    Changing petitioner's address while waiting for NOA2

    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Hi guys, I'd like to apologize in advance if this has been posted before.

    My fiance and I sent our K1 application in September 2012. At this point, it's been exactly 182 days from our NOA1. My fiance moved to a different place last sunday and today we tried to changed his address online but for some reason it wouldn't accept our case number so, he called USCIS customer service and they were nice and helpful. By the end of his conversation with the USCIS girl, she told him that in 15 days he'll get a document to confirm his new address.

    Now to my questions, is this document an RFE? How can possible affect us the fact that he changed his address (is it possible that it will cause delays to our process)? Our case is currently on VSC and well, it's been a good 6 months already (I know every case is different and there's people who've waited longer and we should be patient, etc), I'd hate to think it will take even longer to finish the first step! :dead: .

    I'd appreciate your answers and opinions, thank you.

    VSC or CSC

    VSC is faster at the moment. Around two months ahead of CSC but that can all change. I was disappointed to be assigned VSC in january because CSC were known to be the faster ones but thats all changed.

    Yup! When we got VSC I was so disappointed, but hey! things are looking good for us :) Hopefully CSC will go back to normal. Good luck everyone and hang in there, our approvals will come

    Unbelievably short Timelines

    Of course it sounds jealous, we do get jealous reading posts about people getting approved in 30, 20, 15 days! because this wait hurts so much. I get happy when I see petitions approved, it is great! but it is only human to feel jealous I think, because we wanna be with our loved ones so bad. It's so frustrating... and we go crazy thinking why not us, why can't we be the lucky ones next time... :(

    K1 the forever wait :(

    I know exactly how you feel... 4 months down for us here too... i hope it's only a couple more, because it really hurts being so far away... like some others have said, keep your mind busy, try different things to focus on and stay strong. I started working out to look good in my wedding dress at some point of this year lol! Vent all you want, we're going through the same, we understand. Hugs :)

    can i ask what city you're in? i was an english teacher for several years in portoviejo, and if you're somewhere close i might be able to help you out! i have some good friends at several private high schools (which don't pay as much as universities, but it's close!) and one of the universities. i know all of them are hiring, so if you're in the area let me know!

    I work in Portoviejo! Universidad San Gregorio ;(

    Thank you guys for your support, and for taking your time to read my rant :hugs:

    Hello vj fellows! The main reason for this post is well, to vent about all the things going through my head right now... alright, where to start... As many of you, I'm feeling sad for having the one I love so far away. I last visited him for new years and it really hurts not seeing him in the flesh every day... Then, I'm anxious because, as many of you again, our I129F forms were sent to what seems to be the slowest center of them all, frigging VSC!!! I see our estimated approval date go from late March to late April and it kills me knowing that this horrible waiting is less than half of all the hoops we have to go through just to prove that our love is real and be together and that's when it comes to my mind how many people have used illegal ways to go to America, making it hard for the people who probably never even in their wildest dreams would have thought they'd fall in love with someone from a different country, and now all they want is to be with them...

    And then comes what's bugging me the most... I've been working for a college here in Ecuador since April 2012. But it's almost the end of January and I still haven't seen my OCTOBER paycheck... When I got the job and saw it was good money I was so excited, because I know all this paperwork and fees are not cheap, and I wanted to save so my fiance wouldn't have to pay for it all. The first couple of months it was all good but, the school's been financially falling apart so quickly, to the point that well, we're almost 4 months behind on our paychecks. They owe me around $5000. I told my boss I'm quitting in 2 weeks, just to finish the semester and turn in all the grades of all the classes I've taught. He said that was the best thing to do. But when I asked when I was gonna see my money, he said "when the rest of us start seeing it". Meaning if whoever stays there gets their Oct check in March, I'll get mine by that time as well. I've applied for so many jobs, but keep getting rejected because saddly, here, if you're not friends with the "right people" your chances of getting a good job are very small.

    I know there are people with situations by far worse than mine, but going through this by myself, knowing that he's so far away and I won't get to see him probably until the interview date at the consulate is driving me crazy.

    So here I am, away from my fiance, going crazy waiting for the people of VSC to work on our case, and most likely unemployed soon, with nothing to keep my mind busy instead of going crazy counting the days until our approval.

    Ah! venting felt good!
