At last! my fiance got our NOA1 in the snail mail today - we posted our forms to nebraska on 6th march, it said they received it in california on 14th march and posted the NOA1 on 19th march, so a whopping 18 day wait just to get an NOA1, hmm that's about the same length of time it takes a Vermont filer to get their NOA2! ha ha

Oh, we still didn't get our NOA2, and there are others who are still waiting. I wish! :P For 18 days we should have got it today as we sent it on March 6 lol

We send everything on 20 Mar and still didn't get reciept confirmation from CSC (via TSC, and TSC confirmed that they recieved it), so I guess if we still didn't get reciept confirmation from CSC after 1 week so we will not see our NOA-1 till May? :o

We are very upset :unsure:

From the experience of previous months' filers to TSC, the packet may take up to 3 weeks to get transferred and accepted at CSC. I guess they mail it via Moscow! :)

So Noa1 probably won't come until April and that would automatically move you and me to April filers list. But no reason to get upset! Why hurry indeed, your life is just put on hold for a few months, no big deal. :ranting:

Finally, 6 days after being approved, I receive the hard copy of the NOA2 in the mail today. Can't begin to tell you how happy we both are. Of course this is just the beginning but at least we know the ball is rolling.

A few questions and some guidance needed from those who are ahead of me in this. Now that I have received the NOA2, what do I do? Do I stay put and wait for correspondence from NVC? In the Step-by-Step guide here in VJ.com, there is a list of things I need to do upon receipt of the NOA2. Do I have to do them now or once the application has reached the consulate, which in my case is Australia.

Second question, #2 in the guide talks about sending originals of documentary proof - I had sent copies of my passport, naturalization certificate, etc. Do I need to send those originals? Or is this referring to something specific?

The letter mentioned in #3 of the guide, I presume it would be the same as the statement of intent that I had submitted or somewhat different. Do we have any examples of them here?

Lastly, at what stage do I send the I-134 and the necessary documentation?

Any and all help you can offer me will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all in advance.

Luccky you!! :thumbs: Well done!

Oh well, sometmes I can't understand American Government system. Why Cervice centres work different. For example we send everything on 20 Mar, but still didn't recieve reciept confirmation from CSC!!!

Why VSC can work fast when CSC work so slow???

Anyway my congratulations to you!!
