Hi everyone - I'm sure this question has been asked & answered a hundred times, but I can't seem to find it here. We got the NOA2 today & one of the required bits of info is "date of proposed travel" - what are acceptable answers? Is a month & year (i.e. September 2012) sufficient? Can we write "to be determined" or "unknown"?

I can't imagine they'd expect a specific date........

thanks!

I think month and date is ok, or maybe a 2 week range? I gave them a specific date, but also added a window of 2 weeks prior up until the target date.

btw... congrats on getting your NOA2 :)

Our Story:

Apr '06 - We met in Houston, TX when he was on a business trip

Jul '06 - I went to Germany to visit him at his invitation

Oct '06 - He came back to Houston, TX to visit me and ask my parents for my hand in marriage

Jan '07 - I moved to Germany

May '07 - We got married <3

Jun '08 - Our little munchkin was born <3 <3

4 years later we decide we want to move to the US.....

20 Jun 12 - We went to the Frankfurt Embassy and submitted my I-130 with all accompanying paperwork at window 40. It was looked over immediately and I was sent to pay the fee at window 23. I took the receipt of payment back to window 40 and was given the DS-230 form for Hubby to fill out. Lucky for us, I already had one finished for him. We turned in the DS-230 at window 22 and received our case number and the IV Document Checklist.

Presently, Hubby is back in his native country getting his police report and birth certificate. Upon return, he will update his vac/immunizations and do his Medical Examination. We are waiting for I-864 joint sponsor paperwork to be returned to us, and then we can send everything in with a Request for Interview. We have a target date of mid October to establish residence in the US.

Thanks, DK. 86 days of testing my patience, but finally it arrived :) Monday I would have been calling them!

I actually already have a flight book (late August) & we decided not to book my husband's, as we didn't know when it would all fall in place. But based on what you just mentioned, I think we'll do that - we'd both love for him to come in September, so that's what we'll write!
