I got the word around 5:30 AM this morning that we were approved for our K1 Visa!!! We were so happy that I cried and he nearly did! Cannot wait until he is here! We wish everyone else good luck and speedy processing with theirs! Thanks to all who have helped us out with info. Especially NichNick. You were indispensable!!! (hope I spelled that correctly!)

I hope those of you who hang out on here often take it easy on the next batch of new ones. Remember how hard it was when you went through the process. Some of you all are pretty rough on here. But some of you were just a great help and comfort!!! Any of you UK folks who need to know timelines, etc. feel free to message me to get our info but I don't plan on hanging around here anymore. Thanks everyone!!! :)

Congrats! im happy for you!

Anyways don't stop hanging around here, coz after you got your interview, medical, and after you got your visa, im sure there are more questions, after you get to your destination, or after you got married, coz you need to file the following:

AOS- Adjustment of status you have to file that once your already there, after you got married, but dont worry about that now.

Removing of Conditions

Citizenship but thats optional.

Goodluck for your Journey!

You'll probably stop by when it's time for AOS again. Congrats : )

I do remember all to well how it was waiting around for NOA2, and not really having anyone to vent to from my family or friends. I might as well have spoken Greek and they'd understand about the same when it related to immigration stuff. They still can't relate so I keep hanging around VJ for immigration related issues. :)

K1 process, October 2010 > POE, July 2011

I-129F approved in 180 days from NOA1 date. (195 days from filing to NOA2 in hand)

Interview took 224 days from I-129F NOA1 date. (241 days from filing petition until visa in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until POE: 285 days

Click timeline or "about me" for all details.

AOS process, December 2011 > July 2012

EAD/AP Approval took 51 days from NOA1 date to email update. (77 days from filing until EAD/AP in hand)

AOS Approval took 206 days from NOA1 date to email update. (231 days from filing until greencard in hand)

From filing I-129F petition until greencard in hand: 655 days

lol you'll be back! as others have said you'll need our services in the future. Sorry you feel you are "done".

Fellow VJ'ers saved my wife and I nearly 10 grand in immigration lawyers and for that we will always be grateful. Not to mention calming worries at times of stress, and offering a needed laugh or two.

This is a fantastic community if I can offer help and advice from our experiences that can help just 1 couple's life a little easier on their "visa journey" then the community will continue to go from strength to strength.

Good luck.
