So we filed April 13th, and we got accepted as of 3 days ago. Now, the NoA2 is in the mail, should my fiance (who lives in Poland) be expecting to get something in the mail? If not yet, then at what point will SHE be contacted throughout this process?

Thanks in advance.

Dont worry they will not mail her anything regarding the noa2 petition approval, she will be contacted after NVC sent your petition to Embassy and they have a case number for you. Good luck

Another question; is the interview that's coming up for her (in poland) or for me, here in the US, or is there one for both of us in our respective countries?

The visa interview is for her. In general, it's encouraged (and, in some places, crucial) that the petitioner be on the consular premises when the interview is to be conducted. Click the links (atop every VJ page) called "Embassy Info" and "Reviews: Embassy" to learn whether your presence as the petitioner is unnecessary, recommended, or integral.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

When my wife had her interview in Warsaw she didn't have any problems and I wasn't there with her at the time. You don't have to go if you don't want to. I'm sure she would like the support and the company but it's not necessary. Where is from in Poland? My wife is there right now and and will be coming back on Monday Nov 5th. I got back in October, it was really nice but it's getting cold there now. We live in CA and the change in temperature is drastic. My wife won't believe how warm it has been while she has been away. Good luck on her interview, I'm sure she won't have any problems.
