I'd give it a week for cases going to NVC from CSC.

I'm going to call them today to inquire about my case. It's been a week for me.

Hi All,

I just found out from the CSC RFE line and from the NVC that my petition was shipped by CSC to NVC on January 25th (next day after approval :thumbs: ) and has now reached NVC today, January 31st. They gave me a new case number. :)

Moving along quite nicely. :dance::dance::dance:

As everyone prepares their I-134 are you including tax returns? It doesnt specify to submit that info on the I-134 unless you are self employed...

Yes, the I-134 does not specify that, but I-134 itself is not required (although it is recommended to bring it anyway). What is usually recommended to bring with you to the interview is the following (this is a quote from the Moscow embassy web site instructions for the fiancee visa process):

Financial documents from the petitioner – a US citizen: please note, that Affidavit of Support (form I-134) is not required, but may be requested. The document must be notarized. Please submit financial documents to show that the applicant will not become a public charge in the United States. Such documents may include, but are not limited to:

- Most recent year tax returns (form 1040) or tax transcripts from IRS

- Copy of bank account

- Earnings and leave statement

- W-2 forms

- Letter from employer

You can also take a look at the guide for the K-1 visa in the guides section of VJ.

Hope this helps.

After the approval your petition will be forwarded to the NVC. Since you were approved on Jan 24th (same day as me) I'd venture a guess that it's already at NVC. Call them to confirm and get your new case number.

From NVC it will be forwarded to the embassy. The embassy will then be sending a packet of info to your fiancee's house. Depending on the country/consulate there maybe 1 or 2 such packets (packet 3 and packet 4). The time to interview also depends on the country/consulate. Check your regional forum, see what people are saying in there. Also check the embassy web site, they might have some specific instructions.

Good luck!

Has anyone else heard about requesting a provisional file to be opened at the consulate once you receive the NOA2? I've read elsewhere that the petitioner can fax a copy of the NOA2 along with a letter to request a "provisional file" and, depending on the country, the consulate will then send packet 3 to the fiance before the approved I-129F actually gets there. Sounds like a great way to speed things up a few weeks, but wondering if anyone has had any success with it... Thanks

Hey Igor,

I thought I would join the crowd. July filers welcome I take it? I could use the help. Not sure exactly how NVC stage works. Also I moved house since filing so is this the stage at which I can register my new address or do I have to contact the embassy in London for that? USCIS doesn't allow the beneficiary to register a change of address.

Thanks,

Tracy
