I received an email update from USCIS that our K-1 petition has been approved. :dance::thumbs::dance:

This is the NOA2, right? Isn't that the longest step usually?

I sent in the petition to Vermont on Jan 12th. It was approved in 45 days.

I think it goes faster now, right?

Thanks.

I was just about to post that! :blush:

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Thanks everybody.

I looked at the flowchart, but I still have a couple of questions:

Now that it goes to the NVC and then the foreign embassy, what are possible problems?

I know the interview is very important, what about the other steps leading up to it? Are there hurdles there or is it pretty much a formality? Can we expect to be contacted before the medical/interview appointment?
