Thanks for all the love guys! :star:

I called Luis before and he's flipping out too!! We're pretty excited. It actually feels real now.

When should I start checking the NVC and stuff like that? I'm so confused as to what to do next.

Another thing, do you guys think it would be a problem if I got my financial stuff together now? I know it will prob be at least another month till the interview, but I kinda dont want to leave anything till the last minute. I'm not sure how long the letter from my job will take or the letter from the bank, that's why I want to get it done right away.

Tell me what you guys think.

Suz

Congratulations everyone with NOA2's. I'm so stocked for you all. Sorry I haven't been so vocal recently, trying to adjust to my new home and keep busy. Sending you all good vibes as usual though.

Congrats Suz :star:

Got a question about page 4 of the I-134 where the Notary Public fills out.

It says Subscribed and sworn to (affirmed) before me this 20th day of August at _________

What is the "at" asking? The current time?

Thanks

I let the notary fill out that entire section. I think she put something like "XYZ Bank, Smalltown, TX."

Feliz Navidad, Suzy!! Bueno.

?Donde esta los banos. Mas hielo por favor.

Frijoles y fajitas. :rofl:

(OK, I don't know much Espanol or have little accent marks on my keyboard but I'm still wishing you well.)

Yes, get everything done. I had mine all ordered and done before NOA2 and just printed and got the notary signature on the I-134 like the day after NOA2.

We have just received out interview date of September 4th and as some may know we are using a co-sponsor, Megan's Step-Father.

So we have and I-134 prepared and notarised for both Megan and her Step-Father. Last 3 years tax transcripts for both. Letter of employment for both and a notarised letter of intent for Megan and I to be married. Is this everything we need to meet the financial requirements laid out by the poverty guidleines? Is this covering everything that the London Embassy will ask for, for both Megan and her Step-Father????

Thanks in advance.

Suzy you silly girl! Of course, gather your stuff now! I'm not sure you'll need a bank letter if you meet the minimum requirements. I sure didn't and don't know of many that do.

Congratulations everyone with NOA2's. I'm so stocked for you all. Sorry I haven't been so vocal recently, trying to adjust to my new home and keep busy. Sending you all good vibes as usual though.

Bex xxx

Hi sweetheart! Good to hear from you! No need for apologies girl you should be spending time with your man! :) Do keep us posted on you though.

Hi mama Nich!

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you got London covered Graham. btw..just so everybody else knows... the only thing that needs to be notarized is the I-134 ;) Nich posted a really great list of the London requirements..best to check with her..she rocks. :)

I would love if Russell's date is around about ours!!! Means we could go through AOS together too!!!!!! :lol: And we promise to keep in touch, you guys can even be an honourary Aunt and Uncle if you like?!?!?! ;)

awwwww auntie Kimmy and uncle Russy! :) :) :) I'm sure we'll be around this place a long time..once i find a passion for something I find it hard to part with it. :lol:

Well we've not left the NVC yet for some parculiar reason. Oh well, i'm sure it will be soon. :)

Have a great night folks... and do your homework like good boys and girls! :lol:

.. now plz tell me how to have more PATIENCE!!!!

I wish I had an easy answer. All I can tell you is that i'm my mother's daughter ;) ...and much like Brian, I tend to keep my glass half full as much as I can. Almost annoyingly so sometimes i'm told. :lol:

I know it's been a lot longer for us than most and with the lack of visits after all the time we actually lived together, I could easily have lost my mind. But life lessons have taught me an awful lot about where to focus my energy. It's just too short to waste even a day. I knew what was coming and, like I've mentioned here before, the thought of picking Russell up at the airport lifted me out of that depression haze on more than one occassion. Eyes on the prize!!! ;)

I know this has been said time and time again but goodness - people aren't kidding when they say after getting the NOA2 things start to roll super fast. You'll almost be wishing you had more time. Ok, not really - but holy crow does stuff move once that approval is in....

Congratulations to all the new approvals !

I received the NOA2 a month ago and that's it :( ... Nico got the instructions to get his medical and in Uruguay there is a strike and havent been able to get that done. I havent sent him the package with all the forms fill out due that my lawyer's assistant was on vacation last week and this week , she still havent contacted me.

I had a deadline on mind when I apply for the K1 visa , that he will be here by August 31 and I know now that it would not be the case.

I'm down and upset!

How long you guys think it will usualy take to get your interview date once they received packet 3?

Thank you All!

:lol: Lauren, you're not complaining are you???? I still want it faster!!!

Sandra, how long it depends varies on Consulate. Check the Embassy reviews for Uruguay and they will tell you. You don't really need your lawyer to send what your fiance needs...especially if all they're doing is holding you up... but I understand if you want to wait.

Affidavit of support (example forms here)... tax transcripts of copies of returns (usually just one year), letter from employer (example here) and copies of paystubs... new letter of intent with original sig (also example form here).. copy of NoA2(I-797)...and anything more you have to add regarding ongoing relationship. That's about it. ;)

My man is off to his medical in just a couple of hours (it's Friday in NZ) ..he got his p3 from the NZ EM yesterday! Exactly one week after our approval...they even overnighted it to him. Our approved petition still hasn't left NVC. :lol:

Kim,

I did the whole process with the lawyer. I thought it will expedite things. I dont know what else to do? i wrote her an e-mail and all that and she wrote back saying as soon as she has all the paper work ready she will let me know. I feel like screaming and crying .

On the other hand, my fiance because he had some drinks with his best friend that came from another city to visit him on sunday. He didnt get his medical on monday and then on tuesday they are on a stike.

It just sucks! I 'm upset and not feeling very well.

Thanks for your support and understanding.
