Welcome to Costco. I love you. (Different Mike Judge movie) 

I like money.

Its so nice to know that other couples are experiencing the same feeling we do. If I weren't a member of this group, I would be panicking and harrassing my fiancé to call USCIS for updates. I have been secretly reading all messages here too like most of the members. My fiancé told me not to read daily to focus my mind on other things and get busy. Waiting sucks but I find this thread very entertaining and informative. I visit this page like first thing in the morning every single day. Lol.  Thanks for the members' input, especially Jim!

 

We have a long way to go since our NOA1 date is 11/28, but with all the stories people share here, I am becoming optimistic that the day will come, maybe next month...hopefully!

 

Congratulations to all those who got their NOA2's.

Thanks for the info, but just to clarify that illegals is not a noun. You can say undocumented families/people/folks. 

 

Wishing you all NOA2s soon! 

And all this time I've been using "illegal alien"!

Hi MissCurious, welcome out from hiding. Fear not, join us here amongst the rest of us floating and longing souls. Dreaming of a brighter day waiting to unwrap the WONKA Chocolate bar to find the Golden NOA 2.

Anyway, this is not going anywhere soon. , So question to this community is, how many of you have already or planning to get prenuptial agreement? Of course, if you have any assets

Also, could someone check how many weeks they have been working on 10/31/16 files. That may  give us estimated  wait  time.

A pre-nuptial can be had even if you have no assets because we don't know what the future will hold. You could win the lottery on your 3rd wedding anniversary. $$$ Or start a business together that grows into a 6 figure company.

 

I have zero desire or plan to have a pre-nuptial but that is a personal decision that people need to make.

Great question and something for people to think about for sure.

So if you have assets it might not be a bad idea. 

But if the spouse can claim they were "pressured" into signing it in a divorce, then it can go out the window in court, defaulting to whatever the divorce law is in your state. 

It's best to get one done, if one is to be done, well well ahead of the nuptials. Like a year ahead.

That reduces the "I was pressured into signing it." problem.

But that doesn't work too well on a 90 day K1 visa for most.

And an immigrant spouse can more easily make an "I was pressured" argument. In many cases they could also claim a language barrier prevented them from understanding what they signed.

 

I do not intend to do one, personally.

 

Note: I am not a lawyer. So take my comment for what it's worth.

Hi Art786, you can see from my signature line if it isn't hidden from view that Haltch007 had an NOA 1 of November 1st and his NOA 2 was November 24 so they have been working on 10/31 cases since at least 11/24.

His was approved in 23 days and shortly after that CSC found something else to do to pass the time.

 

I checked the USCIS app an hour or so ago 7:35pm PST and there were only 7 approvals for 10/31. Including one right next to my WAC #. 

So close...well maybe a few more have come through.

4 Approved Applications Today. Perhaps some are here on this forum.
