K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Hey Attaya ... nothing in the mail today other than junk mail ... hopefully tomorrow ... today was the very earliest I expected it ... what is odd is I got a touch the day after I got the email stating the RFE and our petition was put on "suspense" until either we reply to the RFE or the time allowed has passed to respond ... my guess is the touch the day after is either it was the RFE was actually mailed on August 12th instead of the 11th ( which prompted the new touch on the 12th) or the 12th they entered something putting our petition into suspense ... all this waiting and waiting is driving me nuts ... I sure hope after this RFE things smooth out for us. A person can only take so much, especially being so far from the person you truely love so much. Have a great weekend you all ... I'll post any update tomorrow after the mail comes in ... ** crosses his fingers **	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-08-14 16:53:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	QUOTE (stlouis @ Aug 13 2009, 02:52 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ashenflowers, that's great news about NVC! Congrats! SomedaySomehow, any news on RFE? Hope everyting is going well. Not as of yet ... the email said they mailed it on August 11, 2009. I don't expect it any earlier than tomorrow ... I am not sure how long they usually take to get to the door step ... I assume they send mail out on a daily basis so hopefully tomorrow. I just hope it is something easy, something she doesn't have to send to me would be nice ... takes at least a week and a 50 dollar bill to fed ex something here from the Philippines. Grats to all those having a nice fast smooth process ... at the rate our petition is moving the May and June filers will be together before Jenelyn and I	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-08-13 16:58:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Oh trust me they have plenty of evidence of relationship between her and I ... I sent in probably 10-15 full Yahoo messenger chats between her and I, cell phone bills from November 08 - April 09 , tons of pictures of her and I and her family when I was there in March/April. Chikka messages ( Chikka is a service that allows you to txt a cell phone in the phils for free from a pc and they can respond for 2 pesos) ... I really don't think evidence of relationship is the issue ... It's either they need to clarify that we are not already married ( I posted earlier in the thread about this ) ... they may be confused as her and I both have matching engagement rings we had made by a real goldsmith in March when I was there. We both wear these and have many pictures with me seen wearing it clearly on my ring finger ... on occasion we call each other husband and wife in the chats .. or husband and wife to be soon. So they maybe asking us to clarify this for them .. I am not sure... my guess however they would of straight out denied our case if they though this was the case. I think the more logical thing is they are going to ask for a photo copy of my full passport ... I believe I sent in the long form of birth certificate ... the long form inlcludes both the mother and fathers name on it ... which mine does. Well I hope that is what it is because I already have a fully scanned copy of my full passport anyway because Jenelyn needed it for her CFO in the Philippines last month .. if we are lucky thats all they will need ... over night that puppy and hopefully get the approval soon after.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Sigh ... I can't imagine what they are going to ask for ... only thing I can think of is I didn't include a photo copy of my passport ... but included all airline tickets/ boarding passes / iterneries / hotel receipts etc ... and a original birth certificate ... I was all excited yesterday for the approval finally and yet we get this just to add more waiting waiting time ... pisses me right off this process ..

I think the whole 'they may be already married' thing doesn't come up until the consulate stage? Correc tme if I'm wrong. I don't even think that your fathers wife being cousins with your fiance would come up, at least I can't imagine a question that would lead into that. Best of luck to you, its coming soon!! Very sweet and supportive thank you very much Jauque Well they do know Jenelyn and my fathers wife are cousins because I included it on the cover letter I made with our petition ... I really wanted it to be up front and honest and not be a suprise later in the process to anyone ... they typically ask if they have any relatives already in the US ( At least the USEM seems to ask this pretty commonly) so that is why I included that information right up and front for them. We had nothing to hide and I am glad and happy I met Jenelyn through a relative, I just hope they see it the same way as we do. You could be right about the "already married thing" .... lucky for her and I the Philippines tracks who is single .. and she already has her cenomar ( which is a certificate of singleness .. meaning no record of any marriage in the philippines ) and she got this after I left there in April so that should be good to go ... Also, I think the fact that you are honest does show your sincerity in the relationship. I would not worry, as their are March 09 filers in CSC that still are not approved. I get so worried as well, but don't have anything in my background check to worry about. I did get a speeding ticket, and believe it or not even got a ticket for talking on the cell phone while driving. I am embarassed about that. It was my fault, but I never will do that again. For instance, in India a lot of petitioners here do meet their fiance or wife in this fashion. They all have gotten approved, and successfully completed the process. I do not believe the way you met should be a factor. Ahhh thank you very much Starlight .. it is good to know others have met this way and made it through this process fine ... I would be interested in how many American- American couples meet this way ... I would be willing to bet close to 50% ... I just am over analyzing every possiblity right now I think and wondering why the heck we didn't get approved with that big wave of approvals a few weeks back ... there was I believe 5 of us with the same NOA1 date of April 30th with received dates within a few days of each other ... all have been approved except for Jenelyn and I ... everyone keeps telling me to be patient the time will come hehe ... even Jenelyn told me to just relax tonight because the only choice we have right now is to wait wait wait ... nothing we can do ... she is amazing like that Thanks again Starlight for the encouragement	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-08-07 21:49:00

