Congrats Everyone!!! Fiance(e) medical at Saint Lukes Philippines completed...Interview set for March 17...

Congrats!!! to all of your NOA2's...just wanted to share some updates since my NOA2 which was received on Jan. 13, 2011

So I waited for about a week before deciding to use the NVC automated system to track my USCIS Receipt Number. Starting on Jan.20 I called everyday, but everyday the same message. "I'm sorry we do not have any records of your case "or" we have not yet received your petition".

On Thurs. Jan.27 I decided to call NVC and waited forever to speak to an operator. When I finally got through the person asked for my USCIS Receipt Number, Name & Address of Benificiary & Petitioner and then gave me my case number and said it would be forwarded to Manila Embassy that week. On Saturday Jan.29 I received a letter in the mail from NVC dated Jan.26 that they received my petition and that it would be forwarded to the Manila embassy. I was so excited to receive a hard copy of the statement.

Today is Monday Jan.31 I just spoke to an NVC operator and according to them my Petition was received on Jan.24 and Forwarded to Manila Embassy on Jan.25...it seems that the dates they give don't match up, but I'm just glad it's moving. I guess I just have to wait until my fiance receives her packet of instructions or call Manila Embassy to check if they received it...

I'm just glad we've reached this point...anyone have any suggestions on next steps while waiting. she's been running around getting her Passport, DS Forms 156, 156K, 157, 158???, 160???, Birth Cert, NBI Clearance, Police Cert, Evidence of Meeting, Evidence of Engagement, CENOMAR, will send my I-134 Aff. of Support, Visa Photos, ...

when should she pay the K1 Visa Application Fee? Now or when she receives the instructions packet? and also the Medical exam? and CFO?

any comments suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Good Luck!!! To all of you we're all on our way to finally living our happy lives with our significant other.

Thursday January 13, 2011 received txt message that I-129F has been approved.

Tuesday January 18, 2011 received Hard Copy of NOA2 Approval Notice in the mail stating that my original visa petition has been sent to the Department of State National Visa Center(NVC).

So Exciting!!! taking it one step at a time brings us closer to the day we'll be together again...I can't wait!

For everyone who's still waiting...be patient your time is near!

After all that waiting I'm happy to share that we've been approved as of January 13, 2011 exactly 5 months since receiving NOA1. I hope this gives peace of mind and hope to all of you who are anxiously waiting any type of progress or updates...just waiting for hard copy of NOA2 and process to schedule interview...hope everything moves quickly from here...hang in there August filers this is our month!!!

I just have a question...on my I-797C Notice of Action, my priority date says 08/09/2010...1st Notice Date is 08/13/2010 and every time I get a touch on USCIS website I get sent a new receipt w/ a new Notice Date...what does this mean? I hope my petition is still in the right line up to be approved.

I set mine up here U.S. and sent it to my fiance in Philippines that ways she didn't have to fuss w/ it...plug-in and start calling me ASAP!!!.......My cell phone plan is unlimited nation wide and so all calls from magic jack are recorded in my monthly billing statement...I just pointed out which calls were from Magic Jack and included what her MJ # was...Used monthly billing statement as proof of communication.
