K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsk-1 visa i received my NOA1 now how long it takes for NOA2

doubtful you are looking five months or less.. more like seven these days although the centers are catching up.. right now you have petitions being approved dating back to july and all the way through December.. as for 1.5 years ago, that was well before daca started which seems to have shoved a plug in the pipeline.. search the threads you will find all the answers there, but patience is going to be the name of the game for now





Thanks Steve!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsk-1 visa i received my NOA1 now how long it takes for NOA2

I filed 2/16, received my receipt number and letter on 2/20/13 I have not heard anything further at 2 months in.....website shows about 5 months for approval, but not to sure of that from what I read in the forums. I pray everyday for a quick answer.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsk-1 visa i received my NOA1 now how long it takes for NOA2
Hello vj users i am new to this forum.

On april 15, i sent my I-129f packet. They received it the next day april 16 from my fedex 1day service delivery. I received my NOA1 and Case number from email and text on friday april 19. My question is that how long does it take to get my NOA2??? and for the status on uscis.gov to jump from initial review to decision bubble? My uncle did his 1.5 years ago for a petition for I-129f for his fiance from the philippines and he got his NOA2 decision of approval within 5weeks...im wondering if the same would go for me. Also, I have a friend and she Petition her boyfriend from ireland and was able to get here in the us within three months...How is that possible? She did the same steps i did and succeeded. The uscis processing time said that it would take 7.5 months as of feb.28 2013 but i dont think if that would be really accurate. I would like to know how long it would take for me to get my approval and if it would be less than 7 months. Please if you already received your approval experience less than 5 months...please let me know how long it took you guys so i can get a picture in my mind and see how long i have to wait. thank u all! Please help i would greatly appreciate it. But right now im just playing the waiting game. :(

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresYour Alien Registration Number was changed relating to your I129F
Yea i herd that they closed down for about 4 months during the summer if its true... But i hope for the both of us that if it is true about the Alien number being change, I hope that we get our message that we have been waiting for to hear really soon. I also heard on VJ that it could be a system glitch but i would highly thing that is very unprofessional coming from a government system. But i hope thats not the case. I will hope for the best of us and for those who got their Alien number changed these last few days.

The uscis received my letter packet on April 16,2013 and got my case number through email and text on April 19th 2013... As of yesturday Mine also says:

" On April 23, 2013, your Alien Registration Number was changed relating to your I-129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)."

My Uncle Petition his Fiancee lastyear and a half ago and got his second NOA2 notice within 5weeks...as to what he said. I wont be expecting anything and trying to keep my hopes up but... i want to know what does this mean???

I see some people on VJ get their notice after seeing this....

Today i called the USCIS and was a wait of 66 minutes on hold so i chose for them to call back option. An hour later they called and said that its an Alien number given to your fiancee on your documents... so if they give my fiancee an Alien number could this be a process of getting an NOA2 soon? They told me it would not be judicated for another 5months... Im not sure if i should believe them because i know other people got notices sooner than 5 months of wait. Someone please let me know what does the ALIEN REGISTRATION NUMBER CHANGE MEAM? Thanks all

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGlitch in the system yesturday but now TIER 2 OFFICER can see my Allien number

I filed my i-129f on april 16, 2013, and recieved the NOA1 through email. Now when i check online, my status is in initial review.. then on " April 23, 2013, your Alien Registration Number has changed relating to your I-129f PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Every day since then, ive been calling and spoken to a tier 2 officer...They said " THERE IS A GLITCH IN THE SYSTEM"

 

 

 

 

 Today (5-1-13) i called and the tier 2 officer said " I CAN SEE AN ALLIEN NUMBER GIVEN TO YOU IN THE SYSTEM" Does this mean that i will be getting my NOA2 soon because i know that they are looking into my case and my papers are at the california service center. Im a born citizen so does that mean it will speed things up other than the naturalized applicants ? I know the wait time is 5-7 months but i pray to god it will happen in less than 3 months...Any body got their Alien registration in hand, got the same message, and got approved soon?

 

I will try to call tomorrow again and try to confirm with another tier 2 officer if they can see my Alien number on there just to make sure. Please let me know if same happened to you and what happens next once i got an alien number.

I have a question. today we received the NVC email which case # is assiged. My question, can we email the DS-3032 form? I looked the instruction, it did not say we can email, instead we need mail it back.
Thank you very much!


Hi,

Yes, you can email them, they accept email and this save a lot time for your case.


Here is Guide to email DS-3032



[b][b][b]
[b]Many members are having success in emailing the NVC to choose their agent instead of sending in the DS-3032 via regular mail. Sometimes NVC sends an automated response upon receiving the e-mail but many times this feature does not work.

NVC takes from a few days to 2 weeks to send an email confirming receipt of the DS-3032.

The email template below complies with NVC e-mail guidelines and the content of DS-3032 Form.


Have your foreign spouse (beneficiary) send an email to NVCINQUIRY@state.gov with the following contents:

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionMANILA EMBASSY post interview CEAC status
I understand your frustration. But we can't really do anything about it. So far, upon reading other's statements on a case similar like this (waiting for their visa), we all have different situations. My fiancé and I are just talking right now that maybe they still need more reviews on your paper work. For others maybe everything that they need is already there that's why it was easy to issue their visa right away. Coz there are some, even if they're approved, they were still asked to submit more paper works.

Let's just hope and pray that's not your case. I know it's hard to wait. I was bordering to getting hysterical too. But we can't really do anything about it. Just think positive and I'm pretty sure yours will be delivered in no time. Have faith. :)

Dont worry. It is really not the same for everyone. Others they waited 3 months. For some who are very lucky waited only 3 days. Just keep your hopes up. Everything will be fine. Just more patience. :) As soon as you get a status of Issued, 5-10 working days it will be delivered. ;)

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionMedical Interview Experience

Hello guys!

