I am sorry to know that you are still waiting for your NOA2. Please hang in there and your day will soon come. I would like to give you support and encouragement but may not be able to verbally express it well. If i were you, I would probably stop breathing already because of the agony of waiting. It's been too long.

Your time will soon come. I'll pary for you.

God is great.

:whistle: Touched :thumbs:


:dance: APPROVED :dance:

The email came in at about 12:30 last night. Now its all down hill from here. Off to NVC and then to Russia. Once Russia has it they schedule the interview upon receipt. I feel like a big weight has been taken off my shoulders. SWEET


I know what you mean -- We both felt so relieved as well. I in particular was concerned about RFEs.

Congratulations to your NOA2. :dance:

Hello everyone.
I’m gathering the papers to send the NOA3 (Package 3) and I have one question.
The picture I have – it is the same one I used to send to CSC. It shows my face, but not my ears. I know that at the day of interview I must have a picture showing both ears (without earrings’ if possible), but in that phase, can I use my current photo (since it was approved by CSC)?

Best Regards folks!

I do feel for you.

I myself experienced a strong sense of helplessness last week while waiting for my transcript to arrive. I was closer and closer to lose my sanity waiting for only one week. I can't imagine how you have been able to get through the lengthy wait with all the senses intact. I admire you so much for your strength and patience.

I will keep you in my prayer. rose.gif rose.gif

I know that you don't sign below the line...but do you attach a picture as well?


don't worry about whether you should attach a picture on the form. you can do it either way.

i didn't attach the pic on the form. i didn't sign on any form. i took with me 2 pictures to my interview and the CO attached one to the form and returned the other to me. the CO told me to sign where my signature was needed.

Good luck. rose.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMy summary, latest update, and thanks to you guys
Hello everyone:

I finally received my visa yesterday after a few trips to the embassy.

September 5th: the first trip was for my interview (as some of you may have known about the details). all required documents were fine and no questions asked about them. the problem arose as I had been in school in the US for 8 years and didn't have enough proof at my interview of my legal stay during those 8 years. So, I was given a letter with Section 221 (g) marked for proof (i.e., transcripts) that i was in status (by enrolling in and going to school) during those 8 years.

September 24th: the second trip was 18 days following my interview. this trip, other than submitting my transcripts, i hoped to know if they would grant me the visa and when to pick it up. i was told to come back the following monday to hear the result instead of being told to come pick up the visa. I called my fiance to let him know. he then emailed the embassy and got a reply in less than 24 hours saying that i could come pick up the visa on friday (the same week, which was yesterday --Sept 28th).

September 28th: I received the visa without any hassles or questions asked.

My fiance and I would like to thank you all for your help and support throughout this lengthy and difficult process. Without you guys, we would not have been able to get through this. My fiance has been on cloud nine since i got the visa. smile.gif

Good luck to the rest of you who are waiting for your loved ones to reunite. May your journey end successfully and fast.

See you on AOS forum.

May God be with you during this journey.

my interview is next wednesday. i'm so ready for it. hopefully, i won't have "surprises" to share with you afterward. smile.gif

Ladywhite...I actually posted in the Sawasdee thread as well, specifically to you...


qbertz7:

Thanks a lot !

I hope to see my case number on the embassy web site's update next week. So, I'll wait a little. If nothing is there next week, I'll have my fiance call DOS to find out. I sent out my packet 3 to the embassy the same day your girl did, but I am not sure if it would arrive at the embassy safely. call me a paranoia !! LOL

Because my 2 year rule will be up on Sept 2, I asked to have my interview set up after that date. So, i hope to have a week or so after August is over to get all the needed stuff from my fiance. He decides to file an extension now (instead of waiting a bit longer) to get his 2006 tax return and then sends it to me.

I totally agree-- it's better safe than sorry.

Good luck with everything !! Thanks again. I'll keep you updated.

Just in case, could you please tell me the number to call DOS? Thanks.

Also I wanted to share the good news that we finally got an interview date! August 30th...


How did you know your interview date? I am so curious. early this week, you said you didn't see your case on the web site's update and the site has not been re-updated since Aug 6. Did your girl receive packet 4 in the mail?

