We got approved too!!!  And I know exactly what you mean with these two postings!!! Hahahaha!!!!!  Yesssssssss!!! I was shouting, singing, dancing, and crying in the parking lot of the Circle K store about 40 minutes ago! My fiance and I were video chatting on Facebook Messenger when I got the text message from USCIS on my phone!!! I just stopped to buy my daughter some chips on the way home from her call back from an audition she had the night before.  She was awesome and she made it through to go to the showcase in Florida!!!!  I don't know how much good news I can handle for one night!!!! I feel like my heart is going to explode!!!!!!!!!!

That is exactly what happened to me! I used FB to video my fiancee and decided to check real quick right after she picked up because I saw a bunch of new VJ posts in my email. It was just before 10PM.....tired from working....I squinted because something looked different....checked it 3x....yeah!

I am leaving to the Philippines on 2/24. I gave us a 50/50 the NOA2 would arrive by then. Guess the dice rolled our way today.

So happy to hear you are having a great day too!

The negatives are caused by the addition of the new records added today. They won't appear moving forward.

 

NOTE: I removed the cases with "approved" and other "final" statuses (Rejected, Denials, etc.)  as of yesterday from my list, and added the remaining ~300 cases from Dec from my original list. If something was missed then let me know.

 

Wow, lots of activity today. Nice!

Haha yesssss! I love FB messenger for bringing loved ones closer. Glad you got your approval before your trip.  How awesome for you both to be able to celebrate and prepare for the next steps together.  I figured you and I would get them the same day.  It was something I just felt, didn't want to say anything though.  But I am so glad we did.  Congratulations!!!!

This afternoon, I left for a work conference in San Francisco.  I decided that I wasn't going to think about the visa at all -- I was just going to enjoy being in California.  The plane landed, I took my phone out of airplane mode, and the app said APPROVED!!!!!! I almost burst into tears in seat 23B.  I keep checking the app again just to make sure it's real!

This afternoon, I left for a work conference in San Francisco.  I decided that I wasn't going to think about the visa at all -- I was just going to enjoy being in California.  The plane landed, I took my phone out of airplane mode, and the app said APPROVED!!!!!! I almost burst into tears in seat 23B.  I keep checking the app again just to make sure it's real!

Congratulations!!!  Awesome news!!!
