Hi @Naes

 

I was searching around a bit for you when I read this.  Not sure if this is of any help to you?  I cut and past from an immigration web site

 

"Once you receive approval of your I-129F fiance visa petition, it will be good for four months. (The exact date it expires will be shown on the approval notice that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) sends you.) 

Within that four-month  time period, the National Visa Center (NVC) will communicate with your overseas fiance, asking him to fill out an online form, get a medical exam done, pay fees, and take other steps to  get ready for a visa interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate in Japan. 

Unlike before, however, he isn't at the mercy of the U.S. consulate when it comes to scheduling. As of 2014, fiance visa applicants must schedule their own visa interviews. So if it helps matters,  he could make the appointment fairly late within that four-month window. 

If the case gets delayed after that, but your fiance has been actively pursuing it, the consulate has the power to extend the four-month deadline."

 

Also looked it up on an old visa journey post and here is a link to "extend I129F" doc

I will keep looking for you.  What a shitty predicament to be in now you have got this far.  But I'm sure things will work out - they have to! You are the Visa Journey angel xxx

Thank you thank you thank you!!!! 😭

 

this made me relax a bit already!!!! I think I was running out of energy to even research at the moment! Thank youuuu

Yikes! Still so many June bugs? This is just crazy. They really need to get their act together at USCIS and get these people their approvals ASAP. No one should have to be at 300+ days  😤😱😡

Our petition is "READY" but only 2 derivatives show up.  We have the K-1 and two K-2s.  Is there one missing or are both K-2s listed together?

Love you guys!!

 

seriously can’t  explain how much this made me feel better. I don’t think I’ll be able to join march topic with you.

 

but well one myth went down! Nope simplicity of the case doesn’t mean anything.. I even double asked my fiancé “are you sure you never had trouble” well... he joined navy at the age of 19 and had honorable discharge so.... he just looked at me puzzled... 

 

my problem is my job kinda put me in a place where I have to give a definite answer by first week of May if I’m staying longer or not... cause I need to go to France for 3 months...so if I don’t get it in 2 weeks I’ll either have to somehow extend the noa2 validity or just cancel this and get married and restart everything. 

 

Does anyone know know if I can extend for personal reasons?

 

PS_ @LizM girl it’s really not smoking 🤣🤣🤣 in japan they show exhaustion like in animes by showing their soul is running out of their body....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 promise no bong smoking happening... but yep all kinds of stress related health issues started to show up... cause they signed me up for a 4000$ worth training....and I cant even give them a definite answer....

Once you get approval and your file is sent to your Embassy you have one year to COMPLETE the process or your application goes DEAD and you will have start over and prepare yourself to explain to the CO why you let your first application go dormant. Make your plans accordingly.  Good luck.

Hi. After 7 months, just got our noa2 in the mail today  Im excited to be part of this group now. So noa2 is 03/21. And my embassy will be Montreal.One of the vj’ers had their file sent electronically. Does it mean Montreal is an embassy who wants them electronically? 

I am in the same boat as you! I am so curious about Montreal dates. Also curious..are you in QC or somewhere else? I am in Alberta and the medical is going to be tricky!!
