te amo MEGR

Congrats to your NOA2, but I would like to know when did you guys file a service request or when did you contact your senator? Thank you..

I contacted the Senator on December 20th (5 months almost exactly after NAO1). Im not sure if it helped or not, but I will say that if it didn't, it is a huge coincidence to have received the NOA2 so shortly after. Good luck!

I am trying so hard to stay positive through this whole process but today I feel like all is hopeless. Somehow I got to talk to a tier 2 representative and he told me that they are working on July 17th petitions. Although they said this about a month ago as well, that is not what upset me. The man then told me that once they get to my case (July 19 submit, July 23 NOA2)"probably next week" that it then takes about 30-45 days to hear anything back. I was under the impression that once they started working on your case, it went fairly quickly. In 45 days, that will be 7 months.....and who knows if I will receive an RFE or not. Sorry for complaining.....it's just that sometimes people who are not going through this process cannot fully understand the frustration.

Anyway, this was mostly just an update for those who want information. Also I have a question. When they say they are working on July 17th petitions, it that the NOA1 date, or the date it was received?

Good luck to everyone
