Hare

today we got a letter from CSC NOA2 sayin that our visa has been approved.

whats next im desperate to find out what documents i need to gather if somebody could please help i wld appreciate it what do i have to wait for now.. im sure there is answers everywhere on here but its so hard to search because there is sooooo so so many of them... for those of you that are still waiting hopefull you will hear from them soon seems like theyre still at the 5 month process for the approvals you can check my timeline to see how long it took us to receive it.. good luck to all of you

take your time ) this is long process

Hello everyone,

My fiancee owes 200k on her Credit Card and hasn't paid in 6 months. Will this affect our fiance visa?

think twice prior you marry that person who owns 200K

If you know it, ignore please.

Otherwise, you can track every month interview list here: http://newdelhi.usembassy.gov/visa_interview_dates.html

Loto

only seven days betvine IV package delivery and compliting your case did you expedite somthing here ?

Please note though that by the looks of it your are going through the CR1 process of which takes alot longer at NVC than a K1 does.

We will all get there in the end im sure

I do agree with you just be patient....

You are killing me

dont take this personal but I almost start getting creazy,Im at NVC stage and same thing waiting......

i sent my package June 29, then I received my NOA1 on July 12, from all the timelines ive seen Noa2 usually arrives after 2 months.. for me its more than 2.. almost 3 ... i hope the papers didnt get lost... i check my status everyday on the USCIS website.. do they even update that??? :/ i dunno if i should call them to see...

USUALLY ?? I recived mine in 168 days,so that is what you need to wait for,plus NVC processing another 3 months,plenty of time for you, just patience )

I recived AOS fee and DS3032 but there is somthing strange here,both forms my wife last name is listed as her maiden name is this normal or I need to call them to corect this ??

Well, that's certainly a K-3 situation, ya?

Suggest you call in to NVC, get a Human and start inquiring about case status on the I-129F

see http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/264972-shortcuts-when-checking-for-updates-from-the-nvc-and-dos/

You may be one of the lucky ones, where the I-129F travels from USCIS into NVC without the I-130 paired up with it.

If that's the case, and NVC truly lobs the I-129F casefile into the Embassy (that happens within 3 weeks, usually)

then ya got a shot at the K-3. If you'd like to take that shot - just remember, once yer foreign spouse is in the USA on a K-3 visa, still have to an AOS procedure. Then 2 years down the road, a ROC procedure.

The bad news, IMO - is IF you two will have been married more than 2 years on interview day, or on 'jump to USA' day -

then

a K-3 visa holder will only be awarded a '2 year card' after AOS.

If yer I-130 is held up because of an RFE (sorry, dinna check yer timeline, at all) then , IMO, it makes much sense to go through with the rest of the I-130 processing - and the NVC processing, then DELAY the 'jump to USA' date till after the 2 year marriage mark - cause then -

ya get the golden egg - the IR-1 VISA, resulting in a 10 year green card, on first issuance of green card.

IMO, trumps a lot of 'extra fees' and silliness with USCIS, always.

Hey - congrats on I-130 approval on the 24th, though - now you can play at NVC. I'm betting the I-129F will be administratively closed soonish. Disregard most of what I wrote above, as I'm betting it won't apply to you.

----

Good Luck, whatever route you decide to take !

I wana thank you for long explanation,day after they approved I-129F, I-130 Hass been approved to so I guess they will close I-129F in this situation

WAIT A WEEK AFTER APPROVAL DATE AND CALL NVC AT 603-334-0700. SPEAK WITH AN OPERATOR AND SHE WILL GIVE YOU THE NVC NUMBER. TAKE ADVANTAGE AN GIVE HER YOUR AND YOUR SPOUSE E MAIL ADDRESS.

thank you )

I think contact the USCIS and present the concern. If not satisfied, approach the USCIS through your congressperson as well.

IMO, IR1/CR1 is the best path.

Loto

question what is the best way to obtain NVC case # do I have to wait for hard copy from them or there is other way thanks

Loto

thanks for your help

Congratulations Hare :dance: :dance:

Do you want to pursue K3 non-immigrant visa and bring the spouse here and Adjust the Status? OR

IR1/CR1, get Green Card on arrival?

Loto

Im not postive what to do I-129F has been approved only, and I-130 still pending, does she need to do adjust a status ? when she get here Im totaly lost now

Hare, those initial touches are for NOA1.

I am curious on the last one got today Let's see if it is fake one, RFE or Approval

Loto

can somone ansver this question, I got approved today I got my NOA2 I submited I-130 and I-129F I-129F was approved and I-130 is still pending what is a difference here thanks

Received date is the date when USCIS received the I-130 petition by mail.

Notice date is the date when USCIS notifies you about the acceptance of the I-130 petition after the preliminary review and computer entry.

Loto
