K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJuly 2009 Filers

Hey, good and weird news. Dave had the visa sent to his parents and his mom signed for his passport and package over a week ago. So far he hasn't seen it yet because he keeps dropping by when she's not home and his father has no clue where she put it. POE date is estimated mid to late Feb, but really who knows with that guy of mine. ;)

That is good news.

Thanks Jewel, I thought that was it but it never hurts to ask. I don't want any paperwork delays at this stage of the game.

Another question. Do the photos need to be attached to the Ds 156 when it is sent to the consulate?

Hand them the birth cert and everything else in person. Just send back the checklist and DS forms.

Great news! It probably means you will get an interview date pretty soon, it must be such a relief to you guys (F) I know you have been waiting for such a long time, but it will be soon forgotten once you're finally with Marina and can start your new lives together, you know. Let us know as soon as you hear something back from Frankfurt.. remember you can often call them up and get the interview date before the beneficiary even receives the P3 letter - at least we did ;)


I have a question. The checklist says not to send any of the documents she needs to collect to the consulate. The Ds 156k says to attach birth certificate, divorce, death, financial support, etc. does all of this go to the consulate attached to the Ds156k or are they taken to the interview?

It looks like I have my dates wrong. They mailed P3 on January 8th so Marina should get it any day. As you know it has been a long journey for us as it was for all of us and I know it will soon be over. If all goes well I am planning a trip in mid March to go over and escort her back.

I am glad that things are going well for you!!

The airport in Iceland is small, so it's easy to navigate from one plane to the other - which was great. I can do nothing but recommend them, both due to price and overall experience with them :D

So how's everyone doing?? It seem quiet in here - we had a huge computer crash and had to reformat so we've been out of the loop for a few. My boy had his first day at school today and even though he does not speak too much english yet, he had a good time at school. All is well and we're busy planning our wedding, good stuff!! How about everyone else??


I think our packet made it to Frankfurt today. It seems like we are the last of the July filers still waiting for an interview date. I know it will be a short wait from here on.

CONGRATS SEANY!!! Dave sat there for over 4 hours as well. Then he caught the train back to Edinburgh via Glasgow and when they hit Preston they seemed to have lost the driver. He got home a few hours later than expected and had to wake up early for work. He says that he hates London. I dont blame him. ;)

Congrats to iowaseabee!!! Have you called the NVC and tracked the shipment and everything? Once it hits the embassy you can call DOS and track it using the number NVC gives you. It will be consulate specific, mine was LND2009xxxxxx for London. Hope your interview is scheduled soon. That was the hardest wait for me.

And to everyone else... Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You all rock :D


Congrats Seany!!!

I called NVC today and found out that it was forwarded to Frankfurt this morning!!

Received hardcopy of NOA2 today.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJuly 2009 Filers

So the interview was at 10 a.m. in London. I woke up at 6:45 my time and still hadn't heard anything even though it was 1:45 there. Dave's phone goes straight to voicemail. The night before he had told me the battery was low. I start freaking out.

So I called DOS and they couldn't tell me much. Couldn't say that the visa was issued. They were only able to say that the interview went well. I'm thinking AP or a missing document might be the case.. ask for the consulates phone number. The lady starts thinking I'm crazy and asks if I've spoken to him. I explain that his cell phone battery is dead and my internet at home isn't working.

I then sent a text to Marie even though it's not even 6 a.m. in California about my freaking out. I jump in the shower and when I get out he's tried to call and when I didn't answer he sent a text saying, 'Done ;-)'.

Everything is great and the visa should be here in 3-5 days. Right now he is in a 'wee irish bar' by the train station having a Guinness. God I love that man. :D


Great news!!!!!

I'd give them a call to see if they got your case or not, soon you'll be able to track your package to the consulate in Germany. Do you have any idea how quick they are when it comes to scheduling an interview?


From what I understand it is a fairly quick process in Germany.

Everyone's doing great and we're just so happy about finally being together! heart.gif I'm still thinking of all of you who are waiting to get together, it won't be too long now!!

We had our wedding Saturday, during the wonderful Blizzard 09 smile.gif The bridesmaid's car was covered in a sheet of ice and nearly missed the wedding, the streets where unplowed, the snow never stopped, the ceremony started 45 minutes late... but life was good. It was beautiful, she was stunning and every day just gets better smile.gif

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season, that couples are uniting and all your dreams are coming true. The minister talked about this stressful process, the committment it takes for a couple to get through it and how much you appreciate your life together after it. He was so right.

I wish everyone the best!

