Thank you @Naes !! My Fiance called USCIS last week but they just told him " It's normal processing time..."   Definitely NO!! lol

We just hope we get approved in next week. Yeah, next NVC stage is also long waiting time... it should be imploved ASAP

U have to wait for the case number which will be generated by NVC.

The petitioner will receive a letter from NVC.

you can start filling up the DS160 but do not submit.you have an option to save.

Hello May filers,

Im a November filer, but I decided to post this question in here since most of you all have been approved

 

I am so paranoid about getting a RFE even though I feel like I've submitted enough evidence. But Im a little concerned about the copy of the messages I sent. I only sent our Facebook conversations because the app we currently use to text, call, and video chat wouldve printed off as a 1390 page document!!! So my lawyer and I decided to use the Facebook messages because it showed that we have had contact since we met...but I wonder if that's enough. Here is the evidence I sent. Can you all tell me if I should print out the 1300+ page chat history and have my lawyer send that in? Or do you all think this is enough:

 

-Copy of our chats from Facebook messenger (that was like 200+ pages)

-Notarized affidavits from my fiance and I about the nature and timeline of our relationship

-Notarized affidavits from my mother, my 2 best friends, his brother, his sister, and his best friend about how they know us and their support for our relationship

-Copies of receipts from when we bought each other gifts

-Copy of the receipt from the dinner boat he proposed to me on

-ALL the pictures of us from our trip together

-Copy of the emails we have sent to each other since we first met

-Copy of the letter he wrote me when he asked me to be his girlfriend

-Copy of our Facebook relationship status change (from "in a relationship" to "engaged") and how many of our friends liked it. 

-Copy of the plane ticket I bought to see him

-Copy of the stamp in my passport I got when I arrived in his country of residence

 

Is this enough? Or should I print off our 1300+ page chat history and have my lawyer submit it as a supplement?

 

Thanks in advance! And congratulations to you all! We are hoping to hear something by next April or May. 

Honestly, I think you have a big chance to get your NOA2 later than normal. No one is going to want to go through a packet so large, it's way too much.

Hey All,

 

I have been approved!!! Found the NOA2 approval letter in the mailbox today  It was approved on December 11th.

 

Online status did not update still shows received, oddly enough it did not show up in my informed delivery email notifications also. 

 

@Trinab80 Check your mailbox if you haven't yet. 

@Naes You were right it would just show up one day without updates.

Congratulations 😍

You can do the ds-160 whenever you want now. It should be valid for a year once submitted. We waited until NVC sent it to the consulate just to be sure though. Thats what most people will recommend. You only need the WAC number to complete it not the case number the NVC gives. Although i keep reading people say that

We paid $1500 or more i think. my Fiance paid for it. Excluding the fees for the forms.
