Greetings all...

Our regularly scheduled daily USCIS rant will be replaced by:

NOA2!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it, but FINALLY I have an NOA2.

Right now I'm sitting (well - trying to sit) in my office but can't manage to stay still...

I tried to call Vanessa but she's in a meeting at work, so instead of leaving a voice mail I'll tell her tonight.

I love you all for standing by me and giving me the support and encouragement to get through this part of the ordeal...

Now on to NVC (Congressman's office called me 1 hour ago to tell me petition has been shipped to NVC)...

Alan


Congratulations ! :)

Hello everyone,

I' m a November 2009 CSC filer. A year back, me and my now husband were exactly where many of you are now.

I know it' s not easy to be patient and positive but very soon, for many of you, it' s all gonna be so worth it.

Usually, once the approvals show up all goes much faster.

It' s about time for some of you guys to be approved already, 5 and more months it' s more than enough !

Good luck to you all !

NOA2!!!!!!!!!!!!! After almost 5 long months. whew. Hey, I bet it beats me down to Ecuador and about the time I get there it will be showing up in their computer system just waiting for us to send in the paperwork! The question is....will Guayaquil, Ecuador be ready to interview him BEFORE I am set to leave the country July 6th??? To be determined. Oh, happy dayyyyyyyy :dance: :dance: :dance:
Interestingly enough, no touch except for middle of last month....then no touch today...just a text at 9:30pm Central Standard Time. SOMEBODY is working late in California or else the computer held the info a while before sending it out!!!

APPROVED APPROVED APPROVED!!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

I was asked a few questions and spent my time waiting talking to another lady who is married to the USC. They hired an Immigration Lawyer and she said they have given them nothing but grief & lots of misinformation. I told her about all you amazing people here on VJ and she said she had heard of this site but never came here.

I was asked:

Q. How did you meet?

A. We met in Second Life.

Q. Whats that?

A. An online game.

Q. When are you planning on travelling?

A. We are hoping for this weekend.

Q. What does he do for work?

A. He is a Windows System Administrator/Infastructure Analyst or I affectionately call him the IT Geek. (she laughed)

Q. How do you keep in touch?

A. We keep in touch via phone,email, msn, Skype whichever web cam program works best on the day really.

Q. DO you have any proof of the relationship?

A. (holding lime green folder full of it!) I said yes would you like to see the chat logs or the emails? She replied 'No its ok I found the photos and they are better'

Q. (She asked Rebekkah my daughter) Is that your brother?

A. Yes it is.

Q. Did he not want to go with you?

A. No he wanted to complete Years 11 & 12.

'Love the photos around Sydney...who took them?'

Oh a friend of mine who is from Seattle. We flew her in from Brisbane for the day to take our engagement photos.

'Ok everything is in order, your visa is approved. We will print out your visa & have everything mailed out to you in the satchel in the next 2-3 days. The yellow envelope you are not to open it, but keep it with you in your carry on and hand it over at the airport you come in to.'

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports; almost 7 months and still no NOA2

; I am an October filer, and I can't believe why it's taking so long!!



Are there any other October filers??? I am really losing hope :(



I am waiting longer than all ya'll - almost 7.5 months here :( I did everything possible, too. Contacted my Senator's office. When they put in a request with VSC, they were told we, too, were in admin processing and to check back in sixty days.

Which is ridiculous, because I put in my own service request and after thirty days they DID issue a decision (a few days after the e-mail from my Senator's aide) - issuing me an RFE for something I included with the original petition, that they lost!

The incompetence astounds me to no end. We feel totally powerless. We sent in our RFE response one month ago. Still, NOTHING.

Dumb/Dumber I agree with you that my life is COMPLETELY ON HOLD by the immigration system. I feel completely let down by this system. I never fathomed it would take this long, and to see folks who filed two, three months after me get approved is heartwrenchingly unfair (especially since they got to pay a $100 lower fee (filing fees dropped in Nov) AND got approved faster.

