I have heard that time goes quick after the NOA2....Is this correct?

Not too long now!!! :thumbs: :dance:


Yes, Amars ! I believe in most cases after one receives NOA 2 it goes faster. The NVC should be an express stop ( in and out in a few days ) and then everything depends on the embassies. Some are faster and easier others not. I have a good experience with our embassy here in Slovenia. We' ll see how it' s gonna be this time. :P

COME ON CSC !!! Time to make some in - love people sooo happy !!! :P

Impatiently waiting with the rest of you...


Hello AKguy, welcome ! No, you aren' t too late as the dancing with the approvals didn' t start yet ! :crying:

87 days for us today and I have to say it : California, you are breaking my heart !!! :crying:

Still one day to go and a few fridays ago they came out with sooo many NOA' s. Probably this won' t be the case as it looks ! :crying:

I' m glad some of you people have a chance to get together with your loved ones ! I believe such reunion can be a very lovely and beautiful " help " during this torturous wait. This is the reason why I want everything to be done as soon as possible so I can finally start a normal and a married life with my man ! :luv:

I truly truly hope our NOA 2 is gonna come sometime soon so we can get ready for the next stage of this process. Today . . . 86 days for us . . . California dreamin . . . :wub:

Until last week I was doing pretty well. :whistle: Once the November approvals started to show up I got nervous, excited, worried . . . all possible feelings mixed together. :wacko:

It' s been 85 days for us too ( today ) and no touches, no NOA' s yet. I had high hopes for this week ( still 3 days to go and I even saw an October filer getting his NOA during the past weekend. So, the adjudicators work on weekends too ? :unsure: )

Until monday comes I don' t wanna give up on January. I miss my fiance ! :luv:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNovember 2009 K1 CSC Filers

I feel the same way as you AR and MD. I was just talking to my fiance earlier and we are looking at other possible thing to do if we don't get the NOA2 soon. This thing makes me emotionally drain and restless already. :crying: :crying: :crying:


I understand why K 1 visa needs more background check, I understand why is more expensive than some others, I ( sometimes ) even understand the longer processing times. BUT this wait is ridiculous. I read somewhere here on VJ, years ago all was done in a month or so ( From filing the petition until the visa issuance ) The worst part for me is not to know when, how is all gonna happen. BUT we all knew, we all decided and set up to take this road to be with our loved ones. Is hard but hopefully this is the first and the last time we are going through these kind of separations. I' m trying to be positive, waiting for our NOA and trying to remember I' m not alone. There are many more people out there doing the same exact thing. Luckily, next week can be our week ! :)

Rionet, what do you mean when you say you are looking for other possible ways in case of not getting the approval soon ? I' m curious. :P

Since they started popping out November NOA' s I' m getting worse and less inpatient. I want it already ! I even started to worry as our NOA is 11 / 4 and some with a later NOA got approved. Should I really be concerned ? It looks like they are working on the whole October and November files now. They are approving early October petitions and middle and later November ones. I' m crazy to learn what kind of a pattern they use in a sunny California ! :P

Lindsey, my Sacramento friend ! I truly truly hope you are so so right and it' s now all just a question of days ( weeks :crying: ) Once we are done we can jump into the Adriatic Sea and swim with sharks ! :lol:

How fast does Trinidad get consulate interviews scheduled? At the Montreal consulate where my fiance' has to go, the letter he receives with packet 3 has been saying 4 to 6 MONTHS until an appointment for an interview. Yes, there is lots of courier activities for your lady to complete, but will she have enough to keep her occupied until she has her visa in hand and can come to the states to stay?


Montreal is crazy to deal with ! I read about it and I truly feel sorry for some couples that have to wait for their interviews. Everything else is already painful on it' s own. :(

Josh, thank you for your encouraging words and positive vibes ! :)

I have no idea how it feels to read the USCIS sms and to read the update on their website ! What a unique feeling this must be ! I believe is way easier to know a half is done. This is where the motivation comes from too. It' s horrible to have a feeling of being stuck and wondering of a freakin RFE ( while you are a pessimist like me :) )

I believe I' m gonna have a heart attack when all this visa process is gonna be over ! It' s so heavy on me ! :(

Have to keep going and as you said without forgetting why we are here in the 1 st place !

