Hi Everyone,

I know now is not the time to freak out about some mistakes if any I did while filling up the G-325a form which I sent to my fiance for our I-129f package.

But since I had already been to the US,I had been assigned an alien registration number and I filled that up in the form.Is that the right thing to do?I mean,or were we supposed to have left that blank considering we are not in the US currently or not US citizens?

I just am feeling worried about the slightest of errors causing a huge RFE terror :P

Also,there might have been one place where I realized I had made a tiny mistake,I just cut it out and wrote the correct thing beside it and put my initials on that place,that is standard practice right ?

Could someone be an angel and just tell me I am good and worrying unnecessarily?:)

You were correct in entering your alien registration number. If you left it blank and they found out about it, then it would be "visa fraud". The alien registration number states that you have been in the US before not that you are currently in the US or a citizen. The best thing to do in this whole process is to be honest. Don't fret, everything will be OK. Good Luck and stay positive. :thumbs:

Oh! Good news! No RFE for you, JohnAnwesha!

I have been sick,and on top of that I am working right now in a place I would rather not be,I have decided to suck it all up and work because I should be grateful to have a job in these bad times and all.But believe me,when I woke up all stuffed up and sick this morning and saw the VSC dates further pushed back,I just felt miserable.

I have had cases of bad luck,perhaps we were all just getting way too excited.

I really hope VSC does pick up speed again.

Oh, I think I got overexcited - they didn't get approved today, but on the 8th - they just shared it with VJ though - still means there is some action going on.

beantown - I looked at Igor's list under Immigration timelines - there you can see the most recently approved ones.

Yeah, at least the NOA2s are trickling out of Vermont. Maybe they're only half-eaten by zombies...

By the way, I totally agree about the puppy! When I looked at the pic, I'm pretty sure I let out an audible "squee". Look at his cute lil wrinkle-face!

My fiance and I had a bet - he said that there will be at least two approvals today... I - the ever optimistic - said there will be none. He ususally wins, and this will be the first time I won't grumble about it :)

Hi everyone,

Well so me and my fiance John did not have a good day, yest was a bad day.I have been sick and also eagerly waiting to hear about the NOA2s and all.And he just called me yest saying that he got fired from his job yest.:(

That was such a shock to take in,I had not seen that coming.

We are of course going to figure a way out,but what is the best way out.

We are in the NOA2 waiting stage,so when he sent out our petition,he had included his employment letter.

What do you think happens?

He will try to look for a job and all,but assuming VSC suddenly wakes up and sends us all approvals, should we decide on a co-sponsor for the I-134 or wait?

Also,if we did,it will be his father,but will there be a discrepancy since we had included his employment letter in the original petition?

I will really appreciate any advice .And everyone's hope and optimism is commendable !

Anwesha
