Visa approved!!!

Frustrating, stressful and at times angering! At each step of the process I communicated with TSC, NVC and even the US Embassy in Manila. 

My wife is sleeping peacefully tonight and will reach Washington DC within 2 weeks! 

Fellow VJ members.. 344 days from PD to visa approved. No lawyer, no rfe. Just know the process is taking a couple months longer now. Keep your faith and remain proactive in this process. It will happen! Thank you God and best to all on this wild journey.... Happy 2018!

Bless you and many others to follow with approvals

Just called and spoke to Tier 2 Officer. Was told that it was not 60 days yet and he could not tell me my case status. BUT he did tell me a letter was sent out yesterday to me. He didn’t say if it was approval, denial, or RFE. I checked my case online and there’s no update. Anyone else get this kind of answer from Tier 2???

Just got an email and case was updated online. RFE. What kind of evidence do they usually require? I haven’t received the letter yet i would just like to start preparing.

You wouldn't know yet until you receive the RFE in the mail.

It took a week or so after my letter for my case to update online.

NVC has been closed for the past 2 days because of the Northeast blizzard. 😑

Got an update online: Request for additional evidence was mailed. 

 

Anyone know what evidence they usually ask for? Neither of us are previously married, I’m US citizen and wife is Moroccan we’re only 5 years apart.

Evidence of time spent together.

-passport stamps

-flight tickets 

- pictures

   A. Party with family

   B. You two doing "couple things"

 

Just make sure you get as much face time as possible.
