Hi guys!!!🤗

Silently reading all posts on here about K1 visas. Finally have the guts to jump on here.

Case rcvd on Sept11 but date on the mailed paper is Sept13. Not sure which date is which for NOA1.

Counting the days...

I started counting from the date USCIS received our packet.   We have a group chat if you wanna join. 

This thread's gone silent and I almost couldn't find it.  Just bumping it up to keep it active somehow.

No text or email and the website still has no update. But I just got the letter in the mail today!

Good luck everyone. 

Congrats!

Just got the weekly VJ estimated date email where once again its moved back. Moved back almost three weeks from when I got the NOA1. Praying for something this week.

Mine is now 10 days behind the original estimate.

We finally received the hard copy of our Receipt Notice.

10/15/2019: NOA1 Letter

 

There is an A-Number above my name (beneficiary). Does anyone else have this?

I really think that's already your NOA2.. Look:

If you mean mine, then no unfortunately. I have a social security number since I used to study and then work in the us. 

Oh, sorry. I meant @Soon To Be Mrs. T. My bad.

Yeah, my fiancé was born in the us to American parents so he doesn’t have an a number. Hopefully it’s all good that there is none for me either then! I have a social security number already though, I don’t know if that has to do with it?

Ohmigosh, I think that might be the NOA2 letter already! @Soon To Be Mrs. T Is that I-797C or I-797? If it's the latter, that's already the appoval notice! 😍

There is no alien number on my noa1... is there something wrong with mine then??

Looking at our NOA1 letter right now and there's none in ours as well. The only A-number there is my fiance's since he's a naturalized citizen (plus it's on the upper right box beneath the Notice Date).

With the faster than normal  approval times are  many of you looking for  your NOA2s BEFORE years end? It's a good bet that some of you may see that, OMG  how exciting. I'm  rooting for you all.

Thanks, we're really hoping! *fingers crossed* It would be an awesome Christmas gift.

Got our NOA1 letter on September 12th and I’m glad that we can go through this horrible waiting together!

Yeah, it's a waiting game for us now.. You could join us in the group chat so we could all while the time and commiserate together. 😆

Hey guys, here's the link to the FB Messenger group chat if anyone wants to join:

Please do introduce yourself, ayt? See you there!  

You guys wanna make an FB group chat for us here on the thread?

Hopefully this week is full of NOA2 Approvals!

Claim it!

How do I get in on the group chat? Hopefully it can help me deal with the long wait for the NOA2 lol

Just ask around in FB K-1 visa groups.  I'd add you to ours, but it's a local group for K-1 filers from PH and most members converse in the local language so you might just feel out of place.. ✌️

Yeah we have a ways to go. I like to keep things active in a thread, incase new people didn't see so you'll probably see me popping in here and saying howdy lol. 

Yeah, I get ya.  Been busy in our group chat too, just whiling away time, you know?

Really discouraging that every week the VJ "estimated date email" gets further back

Yeah, I got the email too. It's now 5 days past the original estimate. :( I hope it doesn't go any further than that..

Howdy guys, just wanting to check in and see how everyone is doing  

Still hanging in there.  Time of reckoning is still pretty far out so still feeling pretty chill about the whole process..

No ID at all is required. I think they were only referring to if you intended to drive w/o an in-state license as a resident.

Fair enough. Thanks!  

9 minutes ago, Jorgedig said:

Well, if they continued to drive on their foreign license after moving here, they could  be cited for driving on an invalid license.  I don't know what the consequence for that is.

I mean, what if the new resident isn't planning to or cannot drive at all? Is it still needed, as a state ID perhaps?

On 9/19/2019 at 8:50 AM, Jorgedig said:

Agreed.  My state requires all new residents to the state (whether they move here from another US state or another country) to obtain a Washington DL within 30 days.  Same goes for licensing cars that people bring when they move here.

I didn't know that. Thanks for this info.  What happens if a new resident doesn't get a WA DL within 30 days?

Quick question. Is there any reason to register an account on the USCIS website? I see a place to login and sign up, but is there any point to signing up? 

I'm the beneficiary and I signed up. I figured my fiance would get the status update via text or email due to the G-1145, but I wanna be notified of any status changes as well.

Dumb question and I’m sure it’s covered somewhere else but... 

 

The address on the bottom left corner of the NOA1 letter - is this the service center where my petition went? If so, we’re in California. 

Yes, it is. Most K-1 applications are processed there.

Hello all,

So we recieved our Noa2 on Oct 3rd and I have a couple of doubts. 

1) Is there like a link or a page in VJ where I can view a list of the documentation we need to prepare for the interview? 

2) I read people saying that we can start calling the NVC in around 4 weeks. Once we get the case number,  can I go ahead and do the medical, fill in my Ds160 and book my interview slot?

3) If I get an interview date maybe in like a month, and I still dont get the packet 3 from my embassy, what do I do? Do I rebook the interview?  Or packet three /the call letter isnt necessary in the Mumbai Embassy?

 

Congratulations!

Here's a handy link for the documents you need for the interview: https://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guide/
