Just wanted to stop in as I noticed approvals starting to fly in for July🎈🎊🎉 .
Best wishes to all of you for a speedy approval to NOA2. 
 

 

Thank you! Still waiting on ours!

Just read your beautiful story. My fiancé and I met through a game as well. Lol. 

Congratulations on your approval! I'm sure tomorrow's arrival will be so exciting!

I can't wait to be reunited with my best friend ❤

Thank you. 
I was the first April Filer approved on here but then stuck at NVC a few months. 
It is a constant waiting game and trust me our patience wore very thin. 
I was constantly worried about every single step. 
If I only had listened to this wise man,  @Greenbaum, I would have way less stress and anxiety. 
Once I learned I had no control over my timeline, or very little, this process became much easier. 
Good luck dear friend. 
Before you know it you two will be together. 🎉🎊

There is always someone who has waited  longer. The wait is what you make it 2019 wait times for K1s are lightening fast believe it or not. You'll be OK..

@Sarge2155, had a very long wait.
I remember the obstacles you were still going through when we filed.

Hope all is well and that you are reunited now.

Whenever I get really impatient I remind myself that a year or two ago it seemed the average NOA2 wait was 6 months or longer.

Yes long  but not as long  as some,  yes we are together now and all is well. Thank you. Other people's longer waits always  humbled me.

Yes that's  a good strategy. 6 months was the minimum. I remember those days. I'm living proof of just how long you can be made to wait.

Thank you for the shout out!

 

This process can be very trying on a relationship. You so want to be together that it's killing you. Pretty soon the two of you are at wits end and it sometimes flows over into the relationship. There is something you can do and you so wisely understand that no one made you any promises that any part of this process would be completed on such and such date. Not USCIS, not NVC and surely not the Embassy. So, relax and find things to keep you busy. Sooner then you think, you'll hear something positive on your case. Just takes a smile and patience.

I-129F:  7/17/2019
NOA1:   7/19/2019

So, the letter physically mailed to me said that my NOA1 date is 7/19/2019.  When I use the newer https://my.uscis.gov/ it says 7/24/2019.  When I go to the older site, it says 7/19/2019.  Not sure why the difference.  Are you seeing the same thing? Also, how reliable is the text message/email?  I did get a text message for NOA1 but not an email.  Is that normal?  If my physical letter is correct I am on day # 96.  Last year we tried to do the tourist visa.  I was living in Cambodia and since my mother is more financially well-off, she sponsored the tourist visa.  The visa was denied.  All information on the application was honest.  Could that impact my timeline?  Good luck to you all!!!
