I've been feeling really anxious about our interview that's coming up. I'm super blessed to have found this website. This website is great source of encouragement and information. I just wanted thank everyone who takes the time to update your statuses whether it's good or bad. Your stories are extremely hopeful to others and it's much appreciated. I honestly don't think I've could have gone through this process if it wasn't for this site.

I want to give encouragement to the ones who's outcomes did not result in your favor, delayed does not mean denied. Continue to fight for your love ones and great things will come to pass...

Everyone who has an interview on the arisen I pray that God will give you great favor during your interview processes and grant you your approvals...

The ones who feel like their process is moving slow... Please stay encouraged, continue speak positive things in the atmosphere...

Please pray that my fiancée interview results are APPROVED and that everything will be okay. I will continue to pray for everyone as well...

Have a Great day my Fellow VJ...I wouldn't be this far without God and your wonderful testimonies.. :thumbs::thumbs:

I'm praying for you and everyone else as well. My fiancee and I are August filers so we're going through the most difficult part of the visa process. It's difficult trying to stay positive and upbeat when you're at a distance from someone you love and a government entity is deciding your fate. The good news for me and Kelly is we're going on a romantic trip to Panama next week. I thought it would be a good idea because we need to spend time alone together, away from family and friends. The PRR (privacy, romance & relaxation) is so important in this type of relationship. Good luck to you and your fiancee at your upcoming interview.

June 4, 2012 - Kelly and I had our first chats on Skype and Windows Live Messenger.

July 10 - 25, 2012 - We met in person and spent time together during my trip to Barranquilla, Colombia. At the end of the trip we decided to apply for the fiancee visa.

August 1, 2012 - I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancee sent via Fed Ex.

August 3, 2012 - Petition received at the USCIS Lock box in Lewisville, Texas.

August 7, 2012 - Received NOA 1 email and text message. Received the official NOA 1 letter in the mail a few days later. The petition was forwarded to the infamous Vermont Service Center.

March 6, 2012 - Received email from USCIS stating that our visa petition was approved and the NOA 2 letter was sent on March 5th.

I totally agree... I've been lucky enough to have been able to go see my fiancée every three -five months. So within the two years of us being together Ive seen him six times. However it's becoming harder being apart and Im ready for the process to be over so we can start out loves together. I wish you and yours much success and enjoy your vacation together...

Thank for the encouraging words. It makes this process easier.

Thank you and you're welcome. Kelly and I hit it off so well during the month of chatting before we met and during my 2 week trip to Colombia that we decided to start the fiancee visa process because the 8-12 months of waiting will give us time to continue getting to know each other and for me to visit her. So far that plan is working. I will try to visit every 3 months as well and even though we haven't been together as long as you and your fiance I'm also ready for this process to be over :) . Keep the faith.
