March 2018 I-129f Filers

[CMH678 11]

Could someone please tell me what to do in order to receive text/email from the USCIS?

Do they automatically use the information provided on the I-129F Form?

 

Thank you so much and best wishes.

There was a form we submitted with our K-1 packet to get email updates. I believe if you sign up on the USCIS website you can also opt into alerts there.

So I received an e-mail notification that our RFE paperwork was received yesterday, 10/3/18! So that didn't take too long to get there. Now hopefully this goes quickly to hear back from them and get an approval

Approved!! 

Noa1 old site: March 5

Noa1 new site: March 9 

Noa2: October 2 

 

211 days! I went to sleep last night trying to remind myself not to lose hope, and woke up to THE email! I signed up for text notifications but I only received an email stating there was action taken on my case, followed the sign in link to the new site where it said approved. Old site not updated. 

 

Good luck everyone.

hello guys :)

 

got my NOA2 on Sept 10th,

and today my fiancé got the case number via his e-mail just now.

i can officially make appointments for my physical examination, finally. Phew.

Thanks to you guys on VJ, we already know that the process to next step will take about 2-6 weeks,

so we didn't call to get our number.

I'm thinking things are moving pretty fast.

Hope to hear bunch of good news from all of you soon!

Congrats! That's awesome. So once you received your NOA2 did you submit more paperwork to the NVC?  Like affadavit of supprt, etc. Or is that all in these next steps since you just now received your case number?

So now do you have to get all that extra paperwork together for your next step like the affadivit of support? Or what exactly happens next?

From what I know so far, all the documents my fiancé & I need to provide will be listed on P3, which I have not received yet. And yes I have already gathered all the docs from my fiancé and I have translated my own docs too. But with the case number I heard you can start filling our DS 160 form and apply for medical examination. So, just in case I don't have the right information, I'll have to ask other ppl who have already been through the process  Now I have to take another passport pictures since it has past 6 months from my last one I provided when sending petition, and start gathering more evidences of our relationship just in case they ask during my interview

Awesome-- well you will be in my thoughts and prayers for these next steps. I hope everything goes really smoothly and quickly. Thanks for all the info. I just like to know what will be in my future in terms of the next steps. There's just so many little things and steps to this process it seems so I get confused sometimes.

Hey guys we got an RFE 😕 The new website said that it was mailed on October 2nd, but the website was updated at about 4 AM. How long does it take for them to mail it? I’m desperate to see what they need 😫

Hey there! I got an RFE as well. Try not to worry about it. I believe mine took about 4 or 5 days to receive it in the mail. The most it should take is a week. Based on where you live. But I'm guessing it will only be a few days. Just focus on when you receive it how you can just take care of whatever it is right away-- mail it back-- and soon enough it will be received by the USCIS and hopefully it only takes a couple weeks to get an approval. Nothing you can do now but atleast we have the opportunity to fix it. The new administration has changed that where people now will just be flat out denied if made mistakes, no RFE anymore. So just be happy you get that instead of having to start all over, although I know its frustrating. It was really hard for me at first too to know I received the RFE.