Well, congratulations on your scheduled interview. Obviously, your girl and i won't have the interview on the same date !!

Good luck !!

P.S. Thanks for the response re: 2006 tax return. i think you should consider including your W2 for the past three years for her to take to her interview.

I got an email from the embassy that they actually received the petition on July 16 and sent out packet 3 on July 25, so I guess it won't be so bad if my girls waits until she receives it to send it back in, should be today or tomorrow hopefully.


Congrats to you on packet 3 that is on its way to your girl. hopefully, it will be either today (Friday here) or tomorrow (Saturday). if not, it will be wednesday when the post offices are back to work again..Good luck

Thanks so much!


again, you're welcome (i thought you might be able to read some thai :) )

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInterview time for MARCH filers

Thanks for the info ladywhite, all things I am thankfully already aware of.

I really really want an interview date and it looks like I'll have to wait though cause my girl is being really rigid on not sending anything to the embassy until she receives packet 3. I told her about this site and all the people that do it, and she says you are all liars! lol...I've seen it take up to 2 weeks for packet 3 to actually get to the beneficiary, if I have to wait at least 2 more weeks for an interview date I'm gonna go crazy! Ah well, I'll have to keep chipping away and convince her to send it. :thumbs:


you're welcome and sorry for telling what you're already aware of. you lived in thailand for years and know a lot. :)

tell her to go check out http://www.usvisa4th...wforum.php?f=19

it is a web site just like VJ but specific for Thais who are fiance(e)s of US citizens. nearly all of the postings are in thai.

i hope she gets convinced after checking out the site. :)

ladywhiteFemaleThailand2007-07-26 12:07:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInterview time for MARCH filers

Yes! I just got off the phone with my girl, the embassy called her today to confirm her address and will be sending packet 3! On the downside I told her to send packet 3 to the embassy tomorrow, but now she doesn't want to because the lady she spoke to told her not too:(...oh well I'll just have to convince her otherwise :whistle:


i'm wondering now if the embassy is going to call me to confirm my address. they may not because they actually wrote it in their email to me as the address to which they'll send packet 3.

do you mean you told your girl to submit packet 3 in person tomorrow? i don't think we are allowed to walk in just to send in packet 3. if i remember it correctly, we are allowed to walk in (during their designated hours) to submit stuff only when it is documents additionally requested by them.

the embassy's web site updates the scheduled interviews every tuesday or wednesday. there is the lastest update:

i hope your fiancee gets an interview date soon.

Thanks a lot, guys. I was relieved that our case has finally arrived at the embassy. i had been concerned of it getting lost on its way.

i am a former j-1 holder and my 2 year rule will be fulfilled on Sept 2. so, even though i mail the checklist and other documents back to the embassy tomorrow, my interview date must be scheduled after Sept 2 anyway. nonetheless, i want to know as soon as possible as to when my interview date will be in Sept. i can't wait to Sept to be here !!

Looking at my schedules, I won't be able to go to the post office tomorrow (thursday) but friday. this weekend is going to be a 4 day weekend (Sat through tuesday), so if i mail it friday, the packet won't go far anyway until next wednesday. i so decide to mail it wednesday as i'll be in BKK then.

Ladywhite, tried the emailing the embassy thing on Sunday...don't have our petition yet...:( I think they'll get it this week though.



qbertz7:

did you get a reply from the embassy saying they didn't have your petition yet?

Hmmmm..i emailed them monday evening and received a long auto reply saying "....Please note that we are not able to provide routine status updates on the more than 7,000 cases that we handle annually, nor are we able to respond to routine questions regarding whether or not we have received your case from the NVC.."

if they don't have yours, they may not have mine either. your case got sent to BKK two days before mine did.

Thanks for the update. i hope it will be this week. i'm anxious to get things moved forward and know my interview date.

I have heard that you can email the consulate and ask if they have receive your petition. if they have, send out the packet to them without having to wait until the actual packet 3 arrives.

It won't hurt to give it a try. i'll email them too.
