Hey Oasis - happy thanksgiving :)

I got married on 13 November - small, simple ceremony but a really lovely day :)

Have got the paperwork together now to file the AOS but we're going away 18 to 28 December so will hold off filing it until we get back :D

Hope you're all keeping well *hugs*

Oasis in the posts you've made your lovely personality shines through. No-one deserves to be yelled at or sworn at. I'm not saying we all deserve to be treated like a princess on a pedestal but at the very minimum we deserve love, respect and dignity. Whilst its an awful decision to have had to make considering the time and effort you've put in, its better than continuing with something that you know isnt right for the sake of saving face. You should be very proud of you and one day when the hurt has healed you never know where your life will lead you. Take care xox

Hey everyone just popping in to say hello and see how you're all going. Thinking of Oasis for a :thumbs: very soon!!

Well I'm 23 sleeps away from leaving for the US. Got my dog all booked in and paid for today. He leaves the day before me and arrives the day after me - 4 flights in total!! Poor little tyke will be getting massive cuddles when he gets to Dallas!

I only have 14 1/2 more days at work - yay :dance: and I'm dropping off my air freight at the cargo depot 20th October so it's all coming together slowly but surely. Am getting a little nervous as the fly date gets closer but hey its been over 6 months since I last saw Ted so is pretty understandable.

Our wedding is all booked and sorted - we're getting married Sat 13 November in a lovely garden surrounding followed by dinner at an italian restaurant instead of a reception. Got the greatest surprise last week when my dad announced that he and my step mum are coming over from Australia for the wedding so with them and my sister there at least I'll know 3 guests on the day :P

Hope everyone is well and look forward to reading your updates too :)

That's brilliant news Ryna - congratulations :dance:

I'm flying out October 29 and the Wedding is November 13 so it was 6 weeks yesterday to my fly date - cant wait, so sick of being away from him :(

Thanks everyone - well it didnt go as smoothly as I hoped. Basically they didnt accept the New Zealand police check I provided in packet 3 as it was issued by the Ministry of Justice, not the New Zealand Police and apparently the only people who can get my police check from the New Zealand Police is the consulate.

So I was approved but visa issuance and passport return wont happen til they get the police check back, however in saying that I was given a refusal worksheet lmao - yeah I'm confused too. But I heard the word approved and they're holding my passport so I'm kinda happy with that :D

I'm still here and thinking of you all - really really really hope you get your NOA2's this week!

My medical results were posted today. Once I receive them tomorrow I can send off the packet 3 and should know in about a week when my interview will be. Best guess estimates are the end of August or early September. I cant wait for it all to be done and that visa in my passport. Then I can sit back, relax and enjoy my last 6 weeks with friends and family - think I'll have a party to celebrate too lol.

Hey Eliza no nothing to worry about yet I dont think - if you look at Ryna's timeline he's had nothing since April either. I find it incredulous that same people get left waiting whilst others move forward yet they all filed at the same time and its supposed to be a first come first serve basis. Ugh the system needs an overhaul!

Thank you Ron :) Ted and I are doing fine as things have moved quickly since NOA2 - been through NVC, recieved packet 3 and everything is ready to go back to the consulate now, just waiting for the results of my medical to arrive next week and then I'll be sending it all off. Anticipated interview at this stage is end August/early September and hoping for a POE at LAX end October :) My relationship with my love is as smooth as ever, just counting the sleeps til I can curl back in his arms again (L)

I think it sucks that you guys are still waiting. I know July is their busiest month which is why they sent the June and July files to Texas for processing but why didnt they send all files waiting for processing? Incredibly unfair and I feel for you all :(

Woooooooooooohooooooooooooooooo congrats Kenny :)

Greeny Ted has already sent me everything I need ready to answer the packet 3 so no reason they cant be sent now. I've got my medical in just over 24 hours - wish me luck :D

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsApril 2010 K-1 VSC
Greeny, Ted rang one week after the email date of the NOA2 and got the updated info of our new case # and that it had been shipped to Sydney on the 19th.

Number to call is 603 334-0700. K visas are not put into the automated system so you need to speak to an operator. Their hours are 7.30 am to 12 midnight EST. The best times to call to avoid a long hold are 7.30am or between 7 and 9 pm. Ted went straight through at 9pm so we were stoked :) You need your USCIS number, both parties names and both parties dates of birth to get the info you want. Good luck and let us know how you go :)

And to Ryna, Kenny and the others still waiting - I'm thinking of you. I know this wait is stressful and draining but I promise the joy when you get NOA2 will so be worth it. Massive hugs and good vibes for you all.

I'm pretty sure every traveller needs a passport - regardless of country or race....only exception I could think of is maybe Canada as it borders?

Sending masses of positive thoughts your way Kenny - I was really beginning to stress, it had almost been a month since the RFE return was acknowledged, was getting really down about it all you know? But Ted told me to keep the faith and today we're bouncing higher than Tigger :) It will come for you I promise.....one day at a time bud.

Exactly :) I know the NOA2 is coming soon - within the next month I would expect - I just no longer pounce on the computer first thing when I get up in the morning and then spend the rest of the day being disappointed due to there not being an email from USCIS.

I had a great and happy life before filing for the K1 and it will be even more wonderful when the process is done but I shall not squander that precious 6 months(ish) in between being miserable :)

Keep the faith all.

Hey Greeny - thats fantastic news - now word of caution it probably means NOA2 is next in the works but please remember they could issue another RFE if they find something else with the file :) And I'm not saying they will - just cautious optimism :)

And dont get too excited about checking every 30 mins again - my RFE was received 18 June and my file updated then but nothing has happened since.

Patience to all - they will get to each and every one of us eventually :)

Congrats MR & SC glad to see another approval.

Still nothing happening on mine - confirmation RFE received back at VSC at the beginning of the week but nothing since. Oh well not a lot can be done about it.
