Just dropping in to say I'm another VSC filer. They gave me a bit of a worry, taking their sweet time to cash the check and let me have the NOA1 in hand, but the receipt date was marked a day after it arrived, so that's good. I'm just wondering why it seems like some people get an email notification of it first and why others don't. I put my email on the form where it asks and everything. I guess some employees are lazier than others? Oh well.

One more question: when it says on the timeline "your I129f may be adjudicated between May 9, 2010 and May 14, 2010*," does that mean I'll get the NOA2 then or it will be sent to the foreign embassy or.. what? Thanks for the help, and I hope we all get our NOA2s asap RFE free.

Before Journey:

Met online in 2002 as friends. Fell in love in 2005. Got engaged in 2010.

K-1 Journey, January 2010-July 2010:

NOA1: January 29. RFE: April 21. NOA2: June 4. Interview: July 15. Visa in hand: July 20. POE: July 22.

July 24, 2010: Married in front of 150 of our loved ones on a beautiful, sunny day. Living happily ever after and oh so thankful that 5 years of a long distance relationship and 7 months of a visa process is condensed into one line.

Wedding pictures! Because I'm shameless. http://s956.photobucket.com/albums/ae47/AmeriDaneWedding/

Adjustment of Status Journey, January 2011-March 2011:

January 25: NOA1 for AOS and EAD. Feb 5: Bio appointment received. Feb 7: RFE. Feb 11: Sent RFE response. Feb 23: AOS transfered to CSC. Feb 25: Biometrics. March 11: EAD approved! March 19: Received EAD. March 21: AOS approved! March 25: GC in hand!

And we'll live happily ever after.. for the next 2 years, anyway.

It's an estimate of your NOA-2. But don't rely on it too much, it changes every day

Yeah, unfortunately you're right. When I first looked at it it said somewhere around mid-April, but it seems to fluctuate drastically since. Thanks though!

Yeah, it's like that. When I submitted my petition it said first week of February, now it says last week of March. Just basically prepare yourself to wait 5 months, and then be pleasantly surprised when it arrives early :)

Yeah, we have a lonnnnng way to go :( I highly doubt we can go by the times the timeline tells us, given by the number of November filers STILL waiting on their NOA2. Slowly staring to get depressed by these long periods of inactivity.

We've set a tentative date for our wedding (Sept 25th) and have actually put deposits down on certain things, but I'm starting to think we'll be lucky if i (the beneficiary) can get an interview at Montreal before that.

Any other Canadians in a similar situation? What are you planning for? What do you expect?

Hehe. I might need more than just a pint for this process, but I'll be partying, I promise! :P

Also, is there any explicable reason as to why VSC is so slow compared to the Californian one? Less employees? I could use a job, I wouldn't mind working on the VJers visas.. cough cough..

Don't concern yourself with those questions, or you might lose it! Seriously!

There's no "system" as how things are done. Best is to hope for the best, prepare to the worst, and get drunk in the process :P
