judging from what other people have said on this forum, i would say that it's unfortunately normal to be told to just "wait it out" even if your account is in good standing. I think our NOA2 was the 21st so we are in the same boat as you.

Does anyone who currently has their NOA2 approved know their interview date? I was wondering what the average time between approval and interview was for us.

I am hoping it doesn't push into June because that could cause some issues with Ali already being in the States on a visitor's visa, he'd have to fly back to Amman for the interview.

sooo excited for you Ella and Octav, I've been tracking your progress along with several other Sept filers on Igor's list and it looks like you guys jumped a ton of spots in a short period fo time, that gives Ali and I so much hope.

Thrilled for you!!!!!!

my fiance's family is currently applying for visitors visas for june to help his younger sibling start college here....has anyone else here applied for a visitor's visa while they were awaiting the k-1? is that legal? or should i just tell him to wait and see about the k-1.

:rofl: Maybe all the workers have senioritis as spring break is drawing near.

Does anyone know roughly how many workers there are at VSC? is it a tiny hole-in-the-wall? Because I was thinking, even if there are only 15 case workers who actually are in charge of doing work, there should be a crazy-low minumum of one case per day per worker---that's 15 a day and 75 a week...is that a ridiculous assumption?

okay, even if there are only 5 workers and two are out sick each day and we are left with three, there should be at least 15 cases approved a week.

grrr. what the heck? two October filers and November got there NOA2s over the weekend it seems. How? VSC what is your method?

regardless, happy Valentine's day to all. At least we can be thankful for love.

i go to google and type "igor's list vsc" and then i click it and it shows the last 20 K1 Noa2s approved at VSC. You can find your name under the listing for K1 applicants still waiting on NOA2 and still within the average processing time. it might not be anaccurate picture of our place in line, but it can be a bit encouraging

come on VSC, i just found out that my fiance's little brother is moving here in July thanks to his dual citizenship. if he beats my fiance here i'll be so mad! he just decided on a whim to study in my city.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
i think a few just got approved...according to Igor's list. i am doing some research to see how far down the list most of us are. So far I have deciphered that Mel1990 is 70th on Igor's list for what it's worth!

I moved up from being almost 450th to 150th in only two weeks! holla! Ella and Octav look in good shape too at 103.

idk if any of this matters, but i like lists and i like to see myself moving up those lists!

way to turn everything into a pessimistic statement. I meant my comment as a sign of optimism and encouragement. I didn't mean something bad was brewing, i meant maybe magic is in the air.

Happy Tuesday all. maybe it's the snow on the ground, or the fact that January is just about over, but i'm starting to get this strange feeling of hope in the pit of my stomach....is there something abrewing at VSC?

I feel good things are coming our way!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
I think we were all just discussing that the other day. It may be moving faster than we think due to lack of updates and non-VJ members applying. But, it also may be moving just as slowly as we think. It fluctuates and goes back and forth between CSC and VSC being efficient.

All we can do is countdown the days until we can start making phone calls.

It does suck, but we have to just hang in there.

Four Months today. woohoo. if nothing else, i can say we're probably more than halfway to NOA2?
Anna and AliFemaleJordan2011-01-21 12:21:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
everybody chill! I say that including myself. I'm going to have to start living by the mantra "A watched pot never boils."
We are stronger than this. It's 5, 6, 7 months out of a lifetime. It's like a dentist appointment, sucks while you're in the chair, but after the visit you soon forget about the pain. That was a lame comparison but hopefully you get what i mean. It's easy to be consumed by the wait, but it's healthier to just get yourself excited about whatto do when the wait is over.

Let's just remember not to take out our frustrations on others. As people have said, we are all in the same boat.

:thumbs: truce?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
well let's all remember not to get too heated with each other, we are all in the same visa-deprived boat. It is indeed a small and immeasurable sampling, but you can still use it to give yourself a glimpse of your standing. For example, I have about 525 registered VJ users who filed before me and are still awaiting NOA2. However, many may not have updated after receiving it.

I assume it's actually about three or four times that number but it gives me something to latch onto even if it's not accurate. As long as I'm not the last one in September on Igor's list, i'll be happy.

good gracious, come on NOA2s, today I am extremely impatient! I keep checking every hour to no avail. next week is the four month mark for us.
cant be thaaaaaat much longer; right?

:wacko:
Anna and AliFemaleJordan2011-01-13 13:32:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
aww, im sorry to hear you are leaving tomorrow.
i really can't stand to do that anymore. For some reason i was stronger when i left this time. partly because we were in an airport and he begged me not to make the security guards wonder why i was crying so hard, and partly because i think i have an incredible amount of faith that i will see him soon. After not seeing him for 14 months straight, four or five didn't seem too, too awful.

keep busy and hopefully our noa2s will be flying off the shelves soon!

Finally a voice of reason :P
It is one big ball of misery and depression to be separated with no definite unification date. Absolutely.
However, it is even more miserable if you don't make an attempt to spin it on a positive note.
For example, although I don't know when my wedding will actually take place, i have spent weeks looking at fabrics, color combinations, venues, food, music, dresses....you name it! I have lists going so that when we get the go ahead, I can quickly obtain everything I need at the lowest possible price because I have researched it all.
This separation is also giving me time to adjust to a new job and try and get several things in order financially so that I can support Ali.
Is it ideal? No. Do I hate it? Yes. But if you can't look at the glass as half full you are going to be in no shape to handle the stress that the interview brings with it.
We have every right to feel slighted and ignored, but it's not healthy or helpful for us to maintain a level of pissyness (word?)

Positive thinking goes a long way! :D

I thought we were some of the lucky ones! haha i didn't want to complain about how long its been but it feels like he is away at war. Yesterday was a mix of crying, nerves, and happiness. Right now I'm too stressed out about the kajillion hour flight to be rejoicing just yet!

It means so much to me that you guys are happy for us! :) I can't wait!!! Happy Eid to all who observe :) Let's all get approved in the next two weeks while im there :)

so excited you guys! Ali's dad offered to fly me out to Jordan for free and my parents agreed so I'm off to Amman for the first time tomorrow night! cannot believe it! We have been apart 14 months straight. Doesn't seem real. Sometimes we DO get surprised in a nice way. Let's all keep positive and keep in mind that good things come to those who wait!!!

Wish me luck!!

We came to an agreement where he has 45 days (exactly half of the allotted time) to search for a job and at least get good job-leads. If he doesn't get hired or have any bites by 46 days, we get married that day! Ha. He is so worried about getting married when I'm the one providing for him. He is a bit embarrassed so we compromised. However, part of me just wants to drag him off the plane and to the court house :P


off-topic question, anyone else on here going to have their fiance meet their friends and family for the first time when they come here?
