We received our NOA1 an hour ago via E-Mail and I am now finally able to check my case status online! The actual NOA1 date may be the 5th (which would mean it took 5 days from when it was received on the 31st) but I'll wait and see what the hard copy says. And for whatever reason we were re-routed to the Texas Service Center...but maybe that's just how it works.

:D So Excited!

Today makes 30 days since I sent out the I-129f. The last touch on our petition was on 7/26/10. Looks as if the speed that had been seen by others has petered out. Not totally off-the-wall anxious yet, but NOA2 would be nice. We are going to start bumping into the holiday periods soon and if we have to make reservations at the last minute during the holidays, we'll have to give up the other arm and the other leg as well.

It has been over 30 days since my petition was last touched. I think that I have only seen 2 NOA2's for July filers anywhere. Is there something wrong with July? Are we some kind of pariah? Don't worry, I'm not all that whacked out; I only wish that there was some kind of movement.
