It can take a few weeks to get the NOA1. If you sent payment by check, see if it was cashed; that way you know for sure they received your application.

Thanks so much--- got noa1 on march 14th---- the count down is on--- lol

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportshow does the transfer work?

Awww that's awesome!!! Good Luck!!! I only stayed in a hotel one of my trips and I liked it a lot...South Gap Hotel...Orbitz.com is a good site to check out prices...also right now there is a huge event going on called Crop Over and it ends Aug 5. Because of this Carnival hotels may be more expensive...keep me posted and let me know if you have any other questions :)


Thanks for the quick response.
Girl, I know about Crop Over too well loooool.
I visited Barbados twice, but briefly--cruise and lay over.
I actually just got a list of nearby hotels. I will look into those on orbits as you advised.
I'm a March filer at VSC.
Waiting patiently
Praying constantly, as we all are.
Let's keep in touch throughout the journey

All the best!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportshow does the transfer work?

 
Hi,
 
Sadly there is not a different number to call---I was transferred to Texas on Jun 21st as well with an NOA1 date of 1/31--I actually called them today and I was advised that the timeline does not start over and that Texas will abide by the same processing time as Vermont--hope this helps--dont get discouraged--they seem to really be working through them :-)




Hi,

My fiancé will have his interview in Barbados some time soon (fingers crossed). Can you recommend any nearby, inexpensive hotels/inns where he can stay??

Thanking you in advance

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK-1 Visa Process - Attempt to Clarify

Hello everyone,

 

I sent in the I-129f at the beginning of May and on May 16th i received the notice that the Alien Registration Number has been changed.  This happened after I had received the NOA1 which was dated May 10th.

 

Now, obviously the Alien Registration Number is a good thing since it is my understanding that this number is what eventually becomes your Green Card number, assuming everything goes smoothly and the visa is approved.

 

One thing I am attempting to determine is the timeline for the K-1.  It seems that the processing time can vary greatly, from 2-3 months to a year. 

 

I have read that files are processed based on the order yours is placed in a stack.  Yet, I have read that it may not be so straightforward since the main job of case officers is to simply determine that the marriage is legitimate and meetings the requirements.  With that being said, the CO's could very well go quickly through certain one's while taking their time on others.  I say this as I would hope and assume that they do handle more than one case at a time.

 

If it is the case that they all handle many cases at one time, does anyone have an idea of the average amount of cases a CO would handle?

 

Just a bit of background on my case.   Me and my fiance'e have been together since September 2007 and did the long distance relationship since then, travelling multiple times a year to go see each other, staying any where from one week to 3 months together at a time.  We sent in the standard information, plus, what is probably overkill, 60 time stamped photos of the two of us since September 2007, including some of us with her family and mine.

 

Like everyone else, I'm simply trying to determine how long we will need to wait. :)

 

Thanks for all of the feedback!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVermont Processing Time

I just checked the USCIS processing times and it certainly does say that Vermont is now at 5 months, effective April 30th!!  But it also says the National Average is 64 months.....So I'm not sure what to make of it! lol


Lux44MaleItaly2013-06-19 09:12:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJune 25th Your Alien Registration Number Has Changed?

It's a step in the process.  It seems that in the past they used to assign a A# towards the end but now it appears they are assigning it upfront.  Or at least they are notifying everyone within the first few weeks that an A# has been assigned.

 

According to the immigration officer I spoke with (and other research I did) the A# is what will eventually become your fiances i.d. number for the green card and what not. 

 

My fiance was given an A# on May 16th and we're still waiting for NOA2.


Lux44MaleItaly2013-06-26 11:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportshow many months did u receive your NOA2?

It depends on many factors.  A backlog in the system (which they seem to be clearing up with the transfers to Texas); how quick the case officer works; if you submitted a complete package (no need for RFE) and the straightforwardness of the case.  The case officer handles multiple cases at a time and if the relationship is easier for them to determine to be legitimate (good, longer-term evidence) then the quicker they can approve your case.  Military can be quicker and extreme hardship cases are expedited but to be considered for an extreme hardship is almost impossible for most.

 

There have been quite a few people registered on this site who have been approved lately who submitted in March and April.  So a 3-month approval is possible, again, depending on those factors.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsIgors List

Like Nina & Baptiste said, Igor's List all depends on how quickly and if VJ members update their timeline.  To be honest, I'm probably going to not update my timeline for a while after I get my NOA2! :D

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMy experience on what to look for before an "APPROVAL"

Unfortunately, or fortunately (depending on which side you're on) nothing is in a real order.  Depends on the individual case officer, evidence given, straightforwardness of the case.  But it does appear that a lot of the recent transfers are getting approved relatively quickly.  So just hope you're one of those.

I'm new here. Please help...

God Bless you all.
