In VANCOUVER: Waiting waiting waiting.... for the 'NOA2 Letter of Approval' (I-129F/K1). whistling.gif

I understand that my fiance (the petitioner) will get this letter, and he's also 'signed-up' to receive 'email notifications' with the USCIS, regarding the 'status of our case'. Then what will I get? A notice from the US Consulate,? (in my case, Vancouver) Is that correct?

I know it'll be coming soon (end of April, beginning of May 2012)

Anyone care to share? (maybe scan a copy of this letter?)

Cheers!

It'll look like NOA1, just with something different written on it. Don't lose it becayse you need it to adjust status. After USCIS approves your case it makes a short stop at NVC and after NVC goes to Montreal. When it's approved at Montreal they will send out packet 3 which is a letter telling you to fill out some forms and mail them back. When they approve packet 3 they send out packet 4 which is a letter telling you to book an interview. However Montreal is known for dropping the ball and failing to send out pkt3 and pkt4 so a couple weeks after your petition is sent to NVC you should start calling department of state to inquire about your case, specifically asking if pkt3 has been "logged." As soon as it's logged you can mail off pkt3, you don't have to physically receive it in the mail, just know that you've been approved. Check out the K1 guide pinned at the top of the forums for more help with pkt3, and be sure to read the newer posts in it as some things were updated.

Oops, I didn't realize that the OP was from Vancouver. Disregard my advice about checking out the K1 for Montreal thread. Vancouver asks for different forms than Montreal.

Thank you for the examples. good.gif The NOA2 totally looks like the NOA1.

The other link has been very helpful too.smile.gif

Make sure you bring this with you to the interview as well. Apparently you need to show this along with part of the DS160...says right on the DS160.

I'll make a note not to forget itsmile.gif.

First we have to deal with the "Request for Evidence" notice. Just found out online today.

(Notice sent April 11th)

Thank you USCIS for the status update.

I will post a copy when we get ours. I-129F approved. We had a RFE. Once they got our reply-of-evidence, decision made in 6 days.
