IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	@ Jamie_and_izzy.. My RFE was they wanted another copy of my marriage license that showed the town/parish we were married in (my copy either got cut off or lost am sure) I sent it last week and they received it in one day now I'm still waiting.. Says somethin like "response review"... I took a break from the forum after my RFE bc it was so depressing watching every1 else get approved BUT our time will soon come.   we sent the new Divorce copy today it should arrive tomorrow , i really hope we get approved fast ! i took a break too more or less. *sigh*	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-10 20:35:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Majority of north Africans are Arabs only a few are Berbers but that doesnt say anything all the Berbers i know are very religious ... Anyways i'm sure they don't look at at your skin or Religion to send an RFE ! an i do understand the Extra backround check for high risk countries . RFEs are easy do deal with just takes a bit more time.	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-06 14:27:00

Should we send in an updates i130 as well? we noticed that we left couples of questions Blank i sure do not want to get another RFE :S	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-03 19:58:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Marriage termination: The divorce decree submitted does not show evidence of being signed by a judge or magistrate, or recorded.   So the RFE is about my husbands decree of Divorce not signed by judge ,so my husband just called Wyoming and they said it is signed just our copy was not ...But the signed copy should arrive in a week or so. I'm glad the RFE was not for something stupid and was solved fast   Izzy	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-03 19:08:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Don't worry at all, your RFE will be for some BS reason, probably something that was lost in transfer that you actually submitted! Seen it loads on this forum recently!   Phew that made me feel better, i went and checked the stupid RFE thread and yeah i saw some really stupid ones ill try not to worry!   Izzy	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-01 15:13:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Hang in there Izzy.  Jamie and you have tons and tons of proof of bona fide marriage and face time together.  This is just a bump in the road.  I feel like its probably something simple and soon you will speed pass us all to get your visa,  insha allah.  One day you two will visit me and Mohammed, and we will laugh at how crazy this whole process made us.    Watching Jamie leave and not knowing when you will see him again has made you extra sad so I am sending you extra "hugs" today.    Yes i suppose you're right it might be something easy to fix,Before Jamie left i got any document i could get,Moroccan German and International Birth Certificates, Police and court records, all translated by an offical translator ,Color Copies of both my Passports and ID cards it was not cheap ! , signed bunch of printed out forms Empty ones too like the G-325 and DS-230 not even sure if i'll need the DS-230 ,Copies of letters that Jamie sent me and we took more Pictures i even got my parents in some (they hate taking pictures) lol.   Yes we should do that Jamie and i can cook you some yumy Tagines ! Thank you Selina .	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-01 12:56:00

Thanks for the hug, i just love VJ i dont know what i would do without it !	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-01 11:02:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Another good bye ,I cannot wait for the day that when we say goodbye it will only for a couple of hours and not months and months.   Now to deal with the Damn USCIS again ...we looked over our papers and its looks like the RFE will be for something really stupid ...the I130 just has couple of mistakes like leaving some answers blank instead of N/A ,for proof we sent them flight itineraries,pictures from all over the place taken in Tangier,Madrid,Cologne,Frankfurt,Copenhagen,Wyoming,Wisconsin with friends and family from first visit to last ,joint savings account ,Wedding pictures ring receipts.   I gave all documents to my husband to take with that i possibly could get just to be on the safe side ...   So if this is not enough proof we will make them feel sorry for sending us an RFE ... we got like 6000 hours + of skype calls ,we have 10.000 + pictures ,we can will get tons of letters from people who know us,we have like 300 hours of World of Warcraft logs ,we have this diary that we fill in every night and it is over 400 pages so far if it was a book it would be a 1000 pages + novel ,plus faceook and whatsapp messages thousands and thousands of those...all flight tickets i must have like 12 + or so ,and if they want even train ferrys and buss tickets hell even tickets from movies and museums ! we have pictures from our favorite restaurant 250+ pictures and like 20+ visits ...   Cannot stop crying ;( i mean we have another 5-6 month to go and we cannot afford another visit ...we have to save up for the next steps and the next two plane tickets if that ever will happen !! i miss my dogs they havent seen me in over 8 months ! i hate this so much. Sorry for being extra whiny today its just i think i might lose my mind if this keeps up   Izzy	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-03-01 06:45:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	No, it's happening every day. Remember a standard application only takes about 15 minutes to adjudicate! They should be doing about 1300/day if they get back to their rate when they were receiving I-130s directly.   Hope today will be the day for you :-)    Good luck.   Alrighty that`s good then,i will just go get busy ! i was waiting for someone to get approved on odd time to confirm that, thank you !   Me too...   Thank you	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-02-19 14:01:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	The CSC seems to be holding of sending out approvals until the end of the day. TSC and NSC are reporting as they get approved. At least this is what we have seen.   Do they have approval days too ? like Transfer days? i try to keep myself distracted and it is not working lol, I got most of my paper work ready for the NVC just waiting for the NOA2 so i can get them translated since some are valid just for 3 months,so i went to buy chocolate and gifts for hubby and family and i lose the one plastic bag with the chocolates ..., i roasted peanuts to make peanut butter burned two batches so far... ,instead of doing something useful i`m here on VJ ...ARRGHH ! <<< Losing it .   Congratulation to all Transfers and Approvals !

