While I agree that not everyone who is a RSO would pose a threat to anyone regardless of the country it would seem that 'most' ARE! The whole point of someone being a RSO is the nature of the crime that they were charged 'guilty' with. Most (I've seen many statistics) people who fall under this are indeed a threat to children, teenagers, adults, pretty much anyone! I don't like to judge people but sexual crimes are some of the worst ones a person can commit but I certainly understand what your trying to say. We all pay for the things we do but some pay more than others but that's the world we live in.
One more thing, a person being 'trapped in the United States' will NEVER be a bad thing in my opinion. Look at all the people who are trying to get in and live here and I bet most of them really wouldn't have a problem if they couldn't ever leave!

You sent it on June 19th? Well, from what I see its only been 4 business days (Don't count weekend days) It can take a week or even a month but normally it is a week or 2. Just be patient, this is the first step in a long journey. Patient is something you really 'lots' of!! This is not a quick process, and even if you pass one hurdle fairly quickly its seem to make up for it in another step. In this day of 'instant technology' we are spoiled with instant replies and stuff. I would suggest you start getting the next set of docs ready for after your NOA2 and then just try and keep your mind off of it for a while. In my situation, I tried to stay off of VJ as much as possible because it really caused me undo distress and worries, BUT, that is just me. Good luck in your journey!!!

I received my NOA2 approval last week so I know exactly where you are at. The next step is getting your case # from the NVC. They say to wait 2 weeks before calling but I started last week and will continue until I get my case #. I would also suggest getting all your proof of relationship docs, etc, etc together. Look up a specific forum for Turkey on VJ. I'm sure you can find a lot of help for your country.

Oh, by the way, CONGRATS!!!!! Wish you the best on your journey to 'full approval' and being together!!

I just checked my email and I got my NOA2 from the TSC!! I was a December filer and I'm just so shocked!! They sent the email at 11:15pm and I didn't receive a text like I did with the other notices. Just so excited and happy! Finally!!!!
I really hope all you who are waiting will hear good news soon. My NOA1 date was December 28th, 2012 so it was almost 6 months.

Hello! I just spent a good amount of time reading your post and everyones responses. My heart goes out to you and the problems your having with the denial on your petition. While I can't offer much advice moving forward (I'm awaiting my NOA2) I would just like to say that I wouldn't be too hard on people who are looking out for 'you'. While none of us know your fiancee or you we do understand the process your going through, at least all the waiting, etc. I know from personal experience that there are many scammers and dishonest people out there so someone making comments to that extent aren't trying to say that your fiancee is one its just that they are looking out for you! At least that's all I really got out of it. Just be smart and always look out for yourself!! Good luck!

I must say, after joining VJ two days ago, I'm just blown away at all the support and care that comes from everyone! I really can't see how I made it through the last 5 months so easily (it seems). I guess I really wasn't thinking about it as much as I am now. I hope the service centers will really start moving for us soon! Everyone take care and be strong!!
