I "met" Anny at a website in June 2005. Anny lives in Nanning, Guanxi Province, China.

My first trip to visit her was October 28 - November 14,2005. My second was 1/1/2006- 1/15/2006. We began filling out the I-129F that trip. I returned on 2/14/2006-2/25/2006, and we finished crossing every "t" and dotting every "i" for the K-1 visa application (I-129-F).

I sent in the I-129F in mid-March 2006 to the Vermont processing center. The case was "approved" on March 20, 2006. On April 19, 2006 (while again in China visiting Anny) I received notification that the petition has been approved and sent on to the NVC (National Visa Center).

Now it should be 2-4 weeks (from April 19) before the NVC completes the processing and creates a new case record, then forwards the information to the U.S. Consulate in Guangzhou. I'll keep you posted.

If anyone has any questions, contact me via a posting here.
