Hello All! Couple of questions please!!

1. We received our NOA1 at the Texas Service Center on 12/03/2013. On 12/13/2013, the "Alien Registration Number" was changed when I checked the USCIS website. We have still not received NOA2. When can anyone suggest I start inquiring over the phone? Should we be concerned?

2. Assuming I had to use just assets (currently unemployed, but searching for a job), what is the amount needed assuming just me and my fiance? Is it 3X or 5X the 125% minimum poverty guidelines?

3. I have not claimed any unemployment insurance benefits so far. Do you think this would be wise to do or not considering the petition for my fiance?

This site is great!! Thanks for everyone's input!

1. They will only entertain you once you have passed the estimated processsing times, currently at the 5 months mark. If by 13 May 2014 you still haven't received your NOA2, you can ask to speak to a Tier 2 officer and request an expedite.

2. 3x is for spouses, 5x is for everyone else. Fiances are future spouses, so some COs might be more lenient and allow 3x, some might be stricter and look for at least 5x. It is up to the CO's discretion.

3. You can claim unemployment. You can also list it on the I-134 as income but it may not be counted in whole as it is only a temporary source of income.

Flying to Seattle on 6 May 2014!
