Sent in my 129f on April 24th, Just received the NOA today, but i have a question.

 

I put my fiance's child on the 129f but he isn't represented on the NOA, my fiance lives in Canada. Would her son normally be on the 129f or does that come later for his k-2 visa?

Congrats on your NOA1 and welcome to the waiting game.

 

Maybe you should ask about the child and petition in the general forum, since sure enough there will be more experienced people there that can help you. I personally am clueless, sorry.

But you have to :P We all share the same feeling and some days are easier than others, but we still have quite a long way ahead.

 

Unfortunately this week they are processing cases very slowly, it seems. There's still cases from November, around 300 from December, over 1500 for January, almost all February and March has over 4000 😱 So yep, I guess we'll have to wait till July before getting even excited.

 

Hah! Easier said than done.

 

Good luck :)

The child is never on the NOA's.

You will add them to the DS-160 when doing the visa application later down the road.

 

Congrats on the NOA 1

Did they cash your check or money order yet?

I filed on the 24th, they cashed the check and it cleared on the 27th and I got the NOA on the 2nd. I don't know if that's fast. But thanks for the update on the child.

Yay! Isn't it nice when it's still exciting and not nerve wrecking? :)

 

Our check was cashed the same day of our NOA1 notice date and we got the text/email next day, so yep, seems you are in.

 

I think you are technically a May filler, but more than welcome to stay here with us. We are not as chatty as March fillers (love you, guys!), but we are nice people anyway :P

 

Best of lucks for you.

Hello there! Indeed, it is better to be late than never. Welcome to the family and congrats for your NOA1. Everyone here is for sure hoping and been whining for the petitions to be processed and approved quickly. This waiting game is torturing our nerves..

That is so true. Me and my fiance has not so much knowledge with this nerve wrecking process and we're certified easy freaking brains especially me.. haha.. That is why, before my fiance filed the petition, he had to join a service just to guide us, to make sure we're doing things right and try hard to avoid RFEs. But then, even with the service and the confidence and trust that we did it right, I still can't help myself from freaking out. Sometimes, I would just considered it, I was just being so excited.. haha.. I have tried backing away a little bit nowadays here but ended up keep coming back.. haha.. Anyway, Godbless and good luck to all of us.. :-)
