Hi VJer's,

I just wanted to share our good news! We received notification through the USCIS website today that our petition was approved! We are both so excited!

I would like to thank everyone who has made this site and all the information provided as we submitted everything correctly and had no troubles!

Now I have to try and get my head around what we need to organize now. Any tips would be appreciated!

To everyone else out there waiting - hang in there! Your turn will come soon! :)

CONGRATULATIONS!! You and I posted our I-129s off the same day... I think the Olympics in London have really slowed things down this end though. Good luck to you for the next part of the process :)

this is confusing. Your NOA1 was March 1, 2012 and approved July 17, 2012. But at the same center, some with NOA1 on March 29, 2012 are approved the same day as your NOA2. thats a big gap. may be april filers have started receiving NOA2 too. u never know
