Oh well, you check VJ, you read forums I assume so maybe reading makes you annoyed.. My boyfriend doesn't read or join forums that's why he has no idea how annoying it is to wait..

 

Mine never checks, either! He's just so relaxed and confident :D

Yeah.. My boyfriend told me to stop checking VJ because he felt the pain in my heart.hahaha he wants me to just wait and stop thinking about it. But I can't resist.. I I think I really love to hurt myself nowadays.

 

The same! Guys are much more patient than girls, and it annoys me that my fiance is so patient sometimes :D

I know the feeling, But it's out of our hands. At the rate csc is going and if we had a choice. I'd choose there. Hah! I only check 1 time per day and that when I wake up :)

 

 

Yeah.. Me too.. I always check it every morning.. These pass few days, I love to disappoint myself when I wake up.

 

I started to check less often.. Now I check twice a week. And I try not to check VJ that much, because it makes me sad that TSC is still doing December now while CSC is onto March already.

Already done that, there is a post on another thread to contact them, I think around 7 people have contacted them :)

 

I hope there will be more and they will fix this . :(

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

It's pretty annoying.. Specially if you see CSC works so fast.. And tsc is blehhhh.. Just super annoying to check..

 

Maybe if a lot of people contacted the White House they would do somethinga bout it?? I trust Obama :D TSC is really annoying...

I am a bit hesitant to post this, because I know there are so many people still waiting; but I just wanted to share that we received our NOA2 today, just a few minutes ago.  

 

I'm gonna keep praying though, for everyone still waiting for this step.  And I pray you'll support us as our petition heads to the NVC.  Thanks everyone for being such an incredible community. You've all made this unbearable process manageable, even joyful at times, as we get to celebrate with one another and support one another in solidarity.  

 

 

 

Yayyy! I'm happy for you! Congrats! :D

By looking at the timeline for NOA1s, seems like they're still sending the new petitions to Texas. It's insane :)

I wonder if the Services don't work today. No approvals :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

I am starting to get pretty anxious and upset..especially after seeing approvals for people that filed end march april when there are so many people still waiting from january feburary...Seems like they have no organized system...its more of luck of the draw!!!


Actually it's not! The ones you see from march or April or even February are from California Service Center. Some of them think they are being processed by Texas Service Center just because they send their package to Texas, so they fill their timelines like that on VJ. And they mix up the data :)
Texas is processing December January files now. So at least 4 month of waiting for us.

Just got our NOA2 5 minutes ago!! 13 days since NOA1.

Seems like 13 is a happy munber or us! =)

 

Stay positive, guys! Seems like things are getting only faster (I remember seeing 1 month approuving time, but hey - I'm not the only one already who got it in 2 weeks!)

Hope you'll get yours soon, too , and will start next step<3 

:goofy:

 

Congrats!!

Wow, 13 is the new record, I guess! :D

Awww!!! :') I think you have to do something though :D Around what Month would you like to get married? Or is it as soon as you get your visa?

We have to fly out to CA since it's not legal in texas for same sex couples :/ But I will fly out as soon as I get my visa, being apart sucks and no cuddles. hah! :')

 

We're thinking about October, November or if we're unlucky with the visa, December :D But if we're lucky with it, why not September? So basically, whenever possible! :P

 

CA is a great place to get married so I think it'll be amazing for you! :D

 

I'll send you message! I'd be sad if someone tells us to stop as it's off topic, so let's talk from there if you wanna!  :secret:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

 

Hah! I'm not considering it though, I was just thinking what would happen. I like to do things by the book and legal :) I usually think of stupid stuff when I'm waiting. haha! It's how my brain functions :)

 

Hahah, I do that a lot, too! I gave myself to planning the wedding even though I don't know the date yet, but it keeps me busy :D


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-16 16:36:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

 

Haha! I know, I'd stay quiet for now :P

 

I was just wondering, What would happen if someone who has sent their I-129F form in and they go to the states but marries anyways, What would happen then?

I know they would lose the $340 filing fee, and start all over with another application.

 

As the couple already shows their intention to get marriedby filing a K1 visa, it would be the worst thing to get married with a tourist visa before getting the fiance visa. The government never accepts lying to the US and misusing visas, bcs when you enter the states with a tourist visa, it means you promise that you're only visiting and will not do anything illegal (like getting married) while you are there.

