Interview was yesterday.
 
They were quite friendly, and seemed to click well with my partner.
Asked a few standard questions, regarding to the application forms Infront of him, and just testing our knowledge about each other (like "when did we get married?").
 
Unfortunately, they did not tell us if we were approved. They said that if they need anything further that they will directly contact us, but he said he thinks he has everything already, and that they'll get our case reviewed asap.
He said to also expect a response, or the green card within the month.
 
Overall we felt like it went well?
They only asked for joint assets, photos, proof of a genuine relationship and etc.
 
I expected my nerves and anxiety to have ended by now but... Nope, almost feels worse because we didn't get a response (I know that it's not uncommon for this to happen, but... would have been nice I guess xD?)

Lease, health insurance, beneficiary of health insurance, 401k beneficiary, power of attorney, utility bills, wedding pictures, pictures after wedding till now, any vacation tickets, if it comes down to that then affidavit from a third party.
 
you don’t need ssn to be on lease or utility bills or any of these (not sure about power of attorney tho)

Hey everyone! New update here.. Had my interview today in the morning here in San Diego.. for some reason we weren’t really nervous, I think with everything prepared there is no reason for that. 
 
we had the interview with a really nice lady.. first she just checked my documents, birth certificate, passport and I94, and just went through the I485, checking with me my full name, date and city of birth, my husband full name and date of birth too, just following the application.. went to all the yes/no questions about terrorism and all that.. simple stuff, really normal, she was being nice nothing super serious or anything, super chill.. she asked if I had any joint assets that I wanted to submit and I just gave her all the documents we had together.. she didn’t even look at them, just attached to all the papers of our case.. she then asked us how we meet and we told her our story with the dates and everything.. she was taking notes of everything we said. She asked about our wedding, where was it and if family attended.. I wanted to show her the pictures I had but she didn’t even look.. at the end she asked my husband about his work and happened that she already worked at the same area before so they were super talking about that.. she was really friendly, laughing and everything. 
She said we were good and that she would recommend us to approval.. took a while filling stuff in the computer and putting all the stamps on the papers.. we had to sign the paper that says when we need to renew the green card and she gave us some advice to keep all the documents we have together and future stuff cuz to renew the green card will need to show all that again and everything else we gonna have from the next two years.. 
 
So I was really happy everything was smooth.. no strees needed.. 
And my case status already changed for card being produced.. she said I’ll receive it within two weeks! 

So... I just had my Biometrics appointment (29th October). Today I checked my current case's status, and it looks like it's changed from the "finger prints" message to "Case is ready to be scheduled for interview" from 30th October.
 
Nice to know that I'm being updated but gosh, didn't expect a quick change.
 
Now the long waiting game I suppose.. getting good at this....

So funnier enough, we filed our application around the same date as we filed our K1 fiance visa application last year - crazy how it's been a year since then! What a emotional crazy rollercoaster!
 
We received our NOA in the begining of October, so I'm assuming we're September filers as we filed the application in September?
 
It's nice to see some familiar faces here!
Good luck all!

This was something I'm pretty sure I overheard them ask another applicant about (I can't know for sure which doc they pointed to when they asked her, but I think it was the return), so I would bring the signed return just to be sure. But like I said, scanned signature is absolutely fine so you shouldn't have to print anything, just sign it, scan and send and you're good 

All the information you will need comes from https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee-2/ and here http://www.visajourney.com/consulates/index.php?ctry=United Kingdom&cty=London

Ok so i literally just wrote this and checked my status just for the hell of it and we are in READDDYYY omg we xan schedule our interview im so nervous i need to breath lol 

Personally i suggest you get started on your ds160 and medical as the medical takes about 3-4 days and has to be an embassy approved doctor. Im also still in transit since the 10th and my fiance will be finished with medical on the 27th hopefully it says ready by then so we can schedule our interview but its better to get a start on things unless your not in a hurry 

oh we got our date already a looong time ago! initially march haaaaaa - and then changed to 10.20.18  
 
venue is booked and all, so... i just had a good deal on the invites (get great newsletters with discount deals) 
so i figured let's start this as it may take weeks... but only took them 3 days
 
 

Yay, received my case number from the NVC!
Now I'm just waiting on my status to change to "ready"!
 
Really anxious! Ive been researching the next steps for so long that I'm starting to confuse myself! 
 
I just need a nap I think 
 
Congratulations and good luck fellow marchlings!

Posting my first ever message to congratulate you, girl @Naes! I'm just soooo happy for you! Thanks for all the help you have given to each member of this forum. Wishing you all the best!😊❤

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG 
 
NAME UPDATED!!!!! WE WILL BE APPROVED TOMORROW!!!!!!

Extra time with family definitely can’t hurt!! I’m terrified of leaving mine tbh. First time moving out and I’m moving 3200 miles away 😂 

Thank you for all the work you do on here.  You can save 1 invitation and stamp for your wedding though because I voted for Trump

Finally got our passports with visas, going to flight to my fiancé on 11th, wedding on 15th!! 
 
Thank you for every ones’ support!! 

@Naes Don’t make me drink that champagne by myself lady. I promise it will be ok, no giving up on this now. Sending you hugs xxx

Wait... what? Chickie, you ok? What did I miss? Sending good vibes and internet loves your way!

WHAT?!?!?!?! Don't give up girl. We came this far already. And it sucks. And it hurts. But at the end it will be worth all the tears. I am the most negative person in the world but YOU giving up?! NO!

@Naes baby, plz stop feeling this way. You have been encouraging  us including others in previous months, @John&Rose ,@Trinab80.We are all waiting to shout out on your approval, plz hang in there it's coming. 

oooh they better hurry up on that packet 3!!!  ayyyy!
i cross my fingers that it's happening these days and u r ready to roll!

and get all kinds of goodies hahaha
 
btw - this was the easter brunch i prepared for my 3 friends and mom  (i baked easter bunny breads too hahaha)
 


 
 
 
 

I don't know if this is about me or just a general post. 
I honestly didn't see anyone panicking or complaining. 
About me, I was just asking a question. 
I'm patiently waiting for my case number and just asked a suggestion, which is what the forum is here for. 
I know it can take up to 6 weeks and every case is different. Nobody ever said their case is more special or important than others, especially who's waiting longer. 
I haven't complained ever. Actually I feel like I'm pretty lucky. 
If I was complaining about something, was mostly about my fiance who doesn't want to call haha but it's not a big deal. It's more about me and my constant anxiety (about everything really). 
 
What I think is that a lot of people are assuming people are complaining and being kind of rude with others people questions. 
 
We are all in this together. Just try to be nice and supportive instead of accusing of not being thankful. 

Haven't posted much recent, but I hope everyone had a good Easter!
(I'm still recovering from the chocolates!).
 
My little update: We haven't attempted to call NVC yet, but we will be soon. We're not too worried about it just yet? 
My main focus is making sure I have all the documents gathered and prepared, whilst my partner sorts out the NVC stuff. So... we're getting there! 
 
Good luck to all of you, and take it easy !