They actually delivered it to him via post on Christmas Eve lol! 3 days now thats a quick turn around, and I told him it was the best present in the whole world! kicking.gif

I started truly making serious Wedding plans, called my mom to tell her the details so they can be here and find out that my sister is definately not coming and my Dad might not be. They are to "busy" and may not be able to get the time off work. Grrrr, this has been my whole life, my mom is always there and everyone else could care less. His family is flying all the way from Australia to be there for us. My family only has to fly 5-6 hours, and his has 24 hours of travel to go through. Anyways, just frustrated, sorry I havent been on the last few days been working, and super busy with the kids!

Have a wonderful holiday tomorrow!


Very good news!!

I also had a very good Christmas surprise, I had an email waiting for me when I came home frome work tonight. We received our approval on the I129f petition on Dec. 24th. Marina doesn't even know because she is already sleeping and didn't take her cell phone with her.

Thanks to all of you for your words of encouragement helping me through this long wait.

On to the next step now.

Hi everyone. Congratulations to those who got their visas or NOA2!

Our application (I129F) was received by USCIS on July 20, 2009. Today I called NCSC and the person said they can't accept a "service request" because they are processing applications from July 16, 2009. They suggested to calling four days from today and ask for the processing date at that time. I called the congressman on July 10 (not heard anything yet).

Please advice.


I guess it really depends on who you talk to when you call. I called this morning and they confirmed that my petition is outside of the 5 month processing time and that he would start a service request. He also told me that CSC is processing applications from JUly 16th (hmmm haven't they done anything since the 21st) and if I don't hear anything in a week that I should call back.

To all who have heard me complain and anticipate AP after the interview ... I had good reason. See below.

So to my friend's urging (jewel) after the interview - she told me to call DOS.

So I tried on the day of the interview ...no luck getting through.

So I call today (yesterday being the interview).

I get a lovely lady on the phone...
Tell her I need a status check on my file ...k1, fiance ...case number blah blah blah

Then she disappears

I said hello? She said: hold on

I said ... I know it is probably too early bc systems haven't updated yet ...but just thought I would try...

She says ... hold on please and disappears ...long moment of silence

Then all I hear is: "wow"

I said what!??!

She said: It's a miracle

I said what??!

She said: His visa was issued today, Beirut always takes months!

I said ...(Insert nervous/happy/excited laugh here) thank you...thank you ...byebye

I think I will go to church this christmas ...heheehe wink.gif I'm so happy!!!! I don't know what my other half did ..I called him and said what did you do during the interview?!?!?! Even DOS is shocked you got it so fast ...his reply: I did magic.

I can't believe it ...and really thought I would be stuck in AP.

He gets to pick it up today (his time) wednesday !!!!



That's great news. Tell him to send some of that magic our way if he has any left. :-) So does he have a travel date in mind?

Ok ...so here's the deal. Obviously every case is different ...but everyone knows in this group that I obsessed and harrassed everyone I could for my noa2. I sent charts and all kinds of things to my congressman. I called USCIS and demanded to speak to a supervisor. I was only at my 3.5 almost 4 month mark when i started. I emailed my congressman 2 times a week and called to verify whether they received my emails. Did you sign and send the privacy authorization form ?! Did you find the person who actually handle immigration issues at the congressman's office? Although you probably wont have much luck bc of the holidays (assuming). Keep knocking at everyone's door. Really ...and p.s. I didn't stop at NOA2. I harrassed my embassy on a weekly basis even before they got my package! hehehehe That's bc my embassy has a lot of issues and I did not want to sit in AP...but i'm sorry yours has taken this long ....just keep trying whatever you can. Next step? Go to your local congressman's office in person and plead your case.


Wonder if anyone will be working Thursday morning when I make my call?

So sorry your case is being so incredible slow, I can't believe they even told your congressman's office to wait for the 5M limit, I mean c'mon, there's less than a week left for that and obviously nothing has happened yet. Hopefully things will pick up again once we're done with the holidays so you can finally get your approval! How's Marina dealing with everything? smile.gif



She seems to be doing better than I am at the moment. I am ready to send my congressman a reminder so that maybe something will get done soon.

NVC kept telling us it could take 3-6 weeks as well, but in reality it was there in a week or so. Seeing how that's the case with most people, I just don't see why your case would be lost somewhere for a month! I hope you've contacted your congressman as well, not to mention pestering NVC daily on the phone!

I will reserve my 100% joy for when he actually has the visa ...

however, interview went great. 3 hours at the embassy. interview was about 5-8 minutes long.

they didn't want to look at anything ...asked questions and he decided to do it all in english...the best part of it ...

