Wioombeen

I sent the email last night before I went to bed.. do you think this will cause a problem? I know it didn't on your part and have gotten your approval and now on it's way to the embassy in Manila..I talked to my wife to be and it hurts to hear her cry over the phone..and all you can say is the same thing over and over that we will get it soon.. but in the reality.. i have no clue how soon is soon.. i can't guarantee her when..

You will be ok. It is a legitimate complaint.

Thanks! I hope everyone gets smooth approvals and the rest of the journey!

Cassandra+Yuibi, would you mind if I ask for the name of the community on Mixi? I am new on Mixi, and couldn't find any communities about US visa....

JapanGuest,

Not at all. It's called "Darling wa America-jin Shorui-hen." Here's the link: c.mixi.jp/paperwork

You'll need an approval(!) before being able to see it, though. But fear not! Unlike CSC, it only takes up to two days to get approved!

Just type in such words as "konnyakusha (in kanji)" or "K1" in the search box to find out what other K-1 filers are up to.

Its sibling site, "Darling wa America-jin," covers more general topics ranging from cultural differences to which souvenirs to bring to the U.S., which I believe make the transition much easier.

I hope you'll find this helpful!

So I called USCIS yesterday using the RFE trick, however this time I proceeded as though I didn't have my receipt number. This led me to a different call center than CSC. The first person I spoke to had to be new, but after a few minutes of run around he agreed to escalate my call. I was excited at the prospects, but as usual I was dissapointed with the results, though I did find it more useful than talking to that one woman at CSC. Anyway, I kept waiting for the 'double touch' as a result of my call. I never saw it change to 8/2 but when I checked this AM it said 8/3. I'm cautiously optimistic yet scared to be hopeful that maybe our case was finally assigned.

Also, I said I'd report back on my NVC email, after one week I've gotten no reply.

Come on Super NOA2 Friday...no whammy no whammy no whammy!

APPROVED!!!

After the touch I had to call. I got a cool guy at CSC and I simply asked, "My case was touched and I want to know if I've been assigned or better yet approved?" Almost immediately he congratulated me and told me I had been approved yesterday. I called my girl right away and we are both ecstatic of course. It's been a tough last month on us, it's nice to finally be through this phase. With the consistency they've shown the past couple of weeks, it should be no time until this thread becomes all about NVC and interviews. I'm confident the rest of our April family will follow shortly.

BTW, he told me they sent the notice yesterday but my case still shows as pending online...

Thank you BrianElla. I would be suprised if you haven't already been approved unless those touches are a result of calls. If you haven't done so, I'd suggest the RFE trick. It's described somewhere around page 45 on this thread. Good luck!

Hey congratulations... It seems like things are moving quite well this week....

We got touched on 08/01 and 08/02. I called Mel to let her know about it. Her internet is down and she's working away from home. She's a Peace Corps Volunteer in St. Vincent. She said that she thinks that I should call to find out about the progress of our case. I am kinda skeptical about that bcos I suspect that they may bring up some privacy issues regardless of the fact that I'm the beneficiary. Do you guys think that it's worth it for me to call CSC, or will I just be wasting my time?

Thanks for the congrats. My suggestion is absolutely to call. You are the beneficiary and therefore have the right to do so, hopefully you will also be informed that you are approved. Good luck!
