K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNo shower yet?

From Kung Fu "...patience grasshopper... patience" :D Easy for me to say since I have only recently filed... I am happy for you... you are getting very close :)


It's really hard not to get impatient but it helps to think that I am not alone and the rest of VJ community is anxious to see approvals...

Hello Everyone,

I am still new here trying to figure everything out. One question I have is: How does everyone make those nice timelines that are at the end of all of your postings? :unsure: Forgive me for being so un-informed.


Thanks,

Randy

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresdivorce judegement to be included with I129F

Divorce Decree for me too, certified copy for me but isn't required according to the 'guides'
http://www.visajourn...mp;page=k1guide



ok thanks ! what is a certified copy?

My divorce judgement was in 2 steps -
first was the status judegement terminating the marriage and restoring the status as single. this is the divorce judgement.
second was the martial settlement agreement related to the division of property etc which was entered 6 months after the divorce.

Any inputs if the marital settlement agreement needs to be included also? My own opinion is it is not needed - for purpose of I-129F the only thing that needs to be verified is the martial status.


We included only the Judgement Entry of my divorce decree because the division of properties is 10 pages or so...

Congratulations to all of you VSC filers! :dance: :dance: :dance: You're all lucky that you didn't have to suffer like the rest of us at CSC. You need not to wait very long, biting on your nails, sweating and holding your breath to receive the approval :lol:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDid I get my NOA2?

Hey guys! I think I got my NOA2, but I am not sure if this is it because I have not receive NOA1.
I have send my I129F in novermber 21. It says I797 and say it is been approved. Can this really happen?
I am so happy but cannot believe it. Is this it?


Congratulations with your approval! :thumbs: Even though you didn't get the NOA1, it's the NOA2 that counts, right? :dance:
David-and-MaeFemalePhilippines2007-02-20 23:33:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNOA2 GOT IT!!

:star: WE FINALLY GOT OUR NOA2 DATED FEBRUARY 12, 2007!!!! :yes:
All this time that I was worrying myself sick I had already been approved. I received my approval notice via snail-mail - never did receive an email.

For you November filers keep your chin up - I have not forgotten about you and I hope you hear or get something soon, I’ll be looking out for your approvals. :thumbs:

December filers your next!


CONGRATULATIONS! I'm very happy for you! So all those days that we were all sweating... you already got the NOA2, ha? :whistle:

Now on to NVC! :dance: Good luck on the rest of your journey!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresForgot to send form FC-029 w/ petition

:help:Help, I'm freaking out right now!!!! I mailed my petition on Friday (waiting for delivery confirmation from USPS, website tracking states they attempted dellivery, but nobody to sign so a "notice was left").
Now I realize that I forgot to print out and sign the FC-029 form attesting that I'm sending copies of documents and have the originals to present if necessary.

Will USCIS send my I-129F petition back to me because of this, even before they begin processing? How crucial is this form?
I could just kick myself. My cover letter does state that "copies of documents submitted are exact photocopies of unaltered documents etc...." and I did sign the cover letter. So if I have this paragraph in my cover letter, does that take the place of the FC-029 form? Any advice or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. And if I'm just second guessing myself obsessively, anyone is welcome to tell me to chill!!

Thanks in advance.


Can I say CHILL? Don't worry about the FC-029 form because it's not necessarily needed. In our case, we didn't include it because USCIS is now allowing photocopies over original.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNovember filers and still no NOA2

If your a November filer and still have not recieved your NOA2 let me know please. Just trying to get an idea of how many November filers are left (i'm sure other November filers might be wondering the same thing).

Where is our NOA2?!?!?!?! It's killing me!!


I updated the timelines for November just last night... Still several of us around....


When I checked yesterday, there are 24 November filers who are still waiting for their NOA2s. We're all pulling and sweating for the rest of you! :thumbs: Hopefully, by next week, there will be another shower of approvals and before Feb month ends, everyone got approved. :thumbs:

I was hoping to see more approvals here but I forgot about the time difference. They are just starting work out there on the west coast. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for the rest of the November filers.


Hi, just opened my uscis update and they update our case today feb.20 from dec.8. Hopefully later on, we will have a notice of NOA2 approval.

Princess, I think we are on the same desk. Touched this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I'm pretty sure your NOA2 are on their way! They just got back working today and gave out approvals to others! Good luck to all of you! The faster Nov. filers time is up, the closer December filers get! :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129F mailed, but no NOA1
One of the VJers here didn't receive NOA1 but got approved and received the NOA2 in the mail... The problem with yours, your check hasn't been encashed since then so that means something is really wrong... Did you get a receipt from whatever mail service you used to inform you that it reached the service center? Maybe you should check with the postal service?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresG-325A form
On this form for my fiance, can I attach an additional sheet with the addresses, there isn't enough lines for his addresses for the past 5 years, and what if the employment information doesn't all fit, is it best to attach an additional sheet to each of the 4 forms? Also, there is a part in the middle of the form that asks for the address outside of the U.S. of more than one year, my fiance has several addresses, that are 6 months at a time, nothing more than a year, only his home address when he lived with his family, does it go in that spot?

I know this is confusing, I just need to know should I type it all out on a separate piece of paper and attach it or staple it to each form, or fill out what will fit in the lines, and attach the rest to a separate piece of paper to each form.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresA Touch?

Hi Guys - I check on my status and the "last updated" date is for today. Does this count as a touch?!?!

It concerns me because of the * below.

* Note on "Last Updated" date:
Your case may have a new "Last Updated" date and you may receive an Email Notification of your case being updated, without the status of the case changing. This is due to internal USCIS processing being performed on your Case. This will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date, but may not result in a different status message.

I pray to GOD this is a touch!!!



I bet you 10 bucks, that would be your last touch then comes the NOA2 :thumbs: Congrats in advance!
