  1. Ya I see on track my visa now they have approved 1185 cases filed in January and 176 cases from February.
  2. I agree. The track my visa site is saying we could hear something back by March 19 2024. I can dream at least 😁. I see people that filed in November are hearing back. Fingers crossed.
  3. Hello...Welcome! For those who have just filed your I-129f application with USCIS, this thread has been created for your needs and for you to be with others experiencing different aspects of this journey. This is a place to ask questions and to share experiences. All are here to learn together. Stay patient because this is a long process currently running 12-16 months for your NOA2 or petition approval by USCIS (first stage). Then your petition will be sent to NVC which runs about 6-8 weeks processing (second stage) and finally your interview at the embassy (third stage). Also, do not compare yourself to others....Some will receive NOA-2 faster than others, some will be stuck at NVC for longer and then finally some will receive interviews fairly quickly at embassy. STAY PATIENT! Please create the timeline in your profile. Also note that USCIS goes by "Received date" : Example I-129 F Sent – August 14, 2023 I-129 F Received – August 16, 2023 (NOA-1) I-129 F - Notice Date – August 18, 2023 In this example your NOA-1 should be August 16th. This will help you fill out your timeline properly.
  4. I don’t understand why people aren’t using this site anymore. It is so much better than a FB group. There are such great resources here. Everyone is so helpful and knowledgeable.
  5. Hi everyone, Did no one file the I-129F in July? I just mailed mine today and was excited to post my celebration about finishing that very complex and time consuming packet. Haha. Yay for me 😁🎉 Also I don’t see a topic here yet for August 2023. take care Tim and Joan
  6. Everyone is happy for you and trying to be accurate for you and other members here. Knowledge is power and we need all of that to deal with the USCIS. The correction and other timeframe info was also for other members here like me that are on the edge of our seats trying to get our loved ones to the US. Thanks again for your post. It gives us all hope.
  7. Ya they sure are I found out from the attorney that did the divorce the legal custody part wasn’t addressed because it needs to come from the Philippines court. Also they explained it needs to be done closer to the interview. So bummer there. At the time I file for the I130 is that when I should file for the CR2 /K2?
  8. They are working on passports now. Dad lives in Manila and the kids are in Cebu. He signed the divorce papers and I think he gave up custody with those papers. The plan is for them to stay in Cebu until the visas are done.
  9. They live in the Philippines with my Fiancé parents. Dad hasn’t been in their lives at all for 9 years.
  10. That’s great advice. I think she did but I will make sure. I’ll post what I find out. thank you Tim
  11. Yes she was. She is completing her divorce in Hong Kong now. It should be done in a month. Her ex is okay with her bringing them to the IS. Any advice on that would be appreciated. Thabks, Tim
  12. Hello everyone, I have been researching my situation a lot and need some help. My Fiancé is Filipino and she has been working in Hong Kong for 6 years. She has 2 children that we would also like to bring to the US. From what I can tell the K1 is a good option for this however we want to go through the embassy in Hong Kong because the wait time in Hong Kong is less and that is where she lives. My understanding is when a K2 is applied for the children the embassy will want to move her case to Manila. With a CR1 she can travel back to the Philippines right away after coming to the US. I would rather here leave Hong Kong and bring them through the POE with her all in 1 trip due to travel costs. any thoughts would be appreciated. thanks Tim
