So I'm gonna go out on a huge limb here and say that we see the first September CSC filer approved by Sunday. You read it here first, folks!

Edit: Actually it's probably a very narrow, small, skinny limb.

Hummm...sunday its the superbowl!! They might be busy to eat like pigs lol

Ok !! After reading other post on VJ..I got confused loll so heres some questions :


1- Can we schedule the medical examination (with USCIS approved drs.) prior of recieving the packet 3? or do they chose the dr we have to go see?

2- Me and my fiance included everything in that 129-f application. ( my police certifications, my birth certificates, the affidavit of support, proofs of relationship..well eveything) So are they gonna transfer it to the embassy? ? if so well technically I would have to bring only ds-156 with 131$ fees, medical results, passport and vaccinations booklet and maybe some more recent proofs of our relationship.

3- Is it better if fiance goes to the interview or it can make it more complicated??


thank you very much for any help you can give me...

I cant wait for this to be over and start studying for my US citizenship test lolll

1. Yes, you can schedule the medical any time you want even prior to getting the packet 3, but there is a limit to how much in advance. The medical must be recent, and I dont know what the time limit is on it. Probably something like it must be more recent than 6 months prior to the interview, but I dont know what the exact time is. Check with the consulate.

2. Bring everything with you to the interview. Yes, it will have been transferred to the embassy along with the rest of the stuff in your packet, but you should still bring everything with you, including a duplicate copy of the 129F petititon that you guys originally filed with the USCIS. if that stuff is already in the packet, just make a copy and bring it with you along with additional proofs of ongoing relations. New pictures from recent trips, etc.

3. You are in Canada, and I dont know about that specific consulates rules. Personally, I dont think it would be a problem if they let you, because it would actually help to prove ongoing relationship, but the petitioner would likely not be allowed to go to the actual interview to prevent coaching. I know in Russia, at the Moscow consulate, they dont even let the petitioner into that section of the building. It varies by consulate to consulate, so, again, check with the consulate and see if they allow it.

Think of it this way: This is the last step in the process, and the last time someone will make a judgement before you are married as to whether or not your relationship is legit. They can deny you or at the very least delay you for not having a required document. Take more than you think you will possibly need, because after the long wait, this is no time to make a mistake and create a delay.

Well thank you very much Bobalouie.....

I know that only a US citizen can go with you for the interview at the embassy in Mtl but I'm still not convinced if he will come or not...

regarding the copies of the application loll my fiance said hes not sure if it is in that file of copies he doesnt remember he made copies of it loll but as I read on other canadians with Mtl interview ...they dont ask for those documents as they have it already....Oh well.. Hopefully it will go just as smooth.

I'll see if they do their jobs as when they send the packet 3 they are suppose to tell you what you need to bring loll

And I know it is better too much than not enough loll

well anyway ty for your help

Howdy!!..My fiance interview is Feb.28..what a nice process ..Holy cow!!!

Congrats !!!!

Lady Noles..paying document verification is only require in the Philippines..US embassy wants to verify documents as a requirement because too many people in the philippines try to counterfeit documents..People from the Philippines knows what I'm talking about..You have nothing to worry about the verification..Goodluck!

well tks for your reply.


Congrats and good luck on your interview

Hey all, an October CSC filer was just approved. Good news for us, as they've got to be starting to open our boxes and processing now. Let's hope anyway!

WOOOHOOOOOO!!! thats good news


Well on another positive note my timeline havent moved for more than 2 weeks now lolll so let's hope thats mean that it wont be longer than that date....haha


**wedding date changed and plan scheduled for late summer**


baby I can't wait to be yours forever

Tonight I received an email notice from USCIS informing me that my petition's approval is in the mail! Even better, I was on Yahoo voice to Yoko at the time the email arrived and we could share the initial excitement together!

I just received an email of our approval!! I called my sweetie and gave her the good news. she couldn't stop crying, tears of joy of course. It's finally feeling like a reality, not just a dream.
Best of luck to all in the Que and special thanks to those who have helped!!

Congratulations!!!! Hey you're the first September CSC filer approved (within the normal timeline anyway), double congrats!!!

Oh and once you float down off the ceiling please don't forget to update your timeline! Congrats again!!

I'm trying SO hard not to get too excited! Who voted for the 31st of January? I think they win the pot don't they? The first September filers at CSC approved today!

now wasnt that good news!!! my oh my! September CSC approvals are beginning to pour

my sincerest congratulations to COMPOSERWISE and BIGSKY and also to the October CSC filer ( wow that was fast huh? -- well in CSC timeline)

what is happening?!!! CSC October filers being approved? what happened to September filers? (i just found out there were already 3 CSC October k1 filers approved - as of today)

I'M SO HAPPY CSC PICKED UP THE PACE!

YAY !!!!!! congrats to all of you...


I'm so happy for you






* my *date of approval * is moving down....less 1 day lolll its soooooo coming for all of us...let's be happy

Congrats James and Wilaiwan!!! 2 September CSC filers?!?! Pinch me I must be dreaming!

mox, urs is coming soon. I smell it.

Thanks all for congrats! Hope you're next!!

Thank you so much!

O_O;;; Checked the USCIS page yesterday, said there was a touch. First one ever. Checked my e-mail today, apparently that touch was an approval, they just didn't bother updating the system. Woot! All us september filers can see the end soon! XD

Congratulations!!!! zomg your NOA1 and my NOA1 are receipted the exact same day! Woot!

Maybe yours is next!

Hope so! I have a feeling this is gonna be a loooooong weekend!

I'm very happy to see CSC September Filer's getting their NOA2s. The wait is almost over!

Congrats!!!

So we now have 9 CSC'ers that got NOA2's yesterday with 2 of them true september filers (NOA1 sent dates). i think thats a record.

i meant to say I129-f sent dates...

Yeah, crazy aint it?

Congratulations all!!!!

Yay! Congrats to EVERYONE who's been approved. So glad CSC is finally getting its bee-hind into gear.

Glad to finally see a substantial amount of approvals for 1 day. Hope they keep it up.

we called USCIS today. they say September filers should wait another 3mos for approval i dont understand

YEP!! its their "normal" timeline... Its just depend on who got your file hahaha


Anyway....another 3-4-5-6 months would pass by real fast..and in a lifetime it's nothing so hang in there.

Most likely you'll get your approval sooner than that. 7+ months are for the ones that have RFE's or problems in the security/name/background checks. The bulk of approvals come at 5-6 months from mailing date (I think).

Evan & I had our interview yesterday in Montreal; we have yet to post a review, and will do so in the next upcoming few days.

Just wanted to drop my fellow September filers a line, and let you all be the first to know that....



















WE ARE APPROVED!!!!!!

WOW! Congratulations! I do believe you're the first September "alumni." Best of luck to you both!

Congrats!!

WOW!!!!! montreal is pretty quick ...............YAY!!! for you guys and for me ( i will have my interview there as well)

Can't wait for your review (which I hope just as smooth as others had)


CONGRATS TO YOU GUYS

I"m so excited ..i dont even know if ill sleep tonight lolll

CANADIANS ROCK

CONGRATZ GUYS!

yeah ur right whats 4-5-6-7 months of waiting against being with ur loved one for a lifetime
ok.. i'll have to get back on being positive again.. go CSC!!!

Congrats to all the approvals!!!

mox, I'm predicting your NOA2 this week

and you know, since Laura was wrong in HER prediction...

...........

oh, it's a cut-throat game, this one; the competition to be in Mox's good graces

Oh I'm already there
