Riuthamus are you military? It takes 1 month to process? If only citizens of Singapore can get it you might not need to get one. My friend lived in UAE for 5 years and didn't need a police certificate. I have to get one from Bahrain... It's going to suck!

You are military, expedite your petition?

I see where you are showing the estimate on our timeline. Is that what people are looking at? Ours is December 2nd - 9th. Ohhhhh how depressing. VSC Please Please Hurry!!! :o



Ahh we're at CSC, so our estimate is from October 12th at the moment! A lot sooner than we initially thought. I've a feeling things will change though, although I do keep seeing NOA2's from CSC In less than 100 days in some cases! Who knows? I (the beneficiary) am currently with my man in Utah - been out here nearly all summer apart from a week when I went home to see my doctor (I'm recovering from bunion surgery!) and here probably for another 2 weeks. I'm hoping we will see each other frequently up until I get the visa, I'm lucky my jobs very flexible (airline industry!). Can't imagine what its like for other couples waiting months and months. The longest Andy and I have spent apart is 4 weeks and it killed us! Never want to do that again. He is moving to California soon we're just looking at condos very exciting. I think you just have to keep busy, go work out, see friends, work - just to take your mind away from it!

How do you expedite it????



I'm pretty sure active military members can expedite petitions, I think you just have to call them.

Hi folks. I'm just checking in. We're approaching 2 months. Sim is still here until August 20th, but we're both starting to realize how very little time that is. This will probably be the last time we see eachother until we're approved. Super depressing, but hopefully we'll be back together within 6 months. After everything else, we can make it 6 months no problem.

I have been regularly checking the uscis website and there is no update. No touching either. No RFEs, which is good, but since they haven't touched it since 06/11/2012 that means nothing.

Waiting is super hard.

I just keep hoping to be one of those freak petitions that gets processed in like 2 months.

At least we are still together for now. This 3 months together has been GREAT.

riuthamus - How did you hear your date as October 17th?





Hey same here, ours hasn't been touched since June 11th either - thats our NOA1 date. Trying to keep busy so I'm not thinking about it all the time! Whens your NOA1? CSC OR VSC?

We sent ours in on May 30th, it got to TX and was charged to my account on the 6th. We had a peek into our account on the 8th, nothing has been done with it since and no RFI has been sent either. We are with the CA office for filing though.

The worst part is not hearing anything, checking every day, and hoping that it will happen. I am on deployment now and when I return on 15SEP12 I hope that she will be approved, there, and waiting for me. I know this is a long shot since the approval est. time is five months but I can dream, cant i? My heart goes out to all of those who are waiting let us hope we are lucky and our stuff gets processed a bit faster.



can't you expedite your petition?

Was that an amendment? It would make sense for these petitions to be spread out everywhere, local uscis offices etc.

Where is the article?

Middle East and North AfricaBahraini GOOD CONDUCT CERTIFICATE
How did you do Brian? Our noa2 came in 66 days so now it's my turn to panic About this certificate!
ClaireGioFemaleUnited Kingdom2012-08-17 00:47:00
Middle East and North AfricaBahraini GOOD CONDUCT CERTIFICATE
Brian, I had to get the certificate for my current job and I will need to get one for my interview at the London embassy when the time comes round. I am going to apply for it well in advance - perhaps when we mail the i-129f next month as it took about 5 months to come through for my job which resulted in being grounded for a few months, which sucked. I was on the phone to them every day and the guy at the embassy in the end gave me a contact actually in Bahrain who dealt with it. They are not the fastest people at processing things like this, I suggest you get onto it NOW!

GOod luck!

Middle East and North Africaage differience urgent help plz
Lol every time I read a case like this it makes me appreciate what I've got. To even consider marrying someone before you've met them in person is beyond belief. It is quite obvious what is going on. I needn't say. It really is an insult to the legit community here.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresspouse visa - what is the process?
HI

Well I originally posted in the fiance visa forum but been thinking and now want some advice from people who did it the other way...

SO I live in LOndon and my fella lives in Utah. Basically we want to be living and working together in the USA at some point. I don't particularly want to give up my airline job in LOndon with no job to go to in the states so.... is it advisable for us to marry in the USA, for me to come home and carry on working as normal, file for a green card and wait for the motions to take place, and when I do finaly get a GC, apply for a flying job in the states? I basically don't want to be out of work for a prolonged period of time, not really for financial reasons, but my own sanity. I don't think I could hang around in the states, not working, I think it would actually drive me insane! Is this realistic? What forms do we initially need to fill out? Any advice appreciated!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsHope and top tips from my experience! K1 VISA APPROVED!!

Hi, thanks for this post and congratulations on being approved. This gave me a good insight into the embassy itself..i had thoughts of a chlostrophobic interogation room with coffee in styrofoam cups...i have a couple of questions..did you dress smartly for the interview and do you think wearing a suit to set a good impression is a good idea?, how long did the whole process take for you?

United KingdomLondon Interviews 2006 (NEW)
Please can you add us to the list of people waiting for a CR1 Interview in London Embassy - we are waiting for packet 4!!! Thank you :clock:

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionUS embassy in London UK
:help: Hi All, I am new to this board but have been reading through all the posts and I have found it extremely comforting and helpful. We got married in Nov 2005 filed for I-130 in dec 05 our case is currently at the Embassy in London, we are waiting for packet 4 with an interview date. :angry:
I am totally fed up emotionally drained and just really down in the dumps right now. Our case was completed at the NVC on the 4th August 2006, it took 3.5 weeks after we had sent in the DS 230. NVC said they sent our case to embassy on the 8th Aug, the US embassy in London received it on the 24th August. This waiting is driving me to despair. Worst thing is our 1st wedding anniversary is coming up in beginning of November (L) but I dont think I will be over by then since the embassy said it takes 6-12 weeks for a date from the 24th august. That would just devastate me if I cant even be with myhubby on that day, have not seen him for 5 months. I can't go over to the US either the embassy dont recommend it.
Please can anyone tell me what kind of interview dates the embassy in london are giving out once they receive the file for CR1?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionLondon & CR-1
Hi I just wanted to tell you not to stress out (EASY to say i know), I was doing exactly the same when our CR1 case completed at the NVC on the 4th of August. I was totally panicking and afraid it got lost!! I called the US embassy in London almost everyday to ask if they had received it - you can imagine how much that cost!! But they eventually received it on the 24th of August. I could not belive it wod take that long.
So dont worry its quite normal for it to take a couple of weeks until they have your case in the systems. :thumbs: I am right with you.
I booked my medical as well , Just wanted to ask you when I called to book it the lady said I will need to bring the forms I received from the embassy (packet 4) but I have not received packet 4 yet. Ihave scheduled the medical for end of September - so does that mean if I dont receive the packet 4 by then I need to reschedule it? I will have to reschedule it 3 days before the date otherwise they do charge an 80 pound fee!! :o

Just wondering how come ur husband went to his medical did you receive your packet 4 by then? or did you use it from you K3? Thank you so much for your help!! :yes: ps Im really happy for you that your hubbys medical went well!!! Your almost there now :)

I was born in England lived here all my life my parents are Asian? I DONT UNDERSTAND why its taking so long they give us no idea when it will be scheduled I dont know what to do Im so depressed. HELP!!!! ANY IDEAS
