I got last night the AOS text and email telling me that my case has been accepted and routed to NBC......nice !!

So our K1 petition was approved in the states and we got our confirmation # from NVC and it is in transit to the Guayaquil consulate. We did the DS-160 form now and are compiling the docs to schedule the interview once the packet arrives.

Question - can my fiancé schedule and do the medical exam NOW or does she have to wait until the packet arrives and is "ready" in Guayquil? Any help appreciated!

I guess the number you received from NVC is something like GYQ######. You can go ahead and schedule the medical and do it.

To schedule for the interview you have to wait until you receive an email from the embassy in guayaquil telling you that they are ready to process with your k1 visa....

It takes about 5-7 business for the aplication to arrive at Guayaquil

Good Luck

Finally my fiancee and her kids are here with me in the US. What a great feeling !!!!

Traveling to pick up my fiancee and her kids......We all should back to USA on Monday June 13......I am already in Panama....(Layover).

Finally we will together after a long ride..........

Good luck to the rest of people......

I know a fair amount of you have your NVC numbers now. When do you recommend starting to call? Is that how you find out the nvc received date? any tips?

it will take about 3 weeks to get a number from NVC.....based on my experience

Hey guys! Glad things are moving along for everyone finally!!

I know NVC has to say it will take up to 6 weeks for them to receive our case...I'm just wondering if it's actually taken anyone that long?? I'm hoping they receive ours sooner than that lol..

It takes about 3 weeks from NOA2 received date........in order from them to have the case # for you

APPROVED!!!!!!!

Excellent news.....congratulations.....

Nice finally their visas are in their hands.....

If everything goes well they will be here on June 13.....

Good luck to all of you

Well, after exactly 111 days and thanks God, I am happy to update that our case has been approved as of yesterday May 31th!!! I just called my fiancée with the most awaited news and she is ecstatic, poor thing broke up crying. OMG what a good feeling!

I like to remind everyone else also waiting, yours approvals will come, remain positive and it will happen soon, never, never,never lose hope.

Excellent news.....now the rest will be quicker....

So my lawyer now says I must pay a fee for the rfe additional documents ..pathetic we've paid over 2000$ already

Sorry to hear that....I was lucky then...paid a laywer $950 and everything we to just fine and the visa was approved last week...no RFE

They got the papers today and his status has changed as the same as mine SO Approved!!!

Excellent news Georgia......

In my case their visa finally arrived at their city....my fiancée is going to pick the visa up this afternoon

the visa is on its way to my fiancée. Should be there Wednesday.....very happy !

WOOHOO!!!! NOA-2 TEXT TONIGHT AND I-129F K1 VISA APP APPROVED FROM CALIFORNIA!!!! I'm so ecstatic!!!!

Now it's off to NVC!!!! Anybody have any recent reference from their visa as to how long that process is from California to NVC down to the Guayaquil Consulate? We'll knock out the packet in Ecuador once they receive it in Guayaquil. No sooner, right?

Hey David.....My fiancee in Ecuador got her visa approved last friday......

It will take 3 weeks before you can get a case number from NVC and then another week or so to arrive to Guayaquil.

You can go ahead now and start getting the documents they requested on the packet so when you visa arrives to Ecuador you already have everything ready.

Once you get your NVC case number which start with GYQ######## in about 3 weeks......I will go ahead and make a medical exam appointment since they will need that number.

Once the visa is in Guayaquil you will receive an email saying that they are ready for it and the instructions in how to make an online appointment

Any question feel free to ask

Any February filers already with their fiancee? We have a good chance of getting that this weekend! Hope to post pictures.

For those still hung up in the process, don't lose hope...everything starts moving faster once you get I-129F approval.

Mi fiancee and her 2 kids is planning to come to the USA on June 13........we just waiting for their visa to arrive to the DHL office.

Interview scheduled

New apartment, new car, life is changing quickly! Hope we can learn from the others here and inspire successful folks with a similar journey.

Good Luck same here.....interview set for May 20,2016.....

Oh yes!...

How far are people??

Who is waiting for NOA2?

Who is waiting for NVC?

Who is waiting for their embassy to get back?

And who is waiting for the interview?

Seems that there are people waiting for it all, would be nice to hear how far people have gotten so far?

Booked medical exam on 5/16.....

Waiting for the embassy to give me the OKAY to book the interview.....

??

What I meant was.......that I would like to plan ahead of time , but I cannot make any plans yet until I know my fiancee gets her visa approved the day of the interview which really sucks since I need to look for a bigger apartment, etc

By the way haven't you received the hard copy yet??

I guess......we can't plan anything until we know if his/her visa gets approved........

Received my noa2 approval text on Friday 04/08 and today I received the noa2 hard copy....that was fast !

Just got the hard copy of our RFE today. They need the "Beneficiary's Intent To Marry You in the United States"

Now my question is... Does she need to write this up and send me the signed copy or is it sufficient to write one up, sign it and scan me a copy to print? I want to fedex this ASAP and waiting 3-4 days for DHL to deliver the document to me is time lost at this point. The evidence they state that is acceptable is a statement of intent to marry (easy enough) wedding preparations (a little harder considering we have no idea when this will all be approved) or other evidence that clearly establishes her intent to marry (somewhat vague) Facebook status change/posts? Engagement ring pics? Video of her making the statement burned to disk? lol I don't want to chance anything but I also don't want to waste any time whatsoever.

Thanks!!

This is what we wrote on a letter.......( see attachment). The signature I think needs to be a WET signature (Original) but not sure. I did send the letter with a wet signature anyways ........

APPROVED ....yes yes yes yes !
