Hey everyone! Mine was sent out July 26 but I received my NOA1 dated August 1st. Now the agonizing wait :whistle:

05/23/2008: First met

04/03/2009: Had our son

07/26/2011: Mailed off I-129F

08/01/2011: Received NOA1 dated August 1

Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between December 16, 2011 and December 21, 2011*.

Well, assuming I'm here for the 5-month duration (and not a moment longer, ya hear, CSC??!), today marks my halfway point to petition approval. I'll take any excuse I can to celebrate a milestone, so

You don't need your fiance's birth certificate. I included all pages of my fiance's passport because there were entry/exit stamps verifying that we've met in the last two years. I would just include the passport if there's stamps in it. :)

Thanks a lot! this really answered my question, it was useless calling the 1-800 # =) Btw, How do you assemble or label the supporting documents? like photos, copies of boarding pass, letters...etc

thanks! :help:

Got my USCIS Acceptance Confirmation email today! But one thing that I'm concerned about is that it said:

Your USCIS application/petition has been received and routed to the California Service Center for processing.

When I did my zipcode on the USCIS website, it said Nebraska Service Center. Which is only like 4 hours form where I live. Did I do something wrong?

Well, I was incredibly ####### about the organization of my packet. I bought a plastic folder type thing that had probably 15 folder slots inside. I labeled each slot with the corresponding information that was inside, example: the first slot had cover letter and payment, second one had forms and under that I wrote I-129f, G-325a, G-1145, etc. Then I went to Birth Certificate, Passports, Emails from Michiel to me, emails from me to Michiel, receipts, and I put post it notes on pretty much everything in the packet saying what exactly it was, and what date/dates it was from. I put my pictures in a zip lock bag and wrote on the back of them our first and last names, year it was taken and location of picture. I stapled all papers together that were more then one page, and paperclipped papers together after that if they were corresponding with each other.

I maybe took it a little bit too far.....but, I wanted it to be perfect so that when it was received they could open it and know exactly where everything was located, I want to help eliminate confusion at all costs. :)

Only California and Vermont process I-129F petitions.

Hey guys, I registered on the uscis website so I can check my case status. I got my NOA1 on the 11th, the last updated was Aug. 12, not sure if I can consider it a touch or not, it was most likely just to process the payment, or forward it to CSC. Either way, pretty cool that we can check that on there!

So, I was thinking we should get to know each other! We'll all be around here for a while! How did everyone meet their fiances? Seems like a good way to get some discussion rolling. :)

Hey! You say you registered on the USCIS website? Do you mean you typed in your Reciept number? I'm confused! Can you check your case in more detail??

Widsy,

Yes, you can check it more in detail. If you go to the main page, and scroll down, past the bar where you enter your case number there is a "Services" section on the right side. It says "Sign up for case updates". You can create a user name and password and then sign up for email and text message alerts. There is a last updated date which shows you whether your case has been "touched" or not. :)

Thanks for that!

So that last updated date is what is known as a 'touch' on VJ? Always wondered that. :bonk:

Yeah, sometimes you'll get a message with a "touch" and sometimes you won't, you just know somebody is messing with your packet. :)

So, I was thinking we should get to know each other! We'll all be around here for a while! How did everyone meet their fiances? Seems like a good way to get some discussion rolling. :)

I met mine on a forum we both have been posting at since 2002, but I didn't really get to know him until 2006, and even then, not very well until 2009! We also were both on an art site (deviantart.com) and were friends on there for awhile. In 2009 we really started to get to know each other well and gave each other support in our lives. I met him in Feb 2010 and he came to live with me on a J1 visa in Sept 2010 :) It always amazes me how to world works, people get put into your life in weird ways and things just work out <3

Dating online since June 2009
Met Feb 23rd 2010
Lived together in US on J1 Visa since Sept 28th 2010
Got engaged on Sept 21st 2011 :)
He went back to Australia at the end of his J1 Visa on Sept 22nd 2011 :(
