and everyone here should be getting the Approvals soon if not already received.

Good luck and God bless everyone.

Oops forgot. I was through the Vermont service center.

Wounderful news!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations

Congrats to our "newbie" Thanks for sharing your joy with us! Hopefully it'll be smooth sailing for you guys from this point on!

Thank y'all very much. I just found this particular forum a couple days ago and had no idea there was a seperate one for May filers. I am from early may so we all should be getting them soon. At least we know they are doing May now.

And yes I expect smooth sailing but I am a eternal optimist. They may as well give it to us as it is gonna happen eventually.

That's all for today sweets ...
Hope you're all having a great day!! And congrats on the approval(s)!

Wow cool! If you happen to go into a resteraunt called 'PYZATA HATA' have a nice time and if you see her, say hello from me

*bangs her head on the desk*

I feel like I wanna flail madly at something...argh




.....I couldn't agree more Gordon

<3 Jen

PS ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHH!! I just saw ANOTHER person with a later NOA1 date than us get approved on the 20th....I'm happy for them, but ARRRRRRRGGGHHHH

CONGRATULATIONS LUCKY TXN!!

APPROVED HERE 2!!!! YESS... ATTENTION MAY FILERS!!! YOUR NOA2 IS COMING..
We received our noa1 on May 5 and Cris sent the approval notice e-mail this morning.. Good luck for everybody!
My heart is beating so fastt!!

Congrats Abe and Verito and thank you so much. We were one day apart on receipt and approved the same day. I knew others in May had to have started getting theirs when I got mine and that means we all will have our approvals coming.

Hey Kim! Got approved today!!!!!!!!!! I'm dancing naked right now!


Joe

Congrats!!! Good luck and God bless.

Jen, glad to see you will be back in the south in September. Should only be a high of 90. I do promise you this, NO SNOW! Make sure that you leave it up there. Wait until we get an inch of snow here and everything shuts down, people wreck their cars and act like the end of world is coming, it is funny. We have one snowplow and it is broken. When they call for snow, avoid the grocery store. Everyone runs out and buys milk and bread. Seriously, you will experience this. I think the CEO's of the milk and bread companies pay of the weathermen to forecast 2 whole inches so they can meet their quarterly quotas. After football practice in the morning we will be back at Jordan Lake forming up the "redneck yacht club." Football got in way this evening. It will be our last big hoorah. Next weekend is our big dove hunt and then hunting season will be in full swing. There might be a cold one in the cooler. Bring some of that high octane Moosehead or LaBatt's down with you.

Ana, it sounds like you have a great trip planned. I wish that I was in Ukraine right now. I say again, I am jealous. It is the time comittments that kept me from being there. Julia keeps saying that she wants me there, but I have to go help her move here, plus deer season in November. What a redneck dream. I hope that she learns how to skin one quickly. LOL. Actually, I will be duck hunting with her uncle when I go back. Hopefully in October.

Let's hope for 40 approvals in the next week, not like the crap we saw this week. I really need to talk to them about their fire insurance. I have a feeling my petition is in the cafeteria under a table leg to keep it from wobbling.

Take it easy and keep the faith.

Its RUSS here Joe , is skype still on as you are dancing? and you know USCIS monitors these

congratulations by the way from me and kim

Well it's warm enough where you are right now to dance naked ... Congratulations Saratoga-man! I'm happy for you.

I just woke up ... good morning all! Have a wonderful weekend ...

Morning/afternoon May

Verito and Abraham
Congratulations sooooooo happy fort both of you!!!!!!!!

Wei and Joe
Congratulations !!!!
I hope your girl was seeing you dancing yesterday ?!

Sandra
Morning to you!!
The party that we have being waiting for just started !!!!!!!
I’m so happy

Afternoon all. Hope everyone has a lovely day.

The sun is shining here in North Scotland. I'm off out to see if I can get another freckle.

Good morning May...

Joe.. CONGRATULATIONS buddy!!!! I hope you're still dancing!

Jenni, Gordon..all those waiting.. I rememeber the weekends being so difficult when we were in the 'home stretch' and just wanting to be through with them and onto Monday so we could perhaps see progress. I know this is a super difficult time for those of you still waiting on your approvals but hold strong...this is the worst part... but it means it's coming!!!

[size="3"][/size] I want to say Hi to Everyone! Have a great weekend !! Now I see some of couples got their approvals on Friday. Yes lets hope next week will bring more approvals

OK...I have done some breathing and feel better...

A HUGE Congrats to those who got approved! Luckytxn, Abe n Verito and Wei and Joe!!! I hope I didn't sound as though i was not happy for you in last nights post. I just know we have an RFE coming, which will hold up the petition, and I just want them to send it and get it done with That and Montreal is SOOO SLOWW!

Steelman: LMAO...I can't WAIT to see the freakout over an inch of snow...I'm gonna be out running around in shorts, laughing at everyone...I won't be bringing any with me, dont worry...we usually dont' see it until the end of November anyway. I'm hoping for a beautiful autumn though It's my favorite time of the year. I would love to bring some Canadian Beer with me, because all you guys have in NC is Canadian and Blue *gags* - I'm gonna find a bar that will be nice and do some importing for me. I'll let you know the time and place

Kim: Thank you for the positive words...I do know it's coming, and I hate to complain in light of the fact I get to see Bo so often. I think the thing that bothers me now is that this no longer feels like home. I love love love my familly and friends, but this physical place is no longer where my heart is - and home is where the heart is

to all the other may filers: I hope this week is our week guys!! I have a nice bottle of red wine that is going to be opened, and I will have a drink for each of our approvals! Hell, I'm gonna have a big glass when we get our RFE notice LOL

<3 Jen

Congratulations to all new approvals!!!! Seen all those couples on the fast track to been re-united totally made my day!!!! It finally began!!!!

And to all of us still waiting, stay strong people!!! Hopefully we all we'll be on the way to consulates in the next couple of weeks

P.S. John, I'll be sure to say "Hello" to Olenka We love Puzata Hata, lol

Thanks Jenni and Bo. I was not gloating at all but just posting that they finally are getting to the May people. If they are then we all are gonna get the approvals soon.

Good luck and God bless.
