I am (hopefully) sending mine in Monday the 12th. I was trying for earlier but....well you know how that goes. thanks for all the info I've seen here, come to find out my I-129F form will expire before it arrives in Vermont, so I have to print out another one...and a bunch of other stuff too. I realized in my 1am haze of paperwork, I wrote my address in the states incorrectly!!! It's pretty bad when you can't remember your own address. But on the bright side, I am down here in Grenada with my Fiance while we are filing so I have him at my disposal to sign things every time I screw them up.

I guess I'll be joining the February club!

Lot's of luck to all the rest of you, and my thoughts are with those of you who have to wait this out apart from eachother.

Go Feb Filers!

I sent ours out jan 31st to the Texas Service Center. Of course they only accepted delivery at 5 AM the day after it was supposed to be there. The check got cashed and got a NOA1 on the 7th but from California.

Now I got to wait almost 60 days+ instead of 40 :(.

We were going the DCF route in NZ when the State Dept shut that down. At least the processing on their end got started so we may get a faster turn around.

I hope all the forms are ok :(

11-22-06 Got engaged

01-25-07 Found DCF out

01-29-07 Sent I129F to Texas

02-02-07 I129F received at TSC

05-21-07 Recieved NVC Notice -- no NOA2

why didn't you save it to your computer and use adobe to type it out?

because my fiance wrote his address in arabic on the second page and there's no way i could write it out myself if i printed out the new one.

the old form is acceptable until feb 18th.

If you haven't sent it yet, email the new form to your fiance, have him type his name in arabic and save it, email it back to you, and then you complete the rest and print it. Worth a shot anyway.
