I know I'm being dumb,but when you see the vermont processing times are december 2007,I have also seen other people who have filed after this date and have been approved. How does it work????



They keep the date until they have the last petition covering that period. I mean they have petitions of Dec 18-2007 working on it.

Vermont is unpredictible. Now they are working with HB1-(visa for working) and they stopped the I129F fiance visas. crying.gif crying.gif



Now I am in a panic, what do you mean that they have stopped the fiance visa's????
Please enlighten me
thanks
Shaz ohmy.gif


They haven't stopped working on I-129f petitions, just working on backlogs. Remember most K1's has a time frame of approx 6-8 months.



Thanks so much for taking the time to clear this up for me, whew I can breather again I was having visions of them sending all the applications to California..............

I am just hoping for approval by the end of the year and anything sooner would be an amazing bonus

Have a nice day

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsHow long to wait.......??????
I got my NOA1 on the 30th June

I to want to spend the holidays with my fiance but I dont think that everything will be completed by then, it's one big waiting room

So I have booked a flight to the States for Christmas and New year and if my packet 3 comes before I will complete all the information and send it back when I return, I dont think you can make any plans on expected dates, you have to make decisions that seem right for you at the time

I hope however that you have a speedy journey and you get your visa in time for the Christmas holidays

Yes!!!! I got my approval letter last Saturday, the package is on its way to my house, I am doing all the criminal records and my interview is on October 10th!!!!!!!!!!! everything has changed in a week!!!! everything has changed sooo fast but I am happy because if everything goes well, I will be with my baby boy by the end of October!!!!!! heart.gif heart.gif heart.gif heart.gif



CONGRATULATIONS kicking.gif kicking.gif

I did not realise that you got your interview date so quickly and with your noa2 , I thought that you got that when you sent your packet 3 back.
I am waiting for my NOA2 and was going to delay sending back packet 3 till the new year as I have a flight to Texas for the Christmas Holidays, and I wont be ready to go until feb/march next year
If I get my interview that quick I will have to lose the money for the flight as I cant go for Good in December to much to sort out.

oh no I mucked up again
Stinky MonkeyFemaleUnited Kingdom2008-09-19 13:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsany updates with June filers?
Well our estimated date for noa2 went from Mid October to November
So I have booked a flight today to Texas so I can spend Christmas and new year with my boy, we will just have to delay sending in packet 3 but I cant worry about that as we are still waiting on NOA2. I just hope that if it does come through quickly that you dont have a time limit for sending the packet 3 forms back, if so it looks like I have wasted £380.
I just cant cope without us being together for months on end.
Just incase anyone is interested American Airlines have got a great sale on at the moment, last year I paid almost £700 for the same flight.

Hope everyone get's their NOA2's asap

Have a great week everyone

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportshow to cope with the waiting
One way that I cope with it is by thinking it is another day closer and not another day of waiting

You never know when it is gonna happen, I saw on Igors list that someone got their NOA2 in 16 days and I am still in shock over that one.

We speak on e-mail all the time and try to speak every day, depending if he can wake me up ha ha time difference is such a pain

We met up in Cancun last month for a holiday, and I am going to go to the States for Christmas I am not going to let this process stop me getting on with my life and not going just incase the visa come through, it just means that I will have to delay sending back my packet 3, and if they turn me back from the States at Christmasd for my visit then that is a risk we are willing to take. I am going there as I have more holiday so we can spend more time together. I will however take a letter to the states showing that I am returning back to work and all my visa info

This is a hard process especially when you see people who have been approved who filed after you, but you just have to be happy for them and think that it is 1 less couple infront of you

Keep your chin up all the best things are worth waiting for

I've notice, everytime a topic gets moved, he puts that in the thread. whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif

Sooooo after stressing ourselves out so much, AND a really long wait....We finally got our NOA!!!

took alot longer than we thought it would but at least we have it, we are so happy, and relieved!!!

whats the next step now?? James sent ALL of the stuff at the start, the package with our pictures and letters etc, so i dont know if we will have to send it again?? I'm really not sure of the process, its so confusing lol.

Also he booked me tickets to come visit for 3 weeks in october, I know i should bring some things with me to prove i'm gonna come home after the 3 weeks, but i'm not sure what i should bring y'know, Is it usually a problem going to visit??

I cant wait to see him!!!

I am going at Christmas and I am going to take with me a letter from my employer stating that I am on holiday and will be returning, a copy of my last pay check, and most of all answer any questions that imagration may have honestly.

It is also a good idea to take a copy of a lease or any papers that show you have a tie to your country

Good luck and have a great time, we might even have to delay sending in our packet 3 if we get our noa2 soon
