thanks for the help guys :star:

but on your signature timeline it says they cashed cheque oct 14? that got me confused again hahaha lol

just checked the stamp by vsc at the back of the cheque above the case number it says 100308 which is oct 3 2008 and as i said earlier the online thing said that they received the petition oct 3 also. i guess i wanna stick with the oct 3rd coz i know i will just feel bad if i put sept 22 and then count days behind and would count longer coz vsc actually counted me in their system oct 3 plus it makes me one of the 1st filers for oct and not the last of sept and it would be easier for me to check with you guys coz the oct file group is not that big yet.

how about you guys?what date was stamped by vsc behind your cheque? and what date does your online petition say that uscis recieved their docs? i was just wondering where we all stand hehehe thanks for the info and good luck to all october filers! B)

I said to Tom they must not want his money!

Kaye, check out the cropped pdf attachment of my NOA1. The NOA1 hard copy shows the "RECEIVED DATE" which is the date the VSC received the document from USPS and is the date stamped on my return receipt (this was oct. 02 for me). In your case it should be sept. 22. The "NOTICE DATE" for me is oct. 03 (which was also the same on the online petition) and should be the same for you too. The notice date is the one that matters. I hope the attachment shows up properly.

I said to Tom they must not want his money!

What confused you? Because I said they didnt want our money in my post from the 17th? We found out a couple hours later it had been cashed on the 14th but didn't show up on Tom's bank statement until the 17th.

The date on my cheque was the 14th. The date on my NOA1 was also the 14th. I wouldn't let it worry you too much. Whatever date ypu put on your timeline, your projected date for approval gives a window of about a month anyway.

thanks again! hehehe sorry for getting everyone confused....i dont know also when the cheque was cashed for my case. my fiance just sent me an email copy of the stamped part of the cheque. i also want to see our hardcopy of noa1 i just hope it would arrive by monday already. did everyone sent a letter of intent to marry from the beneficiary also? coz i did not make one ...only my fiance (petitioner) made his coz we followed the procedure from the instructions on the I-129F and later on i found this VJ and just read what you guys have been doing. if i dont have that letter do you think i would get an RFE?

does anyone here know if i still need to get a police clearance from state of maryland coz i lived there for 19 months. coz i just think the us embassy as their own system on checking police stuff for their own country? any help pls?

I know both my fiance and myself sent the letter of intent. However, no point in worrying about it now until you get an RFE. It really varies from person to person to see who will get an RFE and for what. If they ask just provide it in a timely manner, that's all you can do. Good luck!

I believe you will need to have police clearance from Maryland/USA since you had lived here for more than 6 months, however you will not be required to show it until the interview. I actually live in the state of Maryland so if I could provide any help, I would be happy to do so.

wow thank you very much!!! i wanted to call uscis and check with them if i do really need one coz somebody told me that us embassy in manila is also tapped with the system and that i don't need it anymore and that i only need the police clearance from manila philippines. my fiance said that he would call but it has been a week already and i hate him for not calling uscis about it. i wanted to call personally to uscis but its too expensive for me to call long distance coz i am so bothered already and wanted to know asap coz it might take months to get one or that maybe i also need to personally get it from usa and thus need to go back to usa which is expensive.

if you have time to ask around i would be very happy! thanks in advance :star:

where in maryland are you from? i use to live in baltimore...

Apparently you don't need police certificates if you have lived in the US. USCIS has ascess to all databases and will be doing an FBI name check on you aswell.

EDIT: Just found this on my embassy website, will probably apply to yours too 'Applicants who have resided in the United States are not required to furnish a police certifiate to cover their period of residence as a clearance will be obtained on their behalf by the Department of State'

Kaye,

Looking over some posts, I agree with Laura+Tom that the Police certificate is not needed for the time you were residing in the US. I apologize for my incorrect response. I live just north of Baltimore, near Towson.

Hello Kaye,

I have never been to the H-Mart. I gotta find one before my fiancee arrives. :D

Will you be moving back to the Baltimore area with your fiance when you return?
