K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsShould I be there for interview or not??
QUOTE (sbragg @ Dec 1 2007, 06:28 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Now that we have approval from the US side NOA2.... I was wondering what others are doing for interviews. Going through the interview process with them??? I just returned from Cebu as I thought the process was going to take until April or May for final approval which was perfect for my vacation schedule. Now we are approved and await the medical and interview date which I am estimating February (someone please correct me if I am assuming wrong). Our NOA2 was approved November 28th after filing July 18th.

My thoughts are to meet her once she is approved in Vancouver as Philippine Airlines flies through there on the way to Las Vegas. They have a technical stop where passengers stay in Vancouver in a holding area as they do not pass into Canadian Customs unless they are staying in Canada. I figrued I can meet her there and bring her the rest of the way in through Vegas Customs.

Does anyone know anything about Las Vegas Customs? Difficult or easy?

Thanks to all VJers and Good luck to those awaiting there approval!


Your right, you may have interview on January or February. Good choice of flight plan, i took that flight too when i came here. Its a hassle free flight except for the food, lol. I haven't had a problem going through Las Vegas Customs, they are very nice and they didn't even opened my luggage. I guess you don't have to meet her at Vancouver, she will be fine, just meet her a Maccarran airport. Congrats on your approval and Good luck for the interview.

DS-156 does not keep any data on the website, just close the page, and open a new DS-156 and fill it out correctly.

All the website does for you is generate a unique bar code on page 3 that contains all data entered on the foem.

tHANKS so much YuandDan, now im relieved... blush.gif

You can print out as many as you want, in fact you can save a copy of the generated PDF file for later printing.

QUOTE (rick @ Feb 25 2008, 10:18 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello everybody,

My medical and interview is fast approaching, March 28 and April 4, respectively.

One of the requirements is you have a valid passport within six (6) months during your interview. My concern is this -

1. My passport will expire this September, almost within the edge of their requirement time, should i renew my passport or i will use this old one.

2. The Passport processing in my country take one month to process because of their revisions and all.

Thanks very much in advance whatever assistance you can extend.



It would be better if you renew it right now while you still have time, try to call the DFA Office and ask if they can process it within one week, renewals are much more faster compared to the new ones.

Wow! I have not heard anything from my last Sunday's touch and my VJ estimated time has increased to February 14! Wow outside the 6 month processing time. I will be calling again on Tuesday to see what they say, instead of touching my file hopefully they do something with it. How is everyone else holding up? Any approvals?

I spoke with customer service today at CSC, and told him that it seemed as if all approvals for the last 5 days had come to a complete stop. After explaining how I knew this (VJ, blah blah) I was told that there is no slow-down or stoppage in approvals. Take that for what it is, but if true then it's very likely that CSC are not updating the online case status. It's possible that approvals are flowing but until people start getting their NOA2's in the mail (or CSC updates their computers) we won't know. That's of course pure speculation on my part, but I thought I'd throw it out there.


Mox, Thank you for that information. I hope of what you are speculating would be true. yes.gif


Yes I hope this is right, being pregnant I am anxious in getting my dh over here already, even though it has not been a month since I saw him whistling.gif . I did read that their were some CR-1 that were apporved and they were later then my date so I think they are coming, lets hope Fridays mail many approvals are in the mailboxes kicking.gif

You should really use the actual "received" date printed on your NOA1. The reason is that this is the only firm date that you can compare to other filers. For example, I filed in September 13, but didn't receive my NOA1 until 6 weeks later. Someone else filed August 1, and received their NOA1 a couple days later. If you were to compare our NOA1 dates, you might assume that the August filer would be approved before the September filer because they received their NOA1 first. But USCIS have said that they process applications based on the date they receive them. Therefore you should be calculating times based on the received date, not the NOA1 date. Hope that makes sense. smile.gif

You are right Mox. About Date Received in Mailroom USCIS says: "USCIS will honor the actual date that an application was received in our mailroom; this date will be indicated on the receipt (in the Received Date box) when Form I-797, Notice of Action, is mailed".


Yes you are right, thanks and I remember seeing this some place before on their website. I called them to today to get clarification, originally I was thinking of doing the ref trick, but remember I had some other question to ask and knew customer service was not able to help me. The lady was very nice and even said that my receipte date is 8/14 not the date of NOA 1. So hopefully 150 days is coming around the corner for us good.gif

Hey August filers. I was just lurking around today and thought I'd put in my $0.02. And just remember, that's all it's worth is 2 cents. The averages I believe are 150 days from NOA1.

IF (and that's IF) CSC continues processing at the average rate they have been for the past three months (about 6 approvals per day on AVERAGE-and I've accounted for holiday time off), then the approvals should be as follows:

They should be finished with July by the end of January.
According to my calculations, there are approximatly 45 filers from August without approval. That means that they should basically be finished with the August cases by February 8 or so.

That's just a guess, assuming that there are no RFE's. If you get an RFE, your case will take a little longer.

I'm not a math whiz and this is just something I've been working on in my spare time. I hope you all get approved FAST because that means that those of us behind you will get approved quicker, too. GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I know that which date has often been a debate, do you use the date printed on your NOA 1 or the date you received your NOA 1. If I am to use the receipt date on my NOA 1 well I am almost at the 150 day mark, however if I use the date my NOA 1 was issued, well then that is looking at another 44 days added on bring my approval time around March 1st mad.gif in looking at many of the stats it is from the date of file you can see the 150 day mark the most often. I do not think I will stay calm waiting another three months whistling.gif

Thank you! Honestly, IDK... but out of sheer morbid curiosity:

1. Was it my "time"?
2. Was it the expedite?

Tuesday night I contacted my "Elected Official". Early Wednesday morning a staffer called and said they would look in to it. So...
3. Was it the Congressional?

