You're filing DCF (according to your timeline)? You might want to update your info on your bio to reflect that on your posts.

Take a look in the DCF forum to find some folks on the same path as you: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/82-direct-consular-filing-dcf-general-discussion/

Pardon? I wasn't being sarcastic. It was an explanation.

Well I was confused as your profile says you have been approved for naturalization--the last step in this long, long journey. You begin the long wait, and wait. And wait. You can look over the affidavit of support, I-864, and begin gathering up the tax transcripts, see about a letter from your employer, and saving paystubs to prove you make over 125% of the poverty guidelines. You continue to chat or have interaction with the beneficiary (your spouse) and save that information. You visit again, if possible or the beneficiary visits the US if possible and you save that information. You show that your marriage is bona fide and continuing. If you fall below the 125% level of the poverty guidelines you either begin saving money or finding a co-sponsor. Assets like cash are taken at 1/3 their fair market value to make up any short comings of income. For example, if you are $5,000 short on the income, you will need more than $15,000 in cash or other assets to make up that shortfall. You can go to the top of the page here on VJ and read the guides on the CR-1/IR-1 visa process to see what the steps are and when they occur.

Good luck,

Dave

After your Noa1 which is just a notice that the USCIS received your file.

You will receive a decision notice which is your NOA2 in about 10 to 12

month's. Then your file will move to the NVC after the USCIS is finished

with your file.

The USCIS has stated that the timeframe has changed in that the NOA2 may arrive in 7.4 months after your NOA1 (hopefully).... Some people have reported having their NOA2 in as little as 2 weeks and some as little as 4 months. It all depends on whatever the USCIS is doing. In the meantime, I would get your docs together for the next stage or in case they send you a RFE.... Best of luck!

Come on over to the NVC filers thread and follow it while waiting. Things change all the time at NVC and this is the place you want to be to get updates.

I wouldn't count on the 7.4 months because im a Jan 2013 filer who just

got approved nov.4th 9.5 months from the date on my NOA1 and I even

had to make 2 info passes to get it approved when I did and that was without

any RFE.
