Snoopy dance time!!! :dance::dance: I received the NOA2 on June 18th when I checked my email today! I was so happy. :dance: I decided to check my email today after being off the computer for 2 days. My heart was pounding so fast when I saw the CRIS email in my box. I was like, oooooooooooooohhhhhh myyyy Lord! I jumped up from my chair and danced around the house! I thank God for helping me through to this point and I also thank VJ and its members for giving me the advice needed for the process of getting things together for the K1 application. I guess patience is a virtue huh? Well, I hope all you other VJer's get yours real soon. Hang in there! You may be next! :thumbs:

Wonderful! I am so happy for you! :dance:
