agreed, and the last group of 15 NVC files took avg. 53 days to arrive and stayed about a week before leaving....

I can't see any of this improving anytime soon with the TPS/DACA headlines everyday. The government right now likes that immigration is moving at a glacial pace and that somehow our suffering will prove our future spouse is genuine. It's sick.

A deterrent or a punishment? I often wonder.

[Sabi486 44]

we had our RFE in the mailbox today. 

 

"...Evidence of the beneficiary's intent may be a statement from the beneficiary, the couple wedding preparations or other evidence that clearly establishes her intent to marry"

 

i think its kinda silly that they wanna have more that i am intent to marry him... 

 

we sent a letter which we both signed, pictures, flighttickets etc. with the application. but well... 

 

actally nothing easier than that. we will send all our wedding contracts with the location, dj, cake, caterer etc. and a statement from me that im looking forward of having a life and growing a family with him, also that im getting ready to move as soon as i can.. 

 

i hope all that will satisfy them

My exact reaction

[Matt&Savannah 67]

I can't help but feel like we are being punished/tested for falling in love with our fiances.

 

These days, how easy is it to navigate the world, both physically and online? So they have to expect people of different nationalities to meet and want marry each other. It feels like it should be a basic human right to be able to do so without such hardship. I understand there needs to be a vetting process but keeping people in the dark for this amount of time is pure cruelty. When we signed up for this process we knew the time frame involved (or at least we knew what others had experienced). Whilst it seemed like a hurdle we never imagined it would drag on for this long.

 

@SM2017 mentioned earlier that they are nervous about seeing their fiance after such a long time. I feel exactly the same. My heart has never stopped loving Savannah but something in my head has forgotten how it is to physically be around her. Nobody has the right to make me feel that way.

 

I've decided I'm not going to simply wait anymore. I'm not going to live, constantly waiting for approval that should have come a month ago and may not be for months to come. I'm jacking my job in and will just visit America for 3 months at a time until this is all over. Sure, it may delay the whole process with me not being in England. I dont care. Honestly I'd rather feel like I'm in some way in charge of my life rather than some uncommunicative government agency on a go slow.

A letter on intent from each party is already a requirement.  Did you do a single letter for both of you?

[AZSunshine78 437]

FOR THOSE WHO KNOW THEIR NOA2 SHIP DATE TO NVC

 

could you please @ me?

 

Im looking for trends on when they send their shipments because I do know they send in bulk.

 

So based on when USCIS told you it was sent and based on when NVC said it should be there, maybe we can determine a rough estimate for when they ship?..

 

ie: approvals 1st through 14th get shipped on the 15th and 15th to the end of the month get shipped the 1st of the following month...

no we didnt. it was one letter, written from his side and we both signed it. 

 

do you think its enough to send all the contracts and a small text from me now?

or should i write a long one from the beginning on? 

[George & Roth 1,485]

@Sabi486

 

It says “statement from the beneficiary “

 

You didn’t make a statement but rather signed his.

 

Make your own and sign it.

You should just send what they ask for. No more no less. I would have the beneficiary write a letter of intent and send that ASAP. Our petition included 2 letters. One from me with my intent to marry Rose and one from Rose with her intent to marry me.

it does not have to be anything elaborate we basically said said we were able and would to be married within 90 days of POE.  basically the same letter from each of us other than changing the locations names on each form, and we were approved.

Also, The letter can be done on computer but the signature has to be a wet one.. That's what I've heard and what we did. One letter from him, one from me that I mailed him.

The first 5 hours of seeing my fiancé I asked "who are you" continuously..

 

not even kidding here.

 

cause it felt weird yet familiar and because I got used to his microphone voice his real voice didn't click for a while...

 

so we are walking and im staring into his face on the road (which is a really weird scene because I am barely 5feet and he is 6++) and me asking while holding hands "who are you"

 

never doing this long distance anything ever again! I'm pretty sure I'll go to his work place and just sit in the corner the first a few weeks after moving there... just to be sure that I am really there.
