I-129F April 2016 Filers

[Keepchill 19]

Congrats to all who were approved!!

Just a question...we received our NOA2 June 21. I just filled out the DS-160 form. Is it a good idea to wait until our application reaches the consulate before printing off the confirmation page?

We are trying to have everything ready to go when our application reaches the US consulate in Montreal. Can anyone provide a good list of steps from hereon out?

Any other Canadians going through Montreal?

I'll be going through Montreal! Just waiting for our paper copy of the NOA2 in the mail, I'm already overwhelmed I don't even know where to start!

Hi All,

I'm new on VJ, just signed up after reading this amazing thread. I filed the K-1 in April and still waiting for NOA2. Reading from everyone here has helped give me reassurance during this whole waiting process.

That's great, glad I have a fellow Canadian going through it at the same time! Hopefully we can help each other out at each step

Hi Lambda8, Welcome!

I noticed that we have the same date as to when you sent your i-129f. Is 04/25 the day you received you hard copy of NOA1? Or the receipt date listed on your NOA1? Anyway, i'm still waiting for the NOA2, too. We're getting closer.

Those who have received NOA2's...when will you start contacting the NVC to see if they've received your application?

Check as DS160 i think replaced most forms

Hey!

I have no idea why this could be happening but just trying to find the reason:

- are the fees paid yet?

- have you received packet 3?

I found this about the Casablanca embassy, maybe it will help!

http://www.visajourney.com/consulates/index.php?ctry=Morocco&cty=Casablanca

Good luck!

Packet 3 can be obtained by emailing the consulate.

BEWARE: The forms DS-156 and DS-157 sent in packet 3 are older versions of what is available online. To be on the safe side, fill out what the consulate sends you. They've been known to reject the newer versions of the forms.

1. Appointment letter with interview date.

1. The DS-156 (2 copies)

2. DS-156K for K1 visa (not used for K3)....

3. DS-157

4. DS-230 Part I

5. Medical Exam instructions/list of doctors

6. An instruction sheet explaining that the applicant needs the following for the interview:

- passport (valid at least 6 mos. beyond visa issuance)

- birth certificate

- police certificate

- court record certificate/Segel Adli (obtained from town/city of birth)

- two color photographs (full face, 2 inches square or 5x5 cm)

- any marriage/death/divorce decrees

- if not married, a certificate of singlehood/Shahadat Al3ozoba

- medical exam results (the doctor's office sends this directly to the consulate)

- evidence of relationship (pictures, letters, e-mails, call history, chat history, etc.)

- certified translations of any docs not in English

- an instruction sheet that asks for the signature of the applicant (although they don't take it when you/your fiance(e) go to the interview)

- I-134 (K1 specific) or the I-864 Affidavit of Support and supporting documents

-Bring accurate processing fee by checking the u.s consulate in morocco's webpage: http://morocco.usembassy.gov/visas/schedule-of-fees.html

Take a few extra hundred Dh as the exchange rate has been fluctuating considerably recently. Or,exchange DH for USD beforehand so you have the correct amount.

Those who have received NOA2's...when will you start contacting the NVC to see if they've received your application?

I will start calling exactly after 2 weeks and then every two days. If it goes over 4 weeks I will call every day... lol

Ok RFE Club what were your RF's about and how long was the turnaround time if it's been processed.

We havent received our hard copy for our RFE yet since we are overseas...but today we called the customer service and they transefered us to the immigration service officer and she said she could pull up the info but unfortunately she couldnt see it because it wasnt scanned yet..smh.. What is your RFE about?
