Thanks.."setvew158" good.gif

My fiance received Packet3 today...

May I know that when u submit I-134? I think that with packet4 rite?..



yes with packet 4, IM not sure with Inda as it changes a little form embassy to embassy but in Philippines you take all of packet 4 with you to the interview and its turned in then. But im not positive with Inda if they do it the same way but shoule be in the instruction packet that is mailed out. good luck

Hii all ......I need your.Help here helpsmilie.gif ..
if got you hard coopy of NOA2 around 10/31/2008.....can you tell me..Please innocent.gif

What does the "validy date" in your NOA2 please? I mean how long is that Valid - 4 month right(it doesn't change want te make sure)..start from the date from approval notice send...
I mean Approval date 10/30/2008...so valid from 10/30/2008 to 02/30/2009

Is that right?....caz i didn't got my NOA2 yet sooo just wondering about validity time...

everybody's opinion most welcome ..



Mine shows 10/30/2008 to 03/01/2009 But from what i have read you dont have to worry about the expriation date because the embassy will automaticly extend it at 4 months at a time until you are able to finish the process.

Just wishing all the june filers left would get there NOA2, it seems a lot have been forwarded to NVC and the people dont know because there NOA2 was never mailed out and the website hasnt been updating correctly. Hope they get that fixed soon because its really fustrating to people.

Update on Radz and I. Yesterday Radz travelled to Davao and has paid the embassy fee and got the 157 validated. She first went to Bank of Phillipines Islands Mindanao Southern Main branch per the interview packet but it turns out they no longer do embassy validation or at least that is what Radz was told so she had to go to Bank de Oreo (the Oreo is incorrect but it did start with an O) and she was able to make the payment and got the DS 157 validated. One other thing the DS 157 that was dowloaded from the weblink provided on the Embassy site, they said at the bank was not hte current version and gave her new version which she filled up there and it was validated. So i guess the froms on the website may not be up to date, but of no matter because Radz did a great job and got everything all taken care of. I know they say you dont have to pay the Document verification fee anymore but we paid it any way. I would have to get all the way to the inteview and have visa held up because they started Docuement Verificaion back up and we hadnt paid. Besides its not very expensive and I looked at it as buy insurance for a few dollars. She did the text to Delbros and they verified the payment, that was done last week and it took a few hours but she did get verification a few hours after her first text. Dang I think maybe I have used up my quota of words for today all in one post. Good luck everyone Radz and Steve

oh by the way the web address in the letter from NVC is not the correct address for the website you need to go to;

http://travel.state....types_4323.html

Then select you embassy code and it will take you to the instructions link.

Good Luck

Oh yea was nothing new on the link that I didnt already know from visa journey but just incase someone is bored that will waste a few minutes.

Mike those times and listings are for different visa types and for filing Adjustment of status after you and your fiance get marrried. For k1 visas the NVC just assigns a case number and sends the case on to the embassy usually in just a few days after they recieve the file.

Mike and Gracey it took 8 days before we got our NOA2 in the mail. It showed mailed on 10/30/2008 and we recieved it n 11/06/2008. I think the date they give is the day it was sent to the mail room, but im not sure how long it takes to get out of there mail room.

Congratulations Crazy & Mad you cant get NVC with out having been approved, But i think I would check with Vermont Wednesday, the way things been going there they may have never mailed out your Noa2, Just make sure to tell them you got NVC letter but havent recieved your NOA2 in mail ask if they can resend. But even at that NVC letter is great new.. woohooooo

Thanks Happy Dancer for the Imformation, Radz already has CENOMAR and got certified copies of her birth cert and baptismal and she has her NSO clearance, least i think that was what it was called mabye was NBI clearance.. But she knew what all she had to have and went and got them. Thanks again.

Dont know about Canda but the Manila Embassy Philippines no longer mails out packets you have to download them off the website and turn them in during your interview, PI only does what was called packet 4, no packet three. I have already downloaded all the forms listed on the site and sent them Fedex to Radz. She was going to pay Delbros today for Packet verification and once the froms get there she has to go to Davao with DS 157 pay the Embassy Fee and get the back of the form validated to show its been paid at the embassy. Hopefully we will have that all done by next week and then we just have to get a interview date. Hopefully we can get that done in the next couple of weeks and with any luck maybe get an interview in Dec. Well thats the hope but wouldnt be suprised if interview is in Jan. Well Good Luck everyone and hope to see some more approvals soon.

Well i sure hope that some others got good news in the mail today. Your right coaster, seems that always some part of the notification always fails some times 2 parts. But waiting on the postman to bring notifications is the absolute slowest method, I would say most unrealiable but it appears the post office is better than email and web updates. Good luck everyone still waiting.

Vermont is on Eastern standard time, Texas is on Central Time so is hour differene. Vermont is a hour ahead of Texas. I think some of the works at Vermont stay late though because there has been activity on cases later in the evening after you would think they are closed. good luck

i found out about noa2 from website, I still havent gotten a email even though im signed up for email updates, I think the email part is not working. Then I recieved the Hard copy of Noa2 on Nov 6 via snail mail. I tried sending a email to NVC but got no response. So i called today shortly afternoon, I pressed 1 and then pressed 5 to talk to a operator. I then got a message saying our phonelines are all busy now and your expected wait time is 1 minute. Well I didnt beleive the 1 minutes wait but in about 1 minutes I was talking to a real person. I gave her our case number she then ask for Radz name and date of birth then my name and date of birth verifed my phone number then she told me out case has been sent out today for manila embassy and she gave me the case number. Sho could not give me a tracking number for it but said i could call the manila embassy in a week or 2 and they can verify if they recieved it. That parr was very simple and they were very helpful. Notihing like the wait for Noa2. Good luck everyone and group hugs to all those waiting. Radz and Steve

i think it should take about the same time to get to Atlanta as it took for mail to get to Memphis. I got notice 10/31/2008 that we were approved on 10/30/2008. The notice arrived today Nov 6, 2008 in the mail. Not sure if this helps but is best i can do at guessing post office delievery. Good luck and group hugs to all those still waiting.