...the world may never know!?! tongue.gif

The service center was useless as usual. The rep on the 21st told me to resend the fax two more times, waiting three days between faxing. The rep I spoke with on the 25th said wait until Friday before resending.

Just like to share with you guys my blog on my driving experience.... it's kinda long but pls be patient.


We had set saturday night this week for our movie date. We went to see the movie 3:10 to Yuma last night. It was a good movie and we both enjoyed it.


Flashback scenes before going to the movie. Checked out the net for the schedules of the cinemas at Randolph Mall at Asheboro and Sandhills Cinemas at Southern Pines. Asheboro is less than 30 mins drive from home while Southern Pines is 45 mins away. 3:10 to Yuma is not available at Randolph Mall so we decided to go to Southern Pines and set to see the 7:15pm screening.


As usual, I'm the designated chaueffer. We left the house around 5:45 and I manuevered my way to the country road on my big buddy Buick. Between driving and singing my worship song in the car. We changed route this time. We used Lakey Siding Road from the usual Old Plank Road which I became so familiar with that I've memorized every curve it has. I'm scared of Lakey Siding Road because it's narrow, has this very steep and curvy road. I dread passing through that road. It makes every bones in my body chill and I feel that it will take time for me to get used to it.


I think it was a smooth ride and don't ask my husband about it because he'll never compliment me despite getting to our destination in one piece hehehehe Yes it was a good ride, with my occasional drifting and steering wheel wobbling or my speed limit dropping off I'm happy with my performance this time. Indeed practice makes perfect. We made it to Highway 2427 then 215 and then Southern Pines. Oh I also hate the traffic especially at the circle which I have to yield to ongoing traffic. I survived that one too.


Ok now we're at Southern Pines, hubby said he's hungry and we have to swing by the Chinese Resto to have dinner. I decided against it. I ate sandwhich and left over salad from the other night before we left home (while he's taking a nap). We went instead to Fresh Market to buy a roasted beef sandwhich and drink for my already starving husband. We like Fresh Market it's beautiful, a little expensive, and I guess it's a high-end store that caters to the mostly rich Yankees that has migrated to Southern Pines and it's neighboring golf course villages.


We got my husband's take-out food. Now the trouble was I didn't bring my purse and food is not allowed inside the theather. Had I have it with me we could simple hide it inside and he could have a good time eating a roast beef sandwhich inside the cinemas. Well what he did was eat while I steered the car to the parking lot. I found a good spot away from other cars. At the far end corner but unfortunately someone got beside me that quick or I was slow that I found out we're no longer alone in my little corner. Geez hubby's eatin' while I was drivin' has to be careful and give him time to munch on his big take-out that can't be taken inside the movie house hehehehe

Got to the cinema and the movie was finished by 9:30.


Now it's night time driving for me. It's my first time. As usual my husband has to help me get out of the maze while I gingerly zigzag my way out of the parking lot and off to the road. It was a struggle for me. I literally prayed the whole time that I was driving. My eyes give me additional trouble or so I guess but I think I was finding excuse for my sloppy driving or I was uncomfortable driving at night. There's the usual cussing from my husband who totally think that Colby his (9 yr old grandson) is far better driver than me. My errors as my husband put it, are too many to count. I clicked the highbeam light together with right hand signal and within distance from another car on the other side of the road (it was a dangerous thing mind you) or I was too fast while passing a state trooper and boy you could imagine the horror on my husband's face. I still get the usual flank. You can't be sensitive with him or else the marriage will be out in the drain and I'l be heading home ASAP back to the Phils.


He has constantly chastised me especially with my backing and going into the curve that I actually got used to it or I'm just taking it all in stride. Most times tears will just roll down my face while driving while your husband thought your a "dummy" for not listening to his yakking. "Give me some gas", or "you're drifting to the yellow lane", "what's that dumb move" or "you'll get both of us killed" and all that dialogue that one time pushed me to the edge and put the brakes, stopped on the side of the road and slammed the door and moved to the passenger seat. There was total silence for an hour. After the heat subsided I reclaimed my driving seat.


This night was no exception, I was thinking that he will be good to me considering that this was the first time that I will be doing it. He wasn't that bad at all he didn't let me go through my dreaded Lakey Siding Road. Still, we managed to get home safely. And I survived night driving!




Fish, its just part of learning. My husband is also like that, he's yelling and cussing everytime i make a mistake on my driving, but i know that he loves me and he's just concern. Good luck to you!

BTW, my husband is a retired highway patrol trooper... Since he used to implement law on the road, imagine how strict he is when it comes to driving. whistling.gif

You're right Mae, husbands and terrible instructor, thats why my husband enrolled me in driving school. I wish we have that kind of mower for me to learn to drive, unfortunately that kind of mower is not allowed in our neighborhood. Good luck!

I just browsed the USEmbassy site and it didn't say any changes on medical exam fees for St. Lukes. Maybe its not update yet. The best way is to contact St. Lukes first about the fees before going there for medical examination.

The St. Luke’s Extension Clinic is located at 1177 J. Bocobo St., Ermita, Manila, telephone 521-0020 and 521-8647.