Congratulations again to you and your woman with best wishes for the rest of your journey.

Just got the NOA2 approval today 01/21/10.

We got the NOA1 on 11/10/09 -- 72 days

Best wishes for the rest of the November filers!


CONGRATULATIONS, BOISESTATE !!! 72 DAYS FOR YOU !!! AWESOME !!! :D

Well, November friends, now is official. I wasn' t sure if believe or not the first and second November approval but this man / woman now confirmed it. We have a proof . NOA through the email, NOA on the mobile and a hard copy in your mailbox soon too. What a great weekend present for you and your fiance ! :D

I didn' t see many approvals this week ( as last one when CSC literally covered us with them ) . I don' t wanna complain though while watching November fellow travelers getting approved. Still one day to go so I hope to see some more coming in large quantities. I wonder if California floods have something to do with a slow down this week ? Maybe I' m just being silly and inpatient ! :wacko:

Ok, people ! I hope we are all there, on some CSC adjudicator' s desk waiting for a stamp APPROVED !!! :thumbs:

I just googled I-797; it's the notice of approval (NOA2). I assume they just put that in the box...for some reason that I don't quite understand. I'd reckon they didn't actually get an RFE at all.


Maybe they were too excited and happy and wrote it down in a RFE box ! Anyway, is such a good news for us CSC November filers to know it' s almost our turn ! I hope VSC starts to take care of you all too sometime soon again ! This wait is ridiculous ! :)

Hi!


All of you don't be sad. Have you checked Igor's List? It says 2 October filers have received their NOA2s yesterday Jan.7 they were even dated Oct. 22 and 26. Please read their thread too and you will see that most of them are getting touches too. I am hoping we will get our NOA2 sooner than we expect too. Keep the faith!

Rionet, I kind of feel the same way. I' m excited and worried at the same time. I' m a pessimist by nature so this process is a hard one for me. I' m looking forward to receive our NOA 2 soon. It' s gonna feel better knowing we are closer and closer ! :)

Hello November people ! I see we are all here, waiting, patiently, unpatiently. I just switched into the 3rd month of a waiting. I hope for some positive answers somewhere in January. I checked Igor' s list and saw the first approval from a October filer ( NOA 1 date : October 8 ) . Tomorrow, another working week starts at USCIS and I hope to see some action during the upcoming days and weeks. I got some more informations about taking a medical exam here in SLO.

It' s amazing you got to visit all those places with him ! Last time I was in Croatia was last year in January ( near Split ) . I' d definitely recommend you to visit Dubrovnik ( in the south ) too. When you come back and while enjoying your honeymoon visit Slovenia too, having a great lunch and a glass of good wine or beer ! good.gif

To a speedy processing! <Raises shot glass with rum>

My family dont think Im crazy, they think Im an ####### retentive, obsessive compulsive control freak biggrin.gif

I labeled and numbered every picture and piece of evidence. I then created an Index listing every single document and used paper tabs to tag and divide everything by section. They may not be far from the truth after all. LOL

Funny thing yesterday… My fiancé is staying with me for the Holidays. He went out shopping for my birthday gift so we were communicating thru text messages. After posting here, I sent him a message saying the same thing I said on the post “I was expecting a touch for my birthday but it didn’t happen”. He then texted me back apologizing and said “I’ll get you one next time I get paid”

Uh? What the heck is he talking about?

Turns out the thought I meant I wanted an IPod Touch for my birthday and I was going to be disappointed because he got me perfume instead. Poor thing. I need to remember he can’t follow my train of thought if he doesn’t know what im thinking! He can’t read my mind… yet! Im giving him until the visa is approved to learn tongue.gif