 

I'd say never consider it!! I know it's hard but time passes quickly, let's all be patient!

Bahahah!!! Don't forget to write your case number on a sticky note and send it in a nice little box with some flowers ;) Hah! I wonder if that would  work :P

 

Maybe it might!! :P But maybe they'll just get angry with me and throw my file in the garbage can... I don't want to risk it :D


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-16 16:13:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

 

Hah! Yeah.. It just a little early, but I have to see some progress or I will go mental (Lol) Even if it's just small steps :D

I think some will maybe get their NOA2 in June/July from March.. maybe one or two though.

 

Awwww! I know the feeling :'( If only TSC would get a bloody move on with these applications. :/

 

I'm thinking about sendind cookies and cakes to TSC so they will have more energy to go through more files everyday :D Or maybe some energy drinks!  :joy:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

 

Hmmm.. Same here, I'm getting everything ready for my interview, even though I haven't even got a date yet. I've put everything in a plastic folder ready. But just didn't know with the pictures If I could do that. :/ It would be the London embassy.

Isn't it too early to get ready for the interview? :D

 

I don't think we'll get approval before June or July at least! TSC is so darn slow, and they are still processing December files now... So I gave myself at least 4 months of waiting. And this is me being hopeful  :content:

 

I try not to look at CSC approvals anymore, or it's going to turn me into an aggressive, stressful person :P I thought USA was a country proud of it's being equal to everyone, but I just can't see how they manage the equality issue here!

 

I need a shoulder to cry on and my fiance is thousands of miles away, .....  :cry:


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-16 15:52:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Can I ask y'all a question. In the interview stage can I put pictures in a folder on my phone and show them like that? All of our pictures are on facebook.

 

I think they might want to see them as photos, not through any digital device... But I'm not sure :/

Hi everyone, I hope your waiting goes well! :)

Have any of you travelled to the US after getting NOA1? Did you have any problems with the entrance to the US? I'm planning to go next month and I wanted to ask you if it's safe!

Thanks!




LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-16 10:03:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

 

I'll second that.. I was just thinking to myself "I just need this NOA2 and it will all be over soon" I am going insane not being with him, It's slowly killing me, We should all stay strong and hope we get our NOA2 soon, I see that TSC isn't really doing it in order by Months.. Some are still waiting since December, Some have had theirs from Feb. *cross fingers* there will be news soon :)

 

That's what I've been talking about! Those Feb filers are actually from CSC but they choose TSC on their timelines because they think they are being processed in TSC just because they sent their file to Texas lockbox. So those Feb approvals are actually the ones in CSC. :( TSC approves files in at least 4 months...

 

I totally understand how you're feeling, I'm like that, too :( Everyday without him is killing me, and I just want to get done with this as soon as I can. I hate seeing CSC approve files so fast and it's not fair at all! But let's just hope for a miracle... 


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-16 02:30:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

I've told myself to expect early June, but hope and pray for something earlier.  Goodness, I wish we could fix that problem for you, or that we could change the timeline format so it wouldn't allow that to happen.  

 

What's driving me most bonkers is that there is pretty much NOTHING we can do in the meantime to plan, or help the process in any way.  Gah! 

 

I've also told myself that after this NOA2, things have GOT to get faster!!! I also like to use timeanddate.com to countdown to the "supposed" date of my adjunction. 

 

At least you know you're not alone!! :)

 

 

I know, they messed it all up and gives us false hope basically. :/ to be honest anything is possible..it depends on where in those stacks is your file. Good luck :)

 

Thank you nice people!! Your support helps a lot! It's great to know I'm not alone! We'll see those days when we'll congratulate each other for getting NOA2! I'm hopeful! :)


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-15 07:09:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Does anyone have an idea how accurate the estimation on my timeline is? I know TSC timelines are messed up because people think their files are being processed by TSC just because they send the package to Texas Lockbox!! And some put the info in their timelines as transferred to California from Texas, even though there wasn't a transfer, they just think Texas Lockbox is TSC!  :wow:  So this messes up our timelines, :cry:

 

But anyways, my timeline says I'll get my NOA2 in June. I know it'd be a dream come true to get it that early. But do you guys think it's possible to get it by June?


