We got our NOA 2 a week ago, this Monday it came on the mail and we were so excited when looking at the actual letter.

We are waiting for the NVC case number, we´ve read it´s usually 2-3 weeks. We want to get ahead in the meantime to get all the documents for the interview to speed things up a little bit. We are gathering the form i-134, proof of support and all that. What documents do they usually ask for? We want to be prepared with everything they might need so we can book an interview once we receive the letter from the interview. We are also getting ahead booking medical once we have our cade number.

Thanks for your support and good luck to everyone :-)

It will say "Ready" for a while. What you're looking for is it changing to "Administrative Processing" (or something) which is when they start processing it. After that it's "Issued" which means it's on its way! The Issued part is when people usually start booking tickets to fly out!

So I had my K1 interview in Belgium today. Was sooooo easy. Don't forget your tax returns with the I-134. You may need it. I was lucky I didn't.

- They asked me how I met my fiancée?
I told them we met in November after her brother introduced us.

- They asked when I asked her to marry?
I said 3 days before I had to go home in January (not the reasoning why), even though I proposed 4 months after we started talking and the first time we met in real life.

- What we did when I visited her in January in the U.S.?
No touristy things, we basically visited her family, friends and she showed me what she does every day.

- What my job is going to be when I arrive in the U.S.?
Software engineer

- What her dad's job is?

CFO (Because he signed the affidavit)

And then he said we looked happy and my K1 was approved.
