Hi everyone!!!
So I got the email from USCIS saying "We have taken an action on your case." And I was like "ummmm is it so...? (with suspicious eyes)"
I checked the app. All I see is "Received."
I checked the old website. "Received" again.
After 10 mins of doing errands, I checked the new website, and I saw this!!!!!!!!!!

 
I couldn't believe it. I screamed at my mom when I told her!
We don't have a hardcopy NOA2 in our hand yet, but hopefully we will get it soon so we can actually feel more real.
 
NOA1 Received date on old website & the app: Oct. 27th
(NOA1 Received date on new website: Oct. 31st)
NOA 2 Approved date on new website: Apr. 25th
 
I updated my timeline, but I will put the correct NOA2 date if it is different in the hardcopy from the website.
I hope everyone will get their NOA2 soon. Sending you lots of love to my October fellows!!

Cologne is so close to me! I live right at the German border. It's like an hour drive from where I live.

We got NOA2 yesterday! I guess whining pays off sometimes?? My fiance is from the Cologne area

Just saw it on the new website.

im so happy!!!

Omg!!!! We just got approved.  I prayed, I asked my mom to pray with me earlier today and I was just laying down closing my eyes telling myself that we will get approved tomorrow, I imagined opening the app and visualized that the app says our case was approved. Just 5 mins ago my fiance texted me to call him and told me that our case just got approved!!! OMG OMG!!! I opened the app and we really got approved!!! Thank you God!!! I owe everything to you!!! 
 
NOA 1:  October 27, 2017

I pray to those over 190 days and still waiting for yours to come next.  Pray and visualize   and keep a positive attitude  
 

Oct 24th here, same situation. A lot of the scans show them just skipping over it

oct 16 here ....lol my day 191 

Storm brewing here & I hope a approval storm is brewing for my fellow Octo’s still waiting!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hi Guys, 
 
I just want to share that we have been Approved! I’m one step closer to be with my first love since I was 16. Our 11 long years of long distance relationship will finally be over!
 
 I got frustrated waiting too but I always reminded myself, if we could wait for 11 years, it would not hurt to wait for a few more days or even weeks! 
 
I wish you all the best!
 
 

26th here and I’m generally in good spirits but this week and day 180 has been harder for sure. I’m tired of waiting and miss my guy like crazy  maybe today...

Or the 24th! ....

Oct 25th here as well, feeling the same... Hoping for some approvals today for all the neglected dates ... Let's go USCIS!!!

Wednesdays seem to be an approval day. I was approved last Wednesday. I have faith 

Day 184
APPROVED 🎉🎉🎉🎉
NOA1 10/23
NOA2 10/24
old site received 
new site approved 
apps received still
 
continued prayers for those still waiting🙏🏽❤️

Hey everyone, day 196 and...
We got approved! 💕
 
Don't lose hope everyone, we'll all get there soon! 😙
 
Apparently it got approved on the 23rd but the notification only showed up on the new site today (no updates on the old site), so don't lose hope!

My love has got quite some grey in his beard. I love it   Makes him look so handsome. 
Haven't found a grey hair on me yet. But I'm some washed out dirty blond so it's probably hard to tell 
 
Onwards and upwards folks. Let those approvals rain down!

Hey,
 
I've been silently watching this thread as recently my patience has been waning and as much as talking to my fiancé is great. It's kind of a comforting feeling to know we've got company on this draining experience!
 
Got an official filing date of 30th Oct, cannot wait to see if we get our approval this week or not as I can see some cases after mine being touched!
 
I've known my better half for 10yrs and we've been together for 5yrs and engaged for 3yrs... probably started wedding planning a good 4yrs ago too - we already have plans in place... risky I know but *Was too over excited and didn't realise this would be this long of a process*. 
 
Hope everyone waiting for a response gets one soon!

Look you’re strong, believe me you are!
most people here are extremely strong people.
 
Im not a strong person when it comes to anxiety. I tried to withdraw the petition for a week right before the approval. I was going crazy.(still am) living in a country where right now, I have no house, no job, no family. Stuck here gave me anxiety.actually made my anxiety so bad I just wanted it to stop. You got an rfe and there is always, always an answer to that. You’re not in the limbo of waiting longer.
 
the most important thing to this process is to remember denial is extremely extremely rare. And as you have the requirements done, you will know you’re waiting for an approval, not for a denial. You’re just waiting but not for a verdict just for a confirmation. That’s what got me through this...that’s all we got. 
 
Sad faces scares away noa2s! Believe me I would die to have an rfe if it meant me getting it before my anxiety hit. So that’s why it’s a firm no to panicking yet. You’ll get through this. One way or another!