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Hey, keep your head up, it will all be over soon and you will be with him!   Also, how did you check the average times from NOA2 to interview for your embassy?   That would be very lovely i will try !

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	I just wanted to write something as I've been reading many comments on the forum and want to provide my support.   Sometimes reading these posts and doing so much digging online really effects your mind, your soul, and heart. Everyone will eventually get their approval...it will happen. We haven't even reached the average time currently on USCIS which is 8 months, and as much as that sucks and as much as we could complain, we should take this time to foster in ourselves the quality of patience. I haven't seen my wife in over 7 months now, it's hard, very hard. But I don't let that get me down. I focus on our relationship and think what can I do in the next few months that can make our relationship stronger. My parents had to live apart from one another for 2 years in a time in which there was no skype, no cell phones, no internet, no sms, no mms. It was a struggle that we can't even imagine.    I post all of this because I read many people's post and everyone seems frustrated and upset on here, when coming here should provide calm and support. Take this time to focus on yourself, in 4 months you'll get everything done (God Willing)...think of this as 4 months of your time that you could use for something. We will all get through it and in a few years we will forget that there were so many issues.    If you are one of the folks refreshing the page every 10 secs waiting for an update...walk away, calm down and honestly just relax. It's much better on your mind than constant refreshing which does nothing. When it comes, it will come!   I truly believe that every difficulty is followed by ease, and we will have that soon!       I`m like that too... ,I try to keep myself busy with eating clean working out and reading books since i do not have a job,I managed to lose 70 pounds ,at first i just wanted to lose the first 20 pounds i gained in the US lol ,but it kept me a bit busy so i kept on going .   I`m so very happy my Husband will come visit me in 3 days only for a week but better than nothing,he will come just in time,this past week i sleep very little and my hair is falling and i keep checking for updates all the time and i have this thing where no piece of paper is safe from me lol i keep making these paper worms/Snack thingies ...no idea why,even in days i know nothing will happen i keep checking ...    My Husband cannot handle this very well he gets very upset that`s why i took over checking VJ,Just last night i was looking for the Average time from NVC to interview date for Morocco,and found out it was 4-5 month and when i told him he got very upset and angry,we both thought this entire thing would take 7 month ow naive of us He has far more things to keep him busy his Thesis, work, Reviewing books and articles plus our two dogs ,oh how i miss my dogs ! 8 months last time i saw them,i do see them in Skype everynight but i miss them like anything,and in those couple of month in the US i made many friends,Jamie`s family did not want me to go ,and when we explained why i could not stay they just could not understand it...but anyways ,yes keep yourself busy with other things .   Going to go do some shopping for my Love ! that should keep me busy for today lol   Izzy.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	I think  i`m losing my mind lol, No NOA2 yet...I suppose our case in right at the bottom of a pile of cases (i hope) Cause our case was one of the first to go to the CSC 2 weeks ego? I don`t know ,It`s just seeing people who got transfers after me getting their NOA2 is making us quite worried . Please let this be a good week !	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-02-17 15:01:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Aug 2013 I-130 filers	Today i went to get some of my paper work done just to see how long it would take, and if they are still fine by the time we need them fine if not i`ll just get them again, for 2 month every person i asked told me to go to a different location (my Arabic is okay not that great)...So i just got up early took my ID card and went to any place that gives Vital records and started asking them ...Yeah even they had no freaking clue ! It was not very far from where i live but it still took me 3 hours when it could have been 10 minutes lol, first i went to the police station they told me before getting the Police records i need 3 things a 20dh Stamp ,Moroccan Birth Certificate the short one,and Chahadat Sukna (residency document ?) anyways i went ahead to get these things ,at the place where i got my ID card  issued they told me i don`t need the Chahadat sukna ...Just Copy of my ID card and Birth Records okay then, i asked for if they can give me my Birth Records (after running up and down and officers pointing at who ever i need to go ask ) they told me that i have to go to an another place to get it depending in what hospital i was born in ? i asked if they can check and give me the address and they did. Then i go to this new place got my BC got it stamped just in case even got my ID card copy stamped all ready to go now . I then went back to the police station and they told me they don`t give out the records there and that i had to go to another place to get the Police Records   okay ... so i went there found the office that i needed (it was raining in the office and over peoples documents) i ask him about Police records he said i need copy of your ID card and that was it ! arghh Non of the things i did before was needed ! then he said you can come pick it up tomorrow Alrighty then time for my Court Records and i decided i`m not going to listen to anyone anymore ,went in Court place thingy asked for Court records showed my ID card and gave the stamp ,Again ...it was all i needed ,i asked if they will put "Nothing" on it, he looked at me and said with a face like yours what else should i put on it ? lol, Police records will be done  in 3 days and court records in 1 day ,oh an everyone was talking to me as if i was 14 ...which was very annoying lol i wont bother translating them yet i now that it takes 1-2 days for that ,now at least i know where to go and what i need instead of wondering and going crazy asking people around . I also noticed that they put single on my documents even if i`m married ... i told them i am married they said no not in Morocco .you have to get married in Morocco i really hope that wont cause problems ...next time i will bring my husband with me ! ( he will come visit me in 9 days )   So just go ahead and start doing your paper work or just ask around more `im sure it can save tons of times ,hope this helps.   Izzy	Jamie & Izzy	Male	Morocco	2014-02-12 15:03:00
