Hello everyone, my fiance had his interview today at the US Embassy in Paris, and everything went great. He was there for about hour and a half and the interview with the consul lasted only 3 minutes. He should receive his passport with the visa within 10 days. Thank you all for your help .

Hi,

I 've just recieve the package 3 with the cheklict and it says to provide the original copy of military record.

But I m french and born after 1979 so i didn't need to do the military service.

I think i could provide the "certificat de la journée d appel a la defense" but i want to be sure.

Is there anybody in my case who can help me

thx

It's been 2 weeks since my NOA2. Not at NVC yet. Hopefully soon.

Good you have posted ....lets hear from other people those who are waiting for NVC case #...

Me, Its been 3 weeks since NOA2 and my case is still not in the system.

Well I just plain forgot to post up about our petition being approved. Vermont recieved our petition on October 1, 2008. We got approved on March 2 and I called the NVC and it only took them 4 days to forward the petition to the embassy in Hong Kong. Lorena recieved her packet from the embassy on March 20. I'm getting so very excited that she will soon be here with me...;-)

Congrats!! Sounds like things are going smoothly. We were approved the same day and we are flyng home together tomorrow.

Chelsea, Yeah... We picked up our visa last Friday. The Embassy here was so fast. Balvino was so excited. Having the visa in hand was very important to him. Each step has been a hurdle for me. I can't believe Balvino and I will be in my house tomorrow.

Good luck everyone!

That's really exciting! Tomorrow is so...close! I leave two weeks from tomorrow to go see him and hopefully come back with him! Come back asap and let us know some of his reactions...has he ever been to the US?

Speaking of which, does anybody know how the 10 year tourist visa works? Does that mean they can use it multiple times over 10 years or just that they have 10 years to do it but only 1 time? We're just wondering what it's going to take to get Josue's parents here to visit and since the visa fee is $131 a pop I wonder how that works. Thanks!

HI Chelsea,

Yes, the 10 year tourist visa can be used multiple times over 10 years. However, the officer at the port of entry will determine the lenght of the stay, but generally they give you 6 months. I Hope this aswers your question

Grr, I just called the NVC and I was told my case was not received yet, and that it could take about 2-4 weeks and sometimes even 90 days for a package to reach the NVC. mmm.... I guess i'll have to wait a little longer and try to call again in a couple of days...

Glen

Thank you Laura+Tom and MashaJam for your quick response and Good luck x

Hello everyone, I just want to share my happiness with you, we've been approved!!!, we got our NOA2 in the mail on wednesday Now that we've been approved, what s the next step? just to wait for my fiance to receive the packet 3 from his embassy? Or should I be sending the copy of the original I-129 Package along with the I-134 with the supporting documents, originals.... since now? I ve been reading too much about this lately, im gettin confused. Good luck to those who are still waiting for their NOA2, just be patient and stay positive.
