I sent in my K-1 applications yesterday and it'll get to the TX lock box some time today. I'm super excited and hope that all goes well for us. Now, I'll be in the waiting process just like most of you whom are my predecessors. Thanks for the advices and help I received from yall previously and I will also be asking more questions in the near future as well. Now, it's just the "slow" waiting process and hopefully we'll be able to be together by the end of this year.."Crossing fingers" :DDD

thank you so much!!!! haha I just checked my package confirmation and it seems like they sent it there this morning at 11am to the Lewisville, TX Lockbox but no one was there. Has anybody ever experienced that and would that be a problem???

First of all, that is great news that you took the plunge and have started on your visa journey.

Don't worry about "the delivery and no one there" scenario. Mine arrived at 8 PM and surprise no body is there to sign for it. :blink: After all, they are government workers that don't work late, or on weekends, or on holidays, etc. :yes: It will be picked up and signed for the next normal business day. There have been numerous threads on this issue. Become acquainted with the site's custom Google search function, it can be your friend.

For now, just wait for your I-797c notice (NOA1), and then the patience-building session commences. :clock:

Good luck on your visa journey.