We don't even have any of the issues you mention regarding age or religious differences. My fiance and I are the same age. We met in person when I was studying in his country (not online or anything like that). Have dated for three and a half years. I lived in his country with him for almost a year. We have a long term, legit relationship, and to see people who met online through marriage brokers and met in person once or twice (not slamming those people, just showing a difference) have ALREADY been approved, when my FI and I have this looooong term relationship of being together constantly, are both young, never been married, professional workers, and we get treated this way.

It makes me SICK.


Girls, good luck!

This kind of wait surely it's ridiculous. While on K1 journey, me and my husband were separated for 7 long months. To me, it makes all the difference in the world to be able to wait for the approval with your SO. Thousands and thousands of people out there unfortunately don't have the same luck and ability you do. However, I wish you and your fiancé all the best! (F)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2009 K-1 Visa Filers

You apply as soon as you get here just to have it, after you get married you can go and change your name or wait until you adjust your status to apply for another one that will not have the stamp that says "only for work purposes with a valid work permit" (or something like that)
But that's why you apply for 2 b/c the 1st one will have that stamp..

Thank you very much for answering. So, reasuming, to make sure : I don' t have to apply for the SSN before getting married. I can get married first and then apply for the SSN. Also, I don' t really need my SSN for anything. It doesn' t make sense to me why applying twice, though. :unsure:



Of course it works. I also applied after we got married but it will be on the family name I have on my I-94 form.
Since I changed my family name, I have to apply for another card. SSN will stay the same, the only thing you are changing is your identity card.
Just in case if you will change the family name... :star: :whistle:


Thank you very much for answering, Ancica. Yes, I' ll take my husband' s to be family name. Is it wrong to not apply for SSN before getting married ? Why is everyone applying before, twice ? :unsure:


A + MFemaleSlovenia2010-05-26 16:21:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2009 K-1 Visa Filers

I applied for the SSN and should receive the ID card within 2 weeks. Of course, after I receive it I have to go again and apply for a new one with the correct family name because the first one will be on my former family name. :blink: ;)
Im happy that we done that quickly. A clerk was so nice and helpfull and explained me that I can apply for a new card as soon as I receive the first one. :thumbs:


Question ! Why applying twice then ? My idea is getting married first and then applying for the SSN. This works ? :blush:

Feeling pretty well today, so thought I would check in and say hi.

Karen.. my chemo course is 6 stages ( One session every 3 weeks).. so I have 5 more to go. Then, maybe can get back to trying to live a normal life with my hubby :)

I'll check back with everyone soon.

So what's the next??? :unsure: :star:
2 more interviews, waiting for Ney to post good news (F)... :star:

We are preparing everything for the big move to the States. David found that my cat Mimi who likes to eat and had a lot of weight can go with us in the cabin. Im so happy for that because I was concern for him.
The "elders" (Tabi & Mimi :luv: :luv:) will stay with us in the cabin and the young one (Sifki :luv: ) will travel like cargo. We have to buy sherpa bags for cabin boys and the proper transporter for the cargo boy. Im intending to put towels and a cover inside so he will have the best conditions during the transit. :star:
I hope that we will not have the problems with them and that this trip will not be so difficult for my boys. (L) (L) (L) :luv: :luv: :luv:

Thanks for the facebook adds, and I'll have to find out if Montreal does I guess..


HI EVERYONE!

Just got to Hong Kong about an hour go.. got to the hotel called Fuat, and then came right to VJ to see if there was any good news from yesterday. I am on the other side of the world and this site is still first priority (OK.. second next to calling Fuat :)

I'm exhausted after the 24 hours of traveling..two flights with longest flight being 15 hours UGH! Sure makes my flights to Istanbul seem like a short trip down the road.

Most of you are still sleeping... but when you wake I hope you have a great Thanksgiving! I'm off to bed soon (it's 8:00pm here) and need to sleep a little before I get out of bed at 3:00am to get on the web cam with Fuat. I am crazy... and when he finds out what time it is for me he's going to be upset.. but he's worth it :)

have a great day.
