January I-129F filers

Definitely. I think CSC is back on track. They probably assigned more adjudicators to the K1s. VSC may have done the opposite and directed adjudicators to other Visas now since this time of year the number of K1 petitions submitted decreases...

I know how frustrating waiting can be, but to be honest, I have planned for things to happen at a 'realistic' pace and hope to leave for the US in September. I ordered my wedding dress almost three weeks ago and they have given me a 20-week waiting period for it to be made and arrive in the UK. That means I need to be here in early July to get it altered and packed, etc. I'm also hoping to get a job pretty soon (spending 6 months out of 12 in the US last year really messed up the job situation!) because I need the money for rent and wedding things. Also, my Matron of Honour is having her first baby which is due the first week in September!

So even though I check the USCIS daily and hope for an NOA2 soon (so I can start making some concrete plans) I am pretty happy to wait until May or June for it. My hope is that everyone gets their NOA2 at the right time for them and that they will be united with their fiance(e)s well before the year is up.

Oh, and I'm 50 days post NOA1 today!

Very true!I check it everyday too but I still have some things I need to take care of...my wish is to be approved around May so I could get my visa by the end of July hopefully, that's when my fiance has his birthday and it would be the best birthday present ever! I am also trying to avoid reading people's post complaining about having to wait 6-7 months for just NOA2 as everyone case is different and there is no point in getting paranoid. I just try to be busy and plan but patiently wait as there is nothing more we can do

44 days since NOA1!!!

How are you doing my dear January filers?Still hanging in there? It's a little over 2 months now so it can happen anytime now (looking at some CSC filers there were already January/February approvals!!!). The weather is lovely outside so it should give us all a little kick ! I have a weird feeling we start getting approvals in April!!!Woman's intuition?

[ukcharlotte 4]

I'm doing well thanks! I have just managed to find a job that should cover me from next week until the big move! I am so pleased that I can now start saving more towards the wedding/AOS! And the weather here in England is BEAUTIFUL! I still can't believe that we are having such wonderful weather and that it is only March!

I agree, I think we'll start seeing a few January approvals later in April. My birthday is in May, however, and an NOA2 would be a lovely birthday present if I miss the April NOA2s!

Yeah Ireland is very generous to us as well! beautiful sunny days and 15+ degrees! It will probably be this week only and then back to normal but fingers crossed for it to stay this way until we are approved!

That would be a lovely b day present!!!Hope you'll get it by then

I really hope to see some April approvals for us. I'm very excited and can't wait to see them come in! I wish you and everybody else fast approvals.

I wish I could as optimistic as some of you on receiving the NOA2 next month! The idea of having my honey here by the summer would be great.

I'm still badly hoping to surprise my fiance for his birthday, that's July 11th. I'm not greedy, I just wish I had my visa by then

Hey everyone!!! I am a January filer too!!! I totally agree, April it will be!!!!!! ????

My fiancé's birthday is August 11 and he would love to be in the US to celebrate it here, but we're both of the "eh, we'll see what happens" frame of mind.

Thanks for asking! I am still trying to figure out all the ins and outs of this site. But it is nice to have people to turn to. I check the Vermont timelines daily like a crazy person! I notice some people get the NOA2 very fast! Seems random. I keep telling my fiance I have a good feeling about April. Lets hope I am right for us and for all of you too!

oh yeah we are sort of in the same state of mind but there's still a hope somewhere deep inside!

Hi! Let's not keep our hopes up but yes it will! haha
