K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2009 K1 Filer
Hello everyone.

We, that is Mat and I, filed on March 17th. (St. Patrick's Day biggrin.gif ). We got our NOA1 and are obviously waiting for the NOA2. Haven't read through the hole thread yet, but it is good to know other people who filed at the same time.
Good luck everyone.

I am disappointed in how much things seemed to have slowed down with CSC when it got close to June filers. It has been a hard week and we all need some good news soon!! ~ Tina

I hear you too, Tina. And yes, we all need good news very soon. ;)


I hear ya Tina!!! hope we all get some good news soon, it's been 8 months now since I last saw my girl and if I'm lucky only 3 or 4 more to go but it's been long enough for us all I'm sure. I hear the hurricane lost some strength so hopefully didn't mess up roads or power too bad. Jim.

:thumbs: You will see your girl after these process again? Man Jim, I hope you will get your approval soon. My fingers are crossed!


Hey everyone!

May filer here....still waiting on NOA2 (VSC).... hopefully may will get out of your way soon and they'll start on June...

Thanks so much! (F) All the best to you! And I really hope you will get your approval fast...it's time for all may filers. ;) Good luck!

Thanks!

It seems like most people get a "touch" a few days after their NOA1 date, so I don't think it means anything special. Maybe they moved your file from one box to another, who knows... There are no stupid questions, and I think we're all very nervous and excited about this process.

Thanks for answer. :) And I guess you are right. I was just wondering.

I was looking obsessively at USCIS's webpage that I have now limited it to once a week so I wont go crazy... I did sign up for case updates so if something happens I should know right away.

:thumbs: I know exactly what you mean. I am still doing it and I have to limit is as well.

Patience sure is a virtue, or at least so I've heard!

I have heard that too. ;)


Hello everyone. August seems to be draggin! I hope we see some more June approvals this week and the rest of May. Come on VCS and CSC. ~ Tina

Hey Bobby and Kelly & Kristina and David...welcome. :star:

I have a question, we just signed up for case updates on the USCIS website. They have touched our file at 06/14/2011. That is probably not a good sign that we will be approved soon, or am I wrong with my assumption? Sorry guys for this probably stupid question. :blush: I am just nervous and excited. ;) :)

Good luck to you all and I still keep my fingers crossed.

Vermont really slowed down these couple days, at least by the the Igor's list. I keep falling down on the list instead of raising up lol...

Just give me my NOA2 :D

You are right Vermont really slowed down. But they approved 3 March filers yesterday. Hang in there. I keep my fingers crossed for you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsTaking a break from Igor's list of XXXX
Hey guys,

I am so happy to have found a forum like this. cuz I know, people here will understand me.

for the last couple of weeks I got really crazy about Igor's list. I checked it several times a day. but now, seeing VSC at its best again, I think I have to take a break.
This is just so dissaponting. I mean, ever morning I chek this damn list. Hoping, praying. After so many disappointing days u start to think "well, it can't be helped. If this is how it goes...".
But then, VSC has some really good days and u think " wait a minute, this looks good! maybe it won't take that long after all"
You get all excited, hope is coming back, and then.. BANG! A punsh right into ur face! Only 5,4 or 3 approved! and the great final... NONE or just ONE!

I am frustrated and sad. I miss my fiance so much. I hate that I am at the mercy of incompetence! :help:
This is not the first time I got a visa. Due to my job I have been here and there in the past. And I have NEVER been confronted with something like this before! Never! Not even in Japan (which is famous for it's strict rules on visa).
All these coasts, this inconvenience, separation, unfriendly service which gives u WRONG information! :wow:
I know it's not the VSC's officers fault. They just do their job. And I don't think it is an easy one. Having people calling all day long and complain. But they also have to understand that we are frustrated.

What do u guys do to cheer up? :(

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsExpedite for Active Duty Military
yeah. I am sorry too. I guess you are ranked higher so they might trust your word more? or we just got unlucky with the officer. anyways. the CO will provide us with a letter on Monday. then we will play the old game again. waiting.

I am not sure if they have been trough the application already and just want the letter to say OK or if they simply checked for the letter in the first place. but I am kinda disappointed. would it have been so hard to tell us about the expedite earlier? or tell us about the CO letter earlier? or to tell us earlier that we could have done all these in Japan via the embassy before we moved back to our home counties? I mean, what is going on at VSC?!

I just want to understand...

