VISA APPROVED!

After 257 days from NOA2 (including the 30+ maddening days lost because of "storage NOA2 facility mishap", we are approved for K1 Visa!

I wish to send so much thanks to all the helpful experts on this site, especically the China specific helpers such as Darnell, Big Dog, Ryan H, A&B, Pushbrk and others!

I will tell a little of our experience that really shows how this site is so beneficial in getting that Visa approved right now, and also more later in my review. My sweetie, Ying, is a very social and instantly likeable and approachable person. So I am not surprised that while standing in line outside the Consulate both days, we made friends with those that we talked to standing next to us in line, while she was waiting to go inside. What I can say is, of the five couples, including us, that we got to know a little during these two days, only two (us and one other) got the Visa approval. The others, while they will hopefully get their issues resoved, and get their Visas eventually, got "blue papers" because something wasn't done to satisfaction. We were the only ones of this group of five couples that used the Visa Journey website for help. One woman, who was already married, her husband did not do the I-134 form, so "blue paper." Another, while her Fiance sent her the I-134 last minute, only had it electronically on her computer, and with no supporting Docs, so "blue paper". Another, her Fiance only included a few e-mails as supporting evidence and apparently did not "front load" the initial I-129F very well, evidently, so "blue paper". Ying's interview lasted 5 to 7 minutes, the Visa Officer woman she got liked her instantly (of course!), and didn't even ask her questions to "grill her real knowledge" base of me. She complemented Ying on her english being very good, and Ying complemented the woman on her Chinese being very good, which gave the woman a big smile. They talked a little chit-chat, and when the woman got through typing whatever she had to type into the computer about our case, she turned to Ying and said "OK, congratulations, your Visa is approved, and you will get it in about two weeks". Ying, who had of course taken way too much evidence "stuff" into the interview, said, "but you don't want to see anything i have here?" (almost dissapointed), she showed my passport with the letter from me to the Visa officer folded insdide. The woman said, "Oh, so he is here, I thought so", but I don't need to see this."

This is what faithfully following the advice on Visa Journey results in!

Thanks again so much to everyone on this site for advice and support!

I will post a review shortly.

Thanks, and oops, a correction it's actually 257 days from NOA1, not NOA2.

Can I ask what was in the letter to the officer? That sounds like a good idea. I am going to go to Turkey and meet my Fiance there. I can not go to the interview but I really want them to know I am there. Thanks
