lol...I'm sorry.... I don't mention it much because I don't wanna get attacked by hostile VJers. Still, I will be glad when he comes home. That's about as much of a 'long-distance' relationship as I can handle. I truly admire y'all.

He is higher than a kite too! He was so excited. He was shaking signing the forms. I'm praying that we receive the packet quickly with the appt letter (I printed all the forms from the website already so we don't need those....) so that I can avoid the new fees. It will be cutting it close, and of course NVC has to cooperate, but we might be able to pull it off. Any and all prayers appreciated!

Doesn't it say somewhere on this site that when you send a copy of the I-129F packet you originally sent to start the application process to your beneficiary, you also have to include a copy of the NOA2? I could be wrong but I swear I read that somewhere and that your beneficiary will need it at some point...

You won't need the NOA2 until AOS.

What to send to your fiance(e) once the I-129F is approved (Receive NOA2): 1. A copy of the entire I-129f package (that you made when you sent the petition in) and a copy of information that you sent back due to an RFE (if you received one).

2. Send all originals of the documentary proof that you submitted for the I-129F to your fiance(e) for their interview at the embassy.

3. Send an original letter affirming your desire to marry your fiance(e) and your continued support of the K-1 Visa. Sign and date the form. This will be similar to the letter you provided with the I-129F, but dated much closer to the interview (it will have most likely been several months since you submitted your I-129F).

4. I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is notarized (by a US Notary Public), with all required supporting evidence. Begin collecting the required information ahead of time, as it can often take several weeks to collect it all.

5. You will likely need at a minimum (for the above form) two to three of your most recent pay stubs and a signed letter from your employer listing you job title, start date, your salary, and the status (full-time) of your position. Begin collecting these ASAP after your NOA2 arrives. You will also probably want to include other evidence such as your banking information and other assets as required by the I-134. Specifically you will need at least 2 of the 4 options mentioned in Section II-Supporting Evidence of the I-134. See this FAQ for more tips and ueful information on the Affidavit of Support Form.

6. A copy of the NOA2 that you received in the mail.

7. Proof of your ongoing relationship. This needs to be taken to the interview! Include photos, travel documents, emails, etc from between the time you filed and present (NOA1 date-now).

What about #6???

Although I don't want to get my hopes up too much, because we filed at TSC (and then sent to CSC) on March 17th, I'm hoping we're going to hear something back very soon.

I am normally ok with waiting for things, but this is killing me! I almost died when we got our first touch, it was nice to know someone had looked at it!

Fingers crossed!

Check out my timeline, we have almost the same dates. Try calling VCS, they might already have your approved I-129. If you have read over this thread you can see that many of us were approved even though we never got our NOA2. Don't trust the info on the USCIS online tracking website. Good luck!

As the UKC, am I able to call up CSC and get an update, or does the USC have to do this since she is the petitioner?

I can call a toll free number, it's just not free. The only number I have found is for the NSCS. Is that who I need to call?
