We filed our K-1 at the end of May and just got our approval on Sept 23rd. Just be patient and give it time. This process takes time...more time than we would like. We had no notifications from USCIS until we were approved. Once you are approved, there is still more waiting...Also, I would fill in my timeline. It uses your information along with the other VJ members to give you an average time when you should hear back from USCIS.

gmjdmj is right, you can look at my timeline and see that it took us from Feb to june to get our NOA2, it takes time.... it will happen, everything in God's time my friend! Good luck....

I agree with everything everyone has said. It is hard, but you need patience. We filed in November of last year, and didn't hear anything until February. Our interview wasn't until April and since then we are in AP waiting final approval. This process isn't for the weak of heart. Keep your head up and your spirits high! Most all cases go through- time is just the factor that separates us all.

Best of luck to you!

CONGRATS!! i want to share this to everyone, so that you kids wont have to cram same way i did

THIS PAGE WAS HELPFUL FOR ME during my process:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...amp;page=k1flow <- check this out before continuing

i posted the message below in another thread but since u are already approved with ur petition, id like to share this with you as well:

at this point.you have ample time to prepare everything you have to gather ur paperworks:

- PROOF OF PAYMENT (visa application - for Phils, it was $131, not sure with urs)

- PASSPORT. You must have a passport valid for at least six (6) months

- birth certificate

- certificate of no marriage (if never been married) of benifiaciary

- PROOF OF TERMINATION OF A PRIOR MARRIAGE (divorce decree, annulment decree or death certificate, etc.)

- police clearance of all countries you have lived in since 16 yrs of age

- COURT AND PRISON RECORDS: Applicants who have been arrested, charged or convicted of a crime must present copies or transcripts of court or prison records relating to the crime or offense

- evidence of having met within the past 2 years (pictures, his / your boarding pass to visit, receipts while together, etc)

- evidence of engagement (receipts of gifts you bought for each other, emails, snail mails, phone records, photographs

- VISA PHOTOGRAPHS

- medical examination @ accredited hospital in your area (do a lil research, idk about ur place lol XD)

FORMS available for dload at: http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/forms/forms_1342.html

DS-156 NONIMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION (2 copies)

DS-157 SUPPLEMENTAL NONIMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION (2 copies) <- once you pay for the application fee, the bank will give you ONE copy of this form, with the receipt attached and a stamp on the back of it. make sure you keep the receipt attached. this will be one of the 2 copies you will bring with you during the interview.

DS-156K NONIMMIGRANT FIANCE(E) VISA APPLICATION ( 1 copy )

>>>> EVIDENCE OF SUPPORT <<<<

A completed I-134 Affidavit of Support Form will be useful to the consular officer to evaluate your petitioner’s ability to be financially responsible for you. You should also submit your petitioner’s most recent U.S. Federal income tax return (Form 1040) and wage statements (Form W-2). Employment letters stating salaries and bank statements may be included to substantiate the I-134. Download Form I-134 at http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis.

(about the evidence of support and his income tax return, it will be asked from you during the interview. right now, have him prepare his ITR, prepare the AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT AND HAVE IT NOTARIZED, FEDEX it to you. PLEASE dont use USPS. i had horror stories about it lol)

i had a bit of struggle only on "proof of engagement" as i was not sure how to show that we communicate regularly - we only used skype to call each other, we dont email on a regular basis, we dont do snail mail...so i printed out receipt payments from paypal for our skype credits, my facebook emails with his mom, a few pictures and the receipts and boaring passes that we had. the consular officer asked why i pay for skype, he was like "i thought skype was free, why pay for it?" and i told him "well, you can get credits with ur CC /paypal so you can make international fone calls on a cheap rate.. then he only looked at 6 out of 15 pictures i presented then said "congratulations, your visa is approved" then handed me my pink slip

good luck and i hope this saves you a lot of time for gathering ur paperworks. i was rushed coz i didnt know about all these other things and i had to reschedule my interview coz i knew i wouldnt have the paperworks ready by then.

you are just on NOA1 and you can never tell if they will request for further evidence (RFE) before issuing you with NOA2 but its good to have all your papers ready as early as possible, so you dont have to cram LIKE I DID lol ! good luck and let us know what's up!!

P.S. they only asked for the affidavit of support and Income Tax Return, but it wont hurt to have his W2 and employment certificate; bank record handy. they might ask for it! good luck !! <3
