Die wachttijd! The wait :-(

Hey everyone! I have been following this thread throughout the entire process and it has been VERY helpful! So far I have been able to get every answer questioned based on your postings. Thank you. I am pretty sure that is the only way I stay sane each day. I do have a question though. Per the CEAC website My fiance's case was marked as "In Transit" today from the NVC. I have tried to find it on the DHL website but not having any luck finding my tracking number. Any help would be appreciated!

DHL can take up to 24 hours to register the tracking numbers. Same for most postal services that have a tracking number. Hope this helps a bit.

I think it depends on who you speak and whatever pile the have in front of them I guess?

November was for me and its my birthday today... Not the same without her. Wish I could celebrate it with her.

Yes it's true we all in the same boat like u said?

Also I think people with government jobs get through quick. Reason for that being is they already had the background check. They just check their files for that.

Being from the Netherlands I expect to wait the longest because we have a strong economy and a good relation with the USA. So since we are stable there might be a thoughtprocess behind that.

But there seems to be no real order to the processing. Like its random.

Well that sucked. Had my hopes up for a second lol.

This is whats currently open at the TSC. http://dashboard.uscis.gov/index.cfm?formtype=6&office=5&charttype=1

If you look at trend that means they should start on March soonish? With only 3xx left in Feb.

http://dashboard.uscis.gov/index.cfm?formtype=6&office=5&charttype=1 Some progress is being made albeit it being slow.

what do u mean by this?

The approved NOA2 got lost (LOL) returned to uscis coz they put the wrong address, and we think the uscis already forwarded our case to the us embassy here in Manila...

If that is the case you will be approved soon. Just hang on tight.

Is it bad for me to say, I wish I lived in a country with the expedite parts? I haven't been with my fiancee since November and by the looks of it, it won;t be until November I get to be with her again. :-(

You lucky bastards! We TSC people are stuck :-(

Oh I thought you meant there are 1 or 2 couples from march having their noa2. Sorry.

I'm not sure if it's ok just to write the date on the back of the pictures or should I also write where the picture was taken?

May 5.... and only 1 or 2 NOA2 for March Filers..aarrghhhh

What country? That would give some sort of an idea (id like to think lol)

Another day, no luck yet! lol

Some countries are more sensitive, I assume Pakistan is one of them. Don't worry about it.

From what it looks like it won't be until November till I can leave the Netherlands. Which kind of sucks since it's taking a huge toll on the relationship as well. My fiancee wants me to be there with her asap. And its taking longer and longer. It also makes it harder to actually plan anything. Like we wanted to do the wedding for friends and family (outside of the 3 month period) in february if I was able to get a job before. Now the way it looks, I won't have a job (or at least if my prospective employer walks away because of the timeframe) and the wedding will be pushed back big time...

I wish I was on the West cost now, having the CSC... Since they are tugging along at a great pace.

People at the CSC are pretty lucky. The TSC is still processing people from Dec 2013. They have a huge backlog. I am one of the unlucky TSC. So with 7 weeks that is super quick if you ask me. Nothing to complain about. Considering it includes background checks etc. Wish I had 7 weeks, means I could move before the summer is over. The way it looks now I won't move until October or later. Which is taking a huge toll on my fiancee who is in the USA getting frustrated and lonely.

We have more fights because of all this and then hearing or reading the time differences it causes her to get stressed and depressed sometimes.

My fiancee and I were approved today!

Congrats!

Its hard. My fiancee is really struggling. It will be a year since I was with her if these 5 months come up. The travel is expensive and if I had the money I will travel to her but we need it for the AOS. So I am staying strong for us both.

The whole CSC and TSC is annoying. Why dont they balance the load? It makes no sense. More people live on the east side of the country.

To top it all off I have been having phone interviews with companies so that when I move I will have a job moments after I get my SSN. On wednesday I will have another. Hopefully this one is willing to be in it for the long haul. But for now, its waiting. I hope we can follow the average of 72 day but doesnt look like it.

I am prepping the I-134 ahead of time. Since my fiancee works part-time her mom will co-sponsor. Does my mother-in-law need to fill in the g-325a as well? Or is just the I-134 enough? And does that require a birth cert on top of it?

Guess people that have Texas drew the short end of the stick. Still waiting but will probably get the whole waiting period sadly. Its causing my fiancee and me to bicker a lot more over useless things.

This waiting game! I dont want to wait anymore but only a month has passed sadly.

What did you guys do financially? Did you keep money in your bank accounts? Or took out a larger portion and put it in your bank/wife's/husband's account? I am debating on what to do.

So.... I have this very very important question.

What are some good comparable toilet paper brands to what we have over here in the Netherlands?

I know its silly, butt...

Got the NOA1 yesterday. After resending it earlier due to missing signature lol...

Send it in at the 4th, received it at the 7th. However they send it back because fiancee forgot a signature. So she send it back on the 22nd where it should arrive tuesday.
