August 2008 Filers

[HYENA 4]

Got the approval yesterday afternoon!!! I hope everyone gets theirs soon! Thanks for all the help VJer's!

I secretly hate you (I mean CONGRATULATIONS, I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU)!

jealousy is terrible...I want that to be me! "It's all about me" lol!

That's really nice! I'll have to look and see what we have to do once NOA2 comes (if anything)...I've been so focused on getting it, not sure if I should be doing something!

OK, they're working on some August filers now!!!! Looking good!!!!!!!!! (pant pant)

I'm #122 on vsc waiting...sent 8/3 NOA1 8/14. Seen a couple after me get it...then some late April and May one's coming in now, too (I guess that worker's off Maternity leave) LOL!

Our NOA1 date is the same Hope we're soon.

I wish this would hurry up.. every time I check the USCIS website (which is frequently after the 125 day mark) it feels like my heart is in my mouth

Your fiance should have the receipt the number starts with EAC......, Did you guys hire a lawyer? if not then you can check the status online signing in the www.uscis.gov

webpage.

Ok i am new to the all forum thing. They received my fiance application on August 1 and on Augut 18 they send the receipt number. From that time i haven't even heard anything from them. Is any of you in the same situation??? Good luck to everybody. I filed the application in Vermont Center.

Yes i have the EAC number but i don't think they even upgrade it or it least thats what it looks like. I check USCIS website more than i check my email at work.

At this point most everyone is still in the same position as you, there have been maybe 15 or so august filers approved so far but it's only the beginning, they literally just started approving august filers (that we know of) last friday, in theory they should be working on august petitions for almost a month total... so don't panic yet... but feel free to whine about your NOA2 until it finally does show up... like the rest of us!

Thank you for giving me hopes. I really wish you all the best. I never knew this thing will take all this time. Thats crazy and of caurse if you call them and ask them for info they will tell you the same damn thing that i can see in the website. I even told a lady one day i can see that out clear but i was hoping for something more. The only they really good at is wait 6 months.

I just came across this on the USCIS website too...WTH?

We are not paying them for this!!!!!

We want our approvals!

USCIS needs a machine to stamp the word approved, like a hot water dispenser, just push a button and out comes the hot water pouring in your cup, Humans take too damn long!

UCIS needs an attitude adjustment right upside their head!

There's no way to know exactly how and when....

Only thing I can think of is at a certain date they send out for our criminal records and complete as they get responses and review if something shows up to make sure it's not local or more extensive...then move on to processing. THat's the only big variable I can see...different states and Federal notice of criminal records...response time variance...

I want mine now!

I did webcam with her and her mom today and yesterday. Was able to tell her I couldn't wait to come marry her daughter soon as I can. She was as embarrased and excited as I am about this whole thing.

It's gonna be a WEIRD wedding...we march down a dirt road, they hoop and hollar with tacky music blaring and everyone dancing, then I go in the house to pick up my bride, a monk ties us together, does a ceremony, then I whip out the beetlenut bowl of gold and cash, they count it, yell out the amount to whoever is there, everyone applauds and comments what a good man I am, what a good heart....on and on (meanwhile I'll be embarrased out of my gourd) but it will all be over soon enough! I can't wait to see her all dressed up like this....and I wear white with a gold or maroon sash...be kinda neat except for the dirt road and dust everywhere...but that's how they've done it for thousands of years! Looking forward to being adopted by a completely different culture and she mine!!!

You CAN NOT enter the US on a K1 visa if you are married overseas!!!

Its called Immigration Fraud and will put you in jail and your SO deported and bared!!

If they find out when you file for AOS you are toast!!! They WILL check!!

DO NOT enter the US on a K1 if you get married overseas!!

You missed the earlier post where he addressed this. They are not having a legal wedding over there...just a ceremony for the family.