 

I am writing this experience to further help others who are about to take theirs in the next few days or months. Visa journey has really helped me and my fiance in finding out the proper documents to collate, next steps to take and queries that bothers us at times. Here's our experience or my experience (being petitioned) in St. Lukes Medical:

 

Medical Requirements:

Photocopy of Passport biodata (I had 3 copies with me to be sure)

2x2 Photos 4pcs

Visa interview appointment letter from the embassy or NVC

2 copies of appointment letter/instruction letter (I had 3 copies with me to be sure)

 

Day 1 Medical:

 

6:30am - Went in

7:00am - Biometrics

7:30am - Payment of medical at 3rd floor

7:45am  - Blood/pregnancy test (Make sure you remember your first menstrual period and your last day of menstrual perioud. It will be asked many times.)

8:15am - X-ray

8:50am - Immunization

9:15am - Vital statistics

9:30am - Physical Exam

10:00am - DONE! :joy:

 

Day 2 of Medical: Results

 

I was called to come in at 7:30am but went as early as 6:00am to get parking space. Piece of advice that I wasnt able to do that I would like to tell everyone-- EAT A HEAVY BREAKFAST FOR DAY 2. My golly I waited for 8 hours to get my results! :crying:

 

6:00am - Went in

6:15am - Guard stamped my receipt "Medical On Process" which means they had me go to Counter A (ground level) to surrender my receipt and wait to be called. Meaning, my results werent ready yet.

10:00am - I got called at immunization room which means I passed! YAY!!! :joy: I got 2 vaccine shots.

10:30am - Back to Counter A. Another wait.

11:00am - I got called to sign 2 papers. Then wait again.

1:30am - Finally I got called! (I was sooo hungry by this time! The were asking us to have lunch but I didnt want to risk not hearing my name be called.) Got my passport, vaccination records that you'll be bringing with you and a CD which you cant open. You also need to bring that too.

 

Day 2 was harsh but everything was worth it.

 

Good luck to those who are taking theirs! :goofy:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresneed help with declaration on how we met

Hi,

 

I am in the middle of getting our K-1 visa packet together and somehow, is having a hard time writing the declaration on how we met. I met my gf back in 2003 at one of the chatrooms on yahoo. We really clicked right away and started talking almost everyday since then. But as the years went by, it got harder for me to go online as I got really busy with life. We still kept in touch but only once in a while, through e-mail. Just started talking to her again in 2011. 

 

I know writing the declaration on how we met, I should have documents to support it. But the thing is, back in the days, there was no way for me to keep our convos in ym messenger and that we didn't know we would end up being together and that we'd be needing copies of those convos. I already met her in person last June of this year. I'm having a hard time starting the declaration of how we met. I don't want to make a mistake and delay the process of her coming here in the U.S. 

 

Any advice?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHelp! Typed wrong year of b-day on I-129 form!
Hello everyone. I just received our NOA1 and noticed the year of my fiance's date of birth is wrong. I checked the copy of what I sent and realized I made a typo...instead of 08/07, I typed 08/04. I'm the only one to blame :(. So frustrated at myself right now. Will this cause a denial? We have the correct DOB on our g325 form though. I have checked some of the past forum similar to my case and they said not to bother calling the USCIS or don't even write a letter coz it will just get lost anyway. I would appreciate any response/enlightenment please. Thank you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduressame sex couple applying for k1 visa

Same sex couple here as well. Both female. :) 

We just go married and just filed my AOS for my permanent residency. My wife is the US citizen. We married here in California.

 

Quick advice, don't forget to include which state you guys are going to get married and if that state allows same sex marriage. We have compiled clippings of news and the law that states it is legal to marry in California. I have noticed some same sex couples weren't able to do that but got approved anyway. But you know what they say, better to be over prepared than under prepared. :)

 

My partner and i are willing to help incase you have questions.

 

Good luck!!! :joy:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow to compile conversations

Printscreen would be fine. Whichever is convenient for you. My wife copy pasted it since she's not familiar with technology stuff then made little notes about our conversation logs. She had post its on the convos for added information. But what I did with mine was just purely screen shots of my phone. (Viber, Whatsaap, Skype, iMessage, Call logs etc.) They never asked for it during my interview tho, but thats what I did. Its more informative with the times stamps and date.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Pls help :(

I just got a text right now from 2GO telling me that they're about to deliver my passport/visa at home today. I live in Laspinas. All in all, it took me 9 days to wait for my visa upon the interview. There are a lot of different cases. And so far, upon reading other statements here on the delivery of their visa, there was no problem.

 

I dont think there's anymore problem with you since you already passed your other requirements. I know it's hard to wait but we all really need to be patient. Don't worry! It will be fine. The longest delivery of visa that i have read here is 3 months. It really depends. Just be patient. :)

I just got a text right now from 2GO telling me that they're about to deliver my passport/visa at home today. I live in Laspinas. All in all, it took me 9 days to wait for my visa upon the interview. There are a lot of different cases. And so far, upon reading other statements here on the delivery of their visa, there was no problem.

 

I dont think there's anymore problem with you since you already passed your other requirements. I know it's hard to wait but we all really need to be patient. Don't worry! It will be fine. The longest delivery of visa that i have read here is 3 months. It really depends. Just be patient. :)

I was interview last may 19 as well. My status was changed on May 22 to ISSUED. I'm still waiting for mine to be delivered. It really depends. Its a case to case basis. For some they get it 3 days. Others it takes weeks.
