Where can I find examples of cover letters for my package to bring my foreign wife to USA

Thanks to all of you. Actually, I am going to see my wife in Colombia at the end of this month and am planning to spend 4 months with her. So if we get things done and finished with by March or April, it will be fine for us because the Idea is to go to NY to have her meet my children and grandchildren in mid May. I know I have to send the latest Income tax return among other things.

Well Congrats now you can join us at NVC

Now you can update your timeline. Start to prepare everything for NVC because it is much quickier then the service centers.

Thanks Phillip2:

Is NVC another forum? If so, how do I get there.

PRAISE THE LORD!!!! We have just been APPROVED!!! Please update the spreadsheet adding our approval. I never though I would be saying this. Long wait and only four touches is all it took.

Yahoooooo!!!! Two touches in a row. Last Friday and today. It is about time they did something with our folder. I kept hearing so many of you getting touches and approvals and I mailed in Dec 07 and my fourth touch came today.

I can't believe it. We finally got touched Friday. Is our only third touch since I mailed the package. My wife is very excited about it, but I will be traveling to see her for four months so we won't really need to be approved until March.

Have a blessed weekend everyone

I have given up, I hear nothing. Only two touches since Dec 07. First was receiving the original paper work we sent and then second touch was when we got transferred from Vermont to California.

Whenever it comes it will come, is just very depressing reading and watching for nothing.

Gee, don't feel bad out there. Look at us, we are the only ones from 2007 filers still waiting according to the spreadsheet. So we are actually the senior citizens around.

Gee, still action for some of you. Since Dec 2007 all we have to show for is the first touch which was the NOA1 and then Aug 25 being the second with the transfer notice. We just hope that we get some action to our side. We pray and pray as we are good Christians. :innocent:

♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪ for sure!!!!

Tomorrow is going to be great!!!!

Just got home late last night and found out that we got touched the 25th. Gee, I am getting excited because we are finally hearing something. For months and months we never had any touches.

As long as we are getting so excited about approvals getting near after these transfers, I want to start getting ready for the next step. I guess that approval means that all the paper work was accepted, what would be our next move???

I did call a friend that works for Homeland Security and (no help what so ever if thinking about inside help), and she said that because I am retired and collecting Social Security, that I would have to do lots of paperwork and affidavits with lawyers.

Anyone out there that can help me understand what would I need so I can start getting ready???

Maybe there is a thread or something in this site explaining paperwork etc for retired husbands trying for wife's visa.

Is there a way that I can see a list of my touches? Because all I see is one date there. I have been off line for 3 months traveling and besides being transferred to Cali I wander if I have had any touches.

We got a Notice of Action today (our second) but just to let us know that our case has been transferred from Vermont to California for a faster process (so they say). My new processing time date is January 17, 2008.

Did anybody received the same thing?

Hello Dec filers: I used to get an email message from this forum every time someone did a reply etc, but this has not been the case for the last month or so. Is there any thing I have to click to keep receiving the messages?

Chet:

You've said a mouth full. I worked all my life in a pharmaceutical company where everything is clean and very organized or else we are in trouble, but these people are so unorganized, lazy, and stealing taxpayer's money sitting around doing nothing. I don't see why if a person meets all the required criteria, just approve it and go to the next case. I feel that all these people working with this project are incompetent to do the job.

Does it do any good to call to check on status? From I have read I see that some people call, but does it help any. As all of you, we are December filers and all we got to show for is one lonely touch which is when they sent us the NOA1.

Before I filed for my wife I went to the immigration office to ask questions of how to do things and was told that it will take about a year to get an approval if everything was fine. But by reading in the forum I we got excited because there were people being approved in less than a year. Well, I don't know if these people are telling the truth but looks like it is going to be a year for us which are December filers. I share the frustration with all of you and more so because we are an elderly couple and have just a few years to share our happiness together.

That is great Onizuka!!! I wish you both all the best.

NO, you are not. Nice to know I am not alone. lol!!!

I am confused regarding follow up things after receiving the NOA1 (I-797C, Notice of Action). The only thing my foreign wife and I want is for her to come to the USA to visit and meet my family. There are no other relatives of her pursuing entrance with her. Just her and only to visit for now. Perhaps we may decide to move to the USA in the future but not in our agenda for the next 3-5 years.

In the Step-by-Step Guide on How to File for a K-3 Visa for your Foreign Spouse it shows to send a I-129F package with cover letter, etc once receiving the NOA1. Do I have to do this package knowing is just for my wife and no children or any other relatives involved?

If I do have to prepare this package, what should be included since there is no other relative involved.

Any information helping me will be highly appreciated.

Just checking all my December peers... Are there anyone left that hasn't been approved? It's good that this group is getting smaller and smaller, but I sure feel lonely waiting for my petition.....

How is it that more and more people filed in 2008 are getting approved faster than those filed in 2007? I am totally lost......

Nothing here. Just one lonely touch in February.

Tnaks YuanDan for your reply but we filed in December 2007 and all we have to show for is one touch. We sent affidavits of wedding witnesses, marriage certs and all the required things such ad birth certs etc. We did not send pics but could do so. All we want to do is mail more evidence to Immigration to add to our file. Steps on how to do this is what we want to know. I guess interview is very far away for us at this time.

Hi to all:

I would like to send more evidence of my marriage to add to my file. My evidence is a document showing that my wife and I have purchased a property together. This is one of the evidences that Immigration asks for, but when I filed I did not have the papers yet. I would like to know the steps of doing this so I can add the document to my file.

Thanks in advance to all of you.

Hi to all:

I am sorry for sounding stupid but, WHAT IS A TOUCH??? How do I know one when I see it?
