Well there's ONE number that MAY have a WAC in front of it, but it's illegible. Holding vertically:

We sent our I-129F package by some trackable method or other, but then my fiance managed to throw the receipt with the tracking number away within minutes of leaving the post office - duh. Hence I was utterly convinced that it would go missing and never make it to Nebraska - I honestly think the wait for NOA1 was more nerve-wracking than anything that's followed since! Anyway, our NOA1 was dated 8 days after we filed, but we didn't actually receive it until (I think) 13 days after we filed, and the cheque was cashed later still... so, my point (after all that rambling) is that looking at timeline dates for NOA1s on here will make you fret that yours is taking longer than usual... it's not really, it's just that people mostly don't get them until several days after the official NOA1 date.

Fingers crossed it arrives in the next couple of days, though - always good to know SOMETHING is happening. And then you can get on with the daily online status-checking. Which is a novelty for about, ooh, five minutes. :)

2005 - We met

2006 - Filed I-129F

2007 - K-1 issued, moved to US, completed AOS (a busy year, immigration-wise)

2009 - Conditions lifted

2010 - Will be naturalising. Buh-bye, USCIS! smile.png

my goodness! if I'm obsessing about things like this so early on---JUST YOU ALL WAIT TILL THE NEXT ROUNDS!! MOUAAAA HA HA HA HA!

Can't wait until I'm locked out of the online system for the first time--then I will know I have finally made it as a real K1 visa waiter!!!

thanks guys--just nerve racking when you spend so much time putting something together and finally have it sent and all you want is a tiny bit of relief to know things are moving in the right direction. it doesn't help to read other timelines of people who sent theirs in 2 days before us and already have the check cashed, the case number and have been able to repeatedly check the nonstatus of their case online a billion times already--lol lol

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh--if we aren't nuts to start off with-we will be in the end :bonk::jest:
