feel the same here... :( sometimes i feel crazy about myself checking our emails how many times a day hoping a BOMBING news of approval is waiting there and just end-up with the heavy heart... :blush: .Have nothing against early approvals for others...(trying NOt to be jealous, well have our time..)..they are lucky and hoping we could be blessed like them...only thing is were stressed like crazy gathering the papers in order SOONEST we can... and seems like it doesn't matter if u are an early or late filer coz after all they pick out their approvals in random! waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh were holding hard on to our sanity....

I used to check our emails a lot of times a day and today i woke up wit my honey calling me he got a notice on email that were approved! THANKS GOD..i screamed out. Its an undescribable feeling, so blessed for NO RFE's either as we fear that coz we dont have a separate Letter of Intent to Marry, My fiancee just write it for both of us..which is BIG THANKS TO THAT! We were only touched once since our NOA1,..and that is October 18...NO touches...no news....Nothing until today that were just surprise of the news :thumbs: ...So to all you guys out there..DON'T WORRY about the touches, it may or may not be touched often just like others...but APPROVAL NOTICE will just surprise you one day just like we had....So now will be preparing again for the next step....More research againnnnnn!!!

GOODLUCK to all and praying for a speedy approvals for all. YOUR all next in line....GODBLESS and many thanks for all the emotional support and helpful infos....VJ Rulesss!!!! Pretty soon were all be reunited to our love ones and never be separated again......

Congrats to everyone. I'm still hoping for some good news in January! :hehe:

I hope we're approved soon. It's so strange how they get through them. Not a touch since Oct. 24 and some cases with NOA1s after ours at the VSC are getting approved. Does anyone know if it's a sign of something wrong, or whether it's just in a slower worker's pile?
