OMG I HAVEN'T BEEN APPROVED in 190 days! So awesome! Life is good!

[Darnell 8,479]

I just want to let everyone know how happy I am that I haven't been approved yet in the TSC! Things are moving so quickly! What should I be preparing for the NVC stage because I am just so excited just waiting for my approval which will probably come some time in 2019. The other day I received some strong words of encouragement from a neighbor whose wife is from the Phillipines. He told me to hang on and be patient. He petioned for a K1 visa for his wife on July 1, 2014. He later invited me to their wedding in NY on July 2, 2014. It was incredible. I was like: "that was fast! I need to relax!"

So yeah, here I am, typing on VJ. I have been on hold for about a week waiting to speak to a Tier 2 officer. Trying to dream and wait for someone to answer the phone is pretty tricky!

Good luck VJer's. I am just loving life here in the TSC!

nvc? For a k-1? Is no prep work to do, only 3 data points to collect.

please study the k-1 flowchart, in the guides section, from a pc, or i call yer Mum, complain to her.

You could fill in your timeline to help folks follow your journey and get a grasp of the anticipated wait times.

Why? My timeline is my own business.

Why? My timeline is my own business.

Because that's what VJers do, we help each other. If you won't offer to help, then don't expect much in return.

ascertainLovE should complete their timeline too!

I thought this was a satirical thread, not a fill out your timeline thread. I'm out. Enjoy looking at the timeline I posted, it makes me very happy that couple will be together in less time than I spent at TSC. They must be over the moon. US Immigration is a BREEZE people, a f-ing BREEZE.

Yep, USCIS is a walk in the park. You are preaching to the choir.

For our part, we have been doing the "USCIS breeze" since October 2011. Our latest ongoing USCIS breeze is now at around 200 days, and still waiting.... Woo hoo, we are just loving it....

(Just check out our timeline. )

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Probably closer to 2021, if this DACA/DAPA nonsense get a-rollin' again.

The fact that things are taking so long means USCIS really values my application and are doing their utmost to ensure everything goes smoothly. If my petition were to fly by in 9 days, for example, I would actually be more worried about my fiance coming here. I mean, I know her well, but not enough, so it helps that some non-descript, backoffice clerk is really scrutinizing my fiance. It is sort of like insurance in case my fiance turns out to be someone that really doesn't belong in the United States let alone with me!

Oh, I suspect that many of the folks in this forum: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/127-effects-of-major-family-changes-on-immigration-benefits/ wished that some sort of indemnification was actually included in the USCIS "full meal deal"....

We are just another family lovin' our life in USCIS limbo......

it is a satirical thread. Us old gnobbers use satire to nudge folk into getting onto a pc and really using the site.

imo, there is not enough timelines filled out these last 18 months, and folk confuse signature block area with official vj timelime area.

so, don't be 'out' as there is scads more ripping and roaring, in a satiral fashion, to do! I invite you keep with it!
