 We are getting married on the beach that is 1 hr east of Orlando (been tossing around the idea of west coast beach in FL, but... seems like it would be more hassle and a bit further away, but I love the sunsets on the ocean!!) and room is in Orlando... but, not going to Disney hehe Have not made plans with a service/officiant yet, because I want to wait for the NOA2 before I do that since most depostis are not refundable from what I have seen. But, I do have everything else planned. We are hoping for Dec 12th to be our big day and I don't see it being a problem finding one of the many services/officiants to be available on a Tues... so, not in a rush to actually set that with someone.

Nice. We got engaged in Key West at a beach during sunset and stayed in Orlando for 4 days at a Universal resort prior to that. A few weeks later I had to fly out to St Pete's for work and she came a long then, too. You will love the Florida Beaches!

Funny how much we all have in common.  Coco Beach is one of my favorites...... I love the area, not to pricey, lots of fun things to do there and it's just East of Orlando a bit.  As far as a sunrise or sunset wedding, as I explained to my F, there is nothing like the fire in the sky as a sunrise develops over the Atlantic at first light.  Something synonymous about a wedding and the beginning of the day We plan on a sunrise wedding on the beach, probably Hollywood Beach because it's remoteness and yet ease of getting guests there.  Nearby, our reception in a hotel with breakfast for guests.  We plan to honeymoon in Key West, but we probably will avoid the Duval Crawl LOL but we'll hit all the bars for the food and music.  Neither of us drinks much, but Key West is a truly fun place!

Hey all! Haven't posted in a while. Just wanted to say we got our NOA2! I got back yesterday afternoon from seeing Paul in the Philippines and there it was in my mailbox! We were on the phone and I dug through a pile of mail and I didn't see anything.. Started to get disappointed, and then there it was! The envelope said department of homeland security. I dropped all if mail and my luggage on the sidewalk! Ahhhh we are so excited! Finally! Our NOA1 notice date was 04-06. NOA2 notice date 08-03.

Good luck all!

CONGRATS!!!    Nice Surprise to find - a welcome home gift!

Hey my whiners!!! So excited we're all getting closer and closer each day! My case still shows just as "AT NVC". I thought it usually gets sent to the embassy within a day or two? How was it for you guys?

 

P.S. Do I need to do anything at this point? It gives you the steps under the "AT NVC" notification but I read here that we don't do that?

After lots of prayer and nail bitting, my fiancé checked the informed delivery this morning and thank GOD, we got our golden letter!!! I can just barely make out the words "the above petition has been APPROVED"! I wont know the actual date issued until she gets it in her hands but I do know that today is 129 days since NOA1 and exactly 100 days out until our set wedding date in Nov. It's a good day!  

 

Sent March 24th

Received March 28th

NOA1 April 3rd

 

Still praying for all still waiting! Believe me, I know how exciting but still disappointing it is to watch every approval come in other than your own. I have a feeling it won't be for much longer. Just keep the faith. It's coming.

Give it a day or two and it will show in transit and another day it will be ready. That wont be too long. Yesterday i saw my case in transit and this afternoon i saw it Ready. And yes we dont do the 6 steps.

Thank you everyone 😣 Is this really okay? The employer's address didn't match at all.. His Certificate of Employment, his W2 and bank statements and even paystubs we're all the same.. Same company name, and address.. Only his G325A and I-134 has different name and different address😭 

 

I'm sorry everyone for panicking. 😭  I feel a little better after reading your comments..  

I am in the exact same situation as you.  Based out of Louisville, KY, I work for this company in Ohio and then Florida.  

I am not a bit worried about this.  W2, 1040's, Bank Statements, Pay Stubs, and Tax Transcripts all have one purpose - to verify income.  They don't care if addresses match.  Very common in US

I think it depends in the country of the beneficiary. Maybe (just maybe) they're waiting for another case to transfer to the consulate and theyll send it together with yours. Philippines have a lot of K1 visa cases so maybe it doesnt take that long to fill their quota. Im sure it will be soon.

We finally got around to reading the affidivat of support cant you believe it.. i bet most people have theirs done already haha. I just wanted to know if yoi can help us. We are confused by a few of the questions.  (If you dont mind) 

 

Question 1:

Income and asset information

5. Value of my other personal property - do you include realestate ..because the next section says value of realestate so do you just put personal preoperty such as vehcile etc or vehicle plus house etc and than break out the real estate in #8a.

 

Question 2:

Same section :value of stocks and bonds:does this include 401k and pension?

 

Question 3:

Number 22a asked if you previously submitted an affidavit of support our answer was NO but than it goes to 26a ..which says"i have submitted a visa petition to uscis on behalf of the following person" is this the i-129f petition ?if so i am assuming this is where the beneficiaries name goes?

 

Question 4:

Number 38

"I intend or dont intend to make specific contributions to the support of the person named -beneficiary" 

Do you have to yes you intend to? I mean i will be living there with him in his house but he isnt giving an allowance or anything... so we are a little confused by this. We dont want to say no and get rejected we just dont know if specifics right now. And eventually ill get a job etc. 

 

Another concern i had was that my fiance has a rental unit 3 bedroom 2 bath he is currently renovating which put some debt in his name..as would any major renovation... do you think this would impact us from being approved? He makes a healthy income and with rental income much more but the rental was fully gutted so there is some substantial debt from that but its going to be paid with the rental income that comes in... just curious...

 

Thank you so much. I know i ask alot of questions.. but we dont want to mess any of this up! 

I just wanted to let you know that when I was doing the I-129f I found videos on youtube, so you could probably find videos on this form there too. There are lots of videos where people go through each line and they can be REALLY helpful =)

Day 150.

 

Nothing in informed delivery today but junk mail.

 

Nothing back from the senator's office so far. Today marks one week since I send in the privacy release and a copy of NOA1.

 

Five months and counting. I really thought something might happen this week.

Same with us. Day 150 but don't despair there are still 2 mail days this week.  

Ok, so, don't forget that if it gets approved this week... you may not get snail mail till next week!  Doesn't mean it's over yet! =) 
I am hoping to hear something next week hehe
