We also received our NOA1 on December 12; and no answer yet.

I've noticed that some other couples here have managed to get their application transferred to the California center.

How is this done? Is the decision made in USCIS internally or is this something they will do if you bug them for a status update enough?

Congratulations!

I'm so so sorry that you have to go through this....

Unfortunately, my personal opinion is that things will only get worse, so cut ties and run while you can!

Perhaps he could get a job teaching one of the foreign languages he speaks...if he has a bachelor's degree.
There's tons of jobs between what he wants and minimum wage that he could get if he opened his mind a little.

He should also find a community of Moroccans (or North Africans) where you live that could help him network and connect him with work opportunities.

My sister's husband (came to America from Nigeria with only $20 in his pocket) did EVERYTHING (washed cars at a gas station, screened-in porches, freelance photography, etc) until he settled on a job at a car dealership. He's been working there for years now and has worked his way up to making $100k+ a year. Oh, and he doesn't have a degree of any kind! He's just a go-getter!

Welcome!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Congratulations on getting approved!

I know how you feel. We just filed K1 and now it's the waiting game.

Keep praying and stay close to each other and talk everyday!

My fiance and I just started our process in December as well. Best wishes to you two! ^^

Hi Everyone, just a post to say hello and introduce myself to the VJ community! A little on me: My name is Wendi and I'm from Florida; I met my Algerian fiance 2 years ago on a foreign language study site and we've been inseparable since. I visited him in Algeria last year and it was the best trip of my life! He was everything that I hoped he would be and his family and friends were amazingly kind and accepting. We started the K1 process in December and are praying that everything runs smoothly. Patience, faith, hope and most of all love is key in keeping this long-distance relationship going strong! Look forward to hearing from some of you on your personal stories and experiences. ^^
