Congratulations Katie! I'm so happy for you guys, you must be sooo excited.

Highwaystar, Ana&D is right, it IS coming so hang in there. Just remember that after all this waiting and TORTURE you'll be back with you SO and happy as ever, and that's what we all want right? Don't give up! I always look at it like this : Being with Luis is worth the wait, even if it is long and painful

Hey Guys and Gals quick question.

All my papers that were sent to the VSC state me and my fiancée will live at my Oakland drive location (my parents house were I live now) I recently bought a house and settlement is august 5th. on my I-134 I put I currently reside at my parents house (assuming I get my noa2 by august 5th) I am also putting that I own real estate with a mortgage of 170,000 (my soon to be new house). Not sure if it matters but my current salary is 42,000.

My question is should me and my fiancée just keep going with the story that we will still live at my parents house since my parents aren’t moving? Or during the interview should my fiancée tell them that I just purchased a house? And update the address of my new house on any documents she brings for the interview?

thanks

I just wanted to let you know that my Fiance moved house couple months ago, we had his parents house down for where we would live when we filed, and he called and let them (VSC) know we would both be staying in a different address and they changed it and sent us an email telling him it was changed. Going with the same story is probably easier, I am sure she could update them at her interview though!.

Cool, Yeah maybe i could just include a letter for her to submit during the interview that I have moved out of my parrents house or something. hopefully that will not cause any problems :)

jonabis... i'm not sure about the address. I don't think the new home will matter so much as far as the interview..etc...as nothing is sent anyway. You'll want to note it on the AOS papers once your love is here and you are married. Anything can happen before closing. At least with your parents house, you know you'll get what you need. Congratulations on your new home btw. Now just need that approval! ;)

Katie and Luciano... congratulations!!! I can only imagine you are both on cloud 9! Keep us posted as you move along to the next steps.

So exciting to wake up today to see another approval. We needed it bad! ;)

HighwayStar, why do you feel that way??? Maybe just your heart and mind trying to protect you from your own emotions? Try to stay positive.. it's coming! :) It looks like your approval should be right around the corner.

PiP... I don't know what to tell you about your mistake. I wouldn't call or anything as I doubt it would do you any good but just wait and hope you don't receive an RFE.

Sorry to read that so many of you are fighting with your SO. So not what any of us need right now. :( We're definitely all living with high emotions and feeling it more and more every day, i'm sure. It is a difficult process and so hard not being able to just wrap around each other when times are tough but it's so important not to take it out on each other. Keep reminding yourself of where those emotions are coming from ...and know that there is light at the end of our long tunnel! We're getting there folks! :)

Have a great day.... I do hope it brings us LOTS more approvals!

What only one day at the top of Igor's Approved List!!!!!!! :angry:

Soooooooooo teasing. I have already fallen to the fifth position. Here's hoping that I will be out of the top twenty by next Monday. :star:

Congrats to all the approvals.

PrettynPink, I would not be overly concerned about the mistake. If they let it slide great, if not and you get an RFE, then you at least know that you will be done in 30 days, (IIRC), after you submit correct paperwork.

Thanks everyone especially KIMand RUSS and BRIAN..

Well fiance called and were able to talk to a lady at USCIS telling us that we just wait and pray that the one handling our case wont notice it and if they do they will only request RFE which i hope we wont get..hehehe..Still keeping my glass half full like most people here..

Not much we can do but wait and pray...Needless to say that getting depressed wont do any good at ALL...I had my share of few hours of disappointment upon learning about the mistake but I got over with it after my much needed stress relieving day at the beauty salon....LOL...hehehe :yes:

God bless everyone!!!

Hope we all get approve real soon..

Congrats Katie and Brian....

Good for you! Every girl should feel pretty and pampered! It's good for the soul. :) It's funny, even though we looked over our forms no less than 50 times i'm still concerned something is wrong sometimes. Someone will mention an RFE here and i'll need to go check and make sure we didn't make the same mistake. It's easy to overthink everything and make mistakes even when you're so concerned with getting it right. Overthinking and overanalyzing everything I suppose. It's enough to make you go mad really! I'm glad you're feeling at ease about the mistake. Hopefully you have an adjuticator who browses right over it and assumes you made a simple error. :) Hopefully we have that same adjuticator! :lol: Quite likely considering our touches are so close. ;)
