Hey guys...

Oana31, im still at NVC...I got my NOA2 6 weeks ago and i've been stuck there for 5 weeks and 3 days...my pacience is running out and since i can call NVC everyday, i do that and everytime i hear that "We are sorry but ur case is still in AP, and there is no time frame", i feel like i have something bitter in my mouth...

Someone here asked if calling their senator helps when ur case is at NVC...by advise is: wait a week and then call ur senator or congressman, whoever,,, for me is kinda late now, but if i knew i would stay 6 weeks here i would have totally call them after the first week...The longest k1 case that stayed at NVC so far, as much as i know, is cdneh who stayed their for 7 weeks and 2 days and im kinda getting there...anyway guys, just pray for me since im getting weaker and this reflects in my daily talks with my babe...

praying for you,
Nate

im still stuck at NVC, i've been there for more than 4 weeks now, i just hope somehow GOd will work all this out this next week, or the next weeks the most so we wont have to postpone the wedding...
La multi ani si tie... sper ca ai avut un timp fain de sarbatori... i kinda stayed at home on these holidays (except for the new year event of course) working for school cos i really want not to fail any exam on this semester so i can take my final college exam when i come back next year...

well, keep in touch...

Oana, how were you able to talk to an officer from the service center directly? We tried it last night. We talked to the girl forever and she was nice and said she would love to help us but there is no way to connect us with the service center and that they don't do that...USCIS told us the same as you have heard now: you are assigned, no problems so far, you should hear something in 2-4 weeks. Well that was the first of december. Now it has been 5 weeks (and 7 after being assigned) and still nothing. I hope we didn't get assigned to someone who is sick or on a maternity leave.


Panterchen, I know you don't care anymore about the answer to this question kicking.gif but I'll answer: my fiance is in the Army, he mentioned that to the person who initially answered the phone. So, I guess that is why they were kind enough to give him some info.

Nate, how is it going??? LA MULTI ANI!! good.gif

we started thinking about what we need to do about changing the wedding date since we already rent it the park where we wanted to get married,

She will try to talk with the manager of that park to see if it's possible to delay it a lil bit when it's free again or should we just pay another fee for another day...anyway, about the wedding invitations we didnt send them yet but we told everyone about march 14... anyway wink.gif

still we both trust God that He will give us the visa at the right time...

thanks panterchen...

my worry is that i will not be able to get to my own wedding in time biggrin.gif... the thing is that people there usually wait for 5-6 weeks which means 1 month and a half,,,so let's say the half of month is december and then the entire january...hopefully my papers will get to bucharest in 4 days after that and then i would still have time like 2 weeks here in romania to have the interview and get the visa, since i planned on leaving on february 18th...

i dont know, it's simply sad what these people are doing: 2 RFEs and now an AP...hmm such is life...God is in control !!!

Well guys i hope u have a great time on these holidays

Nate

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJUNE 2008 K1 FILERS CSC ONLY!!
well, looks like NVC had a gift for me today: an AP that can bring me a delay somewhere from a couple of weeks up to a couple of months...When i got the news on the phone from that lady there i felt like something hit me in the head...but after i hang up i felt like a voice was telling me to remember how thankful i was to God when i got the NOA2 and how close to Him i felt back then, so i should do the same thing in hard times too: it's not like i can change anything but do it worse by worrying so : DONT WORRY BUT PRAY AND TRUST GOD IS AT WORK...

The best wishes
and His blessings...

what does AP stand for ?

every time i call them i tell them my name and my fiancee and our birthdays and our NCV case id...and eveytime they tell the same thing that they are still working on it...i imagine they are actually working on it not just say that so they could get rid of me...So far i talked with at least 4 different persons there and all of them were very nice...not like the lady from the bucharest consulate...she answers the questions as soon as possible kinda like trying to get rid of me, then she shows me how bored she is, and stuff like sad and bored voice....anyway,

Natan, did you ask them directly if you are in AP at NVC? You should. Some filers are. There is a seperate topic here in the National Visa Center section.

hey guys...

i dont know what to think about NVC anymore, kiwie... i did some research here and there and everyone was saying that after you get NOA2, NVC will take only a week to send it to the local consulate but in my case i've been waiting for this to happen the last 3 weeks... i received NOA2 on december 3rd and since then no word from NVC except: "We are still processing it and this process doesnt have a time frame", anyway, ill continue to call them every other day, since it doesnt cost me to much: 1 cent per minute... anyway, God knows why this happens and as im sure you all know: GOD'S PLAN IS ALWAYS PERFECT...

enjoy the last christmas unmarried, since we all, with Lord's help, will get married next year sometimes (GO MARCH )

Ok, so here are the answers to my fiance visa related questions for the embassy:

1. they will send us the forms that we need to fill so we will not have to fill and print the forms to a laser printer as i was asked to do for my tourist visa.
2. i can give them my cellphone number and they will call me when they get the package at the consulate in order for me to come and pick it up myself since i dont trust the romanian post office (i had some unpleasant experiences regarding the romanian post office)
3. the medical check is available for 1 year
4. i can set the interview date for my k1 visa 7-10 days after they receive the completed forms they asked for from my package.
5. I-134 (Affidavit of support) can be also handwritten but only with a black ink (and notarized of course)


hope it helps some of you wink.gif

well, the hand writing is visible and my babe says that in english the word "print" is used also for handwriting, but anyway i called the us embassy in bucharest and they told me that i should call tomorrow since they only answer fiancee questions by 12pm...
so i will call them tomorrow, since i have like 5 questions to ask them... i will also ask them about how long is an affidavit of support valid...

if anyone else has other question that they would like me to ask for them at the embassy, write me till tomorrow at 10am (Romania time of course) tongue.gif

Natan, I have mine at home and I haven't even looked at it. I think I should do that.

