So guess what. I've finally decided to let CSC be....wasn't looking for an approval until next month. Well as I was lurking around in the K1 forum I've noticed ppl were calling USCIS to check status (only if a touch was done). So I said what the heck...cld them up followed the prompts to RFE line and voila they confirmed my petition was approved on 5/11 and will recv a notice w/in 30 days. After my last "false info" I asked "are you sure" and he was like "yes ma'am". I asked again and the rep stated laughing. He then said you filed for your husband Javon and I said yea. I was speechless so he asked if I was still there and I said yea just in shock!!!

Thanks it's have been a long time indeed. Well I cld again (just to be on the safe side) and was also confirmed. I asked him why it wasnt't updated on the site and he said b/c it's in the "approval bin" waiting for the next step. I also asked if they sent me the NOA2 yet and he said no maybe within the next two weeks... :unsure: Is that normal? I thought they usually send those out ASAP?
