TwoInLove

Gosh I see it was touched again for the third time yesterday!

Gosh I hope you are right JustChillin! Thanks you guys for the encouragement!

Dum de dum, ho-hum.... still waiting.................. file was touched twice after the RFE, what is going on???????

Where is everybody?

Vic, what country is your fiance from? Please fill out your information and timeline, it helps the rest of us!

I'm not so sure I would believe that she is the USA but I would report her anyway.

Last year I took the year off for a break, cashed out my 401k and relaxed for a year. I applied for unemployment at the end of the year and got it, so I have been getting checks for 5 months but they are getting ready to run out soon. I used my unemployment $$ to buy things I need to start me off in my own business which I am going to start very soon.

I own a house as well that has equity built up into it.

I was thinking about bringing a statement from my bank showing my deposits and withdrawels for the year, I have adequate amounts being deposited even if they are from unemployment checks. I'm thinking maybe I should go out and get a job and ditch the unemployment because I would hate to come so far and then be turned down for our K-1 Visa because of finances.

Also, if I am self-employed for less than a year, how can I prove to the embassy that I am making money?

I've sent my I-129F March 16 and got NOA1 week later, but nothing from that time. Any ideas what is going on?

Vic, have you checked status of your case # on the USCIC website? You should be watching that for date changes on your case to see if it is being "touched".

This is what was posted for me on the USCIC website today regarding my case:

60 DAYS????????????????????? DOES ANYONE REALLY THINK IT'S GONNA TAKE THAT LONG?????

I THOUGHT WHEN YOU SENT IN AN RFE IT WAS APPROVED IN A FEW DAYS?

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!

I JUST RECEIVED MY RFE IN THE MAIL TODAY, THEY WANTED TO KNOW THAT I AM WHO I SAY I AM, MY MAIDEN NAME TO MY MARRIED NAME (I'M RECENTLY DIVORCED) SO I SENT IN MY MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE TO THEM TODAY AS WELL, SHOULDN'T BE LONG NOW UNTIL MY NOA2!

SOMEBODY HERE SAID THEY ARE WAITING FOR THEIR PACKET 3? I THOUGHT PETITIONERS WHO'S FIANCES ARE IN MEXICO DIDN'T GET PACKET 3'S? ONLY PACKET 4'S? AFTER I GET MY NOA2, WHAT DO I DO NEXT?

Got it today, they want me to prove I am myself (lol) - that my maiden name and my married name are the same person so I am going to send them a copy of my marriage licenses ay carrumba! Mailing it out today!

I still didn't get my snail mail RFE, hopefully I will get it on Monday

I also sent a copy of my final divorce so I'm not sure that that is what they want. I'm really not sure what it could be. I didn't have a long form birth cert for myself because frankly I didn't know they existed, I've always had the same birth cerficate so I never knew of anything else, so that could be it. Nor did I sent copies of my passport, you would think they could look up your SS# to see if you are a citizen or not? Stupid.

Anyway, waiting to find out what it is.

Steven did you get the request in the mail yet? What does it say??????

???

Ugh. I just got the email for an RFE.

Where is my NOA2?

Does anyone know what they actually do when they are reviewing the I-129F packet as VSC? Do they do any kind of checks there or anything?

This is pretty important for me to know!

I never got an email notification on either touch -

I'm still waiting!

Steven, what did you send in your I-129F? Did you supply everything they asked for? Pics included?

I got my NOA1 on March 26th. I supplied the I-129F, both G325A's, A intent to marry letter for each of us, copy of my passport(every page), copy of my birth certificate (which to prevent fraud, has a 'void' on it when you send a photocopy, perhaps they will require me to give them an original copy of my birth certificate), copies of my passport pages with stamps from there, copies of her visas to the US (perhaps I should have copied her entire passport?, not just the visas), 14 pictures of us together, even with some very well known landmarks, copies of bank statements where I made several transactions there, copies of what boarding passes we had for both of us. Not sure what else they could possibly want.

Gosh, I can't imagine what they would want either! Hmmmmm. Well I do know that the turn-around is quick, just supply what they need asap when you find out and you should be ok. Sorry for the let down, I'm probably heading in the same direction because I haven't heard anything yet. There are those whom have already received theirs before us which is a bit discouraging. Does the email say USCIS? I keep looking in my email but I don't see anything...

Steven, what did you send in your I-129F? Did you supply everything they asked for? Pics included?

You should get the RFE in a day or two, thank god it's Monday. They say the turn-around for the RFE is very fast and approval comes very fast after that.

No WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW DO YOU KNOW? DID YOU GET SOMETHING IN THE MAIL???????

Oh thank you Steven, that just makes me feel better seeing that!

Hi Balmy - I'm not sure I understand where you are getting these dates from - I pray we get the NOA2 this coming week (JustChillin too!) - I'm chomping at the bit here and cannot wait. I think if we were going to get RFE's we would have gotten them already for sure, I don't think that is the case.

I pray to get the NOA2 soon!!!
