By the way guys,

I know that this might have been a fluke, but a pretty good one!

Yesterday morning, I had my fiancée CALL uscis, just to check if we were approved and they said that they haven't processed us yet. Which I accepted since we were not at our 5 month mark yet.. But then last night we got approved... fluke or did that call help?

for you people still waiting on your NoA 2's maybe it's worth a shot just to call in a friendly matter, specially if you are not at your 5 month mark yet

Worth a shot??

Today,

I got the email from Ankara Embassy and it said here is the link to dowload the documents for K1 (even if I already did them). But it also said that there will be no 'further package sent'?????

Did they mean to me? Or to Him? (Maybe they meant that to me...)

Shawn? You just went through this, was that addressed to the Petitioner?

Thanks,

Mari

Here's the email:

Dear Petitioner ;

Greetings from US Embassy, Ankara,

This is in regards to the K1 visa petition you filed on behalf of KADIR Beneficary. We would like to inform you that your approved petition has reached our office. Please click on: http://turkey.usembassy.gov/visa_forms.html to download the Instructions for K1/K2 visas". A separate paper instruction packet will not be sent.

Once the necessary documentation and forms are received by our office we will set up a final interview date for your fiancé.

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Sincerely,

Immigrant Visa Unit

US Embassy, Ankara, Turkey

I've been busy with work and have neglected to get on here.

Sonoko or I did not get anything like that, no electronic communication from the embassy. She actually got a packet in the mail with all the instructions.

Then she had to go pay the fee and after that schedule her appointment. It is weird that they are not going to send a hard copy, what it someone was filing who did not have any electronic communications?!?

Although with that info, it should be good enough to start gathering everything available! An e-mail or call couldn't hurt either just to verify!

I still find it amazing how each embassy seems to conduct business differently. The forms are usually standard, but some require extra of this or that, send e-copies or hard copies and so on! Guess once it gets past USCIS, things get unstandardized.

I'm curious to see where this goes for you!!

Yep! We called a couple days before the 5 month mark. Hubby was so calm. If I were to call, you'd here the impatience in my voice. He was polite. Next day, NOA2.

Mari-- that is NOT a hat, it's a fascinator. :P And... I never realized just how uterine it looks! Wow. UGLY.

Haha. In all seriousness... CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL ON NOA2s!!!

I'm just happy VSC is moving and cruisin' the way they are! When it was at a stand still it was awful, but now they seem to be ahead of CSC.

OK what is the difference between a hat and a fascinator? Truly that one was the ugliest one at the entire wedding. I thought the Beckhams looked sharp.

So how's it going with you?

Love ya,

Mari

Guys,

question

should i sign DS-230 part 1 or should i leave it blank until i come over to the embassy and then sign it ?

what did the others do ? did you sign DS-230 part 1 before u sent it off to the embassy ??

(Double post, sorry, posted out of this thread by mistake)

I´m happy to announce that we received our NOA2 on May 5!!!

The funny thing is that I (the beneficiary) got to tell my fiance (the petitioner) since they didn´t email or text him!!!

Hope that the hard copy arrives on monday...

We´re very happy and pretty much satisfied with the timing considering the VSC delays.

Thanks to God for this "sign", since time and distance was making it very hard to us, and our relatioship.

[kristen_maroc 126]

@Yllen: CONGRATULATIONS! Felicidades!

@Mari: Life is ... interesting. I'm in Marrakesh right now (and there was a terrorist attack here last week at one of my favorite cafes... I walked by it today... it's... intense). Slowly applying for jobs in the US, you know how it goes. How're you?

46% of VSC December filers according to igor's list. WOW... any day any day any day.

And who will have this hat?

Hahahahaha!
