Im back from the states and had an absolute blast! Was in Hawaii with a couple of friends and had so much fun in the sun then left for the freezing cold in NY...Really had a good time...It was hard to leave, as usual but knowing that I will be moving there soon made it so much easier leaving!

quiet... :whistle::whistle::whistle: I think so too. I was wondering where are all the gangs?! We are still waiting for the hard copy of our NOA2 so that we can call NVC to see if they have already mailed the package. Rught now, my fiance is getting together stuff for the interview. I got my background check back from the FBI. Yes, the FBI. Not that you guys will need it, but I'd rather have it than without it when being asked at the consulate. Anybody would like to share experience on the package 3 and 4? Or just the interview?

Same here. Its kinda stressfull to see that nobody is getting approved. As long as VSC keep them coming we still have hope but they seem to be slowing down and that's not good. Lets hope next week will be better for all of us still waiting. :thumbs:

That's what's strange about it (at least for me & my SO). It seems like you wait forever for the NOA2, but then feel rushed when it's coming up because you have SO MUCH OTHER STUFF to gather.

Whenever my SO talks about how he can't wait until we get approved, I remind him that we (mostly he) still have a lot to do while waiting.

Awwww thanks! And congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didnt think that RFE would hold you up too long and I am so glad that USCIS approved you so quickly.

Sorry I've been MIA - been visiting my father in law to be and getting a very good idea of what david will be like in his 80's! I'm headed home tomorrow (booooooooooooo) but am excited to get on to NVC. We got back from the east coast today to find the hardcopy NOA 2 in the mail.

MzMo - so glad you had a great time in Hawaii. I cant believe it is snowing in NY at the moment....poor devils. We haven't had a day below 80 since I got here.....I really cant wait to come and live in the land of eternal sunshine (okay so I am skipping over the hurricanes and tropical thunder storms and living the dream hahahahahhaha) and be with Dave. We had a great time, I know i cant move here till Sept....but suddenly 6 months doesn't seems so long.

To you guys still waiting....well i just wish you all the best and hope you are approved soon. Cold comfort whilst those around you get approved, I know this....but us November filers have to stick together and I for one will still be here until everyone gets approved.

Much love to y'all (I'm getting my slang in) will check in when I get back to the UK (:() in a couple of days.
