Hi! Mind if I join the club? I'm cheating a little since NOA2 was dated 30 April but I didn't get it until May, so I feel I fit in with you guys best. Lets do this thing and get it over with already! :thumbs:

Hello! Don't mind at all thats why its here. Welcome. Our approval was really the 30th also but wifey was too anxious to wait for me to get home and look at the letter so she thought we were approved on the 5th when we got the letter :bonk: She was too excited to realize the snail mail system takes a few days :rofl: but I love her dearly anyhow and wouldn't trade her for anything.

:bonk::bonk::bonk::bonk:

count me in, no nvc case number yet...i am calling 2 times a day!,

nao2 was sent may 1 but have not received it in the mail...

thanks for this information, i didnt know my husband will need to make a cover letter! and i thought i was all set! my husband is from pakistan but is living in the philippines right now so ill keep in touch with you TN girl...he recently got his local police clearance in the city he is living now and will pick up in NBI on may 18th...will u be sending documents to your husband and he will send to NVC or will you send it directly from the philippines?

I'm sending it to my husband; then he's going to send it to NVC.

Sure, just let me know if he's having problem.. I might be able to help.

I'm getting all my documents from National Statistics OFfice on the 18th too, then i'll mail it to hubby.

Still debating on using Express Mail by the Post Office or use FEDEX... the latter is way too pricey.

so far my husband as been sending documents to me and to other parts of the united states through EMS, its good because i can actually check on usps when it enters the united states...

My husband used FEDEX to send his documents to me. I would get the package after 2 business days. You can track it online and see its progress.
