Thank you for this! I was JUST yesterday thinking about how I wanted to pull myself together on the flight to England. I plan to meet John there, spend time with his mother, go camping, accompany him to the interview and then have him fly home with me, but I didn't want to arrive at Heathrow looking broke. LOL!

PhilippinesDo we get any "Evidence" back from USEM
I was a dum-dum, only sent original docs for the Affidavit of Support (during K-1), so I didn't get my W-2, etc. back after John's interview. I'm sure that, unlike me, you're smart enough to make copies and send those, LOL!!

The form is on the USCIS web site, but you would've had to have attached it to your petition before sending it to USCIS.

Btw, I'm going crazy waiting over here, too (we sent our stuff in a week ago). No worries, though … we'll get our NOAs soon enough (F)

Hey guys! Just want to do a quick update on my case status, amazingly i'm still in SHOCK** that.... while my finance is visiting me this week...I received the NOA 2 approval notice in the mail. Although on the website our case status has not yet been updated, but I received the I-797 notice of action # 2..... in just 31 days from receiving NOA1. Its almost like miracle happened. But I did notice that recently we have many individuals receiving their NOA 2 much sooner than anticipated. I wonder why!


CONGRATULATIONS!!

We got our NOA-1 on 2/23, got our NOA-2 on 3/23!! Can you BELIEVE this?!! I dared not even THINK John and I were going to see an approval this soon, but we were happy for those who did. I hope they continue this pace, and I also hope that those who filed last year see some action soon as well.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAnother CSC K-1 NOA-2!!
Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate the kind words, and look forward to leaving congrats for those of you waiting!

It's humbling ... there are many people who filed ages ago and have yet to see an approval, so while I'm happy for myself, there's some guilt there. And some of the newer posts about "how long did you know your spouse", etc. are troubling, because the intent is to start conflict about who really deserves to be approved. I thought we were all supposed to be on the same side. I was happy to read about others' approvals before I got mine, because I know what it's like to be missing my fiance. All this "legit/not-legit" relationship nonsense appearing on the boards is divisive and hurtful. Everyone's relationships here have value, whether they started in person or online, and regardless of how long someone was physically "with" their partner before engagement/marriage.

And now back to wishing the best of luck to everyone waiting. good.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAny May filers approved yet ?
Hi,

This is my first post on here.
We filed on 5/24, recieved on 5/25, check cashed.

We havn't heard anything since. We had to call the center to ask where the reciept was and apparently they didn't send any out. Shows our case is still pending, and they are working on April 12 submissions. It looks like they will be working on ours next month. Any one else have any other experiences with may filings?

Thanks,

patiently waiting..... blush.gif

Hi Scott and Angelyn,

I wish I had some words of wisdom for you....we have just sent our package back to the embassy in London and someone told me it was taking 4-6 weeks to get the interview date, 4-6 months doesn't sound quite right.....I hope someone on here has some better information for you.

Good luck and hang in there. I feel your pain....we have been apart now for almost 7 months.....

Thanks so much! Feeling like I'm getting to the home stretch.

CanadaThe Canuck EI Thread

 

I haven't gotten a call back yet either (on my second week of trying).  When I was trying to figure out who to call for reports, one office called me back and said that I must keep doing reports until I receive my EAD.... they gave me that 1-877 number posted on the previous page, but yeah not much luck with that. 

 

What is the usual wait time for a call back?

 

Funny... I literally posted this and a few minutes later I got a call. But not from the interstate number. They called to tell me my ex-employer hasn't sent in the ROE to them yet. I ended up speaking with HR and she confirmed sending it. A few hours later, I get notice my EAD is approved and in production. I have an accepted job offer with a moving start-date. So I'm thinking there's no point in filing anymore since I can't get any funds for the last few months and when EAD is in my hands, I will begin working. 


LightsNot TellingCanada2014-09-15 12:14:00
CanadaThe Canuck EI Thread

I have called the office at least 5 times since mid July and have never received a call back. I recently got a job offer here in CA and am pending EAD... hopefully approved this week (considering the timelines here). I should just probably forget about EI ever calling me back.

CanadaThe Canuck EI Thread

I am on the phone (on hold) with service canada now, he is saying he doesnt think I can apply once I leave canada to get married? is this true? I just wanted to know the process I should follow to recieve benifits due to moving to be with my Spouse but it doesnt seem like I'm going to get any answers.

 

This person doesn't know... when you submit your claim, there is a section that says "relocation for spouse or with spouse" or something similar to that. 

 

What number did you call to get through??? I've been calling for days and they say the call volume is too high and they can't transfer me. Boo! 


LightsNot TellingCanada2014-08-13 11:13:00
CanadaThe Canuck EI Thread
I can't remember for sure on the form it says but it did as "why" or something along those lines and I said waiting on EAD.
LightsNot TellingCanada2014-08-12 18:06:00
CanadaThe Canuck EI Thread

 
Do we mark "YES" for willing and capable of work, even though we (K1s) cannot work until receiving EAD?
 
I filled in my first form last weekend (online) but put "NO" because I don't move to the US until Thursday, and technically not willing to work. 
 
 





I put no on my form too... Because without EAD we cannot work. My claim still hasnt been approved or denied and it's been almost 3 weeks.

LightsNot TellingCanada2014-08-12 13:49:00

Left a message with EI on their international line last week and haven't gotten a call back. I logged into the system and they said to do that weekly report. So I did. Not sure if that was wrong of me to do or not...

I was under the impression that this feature did not work for those filing an Out-of-State Claims Department (ie. those filing for benefits outside of Canada).

 

Maybe someone else can clarify?!   Either way - I have never needed to use an Access ID throughout this process.

 

Hmm... I called the voicemail number today and left a message. I just hope i'm filing it the right way. 1) termination and then if that fails or I get denied 2) relocation claim.

How long does it take for Service Canada to send you the access ID? I'm trying to set up an account online but no luck...
