If you do not learn to relax and have patience you will have an ulcer.... You are many months from completion.... You likely are many months from a "touch" if one is even recorded.... Relax!

YMMV

the (touch) will show a date change but not a status change until they are finished

many go clear thru the process to approval and never see a touch

Yes, relax and work on the relationship with your fiance. I doubt he wants any boyfriend filing a petitition for you. :devil:

Hopefully, you included letters of intent to marry which would give the clue you are now fiance and fiancee, not just boyfriend and girlfriend.

Hi Vicky.

Relax Relax:star:

I was also sooo stressed out when our case was pending at CSC.

It took almost 8 months for us to receive NOA2. So, I think you can guess how stressed out we were...I learned that things happen when it happens. So, do not worry about it and make the most of time you have right now. There is better way to use your time than worring about K1 forever.

So, do not stress yourself out. It is not good to your body and not good to your relationship.

Just remember that you and your fiancee are in this together. :star:

VSC seems to be on top of processing cases within reasonable time frame.

So, do not worry, Your case will be approved before you even realize it.

Good Luck :thumbs:

check your inquiry/status again in about 2 to 4 months from today. relax is the key. everyone went through the same process, exception, some centers do process it faster than other so, at least 2 to 4 months is a good period close to your adjudicated date in all centers.

If you dont calm down youll go insane. It takes some time for things to be completed. Just prepare to be here, and enjoy the time you have with family and friends before leaving.