Him telling the interviewer: "If I didn't bring all these binders my fiance would kill me, so please let's go through them ... but I think this is all stupid because I have loved her for 11 years ...."

he said the interviewer was a cute blonde! oh yeah ...he will love california.

And on a final note - when they were done he told her : "I am certain my fiance would like to email you ...can I have your email because I am sure she wants to say thank you" interviewer responds: hmmmmm i can't give you that ... but i'll write her a note...and she wrote on the receipt of payment: "you're welcome, enjoy your life with your great future husband"

I think I can finally passout now.

wow.

I see you only have a week left before you hit the 5 month mark, any plans for further action should it not show up by then? It must feel so frustrated although I'm sure you'll receive some good news soon, that would be some Christmas gift!

Well, talked to my attorney today, and he had me sign a new I134 and they are overnighting it tomorrow to the consulate along with a letter to tell that it was their typo. I think they should put how bad they suck in with it, but hey thats my feelings on it. lol. I think what he is doing is trying to act like they are trying to fix it so i dont cancel my few remaining checks that are payable to them. I was so po'd that I called the account person there and told them that they need to talk it out with my attorney and that I deserved a fees discount. Ah well, Damo has the corrected one I left with him the other day, so I have things straight on my end, lets see how the attorney gets his $hit together. More or less I have come to the conclusion that if damo doesnt get his visa next week approved and stamped and in hand within a week after, and its due to the fault of my attorney screwing this paper up, then they will refund me the full amount, or have a suit on their hands. lol. devil.gif Sorry I'm rambling, ive had to deal with this idiot all day today back and forth, and with missing Damo and major Jet lag, it hasnt been a good day. Either way this time next week it will be done, still cant believe its a week away to his interview.

well i had a talk with one of the guys who works at the passport office and he told me he will help me in getting a duplicate passort within a week and the validity of of the passport will be normal 10 years. He said everything in the duplicate passport will be the same as it was in my old passport eccept the passport number. I dont know if that will be accpeted by the embassy sad.gif


Hmm well that's a tough cookie to answer. I know they take your passport number twice, once for the medical apps and once for the applications you just handed in now. I had an error in something I filled out along with my forms, following the advice of a veteran member here, but the consulate in Norway just erased what I wrote and corrected it for me. I don't know if they're equally easy to deal with in Mumbai but hopefully there won't be too much complications and things will be sorted out. I got a good feeling about you guys, and will be crossing my fingers for a speedy Visa! good.gif

Jules; you sound so happy! And in love - and happy!! I'm having some hardship with being away from Wade for so long, so it was incredible nice to get your update and a feel of you two together wub.gif So happy for you, Jules! It's all about trying to squeeze out as much as possible from the days you got left and hooray! You got an interview day! I'll be waiting for the good news kicking.gif Tell Damo we said hi, or better yet; Hi Damo!! (if you're reading this over her shoulder that is, lol)


i had a chat with the embassy people this morning and the lady over the phone said that the change of passport number is not a problem. all i need to do is send them the new passport and they will do all the correction and the good news is i will get my passport this week only..YAY


That is good news.

I tried to get some more sleep (didn't really happen) since I have to work tonight. Neil texted me at 6:30 this morning to tell me! He said it was easy, they only asked a few questions. He was kept entertained by the fact that Martin Kemp from Spandau Ballet was in front of him in line to get a visa. huh.gif

Although, as tired as he is, he may have been hallucinating that part. whistling.gif

I have to thank you guys - all of you. Kristin, how sweet to come here and see how much we've been on your mind today, made me feel so good. Marie, you've been such a great friend to me through this whole process. Everyone in this group - don't know how I would have possibly made it without you guys. I truly cannot wait until we are all feeling this moment.

Zahid, I'm sorry about your passport. I hope you find a solution soon. I know you will, I know that nothing will stop your love.


Congrats Nancy smile.gif
i have already spoken with some officers in the passport office srinagar and they told me to come there on Monday morning. Nothing is going to stop our love. we both have stayed strong in the past and we will continue to do that. This is just a visa process not the end of world smile.gif



I'm sure it will all work out ok for you.

Hi Steve,

how's everything? Any news on your NOA2? I'm a bit surprised to see she's from Germany, from what I've heard it's supposed to be a fairly quick process - much like my own place. I'm sure you'll hear something soon, though (if not already??). Just hang in there, as tough as it may be! wacko.gif


No news yet and we are quickly appraoching their magical 5 month processing time. I really don't see why it is taking this long. We are trying to keep a good attitude and just take each day as it comes.
