Yehaaaaa Brian and Isa who have received their NOA1 the 07 of June has been approved so USCIS is coming closer to us!!!!! One more month and it will start to touch our cases there is hope kicking.gif


Sorry, but I do not think anyone should assume that June filers are being processed yet.

Brian and & Isabel submitted their petition on May 9. Their NOA1 was delayed until June 7. NOA1 delays are common for Texas & Nebraska filers but they do not usually increase overall processing time.

There were 9 CSC approvals dated Sep 24 with an average processing time of 143 days from the submittal date. The submittal dates ranged from April 29 to May 15 and NOA1 dates ranged from May 8 to June 11. Brian and Isabel sumitted on May 9 and were also approved on Sep 24, 138 days from submittal.

Everyone can reach their own conclusions, but it is seems to me that it will be a while before CSC gets to June petitions.


Well looking at the 2 past week approval at CSC i'm more optimist , and even when I'm not i try to find hope and light in those who are approved right now.... I expect my approval for end of November which is "only" 2 month ahead ..... I understand that you don't want unrealistic hopes....

50 days here lilou, only about 60-100 days to go (hoping for less than 60, maybe some miracle will happen and floods of approvals will be coming through!). blink.gif

just while I'm thinking about it -

my parents are coming to visit in a couple of weeks, and of course as well as a great chance to catch up, it's an excellent opportunity to get them to bring any paperwork or original documents I might need for later... I've got mum to get my birth certificate out, but other than that, is there anything that would be wise to get? I have no prior marriages or convictions or anything that would need a certificate (though can they bring a police check form? do they even have the time to get this?)...
I asked my mother to check with my doctor to see if they've got anything on file re innoculations - I've had German measles, and mumps, AND had the rubella shot, so I'll be annoyed if I have to get it again! (which I probably will)

any more suggestions?

yes if you have any diploma from school it could be useful to have them and if time to have them translated and certified. This all I can think about right now ( i just woke up I'm on night shift right now) so my mind is extremely slow wacko.gif

You are nuts folks!!! dont put your future in jepody for the sake of a ceremony, jet the visa first, then get married, why the rush?


As I have previously mentioned (a lot because I don't want to look like more of an idiot than I already feel!) we booked our wedding before we realised how long the visa process would take and before we knew there was going to be a fee increase causing an increased number of applications... I don't feel like I am putting my future in jeopardy - if we don't get the visa in time for our ceremony then we will make alternative arrangements - I'm not suddenly going to cancel my marriage and relationship because we don't get a visa in time... I'm just trying to figure out all my options so I can make an informed decision if and when the time comes that I need to make one...

The dresses are all gorgeous!!! I am so so impressed!! They are beautiful and what I love is the fact that they are all so different!!! Here's a link to mine:

http://www.sachajame...james_D1157.htm

And as for my ring... lemme find it...

http://www.generousg..._dia_3stone.jpg

It's actually gone up in price as well - I swear Jeremy only paid half of what the asking price is now biggrin.gif Bargain!! It's "14k White Gold Three Stone Diamond Ring featuring a .30ct round Pink Diamond in the center with two .15ct round Diamonds (G-H in color, SI in clarity). This ring would be .60tcw." according to the website biggrin.gif

Oh this is just soo exciting!! Bring on the NOA2s!!!



I love your dress .... In fact like you i love all the dress they are gorgeous and all different we are all going to look so good and our man too yeeeaaah USCIS Come on we are ready we have been patient..... SPEED UP!!!!!

I don't have engagement rings as I really don't wear rings. Going to make exception for wedding rings though. We both getting titanium rings with the kanji symbol for love on them. Nicks engraving will be in blue and mine in antique gold. Both rings will be highly polished silver colour. Oh and my tiara is victorian and has been passed down the family and my veil was my mums so got the "something old" part covered.

With regards to not getting visa by wedding....I have until 3rd May so if no sign of it by early april then I'll make a fuss but will have been 9months by which point I'll be making so much fuss anyways.

Yeaaah titanium ring are beautiful my fiancé 's one will be in titanium.... Too cool that you have a family tiara.... I really hope you will have your wedding as planned, I saw your dress it is a really beautifull on I like the middel-age look on it....

I'm really sorry for you that you have to deal with such problems because of USCIS blacklog.....
I really hope that they will work hard and finish the May fillers for the end of this month so we could have hope for mid November till mi-December for us...
The only thing I can say is to be ready with all the paper for when the embassy will contact you so by chance we will have our K1 in Febuary....

It seems we are all down a little bit crying.gif
does anyone have a good news to share so we could share some joy .....
days seems like month and months like years while waiting, i keep thinking one day.......... one day it will be your turn.... usually when I'm down my dear one bring me up, and when it is him I do the same, but today we were both on skype missing each other so much it was hard to talk without a tear....
Tomorrow will be better , come on USCIS give us hope , GET BACK TO WORK!!!! girlwerewolf2xn.gif


You know I have imagined a million times and played it in my head what it will be like when I am at the airport to receive him when he finally gets here luv.gif


I know exactly what you're talking about .... Just like thinking about that time when i will say "I do" knowing that we are finally there bring emotion.... well I just sees that the late May fillers have received some NOA2 ( one of them was 30/05/2007) so it is a good news we are getting closer. My fiancé and I are hoping for a weeding in March or April....


