Ukrainian Couple

LOL

I used to fly for a commercial airline and frequently flew out of JFK before

9/11 and it was a nightmare then. I have known several people who has had their fiancé enter the US thru JFK. The lines were extremely long and they seemed to really get screened hard before granting entry, even with proper and abundant documentation.

What ever you do, when you fly back with her, do not re-enter the country at JFK or LaGuardia. I hear those two are nightmares for immigrants entering the country. My wife enter the US in Atlanta. They checked her documents and checked her out in the DHS system and she was on her way. No issues. 

The Dallas office is running almost two years behind schedule. My wife finally got her interview date a week and a half ago. We sent in her I-485 in July of 2017. Her interview is set for 25 January 2019. I know it is frustrating but just be patient. It will come very soon.

Thanks everyone for your information! I am happy to report that we have received our NOA2. Got the electronic notification on 08 Dec. 2016 and the official hard copy in the mail on 13 December 2016.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has any specific information regarding the amount of time that can be expected for NOA1 to NOA2 on the I-129F petitions. According to what I see, the average is 45-60 days, but the Service Center told me that it is 5 months. Whats the true story here? I filed and received the NOA1 on Oct. 25, 2016, and according to a few timelines I have seen on here, people who have filed during the same time have already received the NOA2.

Thanks for the info and help.
