It will go to the National Visa Center, stay there a few days to a week, if you dont end up in AR...and from there it goes to the country where your fiance will get his visa from, to prepare for the interview.

Congrats :)

Say a prayer you dont end up as our petition - it was approved and everything going great until someone for no reason decided it needed to be reviewed and it was sent back to USCIS where it stalls.

Almost 90 days and nothing at all for us so far. You have to wait 90 days just to file a complaint or get a petition of expedition taken seriously.

That Post decision activity on the website is their way of saying - get in line.

I pray that you get sent right to the embassy. The NVC/State Department was unbelievable in my case.

05-21-2009 filed I-129F (check was not cashed for quite some time)

08-21-2009 contacted Senator's Office

09-01-2009 Petition received, NOA1 sent (finally)

10-09-2009 Petition approved, NOA2 sent

10-16-2009 NVC received

10-26-2009 NVC sent back to USCIS((( their reason: a USCIS office received this case from the State Department with a request that we review it. We will notify you when we complete our review, or if we need something from you

No RFE has been sent or received, no updates given, all trails end with recording or operator/officer who says must wait 180 days

1-26-2010 this will be the 90 day mark of the "review", I was told I can call back and issue a formal complaint if the case has not been touched by this date.

Still, we keep hope alive - I love her so much for staying strong.
