my ears are burning!!!!

did anyone see the noa1 on that may filer the 13th?

and yes you will all hear about it as soon as Vito tells me.

I'm glad for them, and hope that bodes well for the rest of us. Its so strange how someone from behind us in line gets theirs first. I really feel the way this process is run is wrong, but since when did my gov care what I think anyhow? Hopefully I'll be done with this process soon, and wont care anymore! I think I will put in a complaint with my Senator though.

not that i'm not glad for them, though slightly jellous, but do you think its the correct date. its seems too good to be true.

Just visiting over here in the May waiting room.......




This is how I feel these last few days:

i know how you feel.

Ido wonder if it might be wrong since the mailed-date noa1 is so far apart

I think it's probably the way they put it back into the queue and separate them into stacks, as well as the pace they're being worked.

Seems rather random and inefficient. There may also be a special cause for that NOA2 as well so I'll start going ape when more than just one May filer gets approved.

Hopefully Friday is the day, or some notification by the weekend's conclusion. Next week or the week after I'm sure we'll see May filers approved.

My birthday's on the 17th, and hopefully that will come with an NOA2 (although extremely unlikely).

SRVT you are a life saver.. i completly forgot that Brad celebrates his birthday on the 15th of oct because of this NOA2 and getting back into work mode stress.. i have to pick up gifts for him and send it over.. if everyone is wondering why so early then FYI - Packages sent from the india post office to the california post office takes about 27 days and another 5-10 days if it gets stuck at the customs office..

Just so that he gets his birthday package on time i will have to send it by tuesday next week..

could you guys help me by suggesting what you would give your fiance or if your the fiancee then what would you like to recieve on your birthday..

here is a little about him : he is a professional designer of clothes, jewellary, shoes, books, bags, company logo's and the list goes on.. he is into fantasy and loves reading and watching anything related to fantasy...

Last birthday : i gave him sent him some yum plum cake, books about india with illustrations, a ring with his and my name carved on it [ this was apart from the engagement ring] all indian notes starting from 1 rupee till 1000 rupees, new pair of pants and 2 indian kurta's [ picture attached ]

Hi May filers. I'm glad someone from May got approved already... I was also thinking their cheque was cashed May 13 and it was not NOA1 based on the post they made prior the NOA2 post. So hang in there May filer... We got noa1 April 29, you guys are lucky if you get yours earlier than mine but of course I will be very happy for you...

Cloe here

That bitter sweet happiness for someone else when you yourself aren't happy?!!!

I'm officially crabby today...just sayin. coworkers of mine, beware.

I need to make myself NOT check igor's and the USCIS site obsessively. Or at least give myself days off from clicking and refreshing the pages

The checking of Igor's is a disease not an obsession the only known cure is the issuance of an NOA2.

Indeed....I was chatting with the my fiance the other night and I told him I didnt feel well (bummed) and he said to take some medicine...lol...I told him there is no such medicine for this....

Its weird I wonder if we were all ocd before and just didn't know it?

Case recieved and bloody pending!!!!

Im gunna go crazy...and then i think well tomorrows another day...and so i wake up and have anticipation all day again..and then i get home after wrk and check my emails and have to face the dissapointment Again... and then i wake up and do it all over. Its driving me insane and the horrible part is- we just dont know when we are going to get t. Can keep track as much as poss but you never really know and thats the hardest part!!!
The way theyre dealing with it kinda makes me feel inferior to the american nation..as if im some sort of crimminal or somthing. I dont wanna live in america cuz its amazing, i justwanna be with my fiancee, its been nrlyy 5 months now!! Why are they makingit so damn hard. Im seriously loosing my patience!!

Ps good luck to all of you
pps sorry

hahahah i didnt read the posts before mine..seem like we are all having a bad day
is it too late to give up on today for approvals?

