thanks Mommy,

we are thinking about sending K-3 to embassy, because April interview is not sounding promising now and I can't wait any longer.. Have you heard why it takes so long to schedule an interview in thailand.. I only know of one person that has gotten interview 2 months after completion of case and I'm at 3 months now.

Hello,

Our CR1 was approved in Dec 22, 2008. Still waiting for interview, was told by NVC operator that March schedule is full will have to wait until April??? Is anyone waiting for interview in Thailand? If so any luck,,, has anyone heard what the normal wait times are for interview in thailand?

I have a question regarding I864 AOS form,

I have a question for part 5, Sponsors house hold size

21a is my sponsored wife

21b is me

Please any help>>>>>

Hello,

My wifes I-130 was approved on 11-6-2008, Does anyone know about police reports in Thailand?? I have read in other forums that the police reports can take up to 2 months to receive; can she go ahead and request a report now? Does she have to travel to BKK?? because she lives 400km from bkk. I just want to have everything ready for when I receive notice and sendout same day.

And can I be her agent here in the US?? or does this need to be her or someone in her country??

Thanks

I was told I might find the information I was looking for in the CR1 forum. I will also put into K3 forum too.

hello,

This is my first post in CR1 forum, I submited a K3 for my wife in thailand, and on 11-6-2008 the I-130 was approved by CSC, so I guess my I-129 is dead right? does anyone know what documents are required by NVC so we can have them filled and ready to mail when we receive notice? Can she go ahead and request the police report, and if ok to request can she only get from bkk, because she lives 400km from bkk??

I have not received my hard copy of the notice, only see on uscis website and can hear that its approved on phone when I enter NOA #, I still can not believe it's approved. I did see that it was touched on 11-07-2008 maybe this was date sent to NVC?? Does anyone know what the process times are for NVC, when will I get notice? packet 3? when I look at VJ timelines seems to move pretty fast when NVC receices visa ? any help will be fantasic.

Thanks

Pou & Brad

Thanks pushbrk, I have started to read CR1 requirements, it is making more sense now.

lovers in love,

I know I can't believe it either... The K3 was sent to CSC on 9-16-08, I wish everyone a speedy process.

???when will I see something from NVC???

Hello all,

I have a few questions regarding process

1. I sent I-130 on 9-16-2008 and received approval via USCIS website 11-6-2008, what happens to the pending I-129F???

2. Is this normal to receive approval for I-130 and not I-129F, having I-130 approved is the process the same?? Because I checked VJ K3 flow chart and it really only mentions I-129F NOA2 aprroval nothing about I-130

3. I see on timelines people are able to track visa's to and from NVC? How do I track my visa? I called NVC and was told that it might take 4 to 6 weeks to receive visa packet? and then another 30 to 90 days to review??? I see on VJ most visa packets are received within a few days by NVC and sent out within 1 week, is this correct?

Any help would be fantasic!!!

Thanks

I have seen what you are talking about, and I too have been waiting since 9-25-2008. What type of visa are you waiting for? I talked with CSC regarding process times and they say that 6 months is the norm for K1 and K3. I received my NOA on 10-1-08 and asked when I could see NOA2, she explained that when I see this it means that the visa was approvaled and forwarded to NVC. Meaning I may not see any movement just receive NOA2 within 6 months.

Speeditup,

I called to verify the information for CSC process times, Yes they are saying that total process times are 6months from receipt, and both K1 & K3 are processing in 6 months pending no problems.

So I sent in K3 in Sept 08, and should hear something by Feb 09 (hoping for approval ). Then the journey at NVC starts. But VJ timelines are showing short waits, 1 month to 2 month before arriving in (Beneficiary) country. Then time to wait again LOL.

So I will plan trip to thailand in Jan or Feb, too long to wait to see my wife.

Update,

I called and talked with USCIS regarding process times for CSC, and currently they are at a 6 month process time. This is a good sign I think, better then Feb 01. I mailed my wifes Visa in Sept 08, so Feb I hope its at Bangkok

thanks,

I'm just going crazy waiting, Did you only file I-130? or both I-130 and I-129F. Does this make a difference in process times? How long was your wait for NOA2?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I did send copies of both my wife and mine BC, plus I sent copies of passport to. I think the more the information the better, but this is what I did. I ask customer service at USCIS and she said more information will never hurt a case only help. Is this ok, or just opening myself up to trouble?

Thanks, so if I understand correctly my wife could possibly be in the US within 5 months?

I started the K3 process in September 08, I was told by USCIS that I have 6 months before they will even touch either I-130 or I-129F 6 month plus 5 month processing, this would put me into late summer 09???. I have received both 1st NOA's, but when I search similar visa timelines on VJ most on average are half this time? Some touches in 2 months. So who's right? USCIS or VJ timelines

I'm just confused about the whole process, does this mean 11 months before K3 will arrive at NVC?

I really hope what I see on VJ timelines are correct.

Thanks, any relies will help
