Congratulations to all the new approvals! I'm still working London due to an extensions on my project, heading home Thursday, so I'm looking forward to sleeping in my own bed for once!

It's strange how quiet the approvals were for the last week or two. Hopefully that means a sea of them will come through shortly!

I know that feeling, I have to goto the UK for work once I finish my personal trip here to Germany. I think I get to go home for a few days, then head back. Maybe I can get them to postpone it for a week or two ... :wacko:

Welcome back Gaye. :)

Thanks, the time is slipping away already :crying: We are thinking about going up to Berlin this weekend ... who knows, just something to get out :) But I'm not going to fret over leaving just yet, I only got here a few days ago, and I don't leave until the end of month. So it will be that last weekend this month when it hits me :blink: But I'll manage ... I'm just hoping we get lucky and maybe get our NOA2 while I'm over here visiting. Will just be a little sweeter if that happened.

Congrats to all recent approvals, feels good that there is progress being made everyday, gives me a lot of hope, and also moves that estimated date closer in my timeline.

but at the same time, it makes it that much more gut-wrenching that mine hasn't moved yet, I need patience i suppose. I now have resorted to few times a day checking of the USCIS website.

It seems I'm trying to get into that small 1-2 minute window of checking the uscis website RIGHT before the email comes out, hehe.

Thank you Kim. (F) .. how's everything going? getting all the papers ready? You'll be filing pretty soon, I hope everything is already in order for you. :thumbs: I'm really getting excited for you & Russ. :star:

Parting is such a sweet sorrow... sometimes you just don't know what is better to be with each other for a few days or just to endure months apart till you could be together permanently forever.

It's been 8months since I last saw Rick.. we've been in this long distance relationship for almost 3 years now and his been here 2x already... his two visits have been days and weeks of bliss but everytime he leaves, it just take me weeks to recover, i just cry and cry and even daily chat and talks don't lessen the pain.... but still the pain of parting is worth every minute of being together.

Just enjoy every minute and every second you have with your fiance.... and when it's time to say goodbye, just think that you will be together pretty soon. (F)

Thank you gujraja. (F)

i could empathize with that gut-wrenching feeling, there's been so many approvals yet we are still waiting... BUT our day will come soon... I could smell NOA2 in the air even from way up here. :thumbs:

Thanks for thinking of us, Gaye. You are a sweetheart! Russell just mailed me everything I need from his end yesterday and i'm just about ready to go. 10 years of emails, phone records, chat logs, travel docs and pictures... I should be able to find something that would prove a relationship dont ya think?! :lol: 4 weeks from today I will pick up my divorce decree and overnight the package off to Vermont. After having checked it a billion times i'm sure!

I'm sorry it's been so long since your last visit with Rick. :( You're so right though, the leaving is SO hard and really keeps the strongest of us down for some time afterwards.

I know it's hard for you folks seeing everyone around your date approved as you wait but try to hold on to the knowledge that it really will be sometime very soon that you are approved and well on your way to your new lives together. Stay strong!

It is indeed a little hard seeing approvals left and right but I do trust God that He knows what He is doing. We have done our part in compiling and arranging our I-129F petition. The day Rick sent it off, we sent it along with a prayer and we have lifted it to God already. It is in His hands now... beyond our control.

Of course I still stress about it but then I look at how expensive botox is and it is enough motivation not to stress myself out. ;) I can't allow this visa process to give me the wrinkles coz I can't afford botox yet. ^_^

Hi !!!

could someone please help me !!!

i ve just received RFE and it says

You MUST provide “certified copies of all court and police records showing the charges and dispositions for every such conviction. This is required even if your records were sealed or otherwise cleared or if anyone, including a judge, law enforcement officer, or attorney, told you that you no longer have a record.â€

although my fiance indicated on the I-129F form that he has never been convicted of the crimes outlined on it, a government search of his records came back that he has been.

does anyone has the same RFE ??

does anyone knows if bad police report affect K1 visa???? :bonk:

Thanks alot!!!

I have not come across anybody who have rfe regarding police records yet... but I think if it is not some major crime and if it has been dropped or cleared I think you will be fine. you just need to have a heart to heart and honest talk with your fiance. You do deserve to know everything, especially a significant thing like previous case dropped or not... this process is already stressful enough, so there should be no added surprises along the way for the both of you.

I wish you the best and may everything be resolved the soonest. God be your guide.
