Any recent K3 April Approvals??? I did a K3 NOA2 search for Sept 1st thru Sept 12th and following is the list I came up with(includes all the service centers):

1.... Lillian & Mark

2.... Yenys & Brian

3.... G & Golden

4.... Aileen & Robin

5.... Chen & Tim

6.... Blima & JC

7.... K & D

The wait just keeps on getting longer and longer...Someone said this in one of the other threads that.. the current slowdown at USICS is probably one of the worst, if not the worst, that filers have ever gone thru.. and if thats not painful enough.. it looks like, recently, the transfer time to NVC has also increased a great deal... hmmm...

Anyhow, good luck to all who are waiting and who got approved too... :thumbs:

Thank you once again :)

So even though I have already sent out most of this paperwork ex: G325's ,Marriage cert,photos when I applied for I-130 it is still needed to be mailed with I-129f ? That is where I was confused.

The process and directions are very confusing at first. There is some repetiton of forms. In the future you will need to send a copy of everything to your spouse for his/her interview at the Embassy/Consulate. Another set of pictures and G325as will needed when applying for AOS.

Oh thank you so very much for all of your help and explanation.I appreciate it, you've been great support

I guess now all we do is wait , wait and wait some more.

I will get everything ready so as soon as I get my NOA I can mail in I-129f right away

THANKS ONCE AGAIN and Good luck to you :)

This process is like putting your money into a vending machine and watching your food get stuck. :rolleyes::jest:

sadly, kicking the vending machine doesn't really help, no?

haha, too bad you can't save the G-325a after you fill it up

that really pissed me off :(

and b*tch and rant and wait and b*tch and rant and wait some more

not necessarily in that order...

Hi urge, do not worry, everything will be fine, you will be approved soon.

if you have waited for so many days now that the time is closer you have to hang there but l know by my own experince that this is very hard. Be positive.
