Thanks for the links Greenbaum. They are very helpful. Ive already checked out the latin america subforum. Im pretty sure everyone gets the letter from the nvc that i was referring to though. Thats not from the consulate but from the nvc before it gets sent to the consulate.

It will take 7 - 10 days business for NVC to receive your file from USCIS after you receive the NOA2, then another 2 - 5 business days for NVC to get your file in there system and get the case # from

Our I-129F packet was mailed out on Sept. 29th and received today Oct. 1st. I guess that technically makes me an October filer? Thanks for opening this group. My fiance' and I met online via Faceb

Go to http://travel.state....udadJuarez.pdf as this is your bible needed to complete and receive your visa. The required documents are included and use the this website as a check list. Once you have completed or gathered the required documents you'll be ready for your interview.

Last but not least, READ the pages on the US Embassy website for you country so that you are up to speed.

http://ciudadjuarez.usconsulate.gov/

One last place to check for information would be the VJ Wiki found here: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Special:AllPages

Thanks!!!

Got the info already. Our case should be already in Ciudad Juarez!! :)

I'm confused.. Green,Am I doing it right? My case# status is "Ready" Date created was 11/30/2015 and Date updated was 12/03/2015. Does this mean the Embassy in the Philippines already received it? We already paid the visa fee and scheduled the Interview using the online method and its scheduled on Dec 23,2015. All the paperworks are ready she just needs to get the Medical done on Dec 10 and 11.

Does this sound right?

I have a question. I told my fiancee to go for her medical on the 3rd of dec because she might have her monthly cycle on the 2nd week of dec. her interview will be on the 23 and her noa2 will expire on march 2nd. My question is, does her visa still gonna be good if she fly on the 2nd of feb?

My Fiancée is scheduled for interview on the 23 as well! Might be a chance they both get the same flight! ^_^

Likewise. Also with the LAX POE. If she gets the visa on Jan I'll prolly fly her out ASAP..

Did your Fiancée showed the screen shot of her case to st lukes and copy of receipt mrv for verification?

Oh #######! Was I supposed to wait for that letter before I scheduled the interview? I need to double check on Greenbaum's link when I get home I swear I saw something regarding that and that it's cool for my Fiancée to just screen shot the status of her case online.

She can use the screen shot if you dont have the letter with mnl number yet. You should be able to get the letter frm nvc in the mail this wk or maybe nxt wk.

Still no word on NOA2 :( I'll probably get a RFE since it is taking so "long" (compared to others at CSC hahaha)
but to my knowledge we filled everything out correctly, added proof that we have met in the past 2 years and thought we have a pretty easy case without previous marriages, no criminal records, etc...

Hoping I get something today!!!!

Got the RFE notification yest 12/3. finally I heard something. My application is pretty simple as well but I think I know why. My itenarary did not show the year we met, and I did not add passport stamps so I am guessing that's the problem, though I added just about everything else including pics with the year on it.

It should be in my mailbox soon but not for sure what the RFE is.

Best wishes and i hope you get a reply soon. I know it's coming!

Haven't heard anything from USCIS too. It's been 43 days from NOA1.

Makes me frustrated too. We tripled check everything, plus. I wonder why our cases take so long.

Are they for further review? Or just dumped on the table? We don't know.... Grrr.

All we can do is patient. Let's hope we hear some good news before the holidays...

Hoping our cases will move as well. Best of luck!

I recive my rfe on 17 november , i recive the gard copy with the list of the things that they need from me on 21 november ( my fiance forgot to put an x in a box , the File with question AND i forgot to put a letter of intend) AND on 30 november we send the rfe answer to them, AND they Recived on 1 December( my status changed in " rfe was Recived ") Now we wait the answer. Actually since we recive the notification of RFE we review the file that we sent initially and straight away we knew that is about that letter . U should review your file again at least to know what to expect. I hope it helps u this information , now we wait to see what they decide. Good luck
