Amarillo, I sent mine about the same time as you and I am from Cleveland. I am hoping that mine gets sent to CSC as well!! Hoping that maybe they are sending Ohio apps to Cali. My fingers are crossed

I received the email on the same day, December 4th and got TSC and haven't gotten the letter yet. I think we are right in that 7-10 business days time frame though. I am not sure Saturday for U.S. mai

we got our packet 3 in the mail yesterday and mailed it out today.

Mailed back:

DS160 confirmation page

checklist

application statement form

It's still confusing that the checklist says the i134 affidavit of support needs to be notorized but the uscis instructions specifically says it doesn't need to be.

Contact your consulate and ask them, or try to ask someone from Malaysia (the regional forum)!

I think usually it doesn't need to be notarized.

23 December 2014 I-129F SENT

29 December 2014 NOA1

12 January 2015 NOA2

29 January 2015 NVC CASE NUMBER ASSIGNED

yeah on the regional forum it looks like people just got it notorized just in case since the packet 3 checklist specifically says a notorized original i134 is needed. Better safe then sorry

Congrats to you. Im glad others are doing well. I ended up waiting in medical limbo while we wait fornthe sputum test. Im bummed because she was supposed to fly here on the 10th but now we have to wait two more months. We know she doesn't have TB so it's all just lost time. Seeing others get approved is really nice. I like it. I pray for your lives to be happy and I'll see you on the AOS threads soon. :)

We are still waiting for SSS ID so that my love can even apply for her passport. This is insane. She applied for SSS ID in October and we are told wait 30 days, wait 2 months, wait a few weeks, be patient. Our NOA2 expires in May. I'm praying every day her SSS shows up so we can apply for a passport in Manila (rush, 7 day) and then schedule medical, interview etc. I'm scared our NOA may expire before we finish the process :(
