Greenbaum can you also help me of what exactly the documents i need to bring to the interview for K1? Thanks!

Everything you need is in the Embassy letter. http://photos.state.gov/libraries/manila/1178798/feb2015/K1-K2%20Applicant%20Interview%20Preparation%20Instructions%20-%20English%20_February%202015_.pdf

Also keep in mind that the CENOMAR and NBI cannot be older then six months at time of interview. So if your CENOMAR and NBI will be older, then get new ones.

Is it normal that we dont get any email from NVC that our case is in transit? I checked our case and it says "IN TRANSIT". But we dont get an emails from NVC that its already in transit. We signed up for email notifications amd text but we didnt get. Including NOA2 approval, no email notifications and text thats its approved.

It was the same for me, I received no notification that it Arrived at the NVC, or that it was In Transit to the Embassy, or that it was at the Embassy, I had to check the site each time to find out. All Updates I received from USCIS were presented by email, and text.

I am not sure about the NVC if they should send us the status of our case by post. But I am sure that they should at least update us by e-mail or text. At least you are getting a updates from them and unfortunately me and my fiancé (petitioner) do not get any text or e-mail notifications from NVC about our case. I had to call them to get our nvc case number and I have to check time to time our case status in their website and now it's "IN TRANSIT". Did you get your Approved NOA2 hard copy?

Correct, I got notifications while it was with USCIS, but once it transitioned to the NVC the only updates I got were the ones I manually found when searching our NVC Case number on the CEAC website. Yes I did receive my NOA2 hard copy. It arrived about a week after the electronic notifications. Our case is now with the Embassy in China, but I have received no updates since NOA2. I also had to call the NVC for my case number so I could check the status on the website.

Oh That's good news God bless on your interview (I am sure, it will be soon!) Until now we did not get the NOA2 hardcopy and when my fiancé called USCIS, they told him to wait for one month before they will send again the lost NOA2 hardcopy. I also, sent an e-mail to NVC that we never get any updates about our case whether it's still under processing or sent to USEM but the good thing is we can track our case online

Do the best you can do with your dates. That's always been a mistake of mine that I never really kept track of dates. Of course, no one told me to do so, and therein lies the problem. I too tried to piece together "history" in my life and sometimes came up with only a guesstamation. Do the best you can.

Mr. Greenbaum,

While still anxiously waiting for our NOA2, my fiance discovered a mistake in our application

She discovered that the 1 of the letter in the street name is wrong (i.e.) 1234 To Minh (is the correct) but instead it's 1234 To Ninh. the N instead of the M.

The reason was her ID and driver license was incorrect ( 1234 To Ninh) but on birth certificate and everything else is 1234 To Minh. I sent mail using 1234 To Ninh and she get is without delay or problem, I also don't think their is a address 1234 To Ninh any where in her city. Do you think is make a lot of different when they review and do background check for the application?

What should i do now, call up USCIS and make that correction NOW, which can push my application reviewing time longer (i assume because of infomation change )

Wait for NOA2, or RFE (hope fully not)?

If I received the NOA2 should I wait and call NVC to make correction their, or wait until it arrive at the embassy and make correction? What do you think best?

Thank you for your input

Hi everyone,

Anyone with a NOA 1 date of 12/22/15 or similar for Dominican Republic still waiting for a NOA 2 ?

[fathom500 1]

Thanks Greenbaum!

I still haven't receive my NVC Letter

- when should I expect this to be delivered to me and how many days should I wait?

- do you have NVC Number in Manila so I can follow-up the status of my letter?

I've read that this is required during the interview

Thank you Greenbaum

We got our letter from NVC about a week after NOA2. However for some reason they used her (previous) married name as the "Main applicant". Not sure why they did that. All the other letters we received from USCIS have her maiden name which is what we used to file the petition. When I callled NVC to get the case numbers I used her maiden name for the security questions. We only used her married name as "Other name used" on the G325a.

Lawyer says not to worry. probably a mistake on the part of NVC when they produced the letter. He said the consulate handling processing would reference the petition, her passport & birth certificate.

As I said the NOA2 hard copy approval has her maiden name as we expected. So I will accept his advice about it.

I am running out of patience as well. Good thing I am going to DR on Saturday. Maybe spending valentine's day with him might give me some more patience.
