You guys are ahead of the game. I still have no packet 3, but it looks like it usually takes 5 weeks coming from Ciudad Juarez...so hopefully 2 more weeks and I will have my packet. I do, however, have all my documents filled out... I just finished I 134 affidavit of support, ds 156 k and ds 156. I also printed out the intent to marry that he has to sign in front of his interviewer. The only thing I have left is to print out a copy of my deposits made into my regular checking account, have my supervisor sign a form that states that I do make enough, especially since i just got a raise... and make copies of all the forms. I am so happy that it is just about ready. i also am working on getting everything in a small binder and making it look snazzy. Good luck everybody I'm glad to see that you guys are all moving right along!! That's very exciting to hear!! That's also very exciting to know that you're getting everything ready for your fiance,as for all the supporting documents from my fiance,i already have it all now although i'm trying to sort it all out,it still gets me confused of which i'm going to touch first ,i've already printed out those ds forms but when i checked it out,looks like i made a mistake with DS156 ,i'm trying to fill it out again but i've run out of black ink on my printer ,well,i will leave it for a while and work on with the index tabs . hope to hear updates also from our co marchies	ManilaIdaho	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-08-17 20:49:00

Our file was touched twice in a row (see timeline below), last time on Monday July 28. Others in our case have either had approval or a RFE. A week later, nothing for us. No more touch, no email, no RFE, no NOA2, nothing! Do they update the web site for a RFE? Do they send an email? I am pretty sure my email address is correct. I feel like they looked at our file and put it at the bottom of another big pile. Anyone out there who has had/is having the same experience? What happened next for you?

Wow!!! Congratulations and advance too!!! There's really need to celebrate!!! QUOTE (stevi1123 @ Aug 2 2008, 01:25 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi All, I feel much better now. My support system is very important to me. Thank you for checking in to say hello. Kristen, I can relate to the procrastination thing, but in this case, it is my fiance Taiwo's fault. He has to get his police clearance certificate in order. Since he has to submit from two different countries, we wanted to wait in order not to have old certificates. So, now we pray that it does not take forever for the Africa certificate, but it looks like is should not be that long. The UK police certificate is the easier one to obtain. But all is going well. The NVC just passed it so quickly to the Embassy. After all this time feeling like it all was taking too long, now that time has just literally flown by, it seems so unbelievable. ManilaIdaho, looks like you are doing really good with getting things together too. I look forward to hearing more from you. Possum, I think this is the first time I have corresponded with you. I have seen many of your posts, but it is nice to finally connect. Has anyone ever told you that you and your fiance look a lot alike On your avatar picture, you look like twins! You look like a very happy couple together. Take care everyone, until later, Stevi Hi Stevi,I thought of gathering those documents first because here when you applied for it you'll get it after a few working days that's why i have to secure that first so i wont be worried not getting it on time.and I can now fill up those DS forms since we already got our MANILA case number from NVC QUOTE (caityrose @ Aug 2 2008, 05:59 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm still here!!!! I had Angel gather all the letters I have written him and all the scraps of the packages I have sent him, so I could start making copies of it for evidence! The only semi-awkward thing is that here in Mexico, you can't just go to a copy machine and make copies of stuff- you have to go to a place that makes copies, and they make them for you. So, I decided I would just take like 4 letters to one place and make copies. Then take a few more letters and go to a different place, and so on. They might think I'm strange if I come in with 15 letters and pieces of packages and ask for copies of all of them! hehe. Wouldn't be the first time someone here thought I was strange though... Anyway, I plan on calling the NVC on Monday to see if our petition has been sent to Ciudad Juarez. Had a very enjoyable evening last night. Angel and I went to a cute little outdoor cafe and had some wine (we decided it could be a late celebration of the NOA2), and then went salsa dancing My favorite thing to do in Mexico! Hope everyone is doing well! Caity Hi Caity,I can imagine how you're enjoying dancing the salsa with your fiance.that's so sweet ENJOY THE WEEKEND GUYS!!!

