Right? It feels like September has been dragging out for so long and I can't tell if it really has or if it's because of the anxiety of being next in line.

Looking back, September NOA2s started dripping in around the first of March, so it's only been 3 weeks, and we've seen our estimation dates move up considerably as well. The Berries did work their way through 120+ pages of posts over the course of March, maybe that makes it all feel slower somehow? :blink:

 

To keep things cheerful my financé and I placed bets for our NOA2 date during my last visit. Surprised to see we're still very optimistic! He's betting 177 days, I'm betting 184. Not a big difference, but whoever is closest is treated to a fancy NYC cocktail night. Still, would not be mad if he won :D

My fiancé and I have done something similar. Betting when we will get approved and whoever wins gets taken out for dinner somewhere and a back massage after 😂

Hello everyone! The waiting time is almost over now for all of us! Finally we won’t have to say goodbye to our loved ones anymore! I wish everyone all the best for your approvals and interview! Anyone will be living in Detroit after this? Maybe we can meet after everything is settled :) 

 

by the way I have a concern here about the affidavit of support. I know there are questions about this already. In my case, my fiancé (the petitioner) is not working as we’ve been backpacking and volunteering around the world most of the time. And as for me, I did have a job when we were living together in Malaysia but I had to quit as the company I was working for is facing a major problem and they had to close few of their gyms. My question is how are we going to file the affidavit of support as he’s not working in an office? He’s currently working as a freelancer so he do have some income. Should he go back to US and find a job in an office or is there anything else we can do? Sorry if this question has been asked before. 

 

Cheers everyone!

There's a new interface for the USCIS Processing Times!: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

 

On a sad note: Many timelines have gone up by a day :wacko:

What to do after NOA2:

Spoiler

After USCIS approves the petition, it is sent to the National Visa Center (NVC). The NVC will assign you a case number and send your petition to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate where your fiancé(e) lives.

The NVC will mail/email you a letter when it sends your fiancé(e) case to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate. Once you receive this letter, inform your fiancé(e) to take the below-listed actions to apply for a K-1 visa and prepare for the interview.
