K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA1 in May,haven't got NOA2 yet,check it out here

hey guys ,i am new here.We got our NOA1 in MAY 1,2007,it's been over 3 months,we haven't got our NOA2 yet,any of you guys got NOA2 yet? Any ideas what we should do? Wish you guys good luck with the approval.


Hi lyly, welcome to VJ! :jest:

Sit tight and don't worry too much, this is quite normal. I'm an April filer, and we only got our NOA2 after 112 days from the date of our NOA1! Half of the April filers also haven't gotten approved yet, so you're not the only one! In the meantime, have you registered for an account on Case Service Status Online? That way you can check whether any processing action has been taken on your case. :)



Thank you so much for replying me, :) makes me feel better.I registered in USCIS website since June,got touch by 7,24 and 7,25,i hope we can approve soon~



looks like our dates are the same i have only one touch but i guess that one is for when they gave someone my case

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsATTENTION : MAY FILERS ... lets keep in touch!

Finally posting for the first time- i read the forum almost everyday and want to let you all know that all of you make this so much easier for me as I don't know anyone directly involved with the visa process other than myself.

Hopefully things will speed up this week.... my projected date on my timeline is creeping into middle of september- it started at August 19th for the NOA2- what's with the delay- is everyone on vacation?? :whistle:



thanks so much- yeah i'm thinking i should cut myself off from looking at my timeline as it just makes me more frustrated-

i have been hearing over and over again especially with all the proposed changes with immigration laws that the fiance visa is really the only wayt to get over here- i'm happy we're doing it so young. i'm completely over the ' long distance is doable' thought though....

does anyone know about fiances visiting the us? my fiance was saying he's heard of people have trouble because of the landing cards and how theere is a clause that states you dont' have intentino on trying to become a citizen? he hasn't been visiting here because of it- making be have my 129038129038129 th visit to the uk... ha. i have been reading though that peoples fiances have been visiting here.

As long as your fiance' has a valid b-1 or other visa he/she can enter the country. Keep in mind, an i
nternational visitor can be denied entrance anytime at a POE. It doesn't matter if they are applying for a K-1 or anything else. It's best for the traveler to just be honest without offering too much information. My fiance' will have been to the U.S. twice on his B-1 during our VJ. I have found POE people to be pretty fair and friendly (all over the world). I think it has a lot to do with your persona, I mean how you come across to the POE officials with your attitude and personality, etc. Good Luck


i got approved on friday i got a touch on sunday too maybe they are all doin over time to catch up this sounds good i got another touch today so im assuming its them preparin my packet to be mailed out :unsure:

Okay, I happen to work for Verizon wireless.... but the usual legal disclaimer about it being my opinion only applies, blah blah......

First, Verizon Wirless will not be on that GSM page, because Verizon Wireless isn't a GSM network, it is a CDMA network....

Verizon Wireless is partially owned by Vodafone, so there is going to be an agreement. HOWEVER, that being said:
per the verizon wireless website: http://mobileoptions...ries/Egypt.html
Texting is only partnered w/ Vodafone.
If there is a problem, and your texts are reaching him, then the problem is on the other end...
This is because every country code and area code must be programmed into the text server. If yours are getting to him, then your service is programmed correctly - there isnt any special programming to RECEIVE international text. If his aren't going, then his carrier does not have your country/area code programmed correctly into their text server.
Hope this helps!!



Thanks! Unfortunately it must be a different issue though because for the past year and a half or so he has been able to text/call me no problem while I was with ATT/Cingular and my number is a speeddial number on his phone and hasn't changed. I ported my number over to verizon wireless so it should be exactly the same. He's contacting vodafone tomorrow so hopefully he can straighten it out then. Just sucks that I can't hear from him on our anniversary. sad.gif I can call him of course but it's not the same as receiving lil kisses via his phone. blush.gif

Okay, then I am completely stumped... I have a few guesses, but I don't know for sure.... either way, I can imagine how frustrating it must be... My hubby and I lived on texting while we were waiting on him to get here.



One more thing to add, if he is sending you smileys and graphics that will not come through those messages will fail. Only text up to 160 characters will come through. Things will def move faster if he opens a ticket with his carrier first and also have him send off a few test text to you so they can look for the failures/errors if there are any visible.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIs it me or is Vermont now taking FOREVER???

Hi all,

I mailed my 129f packet on 7/25/07 to the Vermont Center. I confirmed reciept on 7/27/07...I still haven't received an NOA1 yet!! Am I just being impatient? I see that majority of recent 129f filers received their NOA1's within a week. Now I'm getting worried that I did something wrong! I want to call, but my fiance thinks if I start bothering them now, they will for sure put it at the bottom of the pile!

Any help or advice anyone can give me on this would be appreciated!

Thanks and have a great day! :D



did you check on the uscis site to see when they mailed it out? you can either enter your receipt number or setup a profile where u can see ur status as it changes

Hi Guys i just thought I would throw this concern out there as im hoping this will not cause my fiance and I any issues with our K1 Visa approval. My fiance went to the UK on his passport in 2002 and he stayed there until 2005. Was in England for 3 months and then the rest was spent in Scotland. He says he filed for assylum and while that was being waited upon the goverment gave him some documentation for attending school and for getting apartment. However the assylum never went through and he had to return to Jamaica. Please tell me what you think. Its not like he has any criminal records or anything. Help!!


Well if he would of stayed in the US for this amount of time,then I would of said it would be an issue. Seen as it is in the UK I dont really think so.
But wait what others on here have to say.



Thanks for the advice smile.gif just wanted a bit of assurance

Hy everybody,

I`m new here and i already have my first question..my USC Fiance and i sent the I-129F off in the end of July this year.
We received are NOA 1 in August, and since then case status hasn´t changed,what is normal because of the current processing times, i know..
Now my question is, since he finally found a house where we gonna live in, actually everything what we planned is done...Now we are just waiting for this whole process to be over as fast as possible.
So yesterday when we talked on the phone, we had the idea of maybe getting married spontanious. The idea was that i will visit him (i have a b2 visa) for a week or two and then we just decide "spontanious" that we don´t want to wait anymore and get married during this time.Would that work?or would we get problems? or should we just wait until i get the visa??
I already have been there for 180 days this year, so the full six months,which are allowed. So another question would be, if they let me in when i go there, let`s say maybe january??Cause i`m only allowed six months each year..

Thank you for all ur answers, maybe it´s a silly question but i just wanted to know if this could work...


Get married, but then throw your K1 visa away because you will then have to reapply for a K3 which will take as long, if not longer.



I would just wait it out. If you get married now u will have to start back at square one. K3 may take longer than even the K1. So hang in there. I waited 3 months for my noa2. My process took just 6 months thats not too bad i know it can be stressful missing your loved one.

what USCIS told you?


Just to wait since we were in the 180 days since being transferred. If that time is up and we haven't received anything, then to call back.


Oh so the 180 days is from TRANSFER and not from initial filing? So then technically it could take over a year..if we filed in Sep and were transferred in March.....or I guess for us 1 year would be about 180 days from Transfer..well that bites.. mad.gif

If so, just ask to be transferred to Tier II, then ask for a service request. That's what I did. Maybe you got someone who's new lol. :P
