K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA2 Approved

I am so happy and shocked that we got our NOA2 fast compared to what I have read on other posters, I gave Emily a call and she was jumping when I gave her the good news. For those that are impatient, just bare with the process, it worked for us. Never give up on your dreams to be with your loved one, the system works.

Aloha

Congrats, good luck with the rest of the journey to be together.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportswhy them but not us???

i log in here every day and i have seen recently more vermont´s cases aprove wich is good for all those who have got their NOA2!!! :D but i dont understand why our havent been aproved :( we sent it jan 18 2011 and still nothing might not been long but it gets harder when i see other people´s visa getting aprove from feb :( . why some get aprove before others ???? just a question


I am sorry that you are waiting, but this is normal they select cases at random, this may not be right but that is how it is. Once you are approved and together this will all seem irrevelent. Keep strong the approval will come.

Good morning. I thought I'd pop on for a min before I went back to bed to give an update. Sehrab made it safe. His flight was late getting into Charlotte and we didn't get home till almost 2 am. ::yawn:: Im tired. Kids almost didn't make it to school this morning, I slept through the alarms...lol. I can not even begin to describe what it was like to see him in the airport. We stopped at Walmart on the way home because he wanted junk food, but he was so overwelmed by all the choices we have that he ended up with just two cans of pringles..lol.

He had no trouble getting through POE Chicago O'hare. The immigration guy just took his envelope, opened it, then let him through. Didn't even ask him any questions.

Where he did have trouble was on the domestic flight side. He couldn't get past the metal detector (jewelry, belt...who knows) and the guy pulled him to the side and questioned him. Questions about me...how did we meet? how long we've known each other?, My address, my phone number. Questions about him....they took his address and phone number in Jordan. All in all they didn't detain him for a very long time.

I think him and I will sleep most of the day. I'm so glad I took the day off. I'm exhausted...lol. I'll post a review of the POE in the next few days.

God bless everyone still waiting. I continue to pray that you'll have a fast reunion.

He hadn't left for work yet so I was able to share this great news with him and didn't have to wait a few hours. Next stop citizenship! I had forgotten how I hated being and waiting through this immigration process. The good news is, everyone will make it through.

His interview will be on April 29th so we need all of your prayers. I don't think I can take another second without being by my husbands side. This whole process has almost put me in a mental institution I swear!! wacko.gif

My prayers are with everyone who has begun this journey and are waiting to be with their loved ones aswell, just stay strong and the love you have for eachother will help you through and I am a witness that there is truly a light at the end of this dark tunnel that we all are facing now.

Well, looks like I wasn't dreaming after all. Here I expected it to go on for another few months ... guess not bothering CIS, DoS, and the Embassy paid off. Or somebody got paid off ... who knows.

Now, on to other problems.

Update: Tarik's flight will leave Casablanca at 8am Casa time, go to Paris and then fly to ..... Atlanta(? Not sure why it's Atlanta). Has anyone ever had their fiance/husband come through Atlanta? What is the POE like? Then he has a 5 hour layover in Atlanta wacko.gif . Then he flys to Columbus! (I think he's getting in at midnight).

Possible good news: I was talking to the man that is going to marry me and Tarik. I think there is a way to get the marriage license AT THE MOSQUE!!! INSHAALLAH!! Everyone at the mosque is getting excited for this marriage! That makes me feel so happy!! kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

OMG! OMG!



I came through Atlanta last saturday, its very busy and slow so the layover is ideal.

My husband was wanting to know if he could go ahead and start getting some of the vaccines (i.e. hep b and tetnaus) or if he should wait to get them at the medical. He's wanting to go ahead and do them now

Does anyone now if it is acceptable to go ahead and get them?


Hi Helen,
I would suggest Dougie doesn't wait. From his own doctor most of the vaccines are free of charge ..... whereas at the medical they are quite extortionately priced.
Plus with his own doctor the vaccine appointments can be set up in a way that he doesn't have to have them all at once.
If he lives in Cornwall, as I do, then he won't be able to get the TB shot as we don't have TB in Cornwall and so they do not provide it anywhere in the county.
I didn't wait, I've had them all but TB and Hep.
He will then need a vaccination certificate or letter from his doctor to say which one's he's had and when to take to the medical in London.
You can download the list of vaccines required from the links I sent you, in there will be the link to the medicals and vaccines will be mentioned. However he won't need this for most of them as the majority of vaccines required are simply the standard ones required in England.
You can also get to the website for the medical in London and there is also a pricelist of how much it will all cost .... trust me, you don't want a bill for vaccines on top of it.
I would personally get as prepared as you can for all steps ASAP to save rushing around and panicking when the time comes.
The England forum should also carry a list of questions for interview .... of which he'll proably get asked 3 of by the looks of it .... the interview in London isn't a big deal apparently. Infact it looks the same as it was when I had mine for my previous greencard 14 years ago.
Goodluck guys and hopefully you'll be together by August good.gif



Thanks for the info Sarah, I'll tell him to go ahead and get what he can/what he needs of them. Not sure where Cornwall is or how close he is to there, but he lives in Colburn (close to Darlington). So I'm not sure what he'll be able to get, but he can find that out on his own through his GP. I read on the NVC site that it suggests not to get them ahead of time because he might not need some of them. I figure this is mostly because they want the $$$ for vaccines cos they are fairly expensive on the prices they show (they're not even that expensive over here). I'm not sure on England's vaccine requirements, but going by the requirements over here if they are anything similar he wont need the MMR or Polio or Pertussis (Tetanus, Diptheria and Pertussis are given in one injection called DTaP) as he is too old for them (again thats over here). But surely his GP would be able to determine what he would need and dont based on age and previous vaccines. Tetanus and Diphtheria over here are given as one injection. I read that the varicella vaccine isn't avaliable in the UK, so I'm not sure how that one will work, but he had chickenpox when he was a child. Not sure how the pneumonia vacc would work with him either as over here it is only recommended for those who suffer from it chronically or are 65 and older. I don't know if the general rule for vaccines goes out the window when they are immigration-related.


I had to have Tetnas and Diptheria and MMR. No side affects to speak of.
