&*^% not long now, is everyone stoked and ready?

I am ready, excited and scared, all at the same time. More excited than scared, but new situations and changes generally have that effect. Going boldly where many have been already, haha!

I think we might get an RFE, small mistake that I realized after we already sent the petition. But that's ok, we will see. I don't think an RFE is something to worry about. They are just giving you an extra chance to maybe clear up something they didn't understand or you didn't think to provide. Or maybe some paper got lost. The fact that you actually get a chance to clear this up and so soon is great. Having dealt with a fair amount of paperwork in my own country, I can tell you it's not uncommon here that they realize some paper is missing or that they lost something years later. Having to deal with that is a real nightmare.
It took me 3 months running around offices to get the info on how to pay my taxes as a freelancer here in Croatia. My local office didn't know and couldn't not be bothered for 3 months to pick up the phone and make a 3 minute phone call to a neighboring town to clear the issues up. And I'm still dealing with some stuff that particular person did not correct because in their own words "there is time". Nah, RFE, you get a list, you send that stuff in and it either works or it doesn't. No running around begging people to tell you what's wrong and what's missing. Can you tell I'm a bit salty with the local admin offices, haha.

Yes you’re absolutely right. Better provide it the earliest than look for it in the Embassy stage.

Not all of us have. I think in the excitement of some of the September filers that have gotten an interview or their combo card they forgot to update. It is kinda irritating though as it is hard to gauge your particular situation insofar as the dates.

Day #77 

[Sinead91 242]

95 days and counting! I am really hoping that we will start seeing some movement by the end of the month or early next month!

 

 

What is the estimated time from NOA2 to having your visa? Is it 3 months or more? Just as a ballpark figure.

The average waiting time for approval of the I-129F is five months. In some cases, the approval could arrive in as little as 3 months. In others, it could take longer. You can check the current I-129F petition processing times to see if there are any backlogs at the USCIS service center processing your petition.