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-15 02:18:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Just got our anticipated RFE on the mail. Fiance missed out filling out Part 3. Acknowledgment of Criminal Record. We'll be sending it back tomorrow. Anybody knows how long CSC would process it? Thanks and good luck to everyone! 

 

As far as I know, CSC takes only a week or two after getting the RFE! Good luck! :)

Oh yes it is! I'm back home in the UK now, I left him in Texas yesterday :'( I want our NOA2 as in very soon.. But I know it's gonna be month, I want to be back with him and it's breaking my heart being away from him.. Stupid laws :(

 

I knowww, I want to be with him so much, but seems like we won't get it any earlier than 3 months... :(

My fiance,  is currently deployed somewhere in Japan, is a US Navy, and he haven't received anything from the Mailbox, I saw on the case status the Alien # has changed last Apr2.

 

If you can see your case on USCIS, then you got NOA1, since you have your case number. From their website, or by calling them, you can ask them to send another NOA1 by mail. But no worries, your file is there :)

 

We received our NOA1 on March 6th. So far no Alien Registration Number.. :/

Makes me fear we did something wrong. 

 

ARN isn't something that important. Most people say it's just a bug that the website has. Some get their ARN changed on USCIS website 3 months after sending the package, some do a day later. And it doesn't effect the way your file is being looked into. So It's not so important. Don't worry :)

Hey everyone!

 

Hope your waiting goes well :P

 

Have you seen Igor's List? TSC is so mixed up! They approve a file from December, and then from February, and then from March even, and January... It's like they don't have an order for it... And they have lots of files to approve from all the months, even back from December... I don't understand..


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-09 13:59:00

Also, Lilay, would you be so kind as to post a link to Igor's list? I cannot seem to locate it! I found it last night but now I cannot remember where I saw it.  Thanks so much! Happy Wednesday everyone! 

 

Sure!! Here it is:

I know I shouldn't be obsessing over this, but I don't want to read my textbooks at the moment, so, here goes! 

 

Has anyone else noticed that some of the people who submitted and received NOA1s in early March have already received NOA2s?  Goodness! How does this work? They must surely not process them in order, because some people who submitted in February are still waiting.  Oh well.  

 

Guess I'll go back on buzzfeed.com. :)  or watch "Frozen" again.  Or maybe "30 Rock." :)

 

I know!!! I just came here to say this! Igor's List gives me hope! :) 

And I LOVE FROZEN :D

Yes, It was a "Submit changes' button.. I did it again, If it's not showing, I haven't got a clue what I'm doing then.. bahah! :')

 

That's weird! Did you make sure you filled out the sections before NOA1? Like names and stuff?


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-08 14:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Hmm.... I think I have done it.. But not sure if it's showing up, I just put the date it was sent and the date of the NOA1 :) Is it even showing up? lol :)

 

Nope :( Did you save it? The save button is down under the page so it's a little hard to find!


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-08 14:26:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Hah! To be honest with you, I haven't got a clue how to do it or where to go and do it.. I know.. the shame. hah! Unless you could help me out a little bit? :D

 

Of course I can! :D

 

On the very top right corner of the screen, you'll see your nickname, right beside the "Sign Out" button. Click on your nickname. Then a little screen will come under that, click on My Timeline. And from that, just follow the instructions and let me know if you need to know something! :)


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-08 14:18:00

I would love to know that myself. We haven't been married before nor do we have any criminal convictions, Basically we are two boring guys that share the same lifestyle and has fallen in love. hah!

I'm dreading going back home this Saturday if only the NOA2 fairy would show up ;) haha! :)

 

How I wish to see that fairy!! :P

 

I've just wanted to check your timeline but saw that you haven't filled it yet! It would be really helpful for us and VisaJourney stats to follow the process (and also for you)! I don't know if you have any special reasons for not filling it, though, just a suggestion :)


LilayFemaleTurkey2014-04-08 14:12:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2014 Filers

Hahaha! I've gone through February fillers now, some at TSC has had their NOA2, But still a lot more waiting... :)

 

I wonder why they make some wait and give some their approval so quickly... If only I could know! :D

 

But I've heard somewhere that if you haven't been married before or don't have any criminal issues, it goes faster :)