I would say if the handwritten stuff is clearly visible and readable it should be ok-just my unqualified opinion.

Does anyone here know how long the affidavit is valid? My fiancé brought it over end of Oct but what if I have my interview in February or even later??

hey everyone...

ok, so i finally received the I-134 affidavit of support from my fiancee but here comes the problem: up there on the form it is written: ANSWER ALL ITEMS. TYPE OR PRINT IN BLACK INK... but she wrote the form with handwriting with a black ink pen...and then she legalized it...

now, what did you other guys did? did your fiancee or fiance wrote this form on the computer and print it out or handwriting? the thing is that it's legalized but still...

do you think i should tell my fiancee to send me another I-134 form? printed and legalized ?

Hey, guys!

We too have a new infopass appointment for Dec 19 (after 178 days of waiting then) to get answers. I mean we just get more and more worried. We are assigned to an officer and yet nothing happens for over a month? #######
We just hope to find out if by then we are in security checks or whatever. I mean really. Sure NOA 2 could come any day now but we just want to know what's going on with our case so we can reschedule our wedding if necessary and me I would like to get another job then....(because the one I have now is only good temporarily and #######)
On day 180 we will contact our congressman and the supervising committee of USCIS. One of those things we hope will bring success.

Today is a really bad day. EVer since I got up two hours ago, I feel stressed and am in a bad mood. I hate this uncertainty.

P.S: Someone here said that the call center agents said infopass isn't recommended. Sure, it will not speed up your process in any kind of way but you will at least find out whether your case is stuck some place or whether you are already assigned to an officer. So for some people (like us) this helps.

Thank you so much for your support and prayers panterchen, oana31, kiwie and stepha... it's good knowing someone is praying for you...Someone once said that the most miserable person is the person for which no one is praying for...Im blessed having you, having my family and friends praying for me...

As for you Evian dont lose hope, our God is a mighty God..that's exactly what i told my fiancee too, like imagine how would we be like if we would have get married two months after we met, then God would have not grow us as much as He did so far, in faith , in patience and trust on him, but instead he chose this visa thing to teach us some elementary things about the Christian daily walk...After all, he could have chose another way to teach us all these and maybe that way would have been more painful...think about it...

As oana31 said, God just expected a lil bit more faith in him coming from us so He can do His miracle...and it's so true...

Yesterday i felt like watching again "Facing the giants" for like the 3rd time so far and there are so many new cool things i noticed in the movie...for us k1 appliers , the giants are the worries, the stress, the impatience, the longing, etc... and we need to face them, but not let them do their game, but making our own game, knowing we have the best COUCH... I dont know too much about football, cos im a european and i love soccer, but im sure the same idea goes for soccer too...

So continue to pray for me, as i will continue to pray for you too Oana31, Kiwie, Stepha, Panterchen, Evian and you too MARM...

So if i got the NOA2 that means you should get it sometimes soon, so dont lose hope: GOD'S TIME IS ALWAYS PERFECT...

ok. let's say that i buy that with if I went to US previously it will gonna take longer for me to get the NOA2, but the thing is that i got an RFE on november 12 for just a simple empty box in which my fiancee should have write NONE, so she wrote NONE right away and sent it back while she was still at the post office...and they annouced us 8 days later they received the RFE...so since november 20 till now there are more than 2 weeks...on visajourney the lawayers here say that it should take us no more than 10 days to get NOA2...i think they are simply slow and just try and invent new excuses but such is life...God's plan is always perfect...no doubt, just sometimes is hard to look beyond what the eyes see.

Im gonna have my wedding in march too...so there are 3 of us now.. it will be march 14th, in a lil town close to LA...

i checked my visajourney timeline this morning while i was talking with the love of my life and i had like a bad surprise: my NOA2 timeline expectation jumped from November 27-December 6 up to December 18-January 12... i dont really get it why because lately they've been moving pretty fast in California too with the visa processing and they got to July 20...anyway, God is in control and nothing is surprise for Him...and even if for USCIS im just a simple "number" and many times i feel like that, for God im a son...

I'm glad that you are back to thinking positive!!!! I'm back and forth all the time, hoping that we'll get our NOA2 before Christmas so that we'll make it in time for the wedding at the end of march.
I'm also looking forward to seeing my love on Christmas and spending time with him. It'll be good and hopefully get my mind of the visa thing for a little while.
Maybe we'll even see some things happening next week!!!!

I'm still praying for all of us....
