I feel for you and I've said this on a different thread. I am SO humbled by all of you who have been waiting much longer than the estimated 3-4 months. I am truly sending you the best vibes and praying for approvals for all of you September filers to be approved by the end of the week!

I'm beyond anxious. I've been praying for approval this week.

YES!!! I'm praying it happens this week.

YES!!! I'm praying it happens this week.

YES!!! I'm praying it happens this week.

Keeping the positive vibes going... hopefully it’s our week!

I'm rooting for you all! Big positive vibes!!!

Good Luck to everyone this week who are still waiting for their approval. I hope that I, and all of you receive one! ❤️

This is actually being a big mess of work flow! Completely not understandable that they are approving cases from October and still not have been done with September! UNBELIEVABLE! 😡

Finally APPROVED!! Sigh!!!
NOA 1- September 11
126 Days of wait! 
Good luck to everyone. 

That's the part of this process is that there are places to check on the timeline when your case will be adjudicated so their really isn't any reason to call. You can move your file ahead faster by calling so sit back have patience and soon you will see your approval.

Today is the 111th day for me. I'm really hoping to get my approval this week.

We got our NOA2!!!! Woke up this morning, checked the app, and it says the case was approved! Right before Christmas as well! Best Christmas present everrr!!
 
NOA1: 9/18
NOA2: 12/23
97 days

Congratulations to you!

Got my APPROVAL today per the case tracker! Waiting for the official notice!

Thank you, @Greenbaum!!
 
You and @Sarge2155 have been making this journey a little easier and less scary, and also my fellow September filers. 
 
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone here getting their NOA2. I hope everyone can get it in 2019.

I have seen that so many times and forgive me but I am A_na_al when it comes to what is and is not in this process. Because it matters. Denials are not a happy occasion. So, technically the DS-160 when submitted has never asked for a fee. But you have to have the DS-160 completed to PAY and schedule the interview appointment. It was about a year ago that they required the DS-160 prior to scheduling the interview and hence I see where people think that it's a fee since they jump right over to paying the interview fee in order to schedule their interview appointment. Anywhoooo. Have a wonderful day.
 
BTW, UK is so easy to interview. She'll will be in front of the CO for 3-5 min tops so having more then one visit isn't going to make a difference.

Thanks... Sorry to trouble you - as ever.

No problem. Great discussion for you and for others to read. It's an educational process and to learn you ask questions and banter back and forth to achieve the correct answer. 
 
Darn, I wish I knew the Queens English. To many spelling errors. 

My NOA1 was 9/9
Got an RFE today 16/12
 
I feel super bummed and stressed as I thought I submitted everything. So I guess I just need to wait and see what the issue is and fix it.

Hope it's an easy fix! Stay positive and think of a happy future!

Dont feel to bummed it could be a very easy fix.  You will know when it arrives.  You are on your was to Noa2

Congratulations!!!

Filed September 4, NOA 2 today, December 13. It was more anti-climactic than I assume it would have been without the internet/forum since I knew they were rolling in... but wow. The approval feels great. Good luck to all who wait.
