congrats.... how original.

when I get approved the last thing I want to hear is a congrats from a complete stranger.

Well, my family and friends don't know anything about the process so they were not the ones I wanted to share my happiness with when getting NOA2. I can only imagine the conversation: "I got my NOA2!!!" "your what?" "petition approved" "oh does that mean he/she's coming now?" "No, there's a few more months" "Huh, ok. Good for you I guess?".

So I totally understand the OP wanted to share here with people going through the same process.

Anyway, congrats, it's about time! :dance: :dance:

You are exactly right! The people here were the ones following me from NOA1 to NOA2. I did tell my family first and then I rushed here to share. This place becomes like a second family to you in a way.

Congratulations!

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" - Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945.
