Congrats to all approvals. We finally got our NOA1 a couple days ago (two and a half months after filing!). Just want to let everyone know who's waiting not to panic as for some reason some applications seem to get accepted and processed quickly while others like mine are like wading through molases. Hope the rest of the journey isn't like this! :unsure:

To keep us FEB FILERS bumped up to the beginning of the threads, I'll add my 2 cents worth.

We have been waiting most of April and now well into May for Pete to receive packet 3 in London. It's getting really depressing. We now think that London sent the packet to our lawyer in the US and it should have been sent to HIM in London. Tomorrow I'm going to DHL the copy our lawyer sent to us -- get it over there to Pete so he can get started with his side of it.

He STILL has not received his police report after FIVE WEEKS. I'm so worried about his filing out all these new forms and getting something wrong, I wish I could just go over there and help him. Then we could practice interview questions too instead of doing it over the phone.

This is taking too long. With my DHL tomorrow I'll include a birthday card for my poor Man. The second year we have missed being together on his birthday. Hope he's here for the 4th of July.

Yeah, I'm still holding out hope that Kevin will be here for July 4th, but I think I'm probably being too optimistic :( Good luck with getting all that paperwork going. I can't wait until he gets his packet 3 and we get this thing rolling again! I'm thinking about calling NVC today to see if our file is there yet. Impatient much? :lol:

I wonder if this is the hardest time of the waiting. At first it was all new and fresh and exciting. Now, a few months later, this is getting to be almost a hardship. Being apart for so long is hurting and the entire process is getting depressing.

Pete is more or less burning his bridges over there and waiting anxiously to be here. He's sold most of everything he owned, his car is almost dead and he's not going to get it fixed, he's sorting through piles of paperwork on his own. I was so lonely for him today that I started to write a little poem about waiting. Yet it's too soon to be anticipating the happy reunion at the airport.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. This is not a fun time.

i understand where you're coming from, lois! i've been calling the nvc tons since monday to see if they've received our file yet and everytime i call i get the 'your number is not in our system, either you entered the wrong # or we have not received your file, LOSER!' lol no it doesn't actually say loser...but everytime i hear that, it's how i feel...yet i've seen posts from people who got their noa2 after me had theirs received by nvc yesterday...and yes they were vermont people...we already had to wait longer than the average wait for the noa2 at this point...i was hoping at some point the wait would get shorter....i'm still hoping for july 4th...but with each passing day...it seems further out of reach. :(

maybe tomorrow when i call nvc...i'll talk to a human...i hope you guys get your packets 3 soon

chin up, lois, we can't let them get to us! we are going to make this thing happen for real! that happy reunion at the airport will be here before you know it!

They are very nice and helpful, I cant remember the options off hand, but you should get through ok if you call when they open, before they get too busy.

Good luck
