Congratulations to both of you!! I know how excited we were when we got our NOA2 text, it took a while to sink in, read the acceptance on the uscis website, over and over again, thinking we missed so

lol Thanks everyone. It's true! I have sat here congratulating many on their NOA2 and wondering why they were so excited. Suddenly there I am yelling loudly at 4.30 in the morning and waking my own

It's 4.35a.m in England and while on Skype with Greg we just got a text message. Checked on USCIS website and we finally have an RFE.

Yelled so loud woke one of my kids! oops! lol

So excited I feel sick, dizzy, trembling......WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

All Right, Oregon!!! Man, I am pumped to see people who seem almost like family getting what must be the most wonderful news of their lives :)

When you get here and when my family is here we'll have to meet up, like in Portland or something :)

Good luck the rest of the way

Congratulations Oregon Bound!! You definitely deserve it after such a long wait...you have been very patient and I'm so happy for you :) I'm surprised they got you the NOA2 only 3 days after they got their RFE reply, which is awesome! The just received my RFE reply yesterday so hopefully the NOA2 is coming soon.

Cheers kicking.gif

Congratulations to both of you!!

. At the same time get an affidavit of support and all supportive documents notarized and sent to you from your fiance, as well as a new letter of intent to marry from him, also notarized as these take a while to get and send.

What exactly does it mean by getting them notorised? That keeps cropping up but notorised by whom?

Brits: you do NOT need to notarized anything unless you stall around and don't bother to apply for your visa in London. The letter says IF you let your petition expire (4 months) then a new notarized letter of intent from the USC needs to be submitted to revalidate the expired petition. Otherwise you do not need a new letter of intent from either of you. As eager as you are, I don't think you will stall around and not bother to get on with the London part.

A reminder of the list of things to do for London: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/350185-london-2012-k1s-from-noa2-to-interview-thread/

Sorry, the police link in the list changed, but it is corrected a few posts down.
