Just wanted to let you guys know that after being in AP since May 21, we were requested to send in his passport on July 22, exactly two months later, sent in the passport about a week later, and just checked the website today and they have issued our visa, WOOHOO!!!!
Such a mixture of emotions, I cant even describe it. Dont loose hope or get utterly upset if you get or were put in AP. Sometimes, as in our case, they dont really have a good reason to put you on AP, they might be backed up with background checks that they didnt get to yours or arent completely finished, or I dont know were ordered not to issue anything that particular day or week, who knows. just DONT LOOSE HOPE!
Good luck to everyone who is still going through this process. We are done with one journey, about to step into the next, this one will be much easier to conquer as we will be together hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder through everything without needing technology to connect us.
I hope you all get great news as soon as possible and get back to life, as I havent really had a life and wont till he gets here
well, anywho, good luck

Approval took 6 months while based on my status (green card holder) and priority date (1/15/2013), it was supposed to take 2 years. Couldn't be more happier!

Congratulations !!!

Congratulations !!!

I am 21 years older than my husband and age was not an issue

On August 1, 2013, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.







Thank you Lord Jesus! We are one step closer!



Now what? Im pregnant with twins and by the time we get the interview ill probably be on maternity leave and wont be able to travel to DR for the interview is that going to be a problem? What steps should I take from now on? Any help and guideance is appreciated.

The answer to your actual question will not be helpful to you. In an immigrant visa case, you do not simply "wait" for NVC to complete your case. How long it will take will depend on how quickly and efficiently you prepare and do your part. You will need to provide 5 separate responses to NVC. If you use the shortcuts efficiently, you can complete this in about six weeks. If you drag your feet, it can take a couple years.

congradualtions mounir. hope this is that last time to do this. will your wife go into the interview with you this time? she is now qualified. I pray for you too and admire your strength. Bless you.

It has been quite a long road. I am happy to report that our visa was approved. I flew to Manila to be with Michelle during the interview. We had our embassy interview on Monday and it went well. We were out of the embassy by 11:00 AM. We were very over prepared because they never asked for any photos, chat logs, proof of visits...NOTHING. However it was a bit scary when the Consular Officer told me to go sit down in the waiting area while he talked to Michelle alone. 5 minutes later, she came back with a big smile on her face!
Sorry that our case messes up the average time from NOA2 to Approval :-( We had to go through the 8 month DOT process after a positive sputum test. Thank God that is over, Michelle is well, and we are flying to California the end of next week.
Michelle and Jeff

are VERY VERY happy to announce that...WEGOT OUR VISA!!!!!! My GOSH, what a feeling!!!! After 3 1/2 years of being apart, it all just feels surreal..I think i'm still in shock! Our families laughing and crying and congratulating us was just the icing on the cake..ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I have so much energy now, i don't know what to do with myself hahahhaahah I just want to take the time to thank you ALL for contributing such a wealth of information to us and some have even became very dear friends (some old, some new) throughout the whole process. We couldn't have done it without you all!! Thank you, thank you! Hoping to get him here in a couple of weeks...Now..I'm going to go spend some of this energy doing my happy dance! Woot!

My husband finally got his foot in the door working in IT. He took a 6 month contract(for very low pay) working at a multinational company, with it;s home base here were we live. When the contract is up there is a good chance they will hire him for a permanent position. In the mean time he will continue to work at his Walmart job because it pays well. I will say that in addition to my husband's degree, he obtained certification in CCNA, CCNP and CompTIA A+ before he arrived in the US, this helped him a lot. At the end of the contract, even if he isn't hired, at least he will have 6 months experience in the US, that is worth it's weight in gold.
Be patient, my husband has been here almost a year and applied to literally thousands of jobs before he was given this opportunity.

first of all I Just want to thank The Lord Almighty and everyone here on visa journey for their help. I had my interview today and i was approved. Pray , pray, pray. May God that did my also do yours for you amen. Rebuke any denial.

hi vj's just want to share our happiness,,, finally after the long journey,.... my fiance finally got his visa... he'll fly soon to be with me... thanks for the prayers and for the encouraging words... God bless to all and good luck,,,

Get divorced and once the divorce decree is ready just file form I-751 waiver based in bonafide marriage.

You don't extend your visa nor do you get a 10 year visa. You file to remove conditions in order to obtain a 10 year green card.
If you get divorced prior to the time that you file to remove conditions and you can show that you entered into the marriage in good faith, then you can file to remove conditions on your own.

I am so happy for you. We got a NOIR and had to appeal and we won. The problem is when our case got back to Pakistan they put us in AP and we have been waiting 12 months for another interview. Your embassy is different from Pakistan and I'm sure you will have your interview soon.

Mabrouk khoya, bonne chance.

That's awesome Mounir, sending prayers and good thoughts your way!

Congratulations!

Congrats!!! We got approved too this week and we are beyond on cloud nine!

Great advice! So many people come on here and say "OMG I have been waiting 7 months for NOA2 and I just got it and I have no idea what to do next!"
