So here I've been fretting for over a week since my application was recieved. I still had no NOA1. I've been hounding my sister (address back in the States). I've been pestering people (and whining a little) about NOA1 wait times and I've been filling in the blanks and decided that there MUST have been a problem.

Well, I guess the problem is that they didn't see the need to send a NOA1 since it would be sent out almost at the same time as the NOA2! Our package was accepted via express mail on the 23rd and it was approved on the 28th! I can't believe how fast that was. Really?!?!?! 3 days?!?!?!?!. I wish everyone gets to cross that staffers desk!

I am thrilled, so is my fiance. We hope the rest of the process goes as smooth. We are keeping our fingers crossed.

YIPPEEEEE!!!!!!!

Sue

WOW congrats...good luck with the rest of the process..i here so vex with the mail in barbados...like they deliver mail by donkey cart..every its two weeks they mailed out packet 4 to my fiance and he ain't get it yet. so tomorrow he is gonna call them and let them know

Congratulations! It's amazing how us CSC people have to wait almost 3 months sometimes and VSC have to wait 3 days... I think that they need to share some of the load :P It does make me smile to hear that there are other people going through faster and get to be with their loved ones sooner. Good luck on the rest of your journey!
