kruz- I have yet to send the NVC anything besides money. There is nothing wrong with NVC in my case, but everything wrong with my case to the NVC! :bonk: :rofl:

Oh John *sigh* all of May will take first place before I get to the end of the race. I will happily see you zoom past me. :)

Marie- I don't know where you are (located in the U.S.) but I hope to hear some screaming coming from you soon!

Woo hoo 200 pages!!! :blink: Man do we talk a lot :P. Can we bring this as evidence to the interview? :P. Ok Tom, time to get the party started! The best thing for our celebration would be more approvals so that we can lay this tired thread to rest. Everyone wants to move on to NVC now.

Where will the people from other months go????? Will the other months threads gain more popularity and have 500 Marchers in it wishing well to the other months? :unsure:

Well, go luck to everyone still waiting!!!!

Tom- Sorry to burst your bubble but unless you have been married to your lovely spouse for 2 years by the time she steps foot on U.S. soil, you will have to do ROC (Removal of Conditions) 30 days before the 2 year mark of her visa stamp :(. Maybe we can all meet up again and have ROC parties :P.

russ and mary- I hope you can get your NOA2 soon and that your little family can be reunited quickly!

anthonyddiggs1- You are so close to Laguna Niguel, you should just drive there and demand the NOA2! :rofl:

Hopefully there will be some good news tomorrow and some "Oh wow, my NOA2 date is from last week" 's tomomrrow!

We are soooooo close to hitting 200 pages! We should have a party!!! A good one, not one of the pity variety. :thumbs:

Tom will provide the beverages and I will kick off the dance party and everyone is free to join in. We should have a potluck of our favorite dishes (from US and abroad) and some good ol' music. Anyone here play the guitar or some other instrument? What else do we need?

Woo hoo pony1076!!! :thumbs: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: You finally got the approval!!!! Now we can be in the same NVC thread together (hopefully not for long for you). Yay!

Dear USCIS,

Please give those still waiting their March NOA2's. For example:

- AnthonyDiggs

- Tena13

and

-Yahya_Marie

This is only a sample of who we still need some good news for. If you'd like a detailed list, I'd be more than happy to share one with you :).


Sincerely,

The Let the Marchers and Marchettes Be Free Coalition

P.S. Have a nice day!!! :rofl:

ak205- It seems like it is taking closer to 2 weeks rather than 1 week. Goooood luck though. You can always call before then and check to make sure. :)

What? NO approvals today?!?!?!?!?! C'mon, you all are pulling my leg!

Ok. I am in a better mood now :).

Here is the dance that everyone should join me in doing :thumbs: :

:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

I think we need a song to go with our dance to let USCIS know we wish for speedy ( :rofl: at this point) approvals for those still waiting!!!!!!

C'mon more approvals!!!! There are plenty of people still itchin for their approvals!!!! Don't be mean USCIS or we will be mean back :).

Congrats on the NOA2 KBcrand1!!!!! :). Oh yeah!!! :dance: :dance:

Ok, I guess I will work up a happy dance to make the rest of the approvals fall out of the sky. I suppose I would need to be in the right mood though otherwise it might backfire. Hopefully I will get some settling news from my husband tonight and will dance till the sun goes down :P. I know all of you who have your NOA2's could join me in the dance.

Woo! C'mon more approvals!

I wonder if we will have to wait until MAIL TIME: "Here's the mail, it never fails. Makes me wanna wag my tail. When it comes I wanna wail MAAIIIILLLLLL." :rofl: :rofl: or if people will be getting texts and e-mails again. :thumbs:

Either way, I wanna :dance: for somebody today!

I hope you don't get stuck in NVC or at the consulate interview scheduling stage.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMarch 2010 CR1 filers
march1- Welcome and yes you can just e-mail it to them. The e-mail to send it to is NVCInquiry@state.gov :).

unclebilly- Congrats on the NOA2! :thumbs: NVC will not contact you. You "get" to contact them by calling 1-603-334-0700. It is taking around a week to two weeks for the AVR to have the case number (from your NOA2 date). So since you got the NOA2 on the 16th, it might be there as soon as yesterday or maybe it will be there by next Friday. The line is almost always busy so don't give up. Once you get your case number, make sure to speak to an operator and give them your e-mail address and your wife's e-mail address. This will speed things along. :). Good luck with everything!

NVC is slower right now but as long as your husband has everything ready to go and stays on top of things, it shouldn't be too long :). Certainly not 4-5 months. :P.

:thumbs: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Congrats!!!! Yay!!!!!! How exciting!!! Just right after I taught you how to dance too :P. Woo!!!! I'd pounce on ya but...oh what the hay *POUNCE* :blush: All right!!!! How awesome!

Once your brain returns to your head, you will be ok. It is such a weird feeling to get that notice and then instantly forget everything you read during the last 4 months for the next step.

C'mon more good news!!! Looks like will be bustin moves a bunch around here. :).

Now I have some more Marchers for the July NVC and jeez, it is almost time for someone to make an August NVC thread. I will be dancing for all of you through your interviews (if you *fingers crossed* stay that long on here).


Woo!!! Jeez Tom. I am still shell shocked. I'm still waiting for you to say you are joking (but glad that you aren't).

Tom and John- My dance moves must remain secret. No one can copy this -------> :dance: It is a very hard dance that has been passed down from generation to generation since the beginning of time. :thumbs: :hehe:

Zeban- Big congrats to you! :star: :thumbs: Get ready for NVC! :dance:

I'm glad to see that more Marchers were approved but just unawares. Nice surprise in the mailbox to find that out.

C'mon more good news :).

Awww thanks rvince! This is a special group indeed :). I will be glad to watch all of you make it on through to the interview and wave to you in your (respective) airplane rides (or your spouse alone) to the U.S.

The Jesal- The NVC is slow right now. Instead of 7-10 days it is seeming more like 14 days. See, at least you don't have to wait 2 weeks to get the case number. Some of your time was "cut out" by not getting the notice until now.

Good luck to everyone! Let's keep the good news coming!!!!

Jess, you can call them and see what they say. The automated system might tell you that your case was approved or that your case was received on such and such a date. The USCIS operators like to tell you that they can't tell you much as the beneficiary but I'm sure if you tell them that your husband is deployed, they should be able to help you out. :).
