Rafa&Jus

I just did the exams in Sao Paulo, I don´t know if it´s the same doctor as yours, mine was Dr. João Jorge.

He just asked for the vaccines you mentioned on yours post, and that was it, no big problems, honestly vaccines are the least you have to worry about in this process.

When I went to the Dr´s appointment my vaccine sheet wasn´t clear enough for him, so he asked me to get a new one, and mail or fax it to him later, so if for some reason your fiance doesn´t have all of them at the time she goes to the appointment, they will tell her to take the ones they need and fax them later..That doesn´t mean she should go there without taking them...

Also, it´s true she will need other ones for AOS, usually HPV, wich is pretty expensive here in brazil, so I would recommed her to take those there in USA...

I hope I have helped, and if you need any clarifications, don´t hesitate to ask.

BIG CONGRATULATIONS!!!...cant wait till is our turn :-)

if you can, please write a review of your interview...is very helpfull to all of us :-)

again.. big big congratulations!!!

I already have a review out, it was all pretty simple, they just scare us a lot, but it went very smooth!

Hello everyone, just like you all I waited 7 long months for this to happen, so I wanted to share the good news, and say that without visa journey I could have never done this alone....all the info here are precious and helpful!

Good luck to you all in your journey, and keep your hopes high, as much as it sucks, your time will come!

ps:

NOA 1 - 07/02/2010

NOA 2 - 11/22/2010

Interview - 01/11/2011

I don´t think there´s such thing! but there´s this website where you can find really good deals.

www.clickandfly.com

good luck!

I got an interview date!

my noa2 is dated 11/16 and I already have an interview schedulled on January 11th! How awesome!!

Good luck to all of you July fillers, everything speeds up once it gets to NVC!

Seria ótimo mesmo se ficassemos no mesmo hotel...já dava pra economizar

Vou mandar um email pra eles tbm perguntando se o case já ta lá..

Se eles te responderem me avisa qual foi a resposta, e o mesmo comigo..te aviso quando eles responderem.

bjuuu!

Elo, meu NOA2 chegou dia 22/11, mas é datado de 16/11, o meu noivo acabou de me ligar dizendo que o NVC já enviou pro Rio dia 24/11, eu assumo que já deve estar lá...no flowchart diz que demora de 3 á 5 dias úteis pra chegar no destino...

enfim, acho que seu caso já deve ter sido enviado tbm...pede pro seu noivo ligar nesse número e perguntar...202 663 1225, e discar as opções 1,4,1,0.

Espero que eles mandem a data da entrevista logo!!! e tomara que a nossa seja junta!!

bjuuu.

Yes, but you have to keep trying non-stop until you get through. I kept hitting redial until it started ringing. It usually takes 15-20 tries, expect to be holding for 20 minutes.

I called the DOS today and it's closed? It's not a federal holiday...

Thank you so much for your tip...

The only problem is that there´s no way my fiance will try 20 times non stop, he hates that , and I can´t keep making international phone calls from work , so now I don´t know what to do

It is bs that DOS is closed, good luck on your next try.

Thanks again for the help

Did anybody have trouble contacting NVC?

My fiancé has been trying to contact them, to see if they have forwarded our case, but without any sucess...

The line is busy all the time, it doesn´t ring at all...I even tried calling from here (Brazil) and nothing!

am I calling the wrong number? 603 334-0700 ??

I just want to know my case number and know if they have forwarded to my country !

dont worry,i dont think its a background check problem,since only one person from july first to the 12th got approved ( there are a ton of july 12th approvals ) seems like either our cases got lost or something

My Noa1 is dated July 2nd, and I got my Noa2 on November 16th, so I think yours should be on its way....I really hope it is, I have my fingers crossed for u! Good luck.

It´s nice that it came so fast!!!

I hope that Rio schedules our interviews soon too, I got my NOA2 yesterday and I am really hoping for an interview in January!!

Boa sorte Elo!

We got our NOA2 on our 3rd anniversary! how cool!!

Now I hope we all get interviews soon!!

NOA1 07/02

NOA2 11/16

GOT A TOUCH YESTERDAY!!! 11/16!!! YAY! HOPEFULLY IS OUR NOA2!!!

NOA1 02/07!!!!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!!

Hello, I am not able to answer all your question, but the beneficiary has the interview in their home country, and you do have to pay a fee for the visa..

http://www.visajourney.com/content/guides these guides are very helpeful, and there are many other posts on this website that will help you with your doubts.

