Decison denial (merged)

[Wendy71 26]

Hopefully in the next few days he will get the letter with the denial decision and then we can go from there, if we can appeal then that's what we will do I know its something trivial we have either missed or misread. But I do know one thing this will not stop us from being together and having a future

Okay, so it took them 11 months to send the denial?

And what exact date in June did you meet in 2010? I saw your NOA1 was from July.

I mean no offense by my questions. I am just trying to help you. Taking a year ad half to make a decision on I-129F is highly unusual.

Did you include all pages of your passport to show it was yours? What exact date is on the stamp, and is it an entry stamp?

God read the timeline properly please and if you look we are with VSC who got back logged and slowed down in the end visas after june this year were being transferred to Texas. NOA1 07/2012 RFE 12/2012 send 01/2013 VSC received it first week of Feb 2013!!!!

Yes, after RFE they take up to 60 days to make a decision. They just sent you a decision now, in DECEMBER 2013, when they got your response in JANUARY 2013. That is 11 months or so.

Since you are swearing at me and generally being an ###, I won't help you any more. Good day.

According to your timeline you sent the petition in on June 5th 2012.

And the last time you saw your finance was in June 2010? What dates?

What proof did you send? A passport stamp? Did you include the whole passport or just the one page?

Did you include any other dated evidence - boarding passes, ticket stubs, etc?

+1 on specific June date that you last saw one another in 2010. If it's just one out, they'll want a newer date. Could just be that.

Your NOA1 date is past the two year requirement.

You met in person in June 2010.

Your NOA1 was in July 2012.

That's why.

Meet up again, then refile.

It is extremely unusual to see a denial out of NZ. If you were out of date when you filed, you will have to begin again.

Either out of date, or not free to marry.

I think the OP should learn some grace and apologize for snapping at people who were just trying to help. No one here has to put up with that childish behavior.

I was free to marry and I am about to apologise

Sorry for my behavior earlier I was on holiday with my fiancé up until sunday week ago I had to cut it to short as my father passed away I would have still been in the States when this decision was made. My father was layed to rest a week ago and to read our case status today just made my life seem harder than it is right now.

My fiancé filed June 2012 we received NOA1 exactly one month later and I do agree I think we may have been a few days out which is something we discussed after it was filed. I would rather appeal than reapply the process is so long and drawn out

If that is the reason (that you had not met exactly within the previous two years, but a few days more) -- then in fact there is no justification for you to appeal on. The error was yours: you did not meet the criteria for filing. Appeals only work when it is an error on USCIS part, not yours.

I'm not trying to criticize, just trying to save you time and money and frustration: if your denial notice does say that you did not meet in the two years prior to filing, then you really can't hope for an appeal, since that is true and USCIS is in the right. Your best choice is to meet now and file again.

+1 this post.

I know it's hard, but even a few days out makes you ineligible - they're just not that flexible. It's a hardline 2 years. Sounds like you've seen each other since that filing, so at least you can get on and re-file ASAP.

Also, the date on the NOA1 receipt is the day they're counting from, since that's the day they officially take receipt of the petition.

When he comes here I would go down the marriage path but I cant go back with him as his wife I still have to live apart from him so I guess if we have to start all over again then so be it
