DCF May Filer

[jkutscher 1]

@nikkiprs yes gathering other requirements as well cause I will be leaving on June to take the job offer. Did you somehow received NOA1? Or is it only for people filing in US

Hi there...first post here, but just two quick things. I filed March 16 for my wife and still waiting on approval. Seems like it might be luck of the draw as I think I saw some February folks mentioning approvals in just a few weeks up to a month max. Hoping it will come soon as I’m scheduled to head back to US in June too.

 

Also, when I spoke with the embassy a week or two ago they confirmed there is no NOA1, we’ll just get an email with the NOA2 when approved. Good luck everyone!!

Thank you for that information. Wow its almost 2 months now. I would probably email or call them after two weeks. I have read from someone here that they got there approval because they have been emailing them here and there.

I know of someone who filed March 20 and already got her visa. Agree something is not right. I think you can mail them constantly to follow up.

Wow. I think all three of you make a good point, I was going with the try to not bug them too much method...perhaps not the best idea. March 20 and already has a visa? Shoot I will have to bug them, thanks for the info. When I spoke to them around April 26 they said there was no update yet but they would put in a note asking for expedited review...I’ll have to follow up a bit more. Thanks again!

Hi there @jkutscher. Yes we actually got the approval today! When I followed up the other day I got the standard 30-90 day response so it was definitely a great surprise and relief to get the approval email today. Took two months and 1 day 3/16 - 5/17! Have you heard anything on yours yet?

[nikkiprs 2]

My friend who filed april 23 got email approval today, no manila case number yet.

 

 

Im assuming mine will come next week as we filed April 30th. Will update you guys here. 

[Arkitekt-GS 19]

@nikkiprs best of luck on a speedy approval!

 

we are waiting for the Manila case number too. Strangely they did give an A-number for my wife on the NOA2...I had read elsewhere that most folks just get zeros and the A-number comes later.

@Arkitekt-GS thank you!

 

Received email approval today. 

 

Date filed: April 30

date of approval: May 17

 

Waiting for manila case number. Hope everything will go fast and smooth with medicals.

Hello folks,

I plan to file via DCF first week of July. My question here is if I could send I-130 including with AOS? Or they only need I-130 first to assign MNL case number before to submit AOS?? 

[jkutscher 1]

They only need I-130 andI-130A for the spouse then all other supporting evidence

After MNL case# then they need AOS, isn't that correct? I wish they should just accept I-130 with AOS and everything in one package for a speedy approval he he!
