US Immigration from Vietnam

I'm helping my brother in law apply to bring his fianc here. It's been 12 years since I used this guide to bring my fianc (now wife)here using a K1 Fianc visa.

I have some questions that I hope someone here can assist me with. Let me apologize up front for not staying up to date in what is needed with this application. Can anyone tell me if the following things are still needed to send in with the I-129F packet?

G-325A Form

G-1145 Form

My memory definitely is slipping, I could have sworn I sent in an I-864 Affidavit of support along with tax documents, and pay stubs at the time I sent in my I-129F form, can someone tell me at what step of this process all of that is needed as well? Is that something that gets sent to your Fianc and they take it to the interview?

Thanks again for any help!

Checking my I130 petition today on the USCIS site. Case Status page says 4 weeks until completion. Then checked the Documents tab and found the I130 approval letter. Point: Always check the document tab when checking the status.

Hi, I have an NOA2/I-129F approval on April 18, 2024 but I plan to visit my Fiancee in September to show up for the K-1 Visa Interview at the Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Consulate in September. Because the NOA2 will have expired by then, how likely it is to get the NOA2 extended by the consulate officers there? Is it based on luck or do they periodically extend the notice if we send in a request before it expires? Also, how does one go about doing this?

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I couldn't find a topic for Feb 2024 I130 filers for parents so I started this one where Feb 2024 filers can share our timeline/experience. Below is my timeline:

Feb 10, 2024: Filed Online for my Mother (IOE processing center)

Feb 12, 2024: Case status changed to "Case is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS", the estimated time was 8 weeks.

Apr 09, 2024: myProgress tab changed "Case Taking longer to process ..."

May 02, 2024: myProgress tab changed to "Estimated Time Until Decision: 4 Weeks"

...

Thanks,

And how long can petitions usually get stuck at the NVC for.
