Eva&Gary

here's what we did on Saturday.

Congratulations Tina and Johan! Looked amazing!

I really think that someone needs to update the info regarding Dublin medicals on VJs embassy page. Haha. In most countries, you have to wait for the medical, but in Ireland you can definitely have the medical done any time, bearing the 1 year validity in mind. Either way, the process will still fly for you!

yes medical is on the 22nd.

Just got packet 3 this morning it's time to schedule the medical now.

NOA1 Feb 5th, RFE Aug 21st, NOA2 Approval Sep 23rd

Congrats!

well guys, i got a letter from my congressman's office today. uscis states that my case was flagged and needs additional background checks. they also said they have no idea when the background checks will be completed. they stated in the letter that this is a matter of national security...

this is hilarious and complete bs. i'm 24 years old with NO record. i've never been married and have no children. i'm a college graduate and am employed full-time. this is just ridiculous. becca and i have decided to explore our options of me going up to canada. she has a lot of opportunities up there and i can work from anywhere. this has been a huge waste of time.

Sorry to hear that! That is just crazy!! Hope you guys can figure out something! Best of luck

thanks still cant believe it, we are over the moon

JUST GOT APPROVED AFTER 196 DAYS!

FINALLY!!! IT TOOK 196 DAYS BUT WE JUST GOT APPROVED! CANT EVEN EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY I AM

Rich and I got married on Monday at City Hall! The weather was perfect, we went out to eat downtown by the river after. We're having our reception next year so for now we can focus on AOS and enjoy our new life together. Thank you to everyone on this site!!!

Lovely photo! Congrats!

Hi, thanks a lot for the positive comment! That means a lot. I am just nervous they lost my application or something, haha.

Thats exactly what I thought about our application thats why I was so happy for the rfe. Hope you get approved very soon!

What document did he send? I just sent the divorce certificate, I wonder if they want to see the entire decree......anyone know the answer?

it said: submit proof of the legal termination of the marriage.You submitted a copy of the decree nisi.This is not considered to be evidence of a final divorce decree for immigration purposes.Such proof would normally be a final (absolute) divorce decree, death certificate, etc. In order for the legal termination of a marriage to be considered valid for immigration purposes, it must have been registered with a civil authority.

Did you get your RFE in the mail yet or are you still waiting to see what it is? What do you think they need? Wishing you the best of luck.

Yes Gary got the letter today saying that the divorce document he sent in wasn't what they wanted so he has to try and get a 'more official' one.

I know its an RFE but I'm still happy that they didn't lose our petition

Best of luck for you too

We got an RFE on the 12th and the website still says initial review. our number was src1490165874.

Hey guys... Could you post if you're a February filer and haven't received NOA2? I'm curious to see who all is left. Please post your NOA1 date as well.

I am February 20.

February 27.

And no patience left! I found 22 petition not approved before/after ours. I seriously cant wait for the day when I dont have to check USCIS website anymore

VERY happy to report that Andre's Visa was issued today!!! 2 months and 1 day post interview and what seems like a million hoops to jump through! LOL We are SO happy!!!!

Congrats Abby!

Just woke up to say good morning to my fiance before he heads off for his medical....... and we got our NOA2!!!! People aren't joking about TSC moving. We were at 173 days, so just under 6 months. Everyone else has got to be coming very soon, so just hang in there!!!

Congrats!!

Congrats on the approvals!

I checked few (about100) receipt number around ours and lots of them were approved in the last few days..I really hope we get approved too very soon (tonight please) because I cant do this any longer

Best wishes to those who are still waiting. I sent my I129F on Feb 21 2014 and received my NOA1 on Feb 27 2014 from Texas Service Center. I just found out my petition has been approved on August 8 2014 this morning on USCIS website! I also submitted G-1145 so that I received NOA1 confirmations from both the email and the text message. But this time, there was no email nor text confirmation. I also checked the case statues on USCIS website in the evening on August 8, but there was no update on that day.

I have also datamined 1053 case numbers around my case number from USCIS website. Out of these cases, only 117 of them are for K1. Out of these 117, only 15 were approved as of 08/08/2014. In case anyone is interested in checking cases around Feb 27 2014, the numbers are:

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL YOU GUYS WHO GOT THEIR APPROVALS!!!! Trully happy for all of you!!!! Im still waiting NOA1 on February 25, How many of us still waiting????

we are still waiting too...hopefully for not too long now. NOA1 was on FEB 27!

Friends...I am THRILLED to tell you that at 12:31 AM, I received a text message that my case status had been updated. I checked the USCIS.gov website to find that our I129f fiancee petition has been approved!!!!!!!!! I cannot begin to tell you the joy I feel right now. I am crying, my fiancee is crying and our hearts are filled with joy. I certainly didn't expect a text message in the middle of the night, and am so happy that it came.

Our NOA1 was February 20, 2014. So I hope this encourages others and gives you some hope. I know how hard it has been waiting. Hang in their!

I feel like I must be the happiest man on the planet, and my hope and prayer for all of you is that your anxiety will soon end and you will feel the joy that Linn and I feel right now.

Congrats!!

OMG GUYS!!! My NOA1 is February 18th AND I JUST RECEIVED MY NOA2!!!! I'M CRYING, I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF, I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!

Congrats!!!!

I'm very happy to announce that on August 7th 2014 at 10:00 pm my dear sweetheart and I have received our NOA2 and I129F approval!!!!! So happy and wishing everyone else approvals very soon.

Congrats!!!

Definitely NOT the only one !!!

Hello everyone!

I just got to know that our I-129F was approved on August 5th, 2014 (yesterday) at California Service Center. 67 days since NOA1, no RFEs. YAAAY I'm SOOO happy!!!

Now we are starting to gather all the documents and stuff that I will need for the my interview. I plan on moving to the U.S. in October. I feel SO blessed that I will be able to spend my birthday and Christmas already with the love of my life.

Good luck to those who still wait for NOA2.

Gratulalok!!!

Good luck with the rest of your journey .

Evi

Yeah, my fiance is. We've gone through the visa process before with a J-1, so it's not entirely unfamiliar territory. I see you got your NOA1 around the same time as us, so hopefully we'll both hear something soon. Is your petition at TSC, too?

yes we are at TSC too.

It's the Texas service center. They are terribly slow. The good news is that once it leaves for Dublin, it goes much much quicker! Check out our timeline and you will see. For the time between packet 3 and 4, that was our delay. It zips by in Dublin!

We got married yesterday! We aren't telling people, but of course I have to share it here.

Congratulations Tina & Johan!!You must be over the moon. :)

guys! I am sooooooo happy! i just for the NOA2!! i think they are starting to process the Feb, so hang in there, its coming!!

btw, I sent a email to the head of all the service center expressing my concern about the imbalance between the centers, hope that help to have them pay more attention to TSC.

I am soo happy now, can someone tell me what should be my next step to make it faster? I will be preparing the paperwork, should I ask my fiance to call to make interview appointment?

Congrats! Finally a Feb filer!!! I know there are many January filers waiting but this is a good news for us right???? :)
