K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNot received your NOA2 yet?

The lady I spoke to on the telephone from USCIS said that I should've signed for it when it was delivered to my home.


That is a bunch of bull. I know for a fact that there is absolutely nothing to sign for - it's sent through regular USPS mail.

It's ridiculous that they're asking for another $200 to print out one piece of paper. How hard is it for them to look up the status of an application on their systems and verify the address that an NOA2 was sent out? I totally agree that they should have a better tracking system if it's going to cost that much money for another copy.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsA LITTLE WORRIED!!!

[attachment=4247:024__2_.JPG]HERE IS MY SITUATION...I MET LEIDY IN BOGOTA COLOMBIA ON FEBRUARY 19th ON A TRIP TO COLOMBIA WHERE I WAS BORN..IT WAS MY FIRST TIME THERE IN OVER 20 YEARS...I WAS THERE FOR 10 DAYS AND SPENT THE LAST 3 WITH HER COMPLETELY....WE FELL IN LOVE INSTANTLY..WE HAVE NOT MISSED A SINGLE DAY WITHOUT AN E MAIL AND CONSTANT PHONE CALLS SINCE WE MET...I HAVE BEEN DOWN TO COLOMBIA THREE TIMES SINCE WE MET...I SENT THE I129F FORMS IN ON MAY 21 AND THEY RECIEVED THEM ON MAY 24TH...I AM STILL WAITING FOR AN ANSWER (NOA2)....NOW HERE IS WHERE I AM A LITTLE ...MAKE THAT A LOT WORRIED...HAS IT BEEN TOO SHORT OF A TIME WITH US THAT THEY MIGHT DENY MY PETITION...I HOPE NOT...WHAT DO YOU THINK??????????? :help: ..... :unsure:


Byron, you'll be fine. There are many, many couples here who have sent in K1s after days of meeting. As long as you can prove a bonafide and ongoing relationship, USCIS won't deny your petition. They're not concerned about the length of time behind a relationship as long as you can prove that it's genuine. :)

NOA2s take time and you just need to hang tight and stay patient.

(PS. There's a button at the bottom of the timeline function to save your data - I missed that too first time I tried to fill out mine. ^_^)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportswhat's next after nvc letter?

hi!

just wanna ask what's next after receiving the letter from NVC. my fiance received a letter from NVC yesterday and we were so happy about it. now we have our case no. i just wonder why he never received those forms that he need to sign (as what i've know here). he just received a plain letter. will the NVC send him another letter with the forms needed for him to fill-out which he will send me so i can present it during the interview?

what shall we expect next after this NVC letter?

hope i can have some clarifications from those who have gone this step already. thanks again.

we're getting closer :dance:

to those who are still waiting for the noa2 and nvc...your time will arrive soon...have the faith :)


What forms? Are you talking about the DS230, DS-156, etc?

Usually the NVC only sends you a plain letter - they have nothing to do with forms for a K1 application.

After sending the letter of receipt, the NVC will forward the petition to the consulate. (That should've been mentioned in the letter.) From there, the consulate will send you your Packet 3, instructions as what to gather up for your impending interview. That's when you either get the forms that you'll need to fill out, or he'll get instructions to fill it online (I'm not sure which way you get your forms in the Phillipines - the Vancouver consulate asks for filling them out online, but other consulates still do snail mail).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsTravelling with a K-1 Visa

He'd have to file for Advanced Parole.. and get approved to travel out of the States


To clarify, once your fiance enters the United States, he is not able to leave until he a) has his greencard in hand after adjustment of status is approved, or B) he applies for advanced parole, which allows him to travel back and forth from the States while adjustment of status is processing.

With the new fee increase, the AOS application fee includes AP, and can take anywhere from 1-3 months to go through.

You can check projected timelines here on VJ, but I'm guessing that they're also going to rapidly change with the fee increase coming up at the end of the month.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsINTERVIEW UPDATE!!
Good luck at the interview! :D
~Nini~FemaleCanada2007-07-15 21:15:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsConfused??
If anyone could expedite their case based on "whether he had a car and property" then half of us wouldn't be still waiting for our petitions.

There are unfortunately very few cases which are expedited. Even those USCs who are military and are about to deploy can sometimes be denied to have their cases expedited, from what I've heard.

Talking to your congressman won't help at this point since they're only able to look at cases which have taken an unusually long amount of time to process (and no, I'm not talking two months, more like a year and going).
~Nini~FemaleCanada2007-07-16 13:38:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAnyone know of any delays at VSC?
The best thing to do is just... keep calling. Unfortunately there's no other way to track down the petition that's being forwarded to the NVC. -_-

Have you tried emailing the Chennai consulate to see if it's already there?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsCall congressman or senator!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only do we hope they hire more staff. But take a look online with the USCIS careers these Adjudicators make: $50,000-$60,000 a year. Now, for THIS amount of pay, there must be SOME sort of responsibility. Think of ALL the information we EACH sent in to them in our personal package. They can't just glance and say, looks good, give them noa2. This information we send MUST be LOOKED at, reviewed, scrutinized. They are PRE-APPROVING us. Remember, the Embassy has NO AUTHORITY to reject an petition after USCIS approves it with NOA2 UNLESS its for NEW evidence they find. So the job these initial Adjudicators have is important. It helps keep out those looking to commit fraud, or worse. (Would you feel good if they rushed this process more and let in someone who used love to plan a terror attack???) They have tons of petitions to go through. I know this is hard, painful and tiring. But I for one am greatful that someone is taking the time to make sure all is ok, so I have better security in my home. So I have better security knowing that no one on the Embassy level can find some reason to deny. Im NOT saying that any of OUR loved ones would be this way...but we only see a SMALL fraction of those that petitioned here on VJ. I don't know those people. I have grandkids to protect. I'll gladly wait for my SO. Whats a year or two out of 30, 40 or 50 together??? Lets be patient....let them do their jobs. We may not like how long we have to wait..but Im sure those representatives are working to get these out.


:thumbs:

Really well said.

I think we all have to keep in mind that VJ is a small fraction of those that are waiting to get their specific applications approved. We also have to keep in mind that USCIS also processes a heck of a lot of other different types of visas - and they're probably just as stressful to wait for as ours are right now.
