Hi, I just want to know how long does it take for USCIS to ship the approved petition to NVC? It's been 9 days since we got our NOA2 (sorry if I sound impatient), and we're trying to hurry everything and we're rooting for an interview around mid August.

I called earlier and the lady said it could take up to 8 weeks, and I'm a bit worried. ClockWatch2.gifsleep.pngblush.png

On October 2013, our I-129F Refused under 221(g)

Actually, our case was transferred from VSC to TSC, I didn't think it'll take that long for the petition to get to NVC. sleepy.gif

That is really pushing it to aim for the middle of August for the interview and you haven't even gotten your MNL # yet.

If you are going to rush thing I would suggest your fiancée complete CFO while waiting and have that done.

Oh, well, I thought it'd only take a week to have the MNL#, guess I was wrong.. we originally planned on getting an interview towards the end of August, I guess that sounds better right now, huh?

Oh, and Hank, I don't have a sufficient income, since you seem to be the expert on this, do you think we'll be denied for having my mom as a co sponsor? I just wanna make sure. I know I've asked this and researched it, but I'm getting lots of different answers.

Thanks, Hank!!!

Always the disclaimer :lol: USEM is not known for accepting co-sponsors with the K-1 visa.

BUT.. The have been known to accept a co-sponsor if it is a family member, so your mom is good.

Next. Along with completing the I-134 also complete the I-864, having that form seems to improve the odds of being accepted, and odds are they will take the I-864 and leave the I-134, just the same bring both as the I-134 is on the required list.

End of August may still be pushing it, considering you have not gotten your MNL # yet, if you had your number I would be more inclined to go with the end of August.

Oh, I see. I see. Thank you, Hank!!!

I'm really hoping to get that case number soon, it's just we're gonna have a conflict in schedule, that's why we're trying to get him here asap. He already got everything that he needs, he's just waiting on my paperwork, cause I'm still waiting on my tax transcripts, but once I get that, I'll be sending the paperwork there. We can just print the NVC email, right? Or scan the hard copy then print it?

Thanks, again Hank! :)
