OMG!!! I just recieved email notification of NOA2 from CSC!!! It says we were approved yesterday!!! So now, I guess it goes to NVC. I know this has been covered a million times, but I'm asking anyway.... and yes, I will look at the guides later when I have more time - but.... WHAT NOW???????? What is the next step? I need to get my arse in gear! I literally bounced off my chair at work
I'm so excited I don't know what to do w/ myself!!! HOLY MOLEY!
NOURA.............

Congratulations Noura!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations

congrats.

Mabrouks and Congrats all around Noura... WOW seems to be trend these days ...everyone is getting approved...



Jamie and Tanya... We are still waiting on you two... You both in our prayers...

Congratulations!!!

Congrats Noura!!!!

congrats!

Congratulations Noura!!!

The petition will go to NVC, where it should spend only a week or so. From there it is sent to Casablanca. Casablanca will then mail package 3 to Said.

We were at this stage close to a year ago and the timeframes always change, but I think it was about 5 weeks from NOA2 until Rafie received package 3 with his interview date.

Big, huge, enormous CONGRATULATIONS
I am so happy to hear of your approval...Best of luck...
Dorothy

Thanks so much everyone for celebrating w/ me!!! Rebecca, thanks also for the info abt what's next - that's kinda what I thought I remembered.... What do I need to prepare?
Thanks again!
Noura

congrats!

I called August!

Start getting your "proof" for his interview together and the things you will need for the affidavit of support. I would probably draw up the I-134 but wait on signing and notarizing until it is closer. I am self-employed like you, and since my income exceeds the poverty level, I did not include bank balances or any other assets.

At this point he may also want to think about having any college transcripts translated, certificates of employment and anything else that may come in handy later on.

CHOUKRANE BUZZEF!!!

yes!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so happy for you and Said! You are on your way....

Congratulations!

Now is the time to be sure to get the police report, if you don't have it already. Also, in Algeria I know they needed the "Certificate of non-marriage" proving the fiance is single. I agree with getting everything (birth certificates, passport, driver's license, etc) translated. On your end, get all of your tax records together, photographs, phone logs, etc.

It'll be here before you know it!

Yippee skippy noura! Congratulations! Yep, begin gathering everything you can think of. Then you get to hurry and wait some more.

Congrats Noura,

I am so very happy for you and Said.

Congratulations...

Congratulations and Good luck!

Congratulations on your approval notice!!!!!!

WOW CONGRATULATIONS:jest:

Noura iam very happy for you Noura that's great news soon your case will be in the embassy ...CONGRATULATIONS NOURA..
Great week guys..Go Middle East continue in the happy news ..wow

Hoooooray! Congrats Noura! Pass that NOA2 on over here when you're done!

Noura,

You also need to think how are you going to send all the paperwork to Said. I opted for regular mail (mainly because I was broke at the time from all the phone calls). If you go that method, remember you have to factor in a month in transit time. I actually sent two identical packages to Hicham (in case one got lost). The copies got there a week before the originals (sent out at exactly the same time)!

Twila

Awesome news!!!!!

I am so happy for you, Noura. Whoohoooo!!!!!!


Meriem

So, I'm trying to tie up loose ends on my taxes and get my paperwork in order - I'll find out on Monday when I meet w/ my accountant whether or not I *really* meet the poverty guidelines (we crunch the numbers to my best tax benefit) - Here's hoping it all comes together quickly!
