We JUST got APPROVED!! My fiance just forwarded me the email today!! :) NOA2 in less than 4 months!

I have a quick question though...I am planning to visit my fiance in usa in 3 weeks for a few days.. Would this interfere me entering usa?? i really hope not! pls let us know :unsure:

"On May 10, 2011, 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."

Congratulations! star_smile.gif

also keep in mind that vaccines taken within less than 6 weeks of interview will not count

Where did you read that? I haven't come across that -- the Woking clinic just says to arrange to get immunized before your medical, and to bring the immunization records with you.

I'm not sure if the requirements are different for K1 vs CR1/IR1 (can't think of why they would be) but that is definitely not the case for spousal visas. I had boosters well before 6 weeks prior to my medical and had no issues whatsoever.

We Just Got Approved today January filers!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to everyone for sharing their stories!!! My heart is beating fast!!! Never received a touch. never completed my time line either I suppose I can do that now!!!! Our baby is due end of July, does anyone think he can be here by then???? My NOA1 date is Jan 7!! WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!

I'm anticipating our NOA2 as well.

We're estimated at July 29-30

But the way things are moving we -may- be alot sooner than that.
