Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between February 16, 2014 and February 22, 2014*.

Come on, CSC

No, no, no. I-864ez is only used when the petitioner can qualify on income alone. It is not used for co-sponsors. See "Who May Use Form I-864EZ?" http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-864ezinstr.pdf

As i've seen on the site, I1864ez is used for the co sponsor and I 1864 for the petitioner. I'll bring my diploma and transcript of records as proof of my educational background. Better be prepared. Thank you so much for the help.

I-134 affidavit of support and supporting documents.

We received our NOA1 thru the texas center on Jan 22nd, hoping we are lucky and get the NOA2 soon, I'm visiting my fiancé in 2 weeks is there anything he will eventually need from me to sign? I'm bringing a bunch of pictures and plane tickets as more evidence but was wondering if there was something else he needed my signature for so that way instead of him mailing it to me can just get it done now. A BIG CONGRATS to those that have received their NOA2!

Congrats! (And yes, I might be a tiny bit jealous!)

Congrats to new approvals!

Just left the American Consulate in Juarez, we were approved!

CONGRATS!!

How did she end up seeing a mastologist? I don't think that's anywhere near being part of the standard exam.

We had a friend of ours go through the K-1 process last year, and they did that exact thing. They officially got married in a small civil ceremony as soon as her fiance got here on the K-1 and were able to apply for the AOS. Then, they had a traditional wedding for family and friends several months later. In fact, that's what my fiancee and I are planning on doing as well.

Good luck!

Congrats! Hopefully the rest of us will be approved soon as well

Congrats guys!

I'm sorry you're having a hard time. Hang in there, it can take a while to find a job. Have you considered doing an unpaid internship or volunteering so you can at least get a local reference?

Heh, I'm getting a visit in March as well

About the name change - it varies state to state, some will let you change your middle name and some won't. It might be worth to take that into consideration when picking where you'll get married. You could also get it changed via a court order, but from what I've researched, most counties require you to be a resident for a year first. Another option is to get your middle name changed in Canada, but I don't know how that would impact your visa application.

So, you're saying if she doesn't want to be a housewife she must be planning on leaving him?

Nope, but you might need vaccination records to get them enrolled in school

It won't matter, you just need to say which state you plan to get married in in you letters of intent. Immigration is a federal issue, so Florida won't get a say in it. My fiancee lives in OH, so we're in the same situation.

Congrats Fred and Tonton!

She could always volunteer.

Are they still married? You can probably represent it as household savings, or she can add his name to the account.

They put our case # in the system two days after we got the text message. I think the noa1 email says to give it until you get the paper noa1.

It can take up to 30 days. You won't need the noa1 for anything later, so I wouldn't stress about it.

Got acceptance email on the 13th but no noa1 in the mail yet. What is taking so long ??

Can I email or call to request the hard copy ?

Congrats!

Good catch. Domestic flights usually allow fewer checked bags, so he will probably have to pay for any additional bags he has, unless you can arrange something with the airline. I'd at least ask about it, especially if the airline is an affiliate of the original airline. In the end it might be cheaper to try to rebook the original ticket.

You've been given some really good info - but here is a step that has not been included:

Your fiance will get off the plane in JFK. First step will be immigration, where he will turn in his packet. Then he will go to baggage claim and pick up his luggage. Then he will have to clear customs (really be sure he knows what can be brought into the country - find the "Know Before You Go" booklet that Customs puts out).

After he clears customs, he will have to "re-check" his luggage. If you have booked him on one ticket, and the two airlines are affiliates, then his luggage will be checked through all the way to Charlotte - so he only has to find the desk where they re-route his bags to Charlotte. It's usually just outside the customs desk. It was good advice to look at a map of whatever terminal his Ghana flight arrives at.

If the two airlines are NOT in cahoots (I mean, affliliates!), his luggage will only be checked to JFK. He will have to find the check-in desk for his JFK-CLT flight and have his bagged checked from JFK to CLT.

As long as he has his passport and boarding pass, that's all he'll need to board his flight to Charlotte. Most likely he will be changing terminals, which means he'll have to go through security again.

Best of luck to you and yours!
