Why is this such a touchy subject for you? I've read multiple other posts between you and other VJers. You don't want to believe that your fiancee being from the Philippines had anything to do with

And this is exactly why I was a bit shocked to be approved in 22 days. My fiancée lives in Singapore, her home is in northern Luzon well away from the region affected by that typhoon. I had my fingers

Hopeful, Perhaps you get flak over your posts because you post so often, therefore people see you more often. To be honest, at this point everything is TSC vs CSC. Combining that with the expedites

My fiance and I were excited to see that his ARN # was changed on July 19.. until we realized it means absolutely nothing other than they create an A-file for him. Now, we wait while our I-129F sits.. and sits... and sits... and grows old enough to claim it's own Social Security benefits at TSC... I wonder if they will reject us for our petition being a "charge of the state" if it has to start claiming SSI :(

Hello, fellow Julysters! We FedExed our I-129F package to Texas on July 15. FedEx told us it would arrive July 21 but our tracking number revealed it actually got there on July 18!

That's the day we officially got engaged, too. Here's my story about the day if you're interested (I'm a writer): http://ourgreatescape.ca/2014/07/a-most-perfect-escape/

We received our text message yesterday and (HAPPILY!) we've been routed to California. That could mean we'll be able to have a Christmas wedding (er ... trip to the courthouse).

My current stress is getting an RFE and getting all the paperwork together for the next steps.

Good luck to everyone!

Our I-129F was mailed on July 21, 2014. Per the registered mail return signature card and by USPS tracking they received it July 24, 2014.

Still have not received NOA1 or notification per email or text. And so the waiting begins.....We should go to CSC, so I am happy about that.

Good Luck and God Speed to everyone!!

We mailed our I-129F on the 18th, and it was confirmed delivered by USPS on the 21st. Still no text or otherwise notification.

If you used a personal check for the payment, you can check your bank account to see if things are moving along.

Hey there, looking forward to reading your story soon. By the way, being in Spokane you should actually be routed to the CSC (Calif. Serv. Ctr), rather than the Texas Serv Ctr, which is good news. Can you update your timeline to make sure Igor's list is accurate? Thank you!

I will update the timeline when my fiance receives the official NOA-1 in the mail. As mentioned, we have received only the text message indicating re-routing to CSC.

We used a money order and as of earlier today it had not yet been cashed. I know the wait for NOA2 will be so much longer, but for now it would just be nice to have an acknowledgement of receipt from them. Hopefully we'll hear something this week. :)

Just received a text and email notification with receipt number and confirmation that we are routed to CSC! Maybe now I can relax a little....haha!

Hope those who are waiting receive their NOA1 soon, it relieves a little stress.
