Hi June Filers!!!!

 

Just wanted to say to everyone congratulations on starting the first leg of this journey!!!!! I'm a May Filer that just "lurks" at other monthly forums to see updates and learn of other experiences that others have.

 

Please don't forget to create your timeline and make sure to update it with the dates appropriate to your case as this will become helpful to not just yourself but others that filed within the same month. It also keeps the estimated dates as close as accurate as possible. If you see that your date has changed a day or two away or closer, no worries!!!  Just simply means that either other members are not updating their timelines accurately or that they are and things are staying as close to schedule as possible (with the USCIS, there's really never a schedule with them these days....lol)

 

If you guys have questions, don't be afraid to ask others within your forum or other forums. Right now, December/January filers are having their interview or scheduling their interviews. February/March are receiving NOA2's and heading over the NVC/Embassy stages.

 

Last piece of advice (which is even hard for me to follow at times)...........PATIENCE IS THE NAME OF THIS GAME!!!! If you have it, then make sure to keep it; but if not, make sure to get some or you will stress yourself out. Remember, this process is just a "process". The happy ending is only a few months away!

 

Good Luck to everyone on their journey!!!! :D

Good luck to you and your SO as well :):)

Hi guys!

Just received (via email) our I-797 with the WAC receipt number. Is this the NOA1?

 

Oh, 🤔 , I got an email with the WAC and it said that the I-797 would follow via mail in a week or so. But with the WAC you can register to track your case at USCIS. 😁

This is my first forum post on this site. I submitted my I-129F fiaqnce Visa on 06/14/17. I received the text/e-mail notification on 06/21/17. Waiting for the NOA1 now. This whole process of falling in love, having a long distance relationship, and filing a K-1 is quite the ordeal. I'm praying it all goes well.
