January 2008 Filers......Any NO2 Approval??? What is going on ???

[missmyfiance 0]

I bet that there are a lot of frustrated people out there going through what I am going through. I sent my I129F application in January and I got NAO1 letter on January 30th. I haven't heard from them since. It seems that mine was touched once on a Sunday "WEIRD". I just want to make sure that some people out there are in the same boat as me.

Some of you guys that filed at the same time as me, did any of you got approved? Is there a way to expedite the process..

HELP!!!!

[~Laura and Nick~ 5]

No, there is no way to expedite unless there is some sort of medical emergency.

It takes anywhere from 4 to 6 months to get NOA2.

Some people have been very lucky and gotten very quick approvals but...don't get your hopes up.

It took us just over 3 months for ours and I feel very very lucky to even have it.

You did file with Vermont which is generally speedier than California so feel lucky for that.

Be patient and think of others who have filed in September of 2007 and are still waiting for NOA2.

Best of luck and patience to you.

I bet that there are a lot of frustrated people out there going through what I am going through. I sent my I129F application in January and I got NAO1 letter on January 30th. I haven't heard from them since. It seems that mine was touched once on a Sunday "WEIRD". I just want to make sure that some people out there are in the same boat as me.

Some of you guys that filed at the same time as me, did any of you got approved? Is there a way to expedite the process..

HELP!!!!

If there's anything in life that will teach patience, this is it. Take a look at my timeline, you'll see that I went MONTHS with no touches. It is very frustrating. Even more so because I was sent an RFE and I overnighted the info back to them immediately. The RFE packet said that it could take up to two MORE months before a decision is made.

Sooooooo, just be patient. There is a long road ahead, and remember that it will take time.

[K1inCincy 0]

Yes I agree. It is all about time. I got my NOA1 on Jan. 9th and thats the last I've heard from them, but hang in there...we're all in this together lol and one day we'll all be able to tell our friends this crazy process story and laugh!

missmyfiance,

I understand what you're going through, as I sent my petition on November 1st, received the NOA 1 on November 8th, and then got the NOA 2 on March 10th. However, you just recently sent yours in, it hasn't even been three months yet, and I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you could be waiting awhile longer. I know it SUCKS so much and it seems unbearable, but you WILL get through it like almost everyone else does. You just have to think positive, and hopefully good things will happen for you.

In terms of expediting the process, no there is no way, otherwise everyone else would be expediting their petitions as well. There's no need for you to worry as you just RECENTLY sent your petition in.

GOOD LUCK, and you'll get through it!

I received my NOA1 January 23 and not one touch yet. Just have to have patience but being out of VSC you have a better chance of hearing earlier looks like

Hello, you are a January VSC filer like us. We do have a january filer thread and also 2 January CSC filer threads and 1 January VSC filer. I don't know if this will help you but if you want to check how many among January VSC filers have been approved to date and how many are still waiting just follow this link: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...t&p=1726935

our thread have been very active in the past months cheering every approval and encouraging those who are still waiting but it is slowly slipping back due to the apparent slump in the VSC approvals . Please know that even if you have not been active on our thread, you are included in our list and there are people out there who are holding you in their thoughts and prayers.

I keep hoping and praying that all of you who are still waiting will get approved already and i will continue to do so until all of you are approved.

I wish you all the best and an approval soonest. God speed.

I guess that I got lucky because I applied January 19th, got my NOA2 March 11, and got my Fiancee's Moscow appointment on April 2. The only thing I had going for me was going to the VSC and doing exactly as the many VJ checklists told me to do so luckily, there were no RFEs. Like everyone else said, try to keep patient. If you meditate, now is a good time to do it. If you don't know how to meditate, try to learn it because it may distract you from your current frustration.

You can see who is still waiting...

Laura,

Where did you find that info??? I would love to be able to check that out daily instead of looking every day on USCIS. Can you give me a link for that, where I can view it???

Thanks,

Erin and Gamal
