October 2013 Filers

[Mari26 19]

Hey!

We got our NOA1 on Nov 1st!

I have been seeing some crazy processing times, probably because of the shutdown. I am wondering if processing times will go back to normal now, or if they will even go slower. I do wish they'd keep up with the 20-40 days between NOA1 and NOA2 (I know it's highly unlikely). The wait just seems unbearable! Having so many breakdowns because of all the stress!

Well, grats to all of you who have already gotten your NOA2s!

I'll be looking forward to keep up with you all!

Oh! And if anyone has some advice to cope, I'd be grateful!

Hi Everyone.

We are about to send in our Petition. What did everybody use for their proof of meeting in person within the 2 years of filing?

I sent photographs, copies of the stamps in our passports, and utility bills that show that we share a common address.

@ Phred: Thanks for your advice.

We just sent our I-129F out on Oct. 30th now i am a little nervous and hoping all goes well for all of us.

Hopefully this is a GOOD sign!

Cheers

I guess I can post here too!

sent ours off on October 30th, USPS said delivered on Nov 1st, so now were waiting for NOA1!

I'm assuming USCIS don't process on the weekends?

Hopefully we will get the email by Friday! I also started a Nov 2013 filers thread as I kind of fit in that topic and this once, haha ^^

Hi Everyone!!

Nice to meet all of you!! I am an October filer. I am filing for my fiancee who lives in India.

Our I-129F was sent the 1st week of Oct and our NOA 1 was dated 10/15/13. My fiancee was assigned an A# on 10/29/13. I know that this can be a long process, but I am hoping and praying that this will not be drawn out for any of us!!

I was so excited when he got an A# assigned and then I realized that it is not necessarily indicative of an NOA 2.

I look forward to getting to know you all!! All the best friends!!

I better reask this since I made a mistake! I sent out the I-129F package on October 29th, do ya guys know how long it usually takes to get the NOA1? I tracked the package and they received it on Oct 31st but I still don't have anything back!

Hi! Welcome!

Well, if you filled the G-1145 form, you usually get an e-notification within 3-4 business days (since the day it arrives to the P.O Box not since you send it). And then you get the hard copy arround 7-10 days after that.

If you didn't send the G-1145 form, you will only get the hard copy and it's usually between 10-14 days since the day it arrived to the P.O. Box.

We sent our I-129f package on Oct 28th, we got our e-notification on Nov 1st and we still have not received the hard copy.

Hope I helped.

hey! me and my fiance's is the same as yours almost, just a day later on both dates xD we sent ours October 30th and tracking said it got there Nov 1st ^^ (so we're october and november filers haha!) we haven't gotten an NOA1 yet either, but its good news that they've cashed your check!

So if it all goes right, we should be getting ours a day after yours (or maybe the same day!)

good luck! hoping it arrives soon ^^
