K1 petition NOA2 yay! Dont be afraid to keep calling USCIS! I have called several times, Because my case # "was not valid" on the USCIS website OR their phone menu... Well, 2-3 weeks ago they tell me my petition "has no red flags" and was just waiting for an officer to actually place the approval on it.......I was surprised to hear him tell me so much, but did not want to get my hopes up anyway..........

I called yesterday, and they tell me it has been approved, and mailed out, have not received it in the mail, btw, I did not sign up for email alerts either.......but SOOO glad i kept calling........... :D I am waiting to update my timeline until I have the actual date on the paper...

WHAT NUMBER YOU USE FOR CALL USCIS???????????????

My fiancee tried to call this number "1-800-375-5283" but she told me she could not talk to anyone!

But there are several menus but could not reach a real person "

@Leonardo, I think thats the number i called...the same number on the NOA1.........cant imagine why no one would talk to you, you of course have to go through the phone menu, try skipping through it as if you do not know your case number, you will reach someone.

One reason i did not sign up for text/email alerts is because i was in costa rica at the time, and had none of them available......at least none that i could ever rely on....lol

But the mystery is that my fiancee could not really talk to anyone! She said she was about 10 minutes just going through the menu and found nothing!

What options do you use? you said you called several times ... maybe you remember something!

Its TOOO IMPORTANT!

Thank you!

I want to say because of this post I decided to call USCIS again and they told me the same thing they told you 2-3 weeks ago today. Even though she didnt say approval she said he got assigned an alien number and that is usual an indicator for an approval. You gave me the push to call and now I have a glimmer of hope that my NOA2 may be around the corner CONGRATS TO YOU!

thanks everyone! yeah i was surprised, USCIS were very nice, and helpful, AND took time to answer my questions, and explain a little bit..........too bad they take 5 months to give NOA2s!!!!!!! lol.........

@Leonardo, I know i pressed 1 for english, 1 for case status info, and another number for "if you forgot, or cannot find your receipt number" they then answered very quickly from there , the officer introduced himself asked me for my receipt number, which i gave them, they then tell me they cannot find my number, they asked me a few questions, my DOB, etc. then pass me to another officer, who verifies I am who i am again, and finds my case(on whatever system that is ACTUALLY accurate) and told me what he knew was happening with us.........same thing happened all three times........
