I was looking for June 2018 Filer as well and came across yours. Mine was received on 06/06/2018, and checked my bank today to see that my check was on hold as of today 06/11/2018 and is going to be deducted any time soon, meaning to say that they have my application current on their system, I'm guessing. Just waiting for my bank to clear and post it. I saw that you're from Cherry Hill, NJ? I am from Cherry Hill as well. Hope to see notification today. Let's hope for the better and faster turn around time of our application.

Great news. Hope our waiting time isn't as long. I received my hard copy of my NOA1 on 6/9/18. So we are just waiting.  And yes, we are from the same area! Very exciting 😊

Hello,

 

We filed on June 9. Would like to find some souls to commiserate with))) I went through the K-1 process back in 2009 (Kiev) all the way through naturalization so I can also answer some questions as well. Unfortunately we divorced after six years due to family issues. It is life. So,  I am not new to the rodeo. I even remember T-Bone when he was a regular user))) 

 

Take Care,

 

B...

Not a newbie but lost my old info years ago) I have been through this process before --all the way through naturalization-- This site has always been a great help to me.

Welcome to the "June Crew". Did you find your submission to be more tedious this time around? As I've read throughout the filing process some changes had been made over time with filing as well as the waiting period.

Hi) My last 129f was approved in 44 days. I don't think it is going to happen this time)) I like the new 129f form. They combined some forms so you don't have to search around for them.  But, the core of the process is the same. The key is patience and maybe finding a hobby to pass the time)) So much of the actual visa process is Embassy dependent. Some can be very difficult at the interview stage. Some not so much. Good Luck!

Great. Atleast we have someone who knows more about the process. Was your previous K1 Visa Petition from Philippines too? My fiance and I are both Filipinos, and he's currently in the Philippines.