It's been pretty vacant around here! Jenelyn and I are still waiting ... unfourtantly my gut feelings are telling me we are going to be one of the long waits .... I think our case is a little more complicated than some of the others ... for one my fathers wife and Jenelyn are cousins ( I have been told this isn't that big of a issue especially from the Philippines) ... However, at this point my biggest worry is they may think we are already married ... because we both have and wear matching engagement rings we had made by a real goldsmith on my trip to the Philippines to see her in March and April. It is seen in many of the pictures of us together ... the picture of her and I in a nicely flowered church with the rings on doesn't help much either ( It was the barangays fiesta that day and they decorate the church for annual fiesta ) ... and in some of the chat logs we do call each other husband and wife or husband and wife to be on occasion ... her and I know full well we have not had a legal wedding and not even a cermonal type celebration yet ... but all that stuff mentioned above has me really worried now .... not sure what is going to happen or how long this is going to take ... the other option of why our case isn't getting approved along with the others in the same line is we are stuck in a FBI check like some of the March filers ... which I am 100% confident that won't yield anything .. the worst I have done is get a few speeding tickets .. and driving without insurance many years back ... so we sit here and wait to see what happens ... I really wish I would have read ALOT more on VJ before sending in our petition .. I would have been alot more selective on what pictures and chat logs to include ... too late for that now ... well if anything they will see by our pictures and our chats how much we really do love and care for one another at least ... Wish us luck and any prayers are appreciated ... We are really happy for all of you who have been approved and pray and hope for a smooth process on the rest of your Journey's ...

I am starting to get worried as all the others on VJ with the same dates as Jenelyn and I have been approved and most of April all together have been approved ... Everyone keeps telling me soon soon ... I sure hope so .. I officially hate weekends now as well ... even knowing a update on the USCIS website on the weekend is unlikely I still check multiple times a day ... and I practically hurt myself running to the mailbox as soon as the mail person leaves lol ... it has to be coming soon right?

I really can't believe how much stress and anxiety this waiting causes ... so much worry and wondering whats going on with our case I do believe they may take longer on our case so we were prepared for a long wait but it still is not fun .. we met through a relative ( My father is married to a Filipina, which is my SO's cousin ) .. so I think they will be taking longer on our petition because of this ... however I don't feel we have anything to worry about as we both are madly in love and they should be able to see that from our pictures together, time spent together, chat logs everyday that we talk, phone calls etc ...

Just waaaatin' and waaatchin' GRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Poor Nigel's all antsy too.....this wait is the pits!! Hey Allie, If you included you Birth Certificate and airline tickets, interny, and other receipts showing the days you were there you probably won't get a RFE for the passport. It is hard to say I think, it seems more or less how much other supporting documents you sent. I actually did the same thing, I wish I would of read here before I sent our petition in. I also didn't include my passport. It doesn't say to include it in the instructions for the I 129F .... I did include my original of my Birth Certificate and all my boarding passes, intenery's, hotel receipts and other receipts ... so hopefully we won't get a RFE for the passport, all it would be doing is supporting what they already are seeing in the first place. So good luck to both of us in not receiving a RFE for this Oh and today is exactly 3 months since NOA1 for her and I ... and exactly 3 and 1/2 months since mailing it in ..... NOA2 has to be coming soon right? We sure can only hope and pray. Edited by SomedaySomehow, 29 July 2009 - 05:58 AM.	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-07-29 05:55:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	We are planning on the same thing Attaya ... we will have a small civil ceremony within the the 90 days ... its hard to plan a big wedding not knowing what time frame you are even looking at until the day you receive a visa .. so her and I both agreed to do a civil wedding with just a few family members ( maybe a small reception afterwards but not sure on this yet) .... Than later next year or maybe even the following year depending on the money situation we will be going back to the Philippines were we will have a big wedding and celebration with her family there. That's our current plan anyway ... however going through this process so far I've learned not to plan anything to concrete that is for sure .. On a side note ... it looks like we may see our first April approval here in about 2 weeks ... I wish they would pick up the pace a little bit though ... still a little slow ... I remember reading in a thread a month ago though that usually mid July they start speeding up again after all the Work visa's are finished up ... so let's hope for that ... because right now our time line has been going the wrong way Hope you all are having a great weekend !

If you only sent the itinerary there is a pretty good chance they will send a RFE from what I have read.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Hey Ken, From what I have read here on VJ is usually if you do actually see the update on the website it does show up the day of the NOA2 approval ... so basically yes to your question ... but the problem is it seems the majority of the people get no updates on the website. BTW ... hope you all have a great weekend ... we are all getting closer and closer ... mid July really looks feasible to see our first April approval	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-06-13 09:59:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Honestly we could possibly see April approvals sometime mid July ... IF things keep moving along now as they have started too ..... but than again I have to keep telling myself to remember .... plan for the worst and pray for the best hehe	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-06-13 08:45:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	I feel the same way USAGROOM ... it does cost quite a bit of money to travel ..... my biggest problem is getting another 2 or 3 weeks off of work this year .. .it's just not going to happen ... I would love to go see my SO again before she arrives here but it just won't be possible without having to look for a different job most likely when I returned ....

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Thank goodness for video chats eh! Neil Good morning fellow April Filers ! Happy Sunday! That's exactly how I feel when I leave my mailbox everyday afternoon heheh ... I say some naughty words to it as I walk away as well lol	SomedaySomehow	Female	Philippines	2009-06-07 06:49:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	April 2009 K-1 Filers	Well looking the current numbers .... they are working cases with NOA dates around the end of Feb. ( Feb. 23ish to be exact ) .. of course always previous cases that are straggling behind ... but that is about where they are currently at ... there seemed to be quite a few March applicants which could take a little longer to process ... but there seem to be a pretty small amount of April filers. I think we will start seeing April approvals already towards the end of July finishing up with most by the end of August ... the work visas should for the most part be completed now as they take around 2 months to complete and the quota fills up fast. So they should be back to normal soon. OF course this is all a guess on my part and pure speculation and a little bit of dreaming maybe hehe. Like most here we to will be doing a Civil wedding whenever we can ... its hard to plan anything big not knowing when you will finally be able to have your wedding. So our current plan is to marry civil ASAP ... have a small reception here with the US family .... than return to the Philippines sometime next year and have a Catholic wedding and celebration there as well with the family in the Philippines ... still undecided if we will do the legal documents in the Philippines as well ...
