For the 1 yr time limit is that 1 yr to file the follow to join paperwork or do the kids need to be actually issued a visa by the 1 yr deadline? I'm in the process of bringing my husband's children. His visa was issued 7/25/13, I mailed the follow to join paperwork 5/5/14.

We received our welcome to the US letter today and gc should be here within a few weeks, whoo hoo!!!! Glad we didn't have to wait 6 months

We received a notice for potential interview waiver last week. It says it can take up to 6 months to receive gc. My hubby found a job so no complaints here life is good

Hubby got his combo card yesterday yeah!!

Happy thanksgiving yall.Am leaving for a month vacation tomorrow :-) yaayyy,with just my approval.I will DHL my AP card.Wish me luck guyz

woop woop woop my hubby's card is in production too!!!!! What a GREAT Thanksgiving wepaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Got it! Thanks! I have the passport, and marriage certificate, together with the biometrics appointment letter ready in my folder .

Kumi and Drake my hubby had his biometrics at the USCIS in KC on Tuesday (10/29). It was easy we were in/out in 15 minutes. Sounds like you have everything you need.

I received the biometrics appt letter in the mail today whoop whoop!!! That was fast

Oh and the appt is on 10/29

and even if they questioned it, you say well in case you missed it the Gov't was shut down. That's why.

RIGHT!!!! LOL

Hello another October filer here

9/25/13 - AOS package mailed (EAD, AP included)

10/6/13 - Email from USCIS package received

10/9/13 - Hard copies received

I didn't know the National Benefits Center is right here in Lee's Summit, MO (I live in Kansas City, MO). . . to bad that won't make my case go faster. I'll be waiting patiently for my biometrics appt letter.

I ran into the same issue. I live in Missouri which requires a social security number so I went to Kansas and got married. I would suggest you try going to another state, I doubt they question where you got married. I applied for my husband social security card 8/26 (I think I went to early he arrived to the states 8/14), I received a letter 9/30 stating they needed to verify some paperwork and if everything is ok I'll receive his ssc in 4 weeks, but now I'm wondering with the shutdown if that will be even longer.

Don't feel bad Dee n Jay just looked online my case is in administrative processing too the waiting game continues. . .

I thought I read somewhere that K1 applicants do not have to pay this fee, does anyone know if that is correct?

Yeaaa! stay postive sweets its coming!!!!!

Mduenas I don't know the date the consulate received my packet. After NVC told me they sent it to the consulate on 5/21 I waited about a week and did like MrTee suggested and began calling the visa specialist for my interview date. On June 6th I received my interview date (7/17) from the visa specialist. Hope this helps and good luck.

My fiance received packet 4 and I also received a copy in the mail. I was kinda surprised I didn't expect to receive the packet also. It had the blue appt. letter and all the documents you need to bring. I didn't get a copy of the DS-156 but I am assuming that is because you need to go online and fill it out. My interview is 2 weeks from today

Congrats! I'm soooo ready to have my interview and get it over with

Ok so the being patient thing didnt work, I called yesterday and guess whattttttt I got my cita date wepaaaaaaaaaa!!!

I was a November filer, my case was complete May 21 I called today and no cita date yet. I'm trying to wait PATIENTLY LOL

Yeahhhhh! Congrats! Can't wait to read your interview story. I'm like Frances a nervous wreck without a cita date yet LOL Feels like I'm back in college and preparing for a MAJOR exam!!

What a great late Mother's Day gift, received my NOA2 in the mail yesterday! I read this board all the time but decided to create an account to let folks know how my timeline has progressed. Good luck to everyone.
