Can I just add that we actually went for a free consultation with an immigration lawyer and she was the one who said "You don't need me, you guys can do it on your own" She's pretty awesome coz at that time I havent heard of VJ and we did it all on our own just basing it on the guide on the USCIS site! And we got our noa2 in a month! You'll be fine!

WOW, that is excellent. I used one the first time around and honestly it did ot help much.

Unless you have complications in your case (previous overstays or criminal convictions that need a waiver) I honestly don't see the need for the expense of a lawyer. There's example forms on this sit

Are you sure? I put it my zip code and it showed Nebraska as my service center. I was surprised by this as well. So I could be wrong.

Do you have the California service center address?

Thanks.

Just check the USCIS website for the instructions on the I-129F and you'll see you gotta send it to Texas and they'll forward it to your Service Center which is California if you're living in WA just like it's stated on your profile.

Whatever you do, always read the instructions first!
