Hey Crew,

How is everyone doing? Getting ready for NVC?

Some July filer received approval in 39 days...without a request to expedite...oh, it was at CSC.

We've got NOA1 on our I-130 and I-129F

Just trying to be patient....and wishing we'd filed a lot sooner.

Hang in there brothers and sisters....they can try to keep us separated, but love conquers all.

And if love isn't enough...there's always the Mexican border. :lol:

well it is September 11 now and we still haven't gotten our NOA2 yet. it has been over 2 months now that we got the NOA1 (July 8) and my wife is starting to get worried because most of the NOA2's seem to come 2 months after the NOA1, should we call the California service center or just give it till the end of the month?