Seriously, maybe a vacation from Igor's list, VJ and USCIS. That's what I'm thinking. I got in a bad mood when I clicked on "Immigration timelines" and it said the ones being processed (according to timelines) is April 25. Yesterday it was April 15.....(Wow, I do have OCD )

It's like watching water boil. Maybe we just need to step away.

we is 99 wooohhooooo agaian but this time i see it.

Guys, just a FYI... I received a touch today 9/5... being the first touch since I filed, 5/1

omg omg omg omg

we haven;t yet but perhaps this is it, perhaps you will be our first

Heh. i was skeptical reading about that May filer approved... but maybe they are onto May already! :D:D:D

lets hope that this is your approval now wheres my touch csc????

hells bells now i'm all wired and excited and i'm gunna be refreshing the ruddy uscis website for hours.

I was touched mid august ( )

But I think it was just my congressman checking the status on our case (which I didnt really ask him to do - I asked him something else. Oh well)

do you have an ipod and does it have an international clock feature like mine? cos i think you need one! take 8hrs off our time love -8hrs. when you wake up in the morning its far gone past midnight. at about 11pm is about 4 or 3 pm cos i get off work and so does Vito (he fins early before you panic.) so you prob can relax around 3 or 4 in the morning but then you will have to judge when the system is set to update.

ok now i'm wired and seriously suffering from ocd. but we are bk up to 100 blast but who cares, wheres that uscis site again.

I'm just resigning myself to quit looking until Monday, and looking forward to it, cause I'm really believing that it will be THE week for lots of us.

i can't resign myself to being sensible now!!!! this is vera and brads fault have they got their noa2 yet?

No NOA2 just yet, just a touch

ours still says 2008/07/04 i wanna get our noa2 so we can book our wedding date.

BOOM!

oh my god i think i am gunna cry for you!!!!!!!!!!!

Awsum.

now whos jellous of whom??

Thank you! Rest assured, you May filers are coming SOOOOOOOOOON!

<3

its just hit me about the security checks and name check. all my life i have put the hyphen in my surname, but many official documents i have like my birthcertificate and my passport dont have it they have my surname as it should be but not got the - in it. i put the - in my name like i always have cos i was taught it as a child. though apprently now my dad says the correct way is without the - .do you think that would be a problem. oh god what they havn't cleared my name yet? i was so confident i would instantly cos its a unique name and unless i'm closely related to tham or someone nicked it. there shouldn't be anyone else with that surname.

Congratulations! I'm happy for you!

Now it begins it earnest for us all.

I've never been so eager for a Monday

Ahh dont sweat it... Vera has 2 surnames too. A hyphen wont matter. Take a deep breath, relax. your golden!

Dont get the jitters now. Its just starting for us May people. Next week is yours Hannah, give it at least that week. We've waited so long, one more week is easy. I dont think a hyphen is going to mean anything to anybody.

i bloody hope so. i'm so desperate that nvc get it before the 24th and give it a number. i meet Vito at heathrow on the 25th and we plan hopefully to stay the night. i want to get my medical done then if i can. i at least want Vito to be there for one of them if he can't be at the medical. I will be 26 on the 28th so csc give me an early birthday present.

Congratulations Brad and Vera!!!!!

Muito obrigado!

It has to feel so good to change the timeline in your signature to include the NOA2--woo hoo!!!

Lol... I couldn't wait!

You know... before I left work I checked the USCIS, still said 5/1/2008. I arrived home, 15mins later 9/5/2008... and I think about 20mins after that it was approved! So, it dosent take too long.

aww thats sweet! congrats on the NOA2 hope to hear to get some more NOA2 of May filers this coming week!

fingers crossed.

Congrats and good luck on the rest of the journey.

Wonder if we'll get any weekend surprises..

*looks over to Hannah and cca*

Congrats!!

I know that its just that ive noticed a pattern that ppl get their approval emails around 12 at midnight latest and then after that it seems to fizzle out.... could just be me and this isnt true at all but thats what i was asking

*looks bk* and says nope not yet
