Hi all,

So firstly a BIG thank you to everyone for all the help myself and my fiancé have received.

Today our application was accepted but im curious what the next step holds. On the USCIS website it says;

"On January 12, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.

For approved applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include USCIS sending notification of the approved application/petition to the National Visa Center or the Department of State. For denied applications/petitions, post-decision activity may include the processing of an appeal and/or motions to reopen or reconsider and revocations."

As im aware everyone applicant needs to go through the interview process, however on the USCIS website it says we are on the "post decision activity" and it shows we have skipped the "testing and interview" stage.

Is this the same for everyone else or do i not require an interview?

Any help would be great.

Congrats!

Don't worry about the USCIS site - it lags sometimes - you will require an interview though. (well - your benificiary will)

(moved to K-1 progress from K-1 process)

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

Congratulations....things speed up rather quickly from here. Call the NVC in about a week to see if they have forwarded to your embassy, or everyday if you are impatient like me. Then wait about another 5-7 day's and call the embassy, wait longer if you want because this costs money in most cases. Next they will send you, not the petitioner, your packet. We scheduled our interview ASAP I don't think we even waited on the packet to arrive. Important thing now is to be gathering everything for your interview. Here is a detailed flowchart. Best of luck! http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...amp;page=k1flow

It's normal for a K-1 to go to post-decision activity upon the NOA2.

They use the same website and progress scale for a lot of different types of visas and immigration processes. The interview they are talking about in that progress scale could be something like the biometrics your future spouse will go through during the adjustment of status phase, or for some other immigration process.

The K1 does not require any further action by the USCIS after approval so it goes to post-decision activity.

This is Manila, where you call to set your own appt. after you receive packet 3... I'm pretty sure England will send you packet 3, you will submit the required documentation, then they will send you packet 4 which will have your interview information (which is more common).

Everything (after the NVC) is up to your particular embassy's protocal after this point, and you'll find the most accurate and helpful information about the further steps of this process in the regional forums.
