March 2009 K1 Filer

[BaWa 0]

Aha, this was the thread I was looking for.

We filed our I-129F during the very last days of March, so I guess we're March filing buddies too

Here's hoping I get approved before or during the summer, but realistically it will most likely be September.

But hey, a guy can dream, no?

Hello everyone.

We, that is Mat and I, filed on March 17th. (St. Patrick's Day ). We got our NOA1 and are obviously waiting for the NOA2. Haven't read through the hole thread yet, but it is good to know other people who filed at the same time.

Good luck everyone.

One question: What is the Igor# and where can I find it?

One question: What is the Igor# and where can I find it?

Here, Franziska, since I was just looking at it

http://cse.ssl.berkeley.edu/igor/vjdata/default.aspx

That is Igor's List for Calfornia Service Center. It's data based on the timelines people fill out on VJ. If you filled out your timeline, do Control + F then search for your or your fiance's name to see where you are on the list. That's what I do. Everyyy day

Anyway if you all don't mind I will join you March filers I sent my file in late February but I got the NOA1 on March 2, so I think I'm a March person. Normally I'm too shy to post on forums but I'm sooo bored of this waiting and sick of the whole process really.. why not write on a forum hehe... so hello everyone, it's a pleasure to meet you, let's hope this is a lucky thread

welcome to our group! If you got your NOA1 in march that makes you a march filer with the rest of us! I too keep track of where I am on the list so dont feel bad lol. When april hit and the top group dropped off the list we dropped like 10 places and I got all excited for half a moment The Number I have in my profile is from the Igor's list thing under the Immigration Timelines, my one on the real list is 122.

another Feb filer got NOA2 ... timeline is holding so far.. hope it lasts like that for a while

Looking through the Igor's link emmaline posted, it looks like from the stats that the most of the NOA2's go out around the halfway mark in the month. They have higher numbers of NOAs at the beginning of the month as well than at the end. Here is the link where they have the number (based on VJ) of NOA's sent per week (its based on how many approvals for that week that they did, not when you sent yours in, just so no one gets confused.)

Is anyone here female and 26 or younger? Looked at the required vaccinations and I (female and 26) have to have HPV to prevent cervical cancer (?). Before I knew it is required I had decided to not get vaccinated with HPV. Thought I'd let people know. was pretty surprised when I read about it.

I also obsessively check the timelines everyday

Yup, we all know. Theres been lots of posts all over the forums about it. I hadn't decided what i was going to do but now I know

Well, that's NOA1 added to the list for us.

Now for the excruciating wait for NOA2.

Here's to hoping for smooth processing over at USCIS, and I wish for the same for all other separated couples out here.

^^ Hi BaWa... how are you? best of luck

Anyway...I am pretty sure I'm going to get an RFE since I accidentally left something blank on the G325a forms. So if they could kindly send me that RFE so I could get cracking on it that would be spectacular.

I feel so guilty that I left it blank. I was filling out the papers while visiting my fiance and I guess I was in a hurry to finish up on the computer and get back to hanging out with him. OOOOPPPPS.. also I just realized the UK computer dude printed out the forms on weirdly sized paper. I cannot get my mind off of all the reasons they could be picky about my petition.

I wish they would just give me a touch, anything... I keep imagining they looked at the papers, thought "ew, WRONGGGGGG" and threw it in a fire somewhere. hehe

i doubt they would do that. Hopefully you will hear something back soon if you are getting an RFE, just make sure you have what you think you did wrong fixed before you get the RFE so that when you get it you can send it back instantly instead of waiting, that should help ease a bit of the extra processing time due to the RFE.

=heh= Humor is one kind of stress-relief, believe me!

Howdy, emmaline_g; thanks, best of luck to you as well.

I'm the USC half of the equation, and I've been running through the same, slightly paranoid, thoughts - "AMG! My papers are on standard US 8.5 x 11 inch stock, and his are on European A4!!" "AMG! My inkjet printer won't make a crisp barcode!" "AMG! My letter of Intent went out with the city/state/zip line reversed!"

I'm working on an ulcer if I don't just sit back and let it unfold as it will. Not a thing I can do except deal with any RFEs that show up here and start working on the I-134 paperwork, really.

So what's a girl to do? Chocolate, and lots of it . . .

Hey everybody, just checking in. I got my NOA1 on March 23rd, more than 2 weeks ago. I really hope the wait won't be too long as VJ estimates I'll be adjudicated by the middle of June. How is everybody?
