Hi,

There's someone here that have already asked for an NAO2 extension?

All I know is that you have to send an email to the embassy, telling them that the beneficiary needs to stay a little longer in their country before moving to US.

I also know that you don't need to give them an specif reason for an extension.

We got our NOA2 approval on March 23rd and I think I have until July 23rd to set up my interview.

 

Someone please help me...

 

Thanks a bunch.;)

It's not really a lot more to it. Most consulates allow extensions, and its normally processed automatically once the applicants arrives for his interview. It's always recommended to contact the consulate in advance to let them know, especially in case they for some reason will not allow it. An updated letter of intent to marry from the USC will usually be asked for at the interview. 

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

Hi Samires,

 

My fiancé and I asked for an NAO2 extension in 2015. After the expiration date, we sent an email to ImmigrationRio@state.gov explaining why we were requesting an extension (in my case, I was waiting for the waiver to be approved). Along with other documents, we sent this letter:

 

[Date]

 

From: [Petitioner's name].

Address:

Phone:

 

To: The American Consulate in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Av. Presidente Wilson, 147 Castelo

Rio de Janeiro, RJ - 20030-020

 

RE: [Beneficiary's name]

Address:

Phone:

Case Number: 

 

Dear Honorable American Consulate of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

 

My fiancée (fiancé) and I remain legally free to marry and continue to plan to marry after she (he) enters the United States.

 

Therefore, please be aware:

 

- My fiancée (fiancé) and I continue to be legally single and free to marry.

- My fiancée (fiancé) and I love each other and plan to marry after her (his) entrance to the United States.

 

I sincerely request that you extend the approval notice so that my fiancée (fiancé), [beneficiary's name] may receive the K-1 visa.

P.S: They extended our NAO2 from Nov. 2015 to Jun. 2016.

Hi Thais,

First of all, thanks a lot for comment on my post.

Do you know, if only the petitioner can send the request for the NOA2 extension? or I also can send the embassy an email?

 

The reason why we need an a extension, is because I'm still in the process to finish my school here in Brazil,and I don't know if it's reasonable enough for them to extend our petition.

 

Can you help me? :)

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Samires,

 

I think you can also send the email. Just make sure to include the letter signed by your fiancé and any other document that can help you to prove your situation. It is just my opinion, but your situation sounds reasonable to me.

 

Stay positive! I am sure everything will work out for you.