"Patience is a virtue seldom found in woman never found in man", unless your chinese then its just normal. Dont worry guys I know it it feels horrid now, but we will get there, and take strength in that this will make your love stronger, more secure, more real. Its just a road bump in life, nothing more. Remember Nelson Mandella had to wait 25 years to be with his wife again, so we are looking at no time really, dont look at the clock, look at how you can be ready to be the best spouse for your love.


you are right just having an hard time today..... ClockWatch2.gif

And it is just under 5 months until I get married - how scary is that?!?!?!?!

Yes you are right the time past hopefully but so slowly when everyday several times a day you are waiting and hoping that when you will get on the USCIS you will see something new about your case. crying.gif

I really hope everything will be fine for your wedding , today gives me hope because like I sayed already a bunch of May fillers has been approved and it is good for us too if they start back to work a little bite faster ( or should i say "if they start back working point laughing.gif )

Lets pray that your embassy will be fast when they will receive our file I wish you the best star_smile.gif

My personnal opinion is that in fact what counts about the date is not the more important thing here,
we are on a friendly place trying to support each other while we wait for our visa, we try to give hope when one of us is done and to help those who need it. rose.gif

The timeline is there for that and everyone is aware that it is just a help this won't give you the perfect prediction on when you will have NOA2 or K1.... no0pb.gif

heart.gif I love this place it helps me keeping on, and i love being able to go peek at May fillers place and chair all the joy like today when around 10 of them suddenly received their approval...

I guess they deserve a bit of advance notice so to speak smile.gif It means they may get their NOA2 before us but it might also mean they take longer to sort out all the stuff that could take some of us a few weeks smile.gif

*tries to be altruistic for some good karma biggrin.gif*


If by "sorting out all the stuff" you mean trying to stay alive and possibly crossing a closed border into Syria, then yeah, I think they deserve a little extra consideration. I don't begrudge them their fast approval for 1 second. Their situation sort of puts our worries about missing wedding dates and spending holidays apart into perspective doesn't it?

That last comment is a general comment and I direct it at myself as well as to everyone else. I hope no one will think I am attacking them. unsure.gif

Advice For Your Interview

The following information may not apply to all Embassies/Consulates .. it is just a general guideline

1. Do not volunteer information. For most questions, the shorter and more direct the answers are, the shorter the interview and the higher the chance of success. If the question is a yes or no question, give yes or no answers only. If the question is a simple question like "What is your name?" answer simply with your name.

2. If you do not know the answer to a question, do not lie. Say, "I don't know the answer to that at this time." or "I don't remember."

3. The answer to many questions will be in the papers that were sent in the petitions. Questions like, "what are your husband's parent's names". They will expect you to know the information given in your petitions. Review everything in your paperwork with your wife before her interview, and do a mock interview to see how the information may be applied.

4. Avoid saying "I think . . .". Women do this a lot. The examiner will expect you to know not be unsure, of your answers. Also, avoid adding "umm", "you know" and "ahh" type fillers to your speech.

5. When applicable, don't just state, demonstrate. If the examiner asks a question that can be answered with a document or photograph(s), provide it along with your answer.

For example, if the examiner asks, "What does your family think of your husband?", give them a picture or two with your answer; "They like him very much. Here is a picture of him with my mother and father at my parent's home."

Or, "How many attended your wedding?" Answer, "(give a number, then say) We have some lovely wedding photos of our guests having fun. Here are a few that I can show you."

6. Give American answers for dates and times. 12/24/07, not 24/12/07.

7. Dress well, but not overdressed.

8. Try to appear calm, well organized, and friendly. Nervousness raises suspicions.

9. Remain focused. If the examiner makes jokes, smile and enjoy, but do not make jokes too.

10. Make proper eye contact when conversing with the examiner, and try to control your own facial expressions so that your face remains pleasant and cordial.

11. Be audible so that your examiner doesn't have to ask you to repeat your answers.

12. Organize your papers in a way that will allow you to retrieve them easily and quickly. Examiners appreciate order and someone who doesn't waste their time.

13. When the interview is over, always ask for the results. "What should I now tell my husband about my visa status after our interview?" Before you leave, have them explain any papers they give to you and/or any procedures they will be taking to complete your case. Try to get the examiner's name for future reference, if needed. Write it down.

14. If the interview is in another city than the one you live in, arrive a day or two early to complete biometrics and get the results of your medical exam.

15. Arrive early to the consulate, but also be prepared to wait for a time past your scheduled interview appointment time. Be careful of thieves around the consulate if you have to carry cash. Bring ID; you cannot enter without it.

16. It is rare for the consulate to give you a visa on the spot. Be prepared to return for it or have it delivered to you, if approved.

17. Many Embassies/Consulates do not allow cell phones or food inside. Eat well before your interview and be prepared to leave your cell phone outside.


For the interview, your SO should bring everything listed in the document sent from your embassy/consulate. As well you need to include the following.

1. Original marriage documents, translations and certifications.

2. Formal, long form birth certificate.

3. Copies of any divorce records or death decrees of former SO(s).

4. Passport, with an expiration date of no earlier than 6 months. Try to have more than 6 months before expiration.

5. Police certificate with "Nothing" written on it, indicating no criminal record

6. Fingerprints (consulate will instruct you regarding how, when and where these will be taken). There is a separate fee for this at some embassies/consulates.

7. Medical exam results (consulate will instruct you regarding how, when and where this will be taken). There is a fee for this. Make sure you get a copy from the medical examiner.

8. Passport type photos of each of you. (consulate will instruct you regarding these)
