K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	About time we saw some NOA'2s!	Anytime a member of USCIS checks out or in your file you get a touch. After Noa1 (notice of Action) is received a touch usually will mean NOA2 or RFE (request for evidence) is coming soon . since it only reqires about 15 minutes to adjudicate a properly done I-129f Did you check the case status by clicking on your case number at uscis? it may have changed, mine did. I know a couple of others are in your situation two touches just like me, but I received emails and they did not. Seems we have plenty of NOA2's today. Hope tomorrow brings in even more! Congrats to all who got one today. Pulling for those who didn't! Congrats and Thanks a lot we are one of those waiting list. Got 2 touches feb 20 and 21. I want to know what touch is but I am afraid to ask... I am sure this has been asked before Edited by Augustajim, 22 February 2007 - 10:43 PM.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-22 22:42:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	NVC finally receives approved I129F petition	Hope all goes well	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-22 11:10:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	nov filers w/o noa2. last touch was?	how many recent touches have you had? I'm glad you did the list, fwaguy. I thought it was basically you, me and Jim&Gemz who are left; turns out there are actually 16 of us left. And yet, they've already started approving December filers. Oh and my last touch was 11/27/06.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-24 11:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	nov filers w/o noa2. last touch was?	100% agree. HUSKERKIEV you're such a great addition to the forums here. Thanks for all your input and insight into this mysterious process.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-24 10:43:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	nov filers w/o noa2. last touch was?	Thank you very much for that insight. I hope our continuos questions do not run you off. That is why this touch concept is such an unknown.... The USCIS online status system is so inconsistent.... I am waiting for the USPS... I wont believe until I have the physical document in my hands... Oh, BTW... my last touch was 02.21 Touches can mean a lot of things. Usually they mean a change in status or something is being changed in the file. It can be an "approval" or it can something as simple as a typo error being caught and corrected (ie name or birthdate originally incorrectly keyed/fat fingered wrong into the system and officer catches it and makes the correction), it could mean an RFE was sent or RFE response recieved. It could mean its being transferred to a different section internally (with the center). It can mean a lot of things. as a sidebar I'll add that little errors can cause big problems so when an officer catches one, its best to correct it right then. This is very common with foreign names where the names are not the same as western names and you (the officer) have to figure out what is the first, middle name and surname. Sometimes these names get juxtaposed in the system which causes a hiccup so to speak. I hate to point the finger at data entry people, but if they don't enter correct information into the system when the petition comes in then it will stay incorrect in the system until its brought to someones attention and corrected (ie a change of address being filed or called in or a case being worked). We all know how easy it is to fatfinger our keys when entering data or typing a post here. Imagine entering foreign names and data all day everyday into a database as your job. After awhile you just get tired, all the names/letters start to run together and pretty soon you can drop a letter or two or transpose a correct date or something. Its just part of being human. Another thing is you may have an inexperienced/newly hired officer adjudicating your petition and he makes a mistake (as we all do when we are in training for any job/part of learning). The mistake might not be caught until a supervisor reviews the case or its caught somewhere down the line. Inthe mean time it can potentially cause problems. But touches are basically a change of information or staus pertaining to the actual case. So, I hope that gives some additional insight into touches.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-24 10:38:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	nov filers w/o noa2. last touch was?	depending on how you search timelines a date will be omitted if you search 11-1 -11-30 you will not get 11-1 I think. I may be wrong, usually am, lol I have updated timelines as of last night K-1 timelines Ours has been left off there for some reason.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-24 10:25:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	nov filers w/o noa2. last touch was?	Yes, we had NOA2 on the first touch and the one the day after was it being mailed or the like. Something seems odd with your case. Have you made any inquiries? All November filers that have NOT received NOA2, please list your recent touches. I had two touches in a row on 16 and 17 January and nothing since. I was super excited because normally after two touches after the amount of time it was, means NOA2 is coming within a couple of days. Not ours though. Wonder if our package fell behind the coffee machine.