I went on your profile and was not able to see your timeline.

Would you be able to share that information with us?

I filed for my K1 visa on California Service Center, and still haven´t gotten any news...I just wondering when you received your Noa1?

I hope you get your information soon!

Good luck to you and your love.

Gap1...hahah, OMG!

I did feel like something was wrong as I was writing it, but I didn´t realize it until you pointed it out...hahah, that´s so me though!

My fiance says I have to make up my own dictionary, cause I come up with the most ridiculous words or phrases...hahah

Well, I guess after all " balls" could be romantic.

me and J have nextel phones...yes those annoying walkie talkies...hahaha, but it has been great so far, we have an unlimited plan, and it feels like we are in the same town.

We talk all the time! or fight..

Hello everyone,

I' m a November 2009 CSC filer. A year back, me and my now husband were exactly where many of you are now.

I know it' s not easy to be patient and positive but very soon, for many of you, it' s all gonna be so worth it.

Usually, once the approvals show up all goes much faster.

It' s about time for some of you guys to be approved already, 5 and more months it' s more than enough !

Good luck to you all !

Awww, that was so nice of you to show your support!

Thank u very much, hopefully we will get good news sooN!

hahah, that´s funny

I think after this long time waiting, anything would be romantic

YGR...By regular meetings I am not quite sure if you meant online meetings or travel meetings..

I would say that the online meetings, like skyping and stuff it´s really helpful, but it kinda get us worked up for seing each other and not be able to touch..urghh

The travel meeting it´s for sure an oasis sighting for a dying dehydrated human being, hahah

I haven´t seen him since April, I think I have died 5 times already

Ps: My love is in the military too, balls are so romantic

Gap1, that´s so sweet his mother has already picked up her dress!

We don´t really have wedding plans yet, we only know we are getting the big ceremony by the beach here in brasil, and that for sure will be amazing...I keep looking on google for pictures of beach weddings, and I am amazed!

I am sure after this whole process everyones wedding will be very emotional...it´s almost like earning an undefeatble couple´s troufy..hahah

Nandi8, thank you so much for your words, I have faith we will work this out, after all, we are just going through this whole process cause we know we are the best for each other, so hopefully things will get better...thank u a lot.

Gap1, it´s okay for you to brag about your happiness, it´s the best thing to brag about in life anyways..

I´ve had that honeymoon phase for the 2 years we lived in the same country and had been together, but this 1 year we have been apart has been rough, and I just hope that the NOA2 will bring that honeymoon phase back to us...I miss it so much!

So, brag as much as you want, you CAN!!

thank you guys!

Ygr...I am glad you guys got over it, in my case our situation got a little out of hand, and I am thinking about making drastic decisions....if only our NOA2 got here fast enough..

I am hurt, but not hopeless, just lost...very lost!

sorry about venting....

Gap1 I hear you...

We have only had one touch since July too, it was July 21st...

I am excited with the Late june filers being approved, hopefully they will start approving early July filers soon! (fingers crossed)!

The pressure of this wait has gotten to our nerves, and lately my fiance and I are having big time issues...

I don´t know if you guys are having the same problems....

This is just so hard!!!

I am hoping for the best always!

Hey guys, I´ve been reading this thread for quite a while now, and never wrote anything, but I felt like telling you guys you are not alone...

I know it doesn´t matter, ALL IT MATTERS IN THIS WORLD RIGHT NOW IT´S THE FREAKING NOA2..right? hahahah, but it´s nice to see we are not alone.

Like you guys I am a begin of july filer, and I keep checking the June and July threads...(painful).

Anyways, lord give us patience and strenghth to survive this ridiculous process, I hope we all come out of it sane!

GAP1 your blog is AWESOME, it made my day...I don´t know if it´s she or he, or maybe both, you are good writer

Sent petition June 24th.

NOA1 July 2nd.

NOA2 HOPEFULLY AT ANY MOMENT..PLEASE GOD?

its completely normal.

im just afraid that with the explosion of cases that will happen once CSC workers start actually doing their job,we wont be able to get an interview date til next spring.im a type A personality,im used to pressure and stress,but this is the worst case of stress and pressure i have ever gone through

I think we are warriors for going through this process, and I hope I come out of this battle "sane", so I completly understand the pressure you feel...and geez I hope it doesn´t take that long for them to schedule our interviews, all the way to spring? Instead of blooming I would BLOW! haha
