Little confused...early approval of I-129F?

[Ju_Dan 0]

Hi everyone,

I just received an email from the USCIS stating "On September 28, 2009, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)." Can anyone tell me if this is this my NOA2?

I filed the I-129F ~Aug. 23 and my NOA-1 was issued on Aug. 25, so I was a little surprised by this email (seems early). The USCIS website has my case status as "Post Decision Activity" (it was in "Initial Review"). I'm a little worried that maybe I've just been denied or something, but both the website and the email state "approved" and I don't think there's a reason they would deny me. I haven't received anything in the mail yet (just got the email and text message tonight), so maybe it's just a glitch in their new website? I guess I'll cross my fingers for now.

I would think that that's ur NOA2. I definately don't think there is anything to worry about though. I have heard a few August filers have been approved so lucky you! Hopefully I'll be getting mine soon.

Additional info...I live in Massachusetts (Vermont processing center) and my fiance is from Brazil. We met in July 2008 and got engaged in July 2009. I've visited her 5 or 6 times in Brazil and she's been up to MA to see me once, so we had a decent amount of evidence to prove that we've seen each other in the past two years and have had an ongoing relationship.

Also, I'm not in the military.

Below is the text from the email I received

Thats NOA-2 notice, you betcha.

VSC built up some steam during the summer on K-1's - there's a mini interview with the VSC director posted in the last 24 hours (here on VJ ) - worth a read.

The VSC has recently shifted a large number of its adjudicators to I-129fs to get "caught up"

Hopefully quite a few of us can ride this wave. Thanks for your thread.

What do you think this is attributed too? We sent in a huge package almost a hundred pages and tons of documentation! We have spent the last year together and she has traveled here twice. First trip was almost 40 days and the last trip was right at a year on a B2 visa....Will this help our process or do you think some people are just lucky Very interested to understand the process and figure out the differences....Thanks in advance for any info and congrats on a speedy approval! We sent ours out yesterday and hope for the same!!! James and Marlies!!!!!!
