Okay experienced ones....question about I-134:
The instructions say...provide in duplicate evidence of income...
so does that mean 2 bank statements, 2 letters from employer, etc?

Also is it okay to follow the example completely....there is a lot of stuff just left blank on there.

Thanks!

Hey all! Called the Consulate in Rio today and our interview date is March 10th....WOOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!
One question...the I-134 on their website is still the old one that requires you to have it notarized....so should I use this form or the one on USCIS.gov?
Thanks a bunch!

Okay I need some help from you pros now wink.gif
I'm gathering the documents for the I-134 to send to my fiance'....Are copies of the tax return, pay stubs, etc okay. I will send the original employment letters, but I would like to keep the originals for everything else. Also do I need to send 2 copies of each? Does my fiance' need copies of the NOA1 and NOA2? Thanks a bunch!!!

Hey guys....question....(trying to prepare for setting a wedding date)

The day that my fiance' enters the US is day #1...so do we have 90 days from that point to get married? Or do you get married a bit before so you can file the AOS by the 90 day mark?

I cannot tell you how happy we are. Sitting here crying and drinking champagne. There is still no end on the road but we probably made the hardest part!!!

I love you guys and thanks to everyone who prayed and supported us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey,

we keep trying to call USCIS but they don't want to transfer us to a 2nd level supervisor. How can we get there? They say they won't transfer us as long as we are not outside of the normal processing time...How can we get through??




The only thing I know to tell you to do is keep trying....and hope you get someone nice that will transfer you through. I talked to 3 different people before I finally got someone who would send me through. And I only asked to be transfered to the next level of support and she said okay. Good Luck!

well I just got off the phone with the USCIS....after attempting once last week and twice today....I finally got someone who would transfer me to the next level of support. The officer told me that our case was still pending (duh) and that these could take up to 9 months so now all we do is wait....easy for him to say...ahhhhhhhhhh. Okay sorry. I guess I feel a little better after talking to someone who knows what they are talking about and being reassured that there is nothing wrong with our case. Just praying we hear some answers sooon! (And they go back and get those beginning of June files)

Congrats to everyone who has gotten great news and moving along to the next stage! smile.gif


9 months??? unsure.gif



ummmm yeah...apparently the 6 months is a joke (and it also says as of Aug 31). So everytime I have called they say they are still working on files with dates in March. mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif

Igor's List shows out of the last 20 NOA2s, 16 were Junes. Your NOA1 was early June, so I'd say any day now they could be working your case--and that's when the waiting is worst, when it can come at any time.

Just to add to my other post....this is what my Senator sent me.

I just followed up with the Vermont Center and they informed us that they do process the cases by date. I talked with the supervisor there and she said the only reason those other applicants would have received their approval notices before you is if their case had been expedited. If this is not the case and you know this for sure, she suggests you provide us with the receipt # and name of another applicant you know that received theirs before yourself but had a later received date and they will look into this. You can email me the information if you like….


I am not quite sure how to go around that BS claim that they process cases in order they receive them with the exception of the expedited ones. We all know it's a bunch of BS. There is no way bunches and bunches of people who got approved before you were all expedited. Additionally, we all know that expedited cases usually take 1-2 months to process vs. 4+ months for regular cases, so it's really easy to tell the difference. I don't know if people would be willing to share their receipt numbers since it's a sensitive information, but maybe tell your senator to take a look at Igor's list and when they see last 20 filers who were approved were all July/August filers, common sense will take over. Hope this helps at least a little bit.



Thank you so much for your response. I included the latest of Igor's list with my letter. But without receipt numbers that the supervisor at Vermont can look up its just "hear say."


Well, I think they are just trying to not-so-politely shut you up. Don't get off their backs until you get a clear answer! Igor's list is a hearsay? Sure, you must have made it up yourself to make them look bad. And I'm pretty sure the supervisor in Vermont has the ability to look up last 20, 50 or 100 approved cases and see the filing dates for those. Ask your contact person at the Senator's office to point it out to that wonderful supervisor.

Good luck!



Thanks for your encouragment!!! Def not gonna get off their back. I think its time that citizens stood up and made some changes to this process!!!
