noa1- june 5th expect a 6 month wait to noa2. Expect another 3 month wait to interview in Bangkok. I like reading other people's hopes dreams and aspirations online here. I know it's frustrating, but I see it also as the universe's test of our love. My buddhist fiancee takes it with a cool calm that I can't. There's a lesson in this for all of us, and I know when I get her home to Texas I will surely be a very grateful man with a lot of gratitude.

I agree. Stressing and being negative won't speed up the process but being positive and patient can make the time pass more smoothly. I just got back from a wonderful vacation with my fiancé and he just reassured me that these few months apart can't even compare to the lifetime we are going to be spending together. We will look back on this chapter in our journey and it will seem just like a blimp in time.

I hope for an NOA2 for October, and that's being very optimistic, but I'm also preparing for a baby due this Fall so having a timeframe for when I could expect my fiancé would be extremely helpful. Its as though I am in the process of preparing for two people to join my life and don't know when to expect either of them lol

The total amount of days from the date I mailed in our K1 Visa application to the day my fiancé stepped foot into the USA:

1 year, 3 months and 8 days.

The amount of days from the date we mailed in our AOS to the date everything was approved (after 3 RFEs):

7 months & 5 days

Which makes our journey a total of:

2 years, 3 months, and 8 days


(L)"I remember the days I prayed for everything I have now." (L)

No stressing we can't do that. It will ruin us. This is so time consuming and so stressful. We should make it as easy as possible for ourself.

Congrats on the baby! That's awesome!

Glad you got to see the fiancé. Must be great. ?

I can't wait to see my man again. Few more months ??

I think it's funny that everyone has such a different time frame in mind. One says December other October. Personally I think it's somewhere in November. Although I would be very very happy with an earlier noa2.

AverysMom I am also a June filer that was assigned TSC and I'm also expecting and due this October! It does make things more complicated and I don't know if we will have our baby while he is here but I am hoping I can have the K1 by February. Baby would be 3-4 months old...

I have been checking Igor's list and this forum, where did everyone see the June approval? I'm just looking for as much info as possible. I wish TSC would update their processing times more often.

No, I'm not saying they're starting on June. I saw a couple on Igor's List, listed that was not from the Philippines nor had they stated that they were transferred to California, approved on August 26 I think it was. The couple's beneficiary was from China. I can only hope that this means that they will start working on June this week, but since we nor I have seen any other TSC June approvals, it may just be an expedited case. . .

OK, I just answered my own question. This is what I found according to the list that showed all Texas June Filers that were not trasfered:

134 NOA2's had been received by June filers in the Texas service center that were not transferred:

24 were from the Philippines

1 was from Germany

1 was from China

1 was from Canada

Most of the ones from the Philippines were in 6 weeks or less. I find that really strange that it could be so one-sided but maybe because there are so many filers from the Philippines? It makes me happy to see that June is moving and getting approved. I even came across someone who filed in July at TSC, not transferred, who has been approved. I am also starting to think that people are not updating their timelines correctly. Well, I hope we are all approved soon and in the best way for all of our situations!

A little "off topic" here but I am the beneficiary and I moved recently (after filing). I looked it up and I found ways to change the petitioner's address but never the beneficiary. Is there any way I can do it? Of course, we only got NOA1 so far, so that's where our process stands... Thanks everyone!

Yesterday was a holiday in the US.

The total amount of days from the date I mailed in our K1 Visa application to the day my fiancé stepped foot into the USA:

1 year, 3 months and 8 days.

The amount of days from the date we mailed in our AOS to the date everything was approved (after 3 RFEs):

7 months & 5 days

Which makes our journey a total of:

2 years, 3 months, and 8 days