I went a little overboard with all of the proof, but I would rather be safe than sorry. Although I can easily just send them to him, we would prefer to do it together. We are making memories, and we want to absorb as much togetherness as we can. Plus, he wants to take me to his church and introduce me to some of the members there. We did not go when I was there in February. I will probably just stay about 10 days during that visit. Shortly thereafter (hopefully shortly), when he receives his interview date, I will go right back to London and support him as he goes through his interview, even though I will not be allowed in the interview with him. It is our prayer that he will be granted the visa with no problems, and we will then proceed to empty his apartment/flat, and board the plane TOGETHER, and enter through the POE to start our lives together forever!! We will have a court/registry marriage first, then later, a large reception for our US family. Then, after he is approved for AP, we will go to Africa and have a huge traditional wedding with our family there. That's our plan (by God's Grace) Stevi That will be a great plan for you and your fiance.It'll be a good time to enjoy each other and give him all the support that you can give during the interview .Thinking about boarding the plane and flying together will be absolutely great!!! QUOTE (caityrose @ Jul 28 2008, 05:38 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hm... our story. Well, when Angel and I started this process, we thought it would be ideal to plan for a wedding for next summer (2009). I will graduate from college next May, and so we thought it would be good to wait until I was done with school. However... now that this process is going a whole heck of a lot faster than we anticipated- we are thinking he will probably come to Wisconsin next Spring, since the visa is good for 6 months after it´s issued. He´s hoping to get a better job until then, and save save save money. Then, we will still probably plan for a religious wedding in Wisconsin next summer, but go to the courthouse shortly after he gets here to avoid passing the 90 day limit. It´s not ideal, but hey- nothing is ideal about this whole process, minus the fact that it has brought us closer together and that we will soon be together- forever. I know most people get the visa and then enter the US a month later, but in our situation, it´s important that he save money and that I concentrate on my last year of school before we start our lives together in the same country. Make sense??? So yeah... that´s our story Caity Rose Hi Caity Rose,you have great plans as well and it's really good that you're thinking of finishing your studies first.getting both of you a job and earn money so that you'll be all set for your wedding next summer is really a nice move good luck on your studies and with all your plans and yes,it all made sense to me QUOTE (Angela & Paul @ Jul 28 2008, 07:53 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My first post on this forum, yet I have been lurking for several months now Everybody's so helpful, and just having the stats around is great.

I'm PRAYING and HOPING that I will be in the same boat as the others who get the hard copy NOA2 via snailmail and never get the email or have their status on the USCIS website change! I may have to call and ask what's up since all these approvals are happening right around my time too! I'm very happy for all of you, but would like to be in that same boat as the rest of you :-) Hope the approvals keep coming!!! Good nite! Here's wishing that the next time you'll open your mailbox or email,the NOA2 is already there I'm extending my hopes and wishes too for those who are still waiting.keeping my fingers crossed for you guys!!!

I keep having to go to each post that I want to comment on, and click "reply" Stevi Hi Stevi, to do that,just click the +QUOTE from the post(s) of the person(s) you want to reply with then click ADD REPLY have a nice weekend Edited by ManilaIdaho, 26 July 2008 - 06:49 PM.

Although- this is my thought. The guy started looking at our petition, realized it was 5:00 PM, told his wife he´d be home for supper by 5:30. So... he put down our petition and will continue looking at it on Monday, leaving me anxious and checking my email every 5 minutes. haha. Or.....the one who's working on your papers is still looking through it and will send you the approval later.that was what happened to our case,i saw it was touched and in less than an hour the approval email was sent good luck and hope you'll get the email approval today Edited by ManilaIdaho, 25 July 2008 - 07:03 PM.

I checked my status at USCIS last sunday july 20,2008 it was said that on July 19,2008 they sent us REquest for additonal Evidence and until now my fiance haven't received that notice they sent. how long will it take for my fiance to received that notice??we've been waiting for 5 days now and my fiance is residing in Yakima,Washington.hope anybody/anyone can answer my question.Thank you and i'm so happy for those march filers that receievd their approval. pls pray for us. thank you and God bless everyone. Sorry to hear that you got an RFE, but I think that you're fiance should be receiving the notice very soon. Sorry that I dont have more info for you, I'm sure someone will be able to point you in the right direction though. Good luck!! Amy David thank you..hopefully not for another weeks. i hope anybody can tell me about it or answer my question.thanks guys.. Hi maljesca,im sorry about the RFE,i just hope it'll be delivered to your fiance soon so that he'll be able to send whatever's lacking from the documents that you've submitted and hope after that you'll get your NOA2 soon good luck and God bless	ManilaIdaho	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-07-25 07:21:00
