Just sent my I-129F

[Haltech007 10]

haha..yeah might be a glitch. Now it shows no consulate at all.

I went in to update it, and Armenia had returned. Ai-Ya! Now it SHOULD say Manila.

Event Date Service Center : Texas Service Center Transferred? California Service Center on 2016-11-02 Consulate : Manila, Philippines I-129F Sent : 2016-10-25

All looks good from this end now

I am not sure if you mean that your NOA1 was recieved in 12 days?

I feel silly because I text fast and made this mistake a couple times.

Correction: my case was approved in 22 days (I checked my case status online on October 28th and that's how I found out it was approved). 6 days after my case was approved, I received NOA2 in the mail (I actually just received NOA2 in the mail today).

Now that the timeline is fixed, how do I get it to show in my signature like yours?

[Haltech007 10]

How's this? Basically, I just copied yours and modified it. Is that OK?

Hey Hal, it looks great. I copied someone else's as well..haha. Good you changed the colors though.

Yup that is all done through the edit MY profile and then "signature" for others who are wondering.

Funny because I checked my VJ timeline and it went back to Armenia for me to..LOL..maybe web admin is having some fun with us.

About 2 hours ago I got my NOA 1 TEXT and Email. CSC here we come.

Good way to end the week.

Looks like I will be 1 or 2 days behind you through the USCIS/NVC process.

Hey I got my Noa1 already too. I am so glad you recieved it. Mines was transfered to the CSC too.

[Haltech007 10]

They just approved the 129f on Friday. I have not received the notice yet, but this was on the USCIS website:

On November 25, 2016, we approved your Form I-129F, Petition for Fiance(E),

Do I get excited now, or do I just need to keep on waiting?

[Sanymiliano 0]

In my opinion you should start gathering all the things that you are going to need for the interview. Of course there are somethings that are not going to be able gather right away, but just gather whatever you can.

Wow congrats on the approval.

YES you should be excited and happy.

Next step is to call NVC in about 14 days to see if they got your case file from USCIS

After that get your MNL number from NVC then your gal can do the DS-160 and pay the fee at BPI.

Gather CENOMAR,BC, NBI

Congrats again.

Jim

Oh and update your VJ timeline and your signature line if you want.

NOA 2

11/25/2016

[Haltech007 10]

I have a question about this though. I never received the text or email notifications or anything in the mail. Is this the NOA2, or something else?

[JimJesDuma 472]

Hello good morning well afternoon there in Florida. Green Cove. I used to live in Davie near Plantation. I'm guessing Green Cove is near Tampa? The whole "cove" thing.

I did get a text/email for NOA 2 on my last K-1 so it should be coming since you got one on your NOA 1.

Important thing and VERY important is the Paper Copy of NOA 2 . This will be needed at US Embassy in Manila so keep an eye out in your mail for that.

If you get junk mail go through it very carefully.

Congrats on your approval

Let me know when paper arrives.

Green Cove Springs is about a half hour south of Jacksonville and about a half hour west of St Augustine.

Is there a list of these acronyms somewhere? I am a bit lost on this one.

TGIF,

NBI = National Bureau of Investigation the PI version of FBI

CENOMAR = Certificate of no marriage. Please don't marry a married person..LOL

BC = Birth Certificate

CFO = Commission Filipinos Overseas = basically your GF gets grilled by some women who tell her she might get chopped up into pieces if she goes to USA.

They try to scare them and give them some notice of their rights when they get here. A sticker needs to be placed in her passport or PI immigration will not let her leave.