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-24 10:04:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	We made a mistake on a G-325a form and didnt realize til it was already sent...	I guess I should have said a corrected 4. I had Tao sign four since each goes someplace different if I have read things right. My guess, have your fiance mail you a corrected one so you will be prepared in the event of an RFE We just sent in our i-129f packet on friday. i didnt realize that my fiance had incorrectly answered part of his G-325a form. EEEKKK what do i do? please advise! elizabeth	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-25 11:35:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Will my fiance be able to visit me?	To me, as soon as the NOA2 comes so should a 30-90 day travel visa. Thus allowing the SO to see if they like life in America. But nothing is left up to me. It seems silly to me that I can go to and from China at will, yet she can't come here once without a 8-10 month paperwork nightmare. There is my rant for the week, lol	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-25 11:10:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Will my fiance be able to visit me?	This is primarily true but people that fall under VWP I don't beieve have to show that proof. Here are the VWP countries. I might be wrong. Which countries participate in the Visa Waiver Program (VWP)? Currently, 27 countries participate in the Visa Waiver Program, as shown below: Visa Waiver Program - Participating Countries. Andorra Iceland Norway Australia Ireland Portugal Austria Italy San Marino Belgium Japan Singapore Brunei Liechtenstein Slovenia Denmark Luxembourg Spain Finland Monaco Sweden France the Netherlands Switzerland Germany New Zealand United Kingdom http://travel.state.....html#countries She can as long as she shows strong ties to her home country, and most of the time a return ticket isn't strong enough. Things like a lease or mortgage, proof of employment, bills, that sort of thing. I'm sure there are other types of proof that I haven't mentioned. However, when she comes to the POE, she should be truthful. Lying is a NO NO. Edited by Augustajim, 25 February 2007 - 10:43 AM.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-25 10:43:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Supporting Documentation for I134 form	It is a matter of do you meet the 125%. If you well meet that requirement don't wear yourself out trying to complete every line. I included 2006,2005,2004 tax returns, A statement from two different banks stating, Mr Jim has over $5,000 on deposit in such and such bank and I left it at that, I did not disclose, life insurance, or stocks or any of the rest of it. I well met the criteria so I provided them with such evidence. I did not see any reason to list all assets when my income well covered it all. If you are borderline on the 125% show all you can. hope this helps. Jim	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-27 00:35:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Dec filer NOA2 email notice	http://guangzhou.use...ket_forms2.html thats packet 3 and 4 info. once nvc sends it on, Guangzhou will sit on it for 2 months before they admit they have it. About a week after that they send out packet 3. Once it's returned they schedule the medical and the interview. Only 5 months left to the visa now if all goes well. I filed on 12/14 and received Email notice Application Type: I129F , PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) Current Status: Approval notice sent. On February 27, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service. What to do what to do. Nervous is me. 134 stuff get it together Wait for the notice and what else ? How much longer does the process usually take from here on out ? Edited by Augustajim, 28 February 2007 - 09:26 PM.	Augustajim	Male	Vietnam	2007-02-28 21:25:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Dec filer NOA2 email notice	Tao insisted as well that I needed all of that paperwork and sent it to me as well. I filed on 12/14 and received Email notice Application Type: I129F , PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) Current Status: Approval notice sent. On February 27, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice.

How much longer does the process usually take from here on out ? Now you just wait and watch as it goes to the NVC them to the embassy...start gathering evidence of ongoing relationship...affidavit of support info...and read up on similar cases with regard to the Chinese Embassy. Congrats by the way...the first part is over! Your other half will now be waiting for packet 3 with instructions on the medical. Have they applied to the police reports yet? Thats always something that can be done now as well. Good Luck Beleive it or not she has already gotten the police report and unmarried report and birth certificate(I sent a copy of her BC with my 129F) Translated and notarized. She sent it all to me and now I have to send it all back. She applied for all this before I sent for the 129F. It took me about a month to get the 129F together.
