Does anyone have any experience here with the Yerevan Embassy? What are the typical wait times before an interview is scheduled? Do they mail you the usual packet three/four or is it done online? Can I, the petitioner, attend the interview with my fiancee?

Thanks for your info.

Just sharing the good news with you guys ... I received my approval notice this afternoon ;-] Hope your approvals are on the way as well!!! Good luck.

Wis-Can -

I am using phone cards managed by LDPost. They do not offer this type of look up service, only for an unreasonable fee, which I think is very lame. They do have all of my call records, but claim it to be an expensive maintenance task. Basically, just a way to make more money. I also have their phone card service [which is twice as expensive], and I don't make calls with it too often, but it does keep phone records. I have those. However, most of my "phone records" proof is associated with phone cards that do not.

Thanks for your replies, they are appreciated. I just hope the NOA 2 will come in soon, since this is just annoying at this point. ;-)

Hi All! First, this is a great resource! Check it almost daily for new posts, finally decided to open an account here as well. Thank you for such valuable info.

Q1:

My NOA 1 for K1 is dated end of September 08. I know it is still within the USCIS timeframes, but I noticed that a few people received their decisions already [their NOAs are issued early in the month, however]. Does this mean that USCIS is now looking at September petitions? Or are those folks just lucky ;=)

Q2:

With my I129F, my attorney included just enough evidence to show that my fiancee and I met in the past two years: pictures, boarding passes, visa stamps. Also, we supplied letters of intend for both of us, as well as a letter from her parents about the nature of our relationship.

I have the following items collected as proof of bona fide relationship. Please comment if this is solid evidence for the consulate, don't want anything going bad at this point. I am sure all of you folks understand - emotionally way too involved, we didn't get this far to have something go wrong ;-)

• Emails - two years of e-letters
• Electronic greeting cards for holidays, birthdays, just random cards
• Text messaging records
• Phone Records: phone bills itemizing the telephone numbers I call, and LOTS and LOTS of phone cards.
• Engagement ring receipt [she has the ring, obviously]
• Dated Pictures [over 100] of my most recent trip [includes engagement photos], plus pictures from two years ago when we first met
• Dated Video of our Engagement Party
• Letter from my friend, showing that my relationship wasn't kept secret or anything
• She kept address labels showing dates/post office info from packages I sent her [gifts]
• I also plan to be there for her interview, to support her as she is very emotional about this process.

I am a bit concerned with the phone card situation. When I use those to call my fiancee, her number doesn't show up on the bill. It is the number of the phone card that shows up on my statement. Is this a problem? I hope the USCIS appreciates that phone cards do happen. It is just so much cheaper vs. long distance.

Thanks for your feedback.
