BCIS status updated

AT last the status has been updated - it now says approved so hopefully we should receive the approval in the post.

1st NOA - 23 May 2003
27 October 2003 - receive letter from NVC saying approved petition to be fowarded within the next week
31st October - status says "approved on 31st October"

Just strikes me as odd that we should receive the NVC letter on 27th October and we weren't actually approved until 31st October?

Re: BCIS status updated

I agree with you, it does seem a little odd.
I guess the important thing is you are through both your sevice center and NVC, thats what counts. :)

Hi:

I have a big YAWN on this one. There is a difference between actual approval and data entry.

Your case was approved and sent on. That is wonderful.

The worrysome cases are where you do get the BCIS Notice and then NVC never gets it.

Regarding this- I was wondering whether the NVC notification will suffice as proper documentation of approval for filing for AOS...

Sure my fiancÃ© can do without this NOA 2 from Vermont at the moment- one thing less to worry about losing... - however, any experiences about not having a copy of the actual NOA 2 causing some additional headache???
