Nah it happens I just also checked sept 1 and firmly can say that it is not a September case but someone again putting the date wrong.

 

most likely an August 8 case instead.

 

i really hate that app...

There has to be a better app lol

I am thinking that last week of February to March we will see something (little but something)

 

but remember im a positive person 😂 Don't throw stones at me later for lying.

 

I'm happy and sad to say at the same time august seems more focused right now; had 430 approvals (not even the movement but approvals) in the first 2 weeks, and also a lot of only mail approvals.

Oh look a September!

I hope so. I'm with my fiance now and it sucks i have to leave in a couple of weeks so we will be apart again. 

I am away from my fiance now till the end of March. It's so tough! Hopefully it's April or may. I'll be out there till May 30th it would be nice to be fun there for his interview!

Im only going off one of my older friends who retired f

 

Am am the sponsor,  I do know in the past when I have cashed out one of my retirement plans. I received an annual tax notice of it being taxable income. Of course it was double taxation because of my age. 

Oh I will have him grab all the information then from his tax guy. I'm sure my grandfather keeps everything but gest get it off his guy! Ty guys! I know this is far in advance but I'm keeping hope that Mr. BEAN takes on all November filers lol

Now that I can't answer... did you try searching the forum cause I'm sure I saw this question quite a few times.

I will take a look through out the forums!

Wouldn't her grandfather get a yearly tax statement from whomever is issuing his monthly annuity payments? If so I'm thinking his monthly retirement would be considered taxable income and he would could go online for free at IRS.gov and print out his annual tax transcripts if he has been filing taxes still in the last few years. Just a thought I am no tax expert but I do know you can print a copy of your annual wages and tax transcript for each yr on IRS.gov after your taxes have been finalized each yr.

I think you might be right. I'll check the forums and ask around some more. Maybe his tax guy will know.

I don't think you really need to. U.K. Concentrates on the co-sponsor. But still fill out a i-134 even if you don't meet the requirements (you can add the transcript if you like just as a precaution) because even though normally U.K. Doesn't ask for the sponsor who won't be providing, somebody actually got stuck the other day because of it.

Thank you! I'll fill it out just in case. You never know! Ok another question bc the lawyer we asked didn't help at all. My grandfather  is retired, he makes plenty on retirement a year but what does he need paperwork wise  if he is retired he obviously doesn't get W2s

The lies oh the lies they tell.

 

they have no clue so they just talk what comes to their mind to shut the person up! Beleive me it's ridiculous!

 

dont worry about the work place change by the way just state it in the i-134 when giving it at the interview.

 

those petitions are signed with a date, meaning they were correct on that date. That's all it's needed.

Ty! Quick question, I am a college student and took the year off last year to concentrate on finishing my degree and of course visiting my fiance. I have a cosponsor (grandfather) should I prove I am a college student(give my transcript to fiance for interview with the affidavit of support I fill out)?

38 minutes ago, Naes said:

That person knows nothing. (And yes uscis tier 1 and even some tier 2 knows nothing we saw it a lot!)

 

i-134 is not required to send with the initial application.

 

 

We don't! Believe me we don't.. 

That's what I thought! I was like wait a second!

So I called in yesterday after this and asked a couple of questions, because like so many of us I received the update text. Outside of update question, my primary call was because I change divisions within my company so I wanted to clarify I was still working for the same company but just in a different division.  Anyway, whether our files are being touched or not I do know the rep I spoke to told me we would probably get a RFE for I-134 affidavit of support since we didnt send it in with our intial application. She would neither confirm or deny if the file had been touched or give estimated time lines. She only said everything looks good so far other than the probable request for the I-134 and to wait until we get official notice if we need to send it or not.

I thought we didn't do that till the interview? Well that's an easy fix. I'll get mine all ready to send out!

Nope it's just the app going crazy not uscis.

Aww got my hopes up haha

Hi! So I am using the Uscis App for androids. It just randomly sent me an update for case (Noa1 Nov 22nd). Course it looks actually like the the original lol. Is it a glitch or does that mean someone is looking at the case? My heart skipped a beat when I saw it updated haha.

Ok, I will check that too. But I wouldn't put both of them in one crate. My two just tolerate each other but they are not really in love. Plus I read it is recommended that they have their own crate.

I was thinking separate crates but they get a long really well and hate being separated plus the airline said it might help de-tress them a little.

I see. I will find a way.

Yea we found British airways could fly our cats for $550 that includes everything like the crate and such we are sticking them together but hopefully calming spray will help them relax. I was thinking of using the calming collars but idk how well they work. Has anyone used them?

Yes congrats!! Maybe there is hope for us all!! I hate being so far away from my fiancé, especially since the I am taking the cats back with me the next time I visit. He will be all alone and feels it is going to weird with out them lol

 I echo this sentiment. Getting through these days is the hardest challenge of my life 😩

I agree! I have like zero patience haha

Sorry never got to finish that last message, I know we are all antsy to know an exact date! Crossing fingers and toes for everyone here  as well as myself! That we get the Noa 2 by June! 

My fiance (from UK) and I are hoping for the Noa 2 by the end of May(NOA1 Nov 22nd), I feel like it might be later lol. I and I am sure eveyone

@Fenrir my fiance is from England too!! Just got our Noa 1 on the 22nd of November! 

Well congrats to you both! I bet she didn't mind being woken up to hear amazing news like that! We will make sure we have way more information than we need just in case! You never know right lol. 

@Jrsg1989@Jrsg1989 yeah I kind of figured they would drug test but someone said nope it for STDs.  I was just surprised haha. Yeah we were trying to figure out if they would make him get his flu shot since it looks like maybe July he will be over there if we get approved. He wouldnt need one that time of year I hope. Are you excited for your next step?! 

@Jrsg1989 thank you! We are soo excited but being patient is not my strong suit lol. How was the physical in London? Someone said they do a blood test and urine test for gonorrhea and syphilis. I didn' realize that was still a huge problem now a days. Or are hey testing for like diabetes and stuff. 

Congratulations! My fiance and I just got out Noa1 he is from the UK as well!! How long was your processes? @jrsg1
