Hi everyone! I am also one of the april filers! I can't wait for September/October.. i did get my tax transcripts already. I might be sending my fiance's a copy of my 129f packet. Do you know if i can use USPS for that since its not urgent? will it reach the Philippines and not get lost? Thanks for the input! Lets all support each other.. Good luck to us.. Buzz us f you get your NOA 2!

Aloha! I guess USPS is good. it will not be lost.. but if the price is the same as Fed ex then better use fed ex... Hope we will get our NOA2 next month so we will be together with our love ones this september.. The waiting is so terrible already.. Cant wait to be with my baby..:-)

Good Luck to Us!!

Hi Shawen,

Not sure yet how this forum works as far as posting so I apologize if I am doing it wrong. My fiancee is from Dipolog and when we receive our NAO2 she will be going to Manila. Once in Manila it would be great if she knew someone who is also getting her visa and then coming to the U.S. So she is not alone.

Contact me directly if you can and I will do the same.

Thanks.

I send my fiancee our I-129F packet along with supporting documentation via USPS. She did receive it but it took 6 weeks to reach her on Leyte. USPS will track your packet only within the US. My recomendation is to use a service that can track door to door.

Best of luck to you and the rest of us April filers!!!

NOA1 on 4/17/12. California service center/Philippines. Anyone else have their NOA1 around our time of 4/17/12 that is also Philippines? Would like to find others and maybe my fiancee can meet others when in Manila for her medical exam and interview.

Looks like to me from studying the timelines that approvals are running somewhere between 4 and 5 months for the Philippines.

Yes 4/19 but we're Vermont Service Center. I'll point my better half here.

HELLO All,

This is my first time here and thanks a ton to VJ community here for all the Insights. I got my NOA1 on 4/17/2012.....Hoping for the best...

Welcome and good luck! The VJ community is indeed a wonderful resource. Keep us posted on the progress. My NOA1 receipt date is 4/17 so we might be close together in the process.

Our NOA1 is dated 4/17/12, but we are with Vermont. We'll keep you posted on the progress though when the time comes. I come by here all the time.

Hi! oh really? i was scared that it might get lost. How much did you have to pay? i wanna send some papers right now so if i have to send the updated forms, it won't be so heavy to be so expensive. thanks!

Check out Igor's timeline list for CSC :

They have actually started approving some March filers for the I-129ers. Now this is encouraging and exciting as all get out! This should put some of us earlier April filers within 30 days for NOA2.

I don't wanna get my hopes up but...............

Hello all April filers..... Isn't it a good feeling to see March petitions being processed!! And feels good to see "our thread" near the top of this forum. Gives you the feeling that we are all getting closer. FYI.....Took a small box to UPS to send to my fiancee in Thailand, it is our one year anniversary, that weighed less than 4lbs. UPS ground was the cheapest way to send it................ $163....... from Cincinnati! Ended up using the post office and priority mail......... $33.......... Now I just hope it gets there. Good luck to all.

Wow, and I thought mine was bad at $20 for <4 lbs to Northern Ireland

I'm a late April filer, so hopefully when y'all get NOA2s, the people who decided to wait til the end of April will finally have hope!

It's nice to see the VSC moving again, even if they are backlogged.

I feel like my tax money is being wasted

Buuut... we shouldn't have too much longer to wait! Good luck to everyone!
