I JUST GOT ANOTHER TOUCH RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



whats going onnn?????



I got touched 2 days in a row and the next day I got the email saying we were approved. I got the email on 12/25 and they weren't even open. So hopefully tonight or tomorrow you will have your approval! Good Luck!

the same thing happened to me when i was approved. a touch on monday, a touch on tuesday. no status update but i received the NOA2 in the mail that friday. My case still says pending on CRIS but I received the hardvopy NOA2. I think that consecutive touches is a good sign.

Service request is a stupid thing and I would advice everybody against it. It's a way for them to sit back and postpone your case for a later date.
We phoned again, trying to find out if we are in security checks or not, and the guy on the phone kept telling us to wait for the 3 months mentioned in the service request reply and he didn't understand why my fiance got nervous. The service request is the last information for our case and we have to wait for 3 months-right.
At least my fiance is nervous now and he finally decided to write to the senator. Fingers crossed!


Stepha, I am happy you guys contacted the senator! I keep my fingers crossed for you. And for everybody, for that matter! good.gif

Yup, I noticed it was getting a little crowded here, and looks like nobody wants to leave. C'mmon, people... it's time to say good-bye ! tongue.gif Sara, that was especially for you! heart.gif




no offense intended cuz u are all a great bunch of people but i really do want out of this room whistling.gif the sooner the better as far as im concerned tongue.gif
sara



yeah me too, i want get out whistling.gif but whit my NOA2 in hand......


me too! i was sick yesterday then was up last night for 5 hrs of severe tooth pain. I called uscis today but their computers were down. then i had to get an emergency root canal cause my pain was from a tooth abscess. thats why i was feeling sick, from the infection. cost me $1500. so just got home. guess i'll try uscis tomorrow. Egads, what a bad week this is starting out to be!

sorry that you've had a hard week PB. I hope you that you receive some news on your case soon!

Good luck!!! Fingers are crossed.


Thanks! Mine too! I can't stop checking the site now!

Hello 6 monthers,

I just wanted to leave a little message of encourgement and support. It's so awful that you've been waiting this long for a NOA2. I'm at the 4 months stage and have no problem waiting yet. I'd be dying at 6 months though. People are constantly complaining about waiting for 1, 2, 3 months but I really think that 6+ months is ridiculous. I hope that you all receive your NOA2s soon and that the steps after that speed by. Best, best, best, best of luck!

Life is full of twists and turns. It seems like the more you like doing something at work the less likely you are to be able to do it in the long run. You get promoted away from it.

it's weird sometimes i get VJ email updates and sometimes I don't. Great hearing all the good news though!

How is everyone? Did anyone hear from ErinmeetsJohnny? How is everyone doing with their employment situations?

Jeremy and I are doing well. Jeremy found a job in November. He's ready to move on though. We're doing well.

We haven't yet. The plan here is to just pay and have a pro do it.

yeah we're having a pro do it but he didnt seem that knowledgable about the Foreign Income part so I called the IRS and they answered our questions. We wanted to make sure that Jeremy qualified for the exclusion.

Have any of you started figuring out your tax situation? We have started and it is so confusing - particularly the foreign income exclusion...

Hi everyone and happy christmas! Congrats to all of you for coming so far on this frustrating visa journey! We cannot wait for the same to come to us!

I hope you don't mind me cutting in here, I'm a July 09 Filer at VSC and at the moment we awaiting our interview date at the London Embassy. I just wondered if anyone with a bit more experience could answer my query... I have just had my medical in London a few days ago and was told my vaccination history isn't up to date and I will require Tetanus and MMR for AOS. Theres lots of talk on our forum about having to find a civil surgeon to complete your paperwork. But no-one really knows for sure. I plan to have my missed vaccinations carried out at my local doctors but was planning to just provide proof from my doctor that I've had them, in with the AOS package, not get a civil surgeoun to transfer the information to another form. I have heard that many people don't get an RFE if they go about it this way... How did you all get on with this issue? RFE or not?

Thanks to you all so much!! good.gif

We had the civil surgeon do it to avoid an RFE. We went to a local civil surgeon and it only cost $40.

Congrats on the social security numbers and the card productions. As well as the little one on the way, Shannon and Nick!

We had our US reception this weekend and it went off without a hitch. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Was it as much a cultural experience for your husbands/wives as it was for us? I swear, Sebastian could not eat enough stuffing!

Jeremy had a good time. We used to spend Thanksgiving together in France since I'd take lots of vacation time then but this year was his first with my whole family. His favorite was the sweet potatoes. We brought home lots of leftovers of that.
