To wait for the next one.

And to update them if you change your address.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Hi I cut & pasted the words on my NOA1 for you. You will have a better understanding & for those of you just starting to applying for k1 Visa. This should be very helpful~ RECEIPT NUMBER -

CASE TYPE 1129 F

PETITION FOR FIANCE

RECEIVED DATE

PETITIONER- NAME

BENEFICIARY -NAME

NOTICE DATE

Receipt Notice- This notice confirms that USCIS received your application or petition (this case) as shown above. If

any of the above information is incorrect, please immediately call 800-375-5283 to let us know. This will help avoid

future problems.

This notice does not grant any immigration status or benefit. It is not even evidence that this case is still pending.

It only shows that the application or petition was filed on the date shown.

Processing time - Processing times vary by kind of case. You can check our website at www.uscis.gov for our current

“processing times” for this kind of case at the particular office to which this case is or becomes assigned. On our

websites “case status online” page, you can also view status or sign up to receive free e-mail updates as we complete

key processing steps on this case. During most of the time this case is pending, however, our systems will show only

that the case has been received, and the processing status will not have changed, because we will be working on other

cases that were filed earlier than this one. We will notify you by mail, and show in our systems, when we make a

decision on this case or if we need something from you. If you do not receive an initial decision or update from us

within our current processing time, check our website or call 800-375-5283. Please save this notice, and any other

notice we send you about this case, and please make and keep a copy of any papers you send us by any means, along with

any proof of delivery to us. Please have all these papers with you if you contact us about this case.

If this case is an 1-130 Petition - Filing and approval of a Form 1-130, Petition for Alien Relative, is Only the first

step in helping a relative immigrate to the United States. The beneficiaries of a petition must wait until a visa

number is available before they can take the next step to apply for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status to lawful

permanent residence. To best allocate resources, USCIS may wait to process forms 1-130 until closer to the time when a

visa number will become available, which may be years after the petition was filed. Nevertheless, USCIS processes forms

1-130 in time not to delay relatives ability to take the next step toward permanent residence once a visa number does

become available. If, before final action on the petition, you decide to withdraw your petition, your family

relationship with the beneficiary ends, or you become a U.S. citizen, call 800-375-5283.

Applications requiring biometrics- In some types of cases USd5 requires biometrics. In such cases, USd5 will send you

a SEPARATE appointment notice with a specific date, time and place for you to go to a USCIS Application Support Center

(ASC) for biometrics processing. You must WAIT for that separate appointment notice and take it (NOT this receipt

notice) to your ASC appointment along with your photo identification. Acceptable kinds of photo identification are: a

passport or national photo identification issued by your country, a drivers license, a military photo identification, or

a state-issued photo identification card. If you receive more than one ASC appointment notice, even for different

cases, take them both to te first appointment.

If your address changes- If your mailing address changes while your case is pending, call 800-375-5283 or use the

“Online Change of Address” function on our website. Otherwise, you might not receive notice of our action on this

case.

Please see the additional information on the back. You will be notified separately about any other cases you filed.

MY K1 EXPERIENCE blog...click on this link..

My K1 visa has already been approved. I had been really frustrated to find more info about K1 when we were still under the process. Some blogs have been useful. Now, that I completed the K1 process, I wish to share my own experience. So click on the link if you need more info about K1. The blog includes the requirements, med exams, questions on the interview, CFO and more. I hope that it will help. Thanks. Cheers and good luck.. :)
