Any other September filers feeling completely dejected? :(

I received my NOA1 Sept. 19th.

I know a 7-8 month wait for NOA2 is common at TSC (albeit unacceptable when CSC is on a roll with no backlog), but I can't help but feel like our papers have been lost in the void or overlooked or like the universe is against us.

I know this sounds incredibly whiny. I'm just uber frustrated.

[ Spring 2005 ] Met online, in-game (WoW)

[ February 2012 ] Finally admitted our true feelings after years of staying hush hush!

[ March 22, 2012 ] Made things official!

[ April 13, 2012 ] Met for the first time in real life and fell in love!

[ July 8, 2014 ] Got engaged!

[ September 10, 2014 ] Filled out paper work

[ September 19, 2014 ] Receipt Date

[ September 23, 2014 ] NOA1

And after 246 hellish days (8+ months) of being trapped in TSC purgatory....

[ May 27, 2015 ] NOA2 :)

[ September 16, 2015 ] Interview at the US Consulate in Montreal!

Still waiting.

NOA1 9/16/2014

RFE 10/31/2014

RFE Response received 11/18/2014

I've sent several requests for why it's taking so long. Their response is processing hold for security checks and cannot say when they will be able to make a decision.

It's been almost two years. We talk everyday. My last visit was one year ago. It feels like we will never receive a decision.