"myovemyheart",

Thanks. :) Have you hear anything yet from your expedite? Remeber, in my case it took 19 days from the time I requested the expedite until the day I received the expedite approval letter. It was a nail biter, but the next day, I also received my NOA2 notification. It was fast and well worth it. I hope it works out for you too. I wish you good luck. I'll be checking the forum for your update.



yeah. one update. they've sent a letter last week saying they need the letter from the commander. before they told us it might be alright without. well, u know, that's how they are. so we start the waiting game again after they got the letter. :wacko:

:D. That picture and the candle comments is funny. :)
You are welcome. I am glad I could help someone. I still have not hear anything regarding my expedite. I am starting to think that means bad news. I wish you the best of luck with yours. I am not sure if you can talk to a supervisor.


please let me know when u get ur noa2. first I wasn't so happy about my fiance being in the military(I was so scared that he has to go to Afghanistan at some point!), but so far the Air Force was only from big help for us. In every single possible way. where is ur finace at? army, marines, navy or air force?
I pray for your noa2...

You are welcome. Here is the military help line: 1-877-247-4645. Good luck!


my fiance called them and started the process. they said they gonna let us know within the next 5 days. wow...I am so nervous checking my mails now. I don't want to get my hope to high tho, what if they deny us the expedite?
if they do, can we try to talk to a supervisor or something?

it would be more than needed to get noa2 soon. otherwise I have no idea how we can settle everything before my fiance deploys in dec.

again. thank you for your post. if we get noa2 soon, I will hang up ur picture and light up a candle for u every day for the rest of my life! :yes:

really?!

this seems like a joke! first they didn't tell us that we could have gotten married in Japan and file directly through the embassy(that's way faster!), and now they tell us ###### on the help line...

what a bunch of jokers down there at VSC!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will talk to my fiance as soon as possible to start things moving!

again, thank you so much! first time after weeks that I got hope again. according to IGORs list, right now VSC has a standstill. the expedite would be a blessing!

my fiance is in the air force and has to go to the Emirates this dec.

is there any chance we can make use of the expedite as well? I got my noa1 on nov.22 2010.

the USCIS helpline told us no hurry, cuz we will be approved by dec. on the other hand, USCIS told us many ####### before. we used to live in Japan and could have gotten married there and filled the directly through the embassy.

but of course, no one told us...

Hey,
everyone! I wanted to let you guys know what has happened since I sent in my AOS. They sent me NOA1, cashed the check. So I was hoping everything was ok. Today unfortunately I get an RFE in the mail. The weired thing is that it is for an incomplete medical exam (I-693). well, according to the instructions for the I-485 say, that if you are a k1/k2 and you had the medical within the last year only the vaccination document is required. So after a little research on visa journey it seems to be the case that a lot of k1 have recieved this rfe. Nobody really knows why, but people are assuming that uscis lost e lot of medicals. So for those who still have their medical ahead of them, maybe try to get two copies possibly with origional signatures, if that is even possible. I will probably end up getting a new medical. and why not since all us immigrants are loaded with money, while not being able to work....they really are doing whatever they want with us. Feel bad having made it to the US compared to you guys and having to tell you the rediculousness will continue.

I am glad to hear though that you guys are getting medicals and interviews set up. Will keep you posted about my rfe issue.

Congrats to everyone who recently had success with something! I have been in the US since Sept 17th and we got married on Oct. 23rd. Now I am very close to sending in the papers for the AOS which seems a lot easier than the I-129F, if it wasn't for those affidavits of support. Since my husband is still unemployed it is recommended that I get a joint sponser. Which now that Joint sponsor has to send in proof of citizenship. It is my mother in law deperately trying to find her birth certificate. Again, you can't start soon enough with filling out and filing papers!!

I wish everyone else who is still forced to wait on something a hopefully soon to come success.

Happy Holidays

I am sorry to hear about the trouble some of you have to go through. Hope you have enough energy left to stay strong. I have been waiting for my visa in the mail. Called the embassy endless times and wrote them an email that I have a flight on thursday. Today I get a call that my visa is ready, but won't make it to me in time for my flight if they send it out in the mail tomorrow. So I am going on a litle 6 hour road trip each way to pick up my visa. Was depressed in the beginning but noticed really quickly I should be more than happy to be able to get my visa in time for my flight.

I wish everyone else good luck and hope that we soon can all talk about our weddings and aos.
