I will update my timeline as soon as I get my NOA2. Do you know guys if I or my fiancé will get emails or mails? And what's next waiting for us? Do we need to send some papers an documents to NVC?

The petitioner gets emails if they've signed up, and the paper noa2.

You don't need to send anythin to the nvc.

the beneficiary can prepare for medical and interview if they haven't done all they can already (immunization revords, police reprort, birth cert copies, passport photos )

In about two weeks the petitioner can call the nvc to get the new case number. With that the beneficiary can make their medical appt.

The nvc will route the case to the appropriate embassy, and then they contact the beneficiary with further instructions (

NOA1: November 18, 2014 @ TSC

NOA2: June 24, 2015 218 days

Sent to NVC: July 1, 2015

Embassy Case Number Received: July 10, 2015

Sent to embassy: July 16, 2015

Embassy Received: July 20, 2015

Packet 3 Received/DS 160/Readiness Completed: July 22, 2015

Medical: July 24, 2015

Packet 4 Received: August 11, 2015

Visa in hand:

POE: September 18, 2015

-----------------------

When filling in your timeline, please understand that all I-129F's are sent to the LOCKBOX in Texas, and then ROUTED (not transferred) to your ASSIGNED service center- the one in Texas "TSC" (not the same as the lockbox!), or the one in California "CSC". If your tracking number starts with WAC, you're at the CSC, you were not transferred! There are no transfers at this time. If your number starts with SRC you're at the TSC and that's where you will serve your entire sentence.USCIS isn't fair.

They don't care about you.

Want to complain to someone anyway?

Keeping your timeline update does not only help you by making it easier for us to help you but you're also helping others by keeping timeline predictions more accurate etc.
