They are merely requesting we send another document.
We sent the divorce papers, but not the certificate. They needed both. 
So that is an easy request to answer!

Fingers crossed you'll be approved soon.

We got approved on my birthday!

Not even sure if I am even dreaming right now or not. I just received an update today! Seems a bit fast? It usually sits for a year at California Service Center until NOA2 is received?

No it's not a dream. Congrats!

 

I got mine approved on Tuesday 23.59. 

 

So my update is:

 

I-129F sent: 11.30.2023

I-129F received: 12.01.2023

I-129F noticed (NOA1): 12.05.2023

I-129F approved: (NOA2): 04.16.2024

Case Sent to NVC: 04.17.2024

 

I apologize, I thought it was a dream they were already processing our visa's and was dismayed by my RFE. 
I forgot to take the time to congratulate you all!! 

This is very exciting and I am extremely excited for you.
I am looking forward to hearing more good things from your journey soon!

Congratulations

We sent ours in on December 4th, was received on the 31st of January and got NOA1 on the 7th of February!

No clue why the gap is that big for us tbh

That explains the delay. Plus there's a backlog bc of the March Cases. Better FedEx or UPS or at least Express if USPS.

 

You actually count as February 24 not Dec 23. But USCIS works so fast now, so there's a chance you will hear back in June. 🤞

June is still pretty fast!! I was shocked to see December cases being accepted already, we were guessing it to be end of the year!

God 4 years, that sounds so rough!! We're celebrating our 2 year anniversary tomorrow, so we're not that long thankfully. I was planning a 2 month trip to see him in October, but it's looking like that could potentially be a final move date too?? I don't know, I'm going crazy haha

Yea our anniversary is May 5th. The lockdown made things difficult for us. But it also made our RS stronger. My fiancé also wanted to visit me in April but then they speeded up the process and we decided to wait so we can hopefully move together this summer.

 

Yea there's a good chance it'll be a final move date for you.

I also dated long distance in Covid, it did not last very long haha, those must've been trying times!! I'm so happy for you that it's speeding up!

I wasn't expecting to be that long in a LDR but if it's the right person you will make it work 😉
